This villa is very spacious, the pool is excellent, and there is a great, expansive view of the countryside and the ocean (5 km away). The village is small but has a nice cafe and an excellent restaurant, and there are markets, etc. just down the hill, a 5 min. drive. The villa is well located (you need a car), because it was a base for trips not just to Rethymno but also Chania, Heraklion, and a number of southern beaches. The hosts were responsive to our needs. A very good stay.
