What a beautiful property! Communication with VanGos was excellent and it was wonderful to be escorted to the property and to find fruit , veg, milk, eggs and bread on arrival-a really warm welcome. We loved the choice of outdoor spaces, giving us options for outdoor eating and places to relax, read a book, listen to music... The jacuzzi was a real added bonus and we definitely made the most of it. Whilst the location does mean you will need a car, the fact that it is cooler the in the evening was a welcome respite from the heat down on the coast. The town of Rethymno is only a half hour drive at most and we really loved exploring the port and old town. So many lovely things to do nearby and VanGos was the ultimate host, checking the pools regularly and making excellent recommendations for places to visit and eat, not least the excellent Taverna Goules just a few kms away in Goulediana- we went 4 times in 2 weeks! VanGos was always courteous and warm and we were very touched by the anniversary cake he bought for us for our 20th. Truly a wonderful holiday.
