June Rethymno Holiday

We were looking for a relaxing holiday with lovely weather and a fantastic villa, we got all three!! Couldn't have asked for a better holiday if we had tried. The old town of Rethymno was really lovely and the people were so friendly.

Lovely villa with stunning views.

The villa sits on a hillside above Rethymno with jaw dropping views. Giorgos was a great host and super helpful. The villa was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The beds were really comfortable and we all slept very well. Overall a lovely villa - but for us the highlight was definitely sitting in the garden, looking at the amazing views. You can walk into town in about 20 minutes, but as the villa is on a steep hill it’s not an easy walk back up.

Stunning Villa with incredible views and great host.

Our young family stayed in the Villa for 10 nights in September 2020 with my sister and her young family. The view from the Villa and garden was just breathtaking - the online photos do not do it justice and there are plenty of great places to relax in the garden to admire the aspect. The Villa was set up perfectly for two families sharing with separate bathrooms, four good sized bedrooms (all air conditioned) and plenty of play equipment in the garden to keep the kids entertained. The pool worked really well and the safety fence provided peace of mind that the children were safe with the glass balustrading allowing you to admire the view whilst relaxing in the pool. Having stayed in many self catered Villas we were surprised at how well equipped the accommodation was which made our stay easier. The Villa was spotless when we arrived and regularly cleaned through our stay. Location wise the accommodation provides the perfect balance being only a short drive from the Centre of Rethymno (which was amazing for shops and restaurants) yet set in a very quiet and private location. When we arrived the Owner was there to greet us and show us around the Villa which was incredibly helpful, he also passed on local knowledge, best places to eat etc. The Owner is a really friendly character and certainly made us feel at home. He left a homemade cake and pasta dish which his Mum cooked and even came to say goodbye when we left. The Owner managed to strike the perfect balance of being helpful but never intrusive and left us alone to enjoy the Villa. Get ready for the shots of Raki! We would highly recommend the Villa and hope to visit again in the near future.

Fantastic villa and wonderful hosts

We have just returned from Villa Princess in Crete. We were met by villa owner Georgios, and his homemade Raki, the check-in process was easy and Georgios showed us all around the villa and the property. A beautifully presented villa with the most incredible views. Georgios , his mum Vagelio and Maria came every 3 days to clean the pool and villa, along with homemade treats which were delicious. The Villa is situated about 2km from the old town, it is easy to get taxis. The best villa we have ever stayed in, Georgios and his family are so welcoming we would definitely stay here again.
