A beautiful villa
This is a lovely villa that ticks all the boxes. Beautifully presented and the property managers were extremely helpful. It is a little off the beaten track so a car is recommended. Great place.

Villa Dolce Vita is an oasis of calm and relaxation but only a short drive to Rethymno. You are welcomed with a home cooked dish of food together with fruit and water. Marianna the agent was on hand for anything you may need. The villa and pool were kept immaculately clean by Maria (the owner) and her family and Maria lets you know what day and time they will be visiting next. A fantastic villa highly recommended! Thank you Maria and family and Marianna.

The villa was even better than as described. The assistance from Evmorfia and the owners surpassed all expectations. The villa is beautifully appointed and located in a charming village with easy access to Rethymnon. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be looking to come again. I cammt recommend this highly enough.

Wonderful villa with fantastik views
We had a fantastic holiday in this wonderful villa. Everything was clean and new. The pool was very nice. The house is in the outskirts of a nice small village with a mini market and a couple of nice tavernas. The surroundings are very nice . The property manager was very helpful and easy to contact. We got a lot of information and ideas for excursions. We arrived late in the evening and the owner had made a meal to welcome us. We really recommend a holiday in this house.

Villa Dolce Vita Holiday Saturday 25th.August - 1st.September 2018
I had a lovely holiday with my Son And Grand-daughters staying at the Villa Dolce Vita in Prinos Village. Everyone very friendly and helpful. On our visit to Chania old town (which shouldn't be missed) we had the Mother of all Thunder Storms which followed us back to Rethymno in the evening where we watched the fork lightening in candle light from the villa.(Take a torch in case mobile phone needs charging) Don't worry folks it was unusual weather.We all agreed an experience that added to our lovely stay at the Villa Dolce. Thank you to everyone and to Evmorfia who looked after us during our stay. Not to be missed Rethymno Old Town, Panormos, Margarites Village. Information from Evmorfia. Thank you. --- " Efharisto " " Efharisto para poli " " Thank you very much " x P.S. We did feed stray ginger cat and her kitten (Milk and left overs. Sorry !)

Wonderful villa, fabulous views, quiet area. Great local tavernas and small markets.
Our family had a great first visit to Crete. My husband and I had four lovely days alone, followed by my son and partner and daughter and her partner. for the final week. There is plenty of room in the villa. We had a welcome pack with freshly cooked food (so yummy) What especially attracted me to Dolce Vita was the great outdoor space, the pool, bbq area and separate seating areas. Not to mention amazing views of the Aegean Sea and the mountains! The Villa is situated in the lovely village of Prines, just south of Rethymno. I chose this area as it has access east to Heraklion, west to Chania and south to the wonderful beaches. The Villa's owners, Yannis and Maria, whom we met several times could not have been more helpful, generous and hardworking. The Villa and pool is kept immaculately, cleaned with new linen twice a week and pool almost every other day. We also found out that Yannis had built the Villa, amazing! 'Muses Travel' the agents are also great, they keep a discreet distance unless needed and will be there for you whatever the problem. The villa can easily accommodate up to eight people. We loved being on the quieter edge of the village, but also part of it if we chose. The three tavernas and small markets are all within walking distance. We all totally recommend this amazing Villa and hope to visit there again very soon. Thank you Yannis and Maria for allowing us use of your wonderful Villa. Best wishes, hope to see you again Brad and Debbie Stein

Delightful villa. Amazing views.
We were lucky enough to be one of the first to stay at the villa, and the owners have got pretty much everything right first time. The pool area has loads of room to enjoy the sun, and plenty of shaded areas for when it gets a bit too warm, and the views down to the sea are such a bonus. The house is well equipped, the bedrooms are all large, and the communal areas are modern and tastefully furnished. Best of all was how well we were looked after before and during our stay, with nothing being too much trouble, and every time we needed help or advice it was offered, sometimes before we'd even had to ask. We couldn't have asked for anything more.

Wonderful house and pool in quiet surroundings
We really enjoyed our vacation in this house. We stayed there for almost 2 weeks. We especially liked the big pool and my son even learned swimming there. The house is big and has everything you could ever need. Beautiful beaches are close by and there are some good tavernas in walking distance. The only thing my son was disappointed about was that the playground next to the house was not as shown in the photos. But we went to a public playground instead that was also within wLjing distance. The welcome and check-in went very smooth and we even got some great dishes from the owner. We can definetely recommend this house and would love to come back.
