We had a lovely stay in Irini's Villa there is a little shop in the village of Adele, it is only a 15 minute drive from the Villa to Rethymno where there are plenty of places to eat and a beach. There are a couple of good supermarkets including a Lidl nearby.
Irini is very welcoming and if there is anything you need to ask she will do her best to help or advise.
The villa has lots of lovely character, with old and modern touches to it. It is well equipped and the beds are very comfortable and clean. I would not recommend this villa if you planning to come with a party of couples as the only storage area is upstairs in one of the bedrooms which you can only access from the outside stairs.
Lovely for a family with plenty of garden space which there are Orange, pomegranate, Lime and walnut trees. There is also a large brick built BBQ.
The pool is a good size and is a very relaxing area.
Places we enjoyed for food Nostos - Rethymno (along the beach road)
Zorba's Pigli traditional Cretan
We also booked a a tour through Safari Club Crete which i would definitely recommend.
