Maximos' place is AMAZING! Like other's have said, the house is even better than it looks in photos. Its beautifully and tastefully decorated. It's very big, with two bedrooms and one bath on the top level and two bedrooms and two attached baths on the bottom level. There are living spaces on both levels, and a full kitchen on the top level. There is also a small kitchen at the bottom with pretty much all you'd need. We didn't end up using the hot tub, but the balcony at the top, where the hot tub is situated also has a big dining table and BBQ. We sat there pretty much everyday for breakfast. The views are spectacular. The village of Spili is charming. Lots of small pathways to walk around, and there are a few restaurants, cafes, and shops as well. Spili is about 30 mins by car from Rethymno, and 1.5 hour to both Chania and Heraklion. We were 6 adults and rented a large van to get to these places. There is a large car park in the middle of the town where we were able to park our car everyday. It is only a short walk/climb from there to the house. Finally, I cannot say enough good things about Maximos. He was very responsive to all our messages. He went out of his way to make sure we got into the house and were settled in, even though that meant he had to meet us at almost midnight on the day we got there. To add to all the lovely touches, his wife had made a huge pan of the most delicious moussaka for us, as well as stuffed vegetables, and fresh bread. It was very kind and was the perfect end to our very long day! All in all, I cannot recommend Maximos' house enough!
