Perfect location for families
We had super relaxing days in this villa. We were 4 adults with 5 children between 3 and 8 years. Especially the big screen was super fun for the kids. After a short instruction of the owner, the installation iPad to beamer worked great. Also the sports field as well as the sand court were used - not much but still it was great to have them. Just above the villa, the owner of the villa runs a super nice restaurant with excellent food. By foot you have approx. 10min. Be sure to make a reservation, because it is very popular. There is nothing negative to report, except the missing yoga mats 😄. We all felt very comfortable at this place.

Charmigt hus med fantastisk utemiljö
Allt fungerade jättefint, vi hade en toppenvecka, vi var 9 personer och alla älskade boendet. Utemiljön var fantastisk, med flera mysiga uteplatser, skön gräsmatta och fina växter, utedusch och pool. Vi trivdes särskilt bra vid det stora utebordet under trädet som gav skön skugga. Huset var charmigt och fungerade mycket bra, det fanns också frukost i kylen när vi kom, det kändes välkomnande. Gångavstånd till den lilla byn är ett plus, vi besökte också ägarens restaurang som var väldigt bra och med fin service. Det enda som drog ner lite var den fina lilla katten som vi kallade Findus (inte ägarens), han var lite jobbig i början, men vi matade honom, vilket hjälpte eftersom han var väldigt hungrig och tiggde. Vi kunde inte låta altandörren stå öppen eftersom vi inte ville ha honom i huset. Vi hade också små små myror som tog sig in i köket och även var på bordet ute så fort det stod mat framme, trädgårdsmästaren kom direkt för att åtgärda det men just då syntes de inte. Vi kan varmt rekommendera boendet, som också hade gångavstånd till en liten strand med restaurang, och kort bilresa till härliga staden Rethymno.
