The villa, garden and pool are all beautiful and true to the pictures. The sea and Rethymno view from the villa is also very nice.
The hosts were very nice and welcoming, they live right next door to the villa but we had total privacy and peace. They were on hand to give recommendations, shared some of their delicious food and gave us parting gifts of some local produce.
A car is necessary for this villa, nothing is walking distance, there’s is a good bakery close by but it’s best to drive there.
