September Girls’ Trip

Overall, we enjoyed the house and the people with whom we worked. The description online is a bit deceptive. There are two “bedrooms” on the uppermost floor. And both are very small. One room has a bathroom in it along with twin bed, a dresser, and a closet. The other room cannot be called a bedroom. It has a twin bed that is hard as a tabletop. There is no closet and there is no dresser. Just a terrible bed and a small bedside table. To get to the bathroom you must walk into other bedroom. And that bathroom is very small with a very small shower. There was one hairdryer in the house which was a problem for 7 women. The public space of the house is nice and we enjoyed that as well. Kitchen is well equipped except for wine glasses. The grounds and the pool are very pretty and well maintained. We enjoyed that.

Prachtig klassiek grote villa met een enorme tuin en zwembad

Prima lokatie dicht bij Heraklion en vlakbij strand van Amoudara. Villa is ruim en de tuin en het zwembad gigantisch. Ontvangst door beheerders echtpaar heel hartelijk en warm. Huis is heel persoonlijk en met veel zorgvuldige accessoires aangekleed.

This villa is gorgeous inside and out,very spacious garden and plenty of space to sunbathe around the pool..we were a group of ten..our four young children aged 3,4 and two 6year old absolutely enjoyed themselves,the pool was amazing and they couldn't get enough of it..the park in the garden was great too for our younger two,id like to thank vasilis and his team for being so welcoming kind and very helpful,ordering our takeouts and calling taxis for us because of the language barrier,also a huge thank you to martha for the very pleasant welcome and for the delicious food cooked on arrival😋..we all had a amazing week and would definitely want to return in the future..sheena and family
