We spent really wonderful vacation time - great house, very useful and lovely pool were in active use for early morning refresh and through the day. We had 10 persons there and there was enough space for everyone. Four kids managed to sleep in one bedroom, they as well liked very much own charmy balcony in second floor for games, cardplays and little music listenings. For us a large balcony in first floor with pool view was a main favorite place to spend time - eating, playing, talking and making a plans for next days. Really great! Althought first there was little afraid about a place - away from a costal line and a seaview but it's absolutely no problem, nice mountain view and fresh wind were a good company there. As well good connections to south side beaches makes it easy to decide to travel there. Beaches there are really nice. Car is neccessary as house is about 8km away from Rethymnon.
Houseowner Nikos were very friendly, everything we asked was arranged. As well he did keep good care about pool and garden. By the way - all the staff grew in garden was free to use for guests. Once we came in first day, Nikos meet us, introduce the house and make our stay comfortable from first moment. There was little welcome package waiting for us - some jam's, honey, wine from own winery and a bottle of good raki. Thanks!
Bedlinens were changed and house cleaned twice per week.
As a nice surprise Nikos invited us to nice dinner given by her mom. Theyr cosy homeplace were somewhere in higher mountain. Scary way to drive but nice! Dinner was delicious and in discussions we get little closer to greece life. We really enjoy this evening!
Behind the house is large grilling area. That was good option between the tavernas - we prepared a fresh fish and some meet for several times and spent nice time in large diningarea. I suggest a property for family holiday and a good base for daytrips around there! Finally everything was excellent!
