Great family holiday, 2 weeks in July 2019. 13 of us ranging from 6-69 years old. Wonderful!

Car hire essential from airport, we had three Corsas for 2 weeks, easy drive on dual carriageway, directions were easy to follow. Aimilia the concierge met us upon arrival and conducted tour of Villa, she was always contactable with mobile number if needed and sent texts when we were to expect maids. Paradise is actually 2 villas semi detached but access to each is either on the ground floor or top floor, It worked fine and we moved the tables on the terraces together to eat. Villa extremely well equipped, maids cleaned, changed bed linen, towels every three days. 4 big bathrooms and 4 toilet washrooms. Pool, hut tub maintained. Family room/ kitchen on top floor leading to terrace which caught breeze was perfect for family meals. Air con made sleeping comfortable. In fact the villa was as described online. Robert at Etouri sent emails offering ideas/treats for outings and helped with general information. Plenty of places to visit, pick up leaflets or research on Google, beaches we visited were lovely and clean with amenities. Usually if you bought a drink sunbeds and brollys were free. ( Not in Rythmno) Rythmno is lively day and night, Knossos l found was well worth a trip, waterparks were wet:-) !!!!!!!! Younger members of family enjoyed. We all did our own thing hence 3 cars, it worked very well but we managed to eat together in the evenings. We made more wonderful memories as a family, everyone relaxed and had a really great holiday. For us it was Paradise!

Excellent basis to explore Crete

Aimilia’s duo villa named Paradise is an excellent place to stay if you’re travelling with two families with kids: two living units with a joint garden with pool and jacuzzi and a rooftop terrace that offers a breathtaking view of the Rethymno coast from sunrise to sunset. From the villa tucked on the mountain side just off Rethymno we explored Crete from Iraklion to Chania and from Rethymno to Plakias and the Samaria Gorge. It was always nice to come back there after a daytrip: the house was cleaned and linen changed every couple of days. The 2 kitchens are well equipped with big fridges and there is a fireplace in the garden. In case of any need Aimilia is just a Whatsapp message away to try to help. And in case you don’t feel like cooking your own meal, I can recommend to walk into the Prines village center to enjoy some of the best Greek hospitality and food on offer from Yannis at Giannikkos Taberna. We spent 13 very enjoyable days in the villa and would recommend it to any larger group that wants to have a comfortable and peaceful basis to explore Crete.

It is a perfect place to stay for a family of 14 like ours; it could easily accommodate more

The villa(s) is/are beautifully situated and well equipped, the view is superb. We appreciated the warm welcome. We liked the swimming-pool and heated outdoor whirl-bath, the billiards-room and the gym. It was much more than we had expected and certainly worth the money.

The best holiday and nicest villa i've been too

I took a university mountaineering group to the island and we stayed at Villa Paradise. The club normally goes away every year to another country to climb. This year the accommodation (Villa Paradise) we stayed at was the best hands down. The manager of the property gave me a lot of guidance about Crete, which really made our stay less stressful. The owners daughter was very kind and made us feel very welcome. We had complimentary wine, olive oil, fruits and snacks. The Villa was very clean and tidy. If we had any problems the owners daughter sorted it out straight away. Overall this was the best holiday and was the least stress free I've had booking accommodation in the UK and abroad.
