Paris’ villa is truly an exotic locale that offers spectacular vistas and relaxing amenities. The villa is close enough to town but far enough away to make one feel that they are in a secluded retreat. As a host, Paris was extremely accommodating and made suggestions for sites to visit in Crete; he was able a to recommend restaurants, excursions, and taxi companies with ease. The pool is an absolute treat because it is clean, deep enough for a plunge in the morning or evening, and comfortable to sit around and socialize.
One tip for travelers: know that it might take some time to order a taxi into Chania from the local cab company, particularly on weekend evenings. There are few taxi companies in this area and you might have challenges getting through to order at your desired time. Again, this was a luxury problem and in no way a deterrent from renting this exquisite property.
