Jannis was the perfect host on our visit to Crete. He was there to greet us on arrival and was very quick to respond to any questions we had before and during our visit. The villa was lovely and as two families there was plenty of room for the adults and two children. The pool area was stunning and exactly like the photos. The children really enjoyed playing in the pool and a lovely touch was Jannis bringing ice creams and treats for the adults mid-week too. The villa is quite remote in the middle of a valley which did not bother us but you definitely need to hire a car to get around. The villa was well equipped with all the essentials you would need for cooking and the BBQ area was also an added bonus. The local shops were quite expensive for essentials so would recommend a trip to the larger supermarkets in Chania or Rethymo to stock up on food if you plan to cook at the villa. We visit Sfakia and Francostello (the beach with the castle) and both were beautiful and around a 40 minute drive. Chania and Rethymno were also around an hours drive away and really worth a visit if you want to venture out. You won't be disappointed if you stay here and Jannis made us very welcome and we couldn't have asked for a better host. We hope to be back again on our next visit to Crete!
