Location of the villa was perfect with plenty of shops and restaurants very close by and having the 3 separate apartments worked so well for our 3 families. Lovely pool area and it was great to have use of the games room too.

Lovely outside space & pool. Great location for beach, bars, restaurants etc. Ground floor interior a little bit dated in contrast to first floor apartments, which were more modern. A little bit of an ant problem in ground floor kitchen area.

Sehr freundliche Vermieter und eine perfekte zentrale Lage des Hauses. Supermärkte und Restaurants in unmittelbarer Umgebung vorhanden und 5-10 min Taxifahrt zur Partymeile von Rethymno. Die Villa war sauber und der Pool wurde jeden Tag gereinigt.
