Spacious house with nice pool and barbecue.

The villa is exceptional. Immaculate and spacious. Our hosts were always on standby to ensure that our holiday was as smooth as possible. There is an arena close to the villa that facilitates weddings. However, we were warned that this could be an all-nighter and close our windows and doors. There was no need to warn us but all part of the service. I can not recommend this place enough. Made our year. Thank you so much. BBQ area was brilliant. We went to bed, leaving hot coals, and awoke to an Immaculate BBQ. Nothing was too much trouble.

House is nice quite big 4 bedroom and 2 bathrooms was comfortable for 9 person 2 big tarace on each floor Barbecue area was cleaned everyday after when we use Lady ask us everyday do we need need new towels or do we need any cleaning There is 2 Villas close to each other but each Villa got swimming pool area on other site. so you dont see or hear other tourist from second Villa . Best place to visit is local pub/ taverna where nice owner Kristina gave us high quallity service with food and drink If you want to try real greek cousine she can make It for you. If you want to go to nearest town by bus there is 2 bus stops on main road and bus travel each hours both directions to Bali city 7 km (15 min trip ) and other way to Rethymno (35 min trip ) Nearest big shop 7 km in village and nearest Lidl in Rethymno

“Amazing villa in olive trees grove”

We stayed at Villa Maria (Villa II) for 12 nights. If you can choose among Villa Eleni and Villa Maria when making the booking, I'd recommend Villa Maria, since its position is kinda more private (surrounded by the olive trees grove, which is fantastic). There is nothing "luxury" about the villa but it is really nice, clean and cosy. Tere are 4 bedrooms in total (2 downstairs - double bed and two single beds and 2 upstairs (with the similar setup). There is a bathroom on each floor (2 in total). Kitchen has all the amenities. The outside pool is a special thing - water is very warm (at least in summer) and we all really enjoyed it. There is a nice BBQ setup! In overall, the villa territory is beautiful, you're really enjoying it:) Lots of parking space. And btw, yes, a car is a must due to the villa location. Nearest (and a really nice beach) is in Panormo town (3-5min drive from the villa). There is a Skepasti Tavern (closest to the villa) which is 3min drive or 15min walk. Nearest minimarket is in the same Skepasti village - 5min walk but it's very small and has the basic things only (still, better something than nothing). The other "supermarket" is 5min drive but in general, if you're outside of Heraklion or Chania, majority of grocery stores are small, not really convenient (anyways, you can still buy most of the thing you need, of course). If it's your first time on Crete (or in this area of Crete), do go to the town of Rethymno - it is an amazing, beautiful greek town with lots of shops, restaurants and cafes! It is about 25min drive down there but it definitely worth it. We like Rethymno MUCH more than Chania. Special thanks to the Villa hosts! They are VERY nice, polite and hospital. Never bothering you but visiting the pool area every morning and making sure things are set and ready for your next day. They brought us their home-made olive oil and oranges we made fresh juice of.
