We were a group of 6 adults and 3 small children. We really enjoyed our stay at Nikos villa. There was more than enough room for all of us. Nikos provided us with 3 baby cots and we even had separate rooms for all the children. The pool was big and also the playground was a big hit for the children. Several hours were also spent in the play room! We were allowed to eat fruit directly from the garden (water melon, fikons etc.) which was a nice addition. Most of the evenings us adults spent grilling and sipping wine outside.
Rethymnon old town was a 10 min car drive from us so pretty close. A number of small tavernas and supermarkets were even closer by (a few minutes' drive). The old town was filled with places to eat right down by the ocean and many of the restaurants have playrooms for the children which one really appreciates. Also, all the staff seem really child friendly.
We did not have much contact with Nikos unfortunately but evertything at the villa worked as promised and the one time we wanted to ask Nikos something, he was helpful and quick in his answer.
All in all, a very enjoyable experience and would certainly recommend for both families and adult groups as well.
