We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The outside space was absolutely beautiful, as was the village it was located in. It felt very special and we couldn’t wait to get back everyday. The pool and loungers were where we spent most of our days.
Argyris was an excellent host, and we loved meeting Maria who gave us such a warm welcome. We had a little trouble with the kettle which was fixed straight away.
The only recommendation we would have which would have improved our stay was the mattress—they are quite hard. But overall we have absolutely no complaints and couldn’t recommend this highly enough. Great value for money—something we can say confidently as we have visited Crete a number of times before.
We would recommend visiting the bakery in the Arkadi village just next to the smaller village where the Villa Myrini is. There are two Tavernas in the village-we wouldn’t advise going to Romeo and Juliet for the food, but the other taverna is great, especially every Thursday when they have live music and dancing.
Baja Beach and Lake Kournas are nice day trips as well as some of the beaches on the South Island. We loved going into Rethymnon of an evening and had a great 50’ pizza on the harbour. Would also recommend the little gyros place in Arkadi for lunch.
