I have to start with the fact that our vacation up until we arrived in Crete was far from the honeymoon we dreamt (more that one flight cancelled, hotel that did not match our expectations, not to mention the lost money). So it's understandable that I was expecting the worst. I was wrong.
Emmanuel and Yannis were great in providing us all the necessary information to reach Villa Olive. More than that we received a guide with suggestions like places we could visit, beaches, restaurants, etc that were helpful. During our stay they were kind enough to check if everything was ok.
When we arrived we waited for Mr. Stamatis in Tavronitis to show us the way to Villa Olive. The house is on a side of a hill and the views are breathtaking. It's a perfect place for enjoying nature, "away from the madding crowd ". I loved it instantly.
The house had everything one needs and it was very clean. Mr. Stamatis was
very thoughtful and left us something for breakfast and fruits. The raki was present of course :), home made and very good.
We had a very good time and we definitely recommend Villa Olive and more so the olive orchard surrounding the house :).
PS for Mr. Stamatis's father: A kind face breaks the language barrier. Although we did felt sorry we did not speak Greek, we would have loved to here some stories about Crete.
