The villa and gardens were beautiful, maintained to a very high standard and very clean. The location was great in the hills above Rethymno, only just over a five minute drive to the old town, a car is useful although there always lots of taxis around too. Kostas & Roula were exceptional hosts, we have never been made to feel so welcome in a villa rental before, very friendly and kind. The concierge service provided by Etouri was exceptional, nothing was too much trouble for Kostas and his team. Would highly recommend.
