We enjoyed a truly restful week in this delightful villa. A modern and clean place to relax, with car hire a necessity. Evina, our host, was supremely helpful and a friendly source of useful, local knowledge. Total 5-star recommendation!
We absolutely loved our stay here! The villa was sparkling clean and so modern — it honestly felt brand new. Walking in to find snacks, fresh fruit, and cold drinks waiting for us was such a treat. The host was also amazing, checking in over text with tips about local events, which made the whole experience feel really personal and welcoming. We’d come back in a heartbeat
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Der großzügige Garten und die vielen Sitzplätze haben uns besonders gefallen. Unkomplizierter und sehr netter Kontakt zu den Vermietern.

Tolle Lage, schöner Pool. Bei FeWo wird ein freistehendes Haus angezeigt, mittlerweile stehen rechts und links auch Häuser. Leider gab es keinen wirklichen Check in. Die Schlüssel wurden von einer Reinigungskraft übergeben. Eine Kommunikation in Englisch oder Deutsch war nicht möglich. Kontakt mit der Gastgeberin nur über WhatsApp. Das Haus war nicht richtig geputzt, tgl. Ameisen in der Küche, der Herd ging zunächst nicht (Sicherung war draußen). Duschköofe verkalkt. Positiv: Auf Anfrage wurde umgehend reagiert. Das Haus wurde nochmals gereinigt. Beim Stromausfall kam umgehend ein Elektriker. Positiv war u.a. Empfehlungen zum Essen. Es waren bei Ankunft bereits verschiedene Lebensmittel eingekauft, lokale Produkte. Tgl. wurde der Pool gereinigt. Zweite Hausreinigung während der Woche mit frischen Handtüchern. Als Gastgeschenk 3 Liter Olivenöl. Zusammenfassen ist eine schöne Immobilie in guter Lage die etwas mehr pflege vertragen könnte. Ein persönlicher Check in mit relevanten Informationen über das Haus könnte zu einer deutlich höheren Zufriedenheit beitragen.
Vielen lieben Dank für den Aufenthalt in dieser schönen Villa.
Supermodern, großer Pool, eine Menge schöner Annehmlichkeiten, wie zB Startausstattung mit Lebensmitteln, Obst, Wasser, Saft, Gewürzen, Öl, Essig, Kaffee etc.
Die Vermieterin gibt fortwährend Infos über Strände, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, Restaurants etc.
Die Lage ist einmalig, man sieht vom Garten auf das Meer, sieht die Fortezza in Rethymnon. Bis dahin sind es mit dem Auto nur gut 20 min
Sehr zu empfehlen
This is a beautiful, spacious villa, with a fantastic garden and pool area, the pictures do not do it justice! Great views either way, one to the mountains and the other to the sea and a fantastic sunset. The icing on the cake is the fabulous hospitality of Fragkiskos and Evina, nothing is too much trouble, the advice on places to go great, and the generous gifts of cake, raki, fresh eggs and fabulous vegetables from the garden made it a very special holiday, we would highly recommend this villa and will be returning!
