Perfect Stay

The house was amazing and Joseph & Helga were In touch the whole time. Before arriving in Crete, during and after. We had a perfect stay. I would suggest car hire as the taxis don’t seem to like the road leading up to the villa. We had several issues with this but it was the taxi and nothing to do with the villa, to be clear! The villa was unreal. Peaceful and away from everything. Stone BBQ in the garden, comfy bed, lovely bathrooms! Perfectly equipped

Rethymnon en toute quietude

Très bel endroit, haut perché du côté d’Atsipopoulo au dessus de Rethymnon. Le plus remarquable c’est la quiétude de ce spot “flamboyant” pour ses couchers de soleil. Il y règne une atmosphère de silence presque de poésie et de méditation! La villa est parfaite tout comme la piscine.. tout est parfait a l’intérieur avec cette grande chambre parentale et la deuxième est bien également avec une salle d’eau séparée. La villa est de qualité +++ des murs épais de 70cm qui ne laisse pas la chaleur rentrer! Belles finitions …et tout absolument tout est fourni! Peut-être le seul bémol c’est le chemin d’accès à la villa qui est goudronné sauf les derniers 100 m en côte qui est un chemin non terminé, très caillouteux et avec des ornières… conclusion : un magnifique spot très apaisant au coucher de soleil flamboyant ( nous y étions en septembre 2022) . Les propriétaires qui sont Allemands sont extrêmement aux petits soins des vacanciers.. cher Josef, il faudra refaire le chemin ( en partie bétonné) et.. on reviendra c’est certain…quietude et très belle villa sont les mots d’ordre ! Bon séjour à vous.
