Perfect getaway
We loved the house, fully equipped and only 29 mins away from Agia Galini and a host of restaurants and supermarkets

Superbe Villa, magnifique vue et hôtes attentionnés!
Nous avons eu une très belle semaine avec nos 5 enfants. Le propriétaire nous a accommodé avec un lit supplémentaire pour notre ado. Très apprécié. Belle piscine et terrasse. Maison propre, fonctionnelle et confortable. À 10 minutes de voiture des plus belles plages de la Crète, à l'abri du tourisme de masse. Nous avons eu de très belles attentions de la part de tous, le propriétaire, Kostas et son équipe! Merci pour ce séjour mémorable. Nous serions rester au moins une semaine supplémentaire!

Beautiful location, wonderful home.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Galini and would return any time our travels take us back to Crete. The house is very much as shown on the pictures. Beautiful all new construction and very comfortably and stylishly furnished. There is ample space for a family of 4 (we have 2 teenagers) but the house is laid out to accommodate 6 if you're OK with 2 sleeping on the living room sofas which are large and comfortable enough for that purpose. Equipment leaves nothing to be desired for either. You will have a fully equipped kitchen so can do reasonable cooking for a 4-6 people family, a washing machine and air-conditioning if needed (we used it sparingly at night when the wind was too strong to leave the windows open). On the terrace there also is a gas BBQ. Furnishings on the terrace allow you to either lounge at the beautiful pool or have an al-fresco meal - the table is a bit small for a full-blown outdoor dining experience but if you're happy with serving food inside and stepping outside to eat, it's wonderful and allows you to enjoy the stunning view over the hills/mountains down to the sea. The location is great if you prefer the quiet and don't mind driving 10-15 min to get to the beaches, dining or shopping. Southern Crete doesn't seem to be the most touristy part of the island, so if you like to step out of your accommodation and be right in the center of the hustle and bustle, this is not the place for you. If however you enjoy quiet, nature, beautiful uncrowded beaches with wonderful cristal clear water and small tavernas with great local food, this is a wonderful place to spend a vacation. The owner and the manager were extremely friendly and helpful with anything that we asked for. Service with the rental included a quick cleaning and change of towels, bathrobes and linens every 3 days as well as pool cleaning. We had a wonderful time. Thank you.

The villa was lovely but remote.
The villa was new and well equipped with a good supply of basic household items. However a car and Satnav is essential as the nearest town is a 20 minute drive. The owner was extremely helpful and arranged for groceries to be there on arrival and even brought a cake and bottle of wine for us. There was only two sun loungers (good quality) which was disappointing for a villa for four. We would recommend the villa if you are looking for a peaceful and relaxing holiday.

Villa très pratique pour découvrir la région de Rethymnon et les belles plages du Sud
La villa est conforme à sa description et la prise de contact, comme la procédure d'arrivée, sont très faciles. Très belle vue également avec un accès à toutes les merveilles de la Région de Rethymnon et notamment les plages et gorges du Sud de la Région, mais aussi le site antique de Phaestos. Seul bémol: villa très venteuse ce qui refroidit un peu la piscine.

Erholung pur!
Das Haus liegt etwas abseits, dafür aber sehr ruhig und mit tollem Blick aufs Meer. Bis Agia Galini fährt man 20 Minuten und dort bekommt man alles, was man braucht und die Restaurants sind hervorragend! Ausflüge kann man einige im Radius von 1-2 Stunden Fahrzeit machen. Weitere Strecken wollten wir nicht fahren. Erholung, tolles Essen, nette Menschen, klares Meer, schöner Pool, toller Service von etouri, kurz: großartiger Urlaub!

Objekt so wie beschrieben jedoch befindet sich der Pool in Schattenlage und ist somit sehr kalt. Rest der Anlage in Ordnung.

Geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Ferienhaus in wundervoller Lage
Das Haus hat einen fantastischen Ausblick auf Meer und Berge. Den Strand kann man mit dem Auto gut erreichen, nur das Einkaufen ist aufgrund der abgeschiedenen Lage etwas aufwendig. Die Einrichtung des Hauses ist geschmackvoll und sehr gepflegt. Die Küche ist groß, die Küchenausstattung (Pfanne, Geschirr) aber zum Kochen auf Dauer etwas minimalistisch.
