Guest comments
'A peaceful and ideal place to explore W Crete. You've thought of everything. Thank's for the directions to the Villa which got us there easily although the roads take a bit of getting used to! Samaria Gorge was fantastic and more spectacular than remembered. You've loads of different sitting places/balconies to choose from which is really nice-you can follow the sun/shade as you wish. The White mountains views from your house are really great.'
'Thank you for the use of the villa last week. We had a lovely time and enjoyed being in Almyrida again. We shall certainly be recommending the villa to everyone we know, thanks again.'
'Probably the best holiday ever!'
'What a wonderful time we had. The villa was even better than it seemed in the pictures. The views were simply breathtaking. We were enormously lazy for the wk but never tired of enjoying the lovely environment. The personal/thoughtful touches made the stay even better. We'll be back.
