Our Family Holiday at The Villa Gerani Hill - Sivas in Rethymno, Crete

An absolutely amazing property which was of exceptional quality. Beautiful grounds and wonderful pool. It really did surpass all expectations. All of our needs and far more were catered for, we could not have asked for better service from all who were involved in looking after us. The owners were dedicated to making us feel welcome providing us with cakes and pizzas and pastries. Everyone went above and beyond to make our stay special. Etouri were exceptional. I have never had the pleasure of dealing with so many people whose aim was complete customer satisfaction. Absolutely amazing! My husband and I wanted to give our family a summer holiday where we could all be together, enjoy each other’s company in a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere and where we could feel at ease and have fun. Our stay at The Villa Gerani Hill - Sivas provided all of the above and far more. It certainly was the holiday of a lifetime. Thank you to everyone involved in making this so special. Julie H

Wonderful stay

We had a wonderful stay at the villa which was beautifully presented with excellent facilities. The owners were very generous and brought us fresh pastries and other foods on several occasions. The concierge service was excellent and did everything we requested of them very promptly. We enjoyed visits to Rethymno and had excellent meals there and at Starras in Gerani. Would definitely recommend this villa

Fantastic Villa for large family group

This villa certainly has the wow factor. With 3 master bedrooms and 4 further spacious double bedrooms this villa offered us the flexibility to work for 3 generations including 6 children aged 9 to 14. We paid for heating the pool, definitely well worth it. The children were in it at every possible opportunity. With a full kitchen, large barbecue area and a pizza oven we ate out less than half the time. The pool table and table tennis table were a definite hit with the adults, as was the sauna, but for 1, 14 year old bot, the gym was definitely the best. There was a play station, useful at times, and 2 chess sets, with the interesting characters making it even harder for us oldies. The owner and his wife were absolutely lovely and extremely welcoming and helpful. All in all a superb villa in a wonderful location with spectacular views, definitely worth every penny.

Fabulous Villa for all ages - Loved it!

This truly is a fabulous villa and we have no hesitation in recommending it. 5 star for all aspects. We stayed as 3 families of 6 older adults and 7 younger adults. The pool area, BBQ/pizza area, hot tub, pool table, table tennis, gym, tennis court and extensive grounds suited all ages. The beds were super comfortable and we all slept well. We loved collecting eggs daily from the free range chicken coop, picking hanging grapes and huge tomatoes but most of all the owners, Petros and his wife Miss Effie popped by throughout the week with lots of goody baskets of pastries, pizzas and wine making us feel so very welcome and looked after. The view is certainly breathtaking and whilst isolated enough to play music around the pool without disturbing anyone, not so isolated you couldn’t pop into the vibrant town with bustling shops and restaurants of Rethymno or central enough for many sightseeing trips over the island. We went to the local village restaurant for a Cretan meal and the whole atmosphere, food and must do back area was wonderful with Pertos having bought a round of drinks for us. The concierge service provided by Etouri who manage the property for the owners was truly outstanding; for their communication and responsiveness and what they provided. They arranged boat hire, booked restaurants and taxis often at late notice and much more. Having a direct phone in the villa to their office was amazing and enabled the older adults to go off in the cars for day trips leaving the youngsters in their capable hands to sort taxis etc for them. The whole week was stress free and a memory to treasure.
