Absolute perfection!
Manolis’s Villa located in the pictures Amari valley. The road to Amari village is a great experience; sometimes we felt like a travel through time as well. The myths and legends of Crete were echoing through the little streets of the village and the pink peaks of Mount Ida at sunset.
At late June, the weather was perfect, not too warm, balmy nights… the gentle “music” of nearby sheep bells sneaked through our window.
We enjoyed to just stay and relaxing at the villa or the short drives to Rethymno or other places. A 10 minutes drive to a nearby town to groceries or fuel is all we needed. The house was well equipped with everything, including the needs of small children. The “Welcome” pack of goods was well and beyond of what we could wish for reflecting the truely amazing hospitality of Manolis and Mrs. Rumy.
Manolis was a perfect host, always available if needed, providing us with a lot of information and great stories. Mrs. Rumy is also truely amazing with her friendly presence and finger-licking good food. Everything we ordered was just delicious and generous in size…
Cannot find proper words to praise Manolis, Mrs. Rumy… and the whole experience!
