Villa near Rethymno
Nice property and service by the agency. Surprisingly we had to give a cash deposit at the check in (maybe because we were a group of young adults). We had a nice stay at the villa without any further complications. We got our deposit fully back.

Sehr schöne kinderfreundliche Villa
Wir haben unseren Urlaub sehr genossen. Es hat alles super funktioniert. Wir konnten die Villa trotz Corona unkompliziert übernehmen. Jedes Zimmer ist mit Fliegennetzen und Klimaanlage versehen, was in heissen Nächten ein unglaubicher Vorteil ist.

Traumferienhaus auf Kreta
Die Villa Vasia bietet allen Komfort für einen perfekten Urlaub. Das Haus bietet drei etwa gleich große Schlafzimmer, zwei davon mit direktem Zugang zur Dachterasse. Alle Zimmer ausgestattet mit Doppelbetten, Bettwäsche, Handtücher und Bademäntel. Das Bad mit mit einer Duschwanne, Toilette und Doppelwaschbecken, Fön und Dusch und Badeutensilien bestückt. Im Erdgeschoss befindet sich das zweite Bad mit ebenerdiger Dusche, Toilette und Waschbecken. Durch das große Wohnzimmer mit zahlreichen Sitzmöglichkeitenund die voll ausgestattete Küche gelangt man in den nicht einsehbaren Garten mit Swimmingpool und Aussendusche. Gleich daneben ist die Außenküche mit Holzkohlengrill und gemauertem Ofen. Neben der perfekten Ausstattung für Paare oder Familien ist die Betreuungdurch die "Agentur" besonders zu erwähnen. Valia und ihr Mann Manolis sorgen sich persönlich um das Wohl ihrer Gäste. Ein gut gefüllter Kühlschrank für das notwendigste nach der Anreise stehen genauso bereit wie der Raki als Willkommens Gruß. Jede kleine Bitte wird umgehend erfüllt, jedes Problemchen aus dem Weg geräumt. Im Hintergrund sorgt ihr Papa für einen blitzblanken Pool und wenn nötig Reparaturen. Geputzt wir zwei bis drei mal wöchentlich inkl. Wechsel der Strand und Badetücher. Manolis Empfehlung für eine Gratis Massage (ca. 20 min) bei Maria sind wir gerne gefolgt und haben noch mehrere weitere Massagen bei Maria gebucht, eine besondere Wohltat. Ebenso empfehlen können wir die Autovermietung Best Cars mit der Valia zusammenarbeitet: Service und Preis/Leistung stimmen hier. Wir hatten während des ganzen Aufenthalts ein Auto zur Verfügung. Die Lage des Hauses ist ca. 5km vom Strand (Platanes) entfernt. Das Haus liegt sehr ruhig, abgeschlossen mit zwei weiteren Villen im Nichts, ein Auto ist hier ein muß. Die nächste Einkaufsmöglichkeit bietet Platanes mit Lidl und einem gut sortiertem lokalen Supermarkt. Bummeln kann man dort oder schöner in Rethymnon. Für ein Abendessen in der kleinen Taverne können wir Pagonas Place empfehlen, die größere Gesellschaft findet Platz im Zisis. Noch einmal herzlichen Dank an Valia und Manolis!
