We stayed for a fortnight at the beginning of July 2024, and can honestly say it was one of the best villas we have ever stayed in.
There is loads of space and everywhere is beautifully furnished and decorated, and clean. The air conditioning in the bedrooms was excellent and unobtrusive. A good and well appointed kitchen with a good sized fridge/freezer.
The pool was wonderful, with lots of lovely trees etc around to give a good mix of shade and sun. And the overall garden was great for lounging, eating, chilling. Great BBQ area too.
The hosts were so attentive and welcoming, but not in any way overbearing. We didn't see them unless we needed help, and they were incredibly helpful and answered our questions so quickly.
The hamlet location has stunning views and is lovely and quiet, but is only a 10 minute drive from the beach, shops, restaurants. And is only a 20 minute drive from Rethymno's brilliant old town (great for shopping and eating).
We would definitely recommend it and we are planning on returning! A first class experience.
