Wir waren Insgesamt sehr zufrieden mit der Villa und der Lage.
Der Pool ist groß, die Bäder schön und sauber.
Mit dem Auto erreicht man in der Umgebung schnell Restaurants, Supermarkt und Strand.
Kleinerer Kritikpunkt war, dass der Kühlschrank manchmal sehr Laut war.
Insgesamt war es ein schöner Urlaub und wir haben den Aufenthalt genossen.
La maison est propre et décorée avec goût et qualité. Les chambres sont très confortables et la piscine est très belle.
Attention néanmoins, il n’y a pas de lave vaisselle contrairement à ce qui est spécifié dans l’annonce et la maison longe une route. Ce n’est pas le calme absolu.
La maison est bien placée, facile de rejoindre Rethymnon et la plage qui est à 5 minutes en voiture est très sympa.
Wir waren zwei Familien mit je einem Kleinkind und haben die Gastfreundschaft von Giorgos sehr geschätzt! Bei Fragen lief die Kommunikation immer schnell. Die Villa ist wirklich super schön und liegt günstig zwischen schönen Stränden und den tollen Bergen auf dem Weg gen Süden, in die man vom Garten aus blickt.
Eine Spülmaschine wäre wünschenswert gewesen, der große Kühlschrank war hilfreich.
Alles in allem gab es zwar kleinere Beeinträchtigungen, aber wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und empfehlen die Unterkunft sehr.
Danke an Giorgos für seine stetige Unterstützung!
