We loved our stay in Crete and not only for the natural and artistic beauties the island has to offer. Indeed Villa Giorgio made our stay comfortable and relaxing. Our two daughters of 9 and 7 years of age, loved jumping in the pool at the end of a day spent visiting or at the beach. Anastasia's in law who live next door, literally spoiled us with a lot of delicious home made food and desserts. Almost every day there was a surprise waiting for us! Really nice! Anastasia and her husband Mike were so lovely to invite us over for dinner one evening on occasion of a nearby village feast. This gave us the opportunity to dive in the Greek and Cretan culture a bit more by talking with the locals. Everything from arrival to departure was perfect and we knew we could rely on Anastasia for anything we needed and that's reassuring when you are abroad and don't speak the local language. We definitely recommend this property to anyone wanting to enjoy the quietness of the country side but at 5 minutes drive from Rethymno where you can find plenty of things to do at night.
We will come back (maybe not too soon since there are many other places we want to visit also) for sure and also Anastasia and Mike are really nice people that I would love to stay in touch with.
Thank you Anastasia and Mike for being such great hosts and a big kiss to Georgios from my girls! All the best, Vilma and Leonardo
