Fantastic Greek Village Family Holiday
This property was ideal for our 2 adult families.
We had an amazing warm welcome and several checks by the owner to see if we required anything. We didn’t as the home was very well appointed.
We were able to cook at home if we wanted to and had lots of suggestions of places to go and visit. The host and team ver very helpful at all times.
Our stay was wonderful and can not fault. Fantastic!!

Wunderschöne Villa mit mega Blick
Die wunderschöne Villa liegt auf einem mega Grundstück mit direktem Blick auf das Meer.
Die Zimmer sind modern eingerichtet und großzügig geschnitten.
Die Sonnenliegen sind von hoher Qualität und der Pool perfekt für eine Erfrischung.
Das großzügige Koch-/Ess-/ Wohnzimmer lädt zum gemeinsamen Kochen & Essen ein. Alle benötigten Küchen-Geräte sind vorhanden.
Unser Host Georgi war super nett und stand uns mit Rat & Tat zur Seite, wenn wir Hilfe benötigt haben.
Die Lage der Villa ist super (wenn auch der Weg manchmal abenteuerlich ist ;)), man hat eine super Anbindung in den Osten (Kalyves, Chania, Balos etc), als auch in die Mitte Kretas (Rethymon) oder in den Süden Richtung Sfakia.
Diese Villa kann kann man nur empfehlen, wir wollen auf alle Fälle wieder kommen!
