Ein perfekter Urlaub

Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt und es hat an nichts gefehlt. Lina und ihr Team waren zu jeder Zeit für uns da und sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich. Auch den Kindern hat es super gefallen. Die Ausstattung in der Villa und im Außenbereich lässt keinen Wunsch offen. Wir wurden auf Wunsch auch zwei Mal bekocht. Ich habe auf Kreta nicht besser gegessen. Beim Frühstück, das jeden Morgen pünktlich um 9 Uhr gebracht wurde, ist für jeden etwas dabei. Ich würde empfehlen immer mal wieder was anderes auszuprobieren, so behält man die Abwechslung dabei. Vielen Dank für den schönen Aufenthalt und die Gastfreundschaft.

Outstanding family gathering- beautifully supported by Lina at every step of the way.

The villa was fabulous- 7 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms made everything effortless. The pool was even better- plenty of room for people to play together or spend time alone. Lina prepared a Cretan feast for us all- 15- for my birthday- and helped me plan an excursion to Knossos and an amazing dinner recommendation in Rethymno- she gave individual recommendations and local tips and made sure everyone had what they needed in the Villa and beyond. Simply outstanding

A wonderful place to make amazing memories

From the first enquiry email we knew this was going to be the place for our family of 15 to spend precious time together. Our holiday was 15 months in the making and during that time we had lots of different questions we needed the answers to. Lina was so super responsive, knowledgeable and kind in her responses, she was patient too. We loved the villa, especially the outside space. The pool is huge, the amenities spot on, plenty of sunbeds, outdoor seating and enough table space to dine comfortably. We chose to have two dinners cooked for us, one on our arrival day and one midweek. The food was beautifully cooked, you could tell it was lovingly prepared by the way it was presented. There was plenty for all and even some for lunch the next day-amazing. We're so glad we booked the dinners, a real treat. Breakfast every day-wow, such a great way to start the day. Shopping, preparation, cooking and clearing up after 15 is time consuming - a massive bonus to have breakfast delivered. Lina called us taxis when we needed them, be aware that taxis to 'the square' were on average €15 which was more than we anticipated. In hindsight, we probably should've hired cars. Airport transfers were arranged for us by Lina and the driver was Fab too. We experienced many of the local restaurants, which we enjoyed immensely. From our youngest to the oldest and every age in between, we had a blast. Thank you Lina, we hope to see you again.

We did it again!

As we have had a perfect week last year, we booked immediatly after we came home. Although we had a few doubts if that fantastic week could be repeated, we weren't disappointed at all: Everything was perfect again! The breakfast service, Lina with her care taking, the gardener, the communication with Nikos,... Perhaps we should book for 2024 now! ;)

Fantastic getaway

We had a fabulous time with friends and family at the wonderful villa. The rooms/space and pool was perfect to accommodate 15 of us. The BBQ area was lovely, especially watching the sun go down on the the beautiful Crete horizon. Lina was on hand to provide the best support throughout our stay and helped with local restaurant bookings. She and the other staff were brilliant. Nothing was ever a problem. We would definitely recommend this villa to others and we'll consider a revisit in the future.
