First I will say the villa is really well equipped and comfortable. We had a nice stay but a few things were not as we were expecting. The outdoor patio although nice is right in the side of the road so not a lot of privacy. The area has amazing views, but because it is so high on the hill and on the main road it is REALLY windy. So much so that the BBQ could not stay lit, it was hard to sit in the loungers as no shelter and it kept us awake most of the night. We were also woken early by a Rooster each morning. Although the villa was clean, one off putting thing to us was a bad smell of stale cigarettes when we arrived. It could be user error but the coffee machine took 40 minutes to brew half a pot so we picked up two small French Press at the store and used these the rest of the stay, they are still in the kitchen. Lastly, the location is about 25 min drive from a grocery store or restaurant. Overall I was hoping for a tranquil four days to end our two weeks in Crete and although we did enjoy our stay the villa was not the relaxing place I was counting on.
