We’ve just returned from a great trip to Crete. We stayed at Villa Lefkothea which was beautiful accommodation for the 11 of us. It’s a 10 minute walk to the small village of Adele which has a small shop and two tavernas. It’s a 20 minute walk to the beach and a 10 minute drive to the lovely town of Rethymno.
The villas themselves were clean, spacious and well furnished. The pool was large with plenty of seating and shade.
We had a great time, thanks to Manousos before arrival and Nikos when we were there - both quick to respond to queries and very helpful.

Why they chose this property
Adele, is a traditional and historical village and is located 8 Kms east of Rethymno.
It’s built in the plain, between olive and other fruit trees. The village has approximately 430 local residents.
Shopping facilities for everyday's necessities can be found at the village of Adele, providing butcher, baker, grocery shop, pharmacy, Manos mini market, hairdresser, taverns and internet cafe. A gas station can be found at about 600 meters just 1 minute away by car from the villa.
Additionally a long sandy beach can be found at a distance of 2 minutes with local bars & restaurants. Water sports are available in the summer months. However there are many beautiful beaches all over the island catering all needs - busy, secluded, whatever you are looking for, you won't have far to go.
