Crete getaway

We were looking for a place to relax and explore Crete and we weren't disappointed. Arriving to a bunch of food for us, made the late arrival much more pleasant with no need to head out and figure out how to feed our tired selves.

Ideal home for a family vacation

We stayed here recently for an extended multigenerational family vacation. There were 10 of us and this place was perfect for us. All the main rooms were spacious. All the bedrooms large enough with plenty of places to sleep. The pool, hot tub were superb. The grounds and garden area were all well maintained. There were toys and things for kids to play with and keep busy. The patio areas, BBQ and outdoor dining were all well equipped. Best of all was the host. He was kind and generous and super helpful. He brought us a delicious hot meal and cold drinks the evening of our arrival which was great after our drive from Heraklion. The chicken souvlaki and beef were the best we had on the island. We would recommend this place and Crete to anyone. The home was close to Rethymno, nice beaches, and fun things to do and places to hike in the middle of island. All in all, really loved it.

Super holiday in Sfakaki, Crete

We stayed in Villa Kokkinos, managed by Etouri, in Sfakaki,Crete, for a week in May. Villa was superb - had everything we needed, including so many little extras such as soft fluffy pool towels, lots of cupboard essentials, dishwasher with liquid, plenty of loo paper!! The owner also provided us with a meal delivered from his own Restaurant, at the Villa, the night we arrived, a welcome basket and we were also able to send him before we left home, a short shopping list of things we might need until we could do our own proper shop, which was waiting for us when we got there, all put away in the fridge and cupboards. The beds and pillows were comfy, there was a Games Room, a children's play area, a small football net, a basketball stand and fitness equipment - and of course, the lovely pool and hot tub!! My son and his girlfriend also enjoyed having their own separate little villa in the grounds, which gave them a bit of time and space away fom us 'oldies' Both Villas were beautifully clean and very well cared for. We had plenty of hot water for showers. The balconies gave lovely views of the sea and mountains and were great to have breakfast or watch the sun go down. Nice area, with lots of Restaurants and a couple of mini supermarkets, I would recommend hiring a car, in order to see the many beautiful areas of Crete. We were very sorry to leave!

Wonderful Villa

We had a great holiday in this beautiful, spacious villa. The owner came by frequently to clean the pool and outside areas. The meal he provided on our first evening was much appreciated as were the pastries the next morning. The outside seating areas were great as were the pool and hot tub. There is a nice beach within walking distance and a good local supermarket. There are many nice restaurants and lovely beaches within a short drive. Etouri, the local agents, were excellent.
