Great time spent with the family in an excellent villa with plenty of "Mamma Mia" character
A charming villa with a pool overlooking the valley and mountains. All required facilities were provided including a generous welcome pack and the ongoing service by the Hatzidakis family was prompt and first rate. A quiet, rural and rustic location accessed by narrow and winding roads some 20 minutes from Perama so being prepared and confident enough to drive abroad is an important consideration. Perama has all you require and we would recommend the Carrefour supermarket, the butchers some 50m down the road and the patisserie close to the bridge. Recommended trips would be Panormos and its beach, (Bali was too crammed for us), Carob 'n' Olive restaurant and Olive Processing factory in Melidoni, Rethymnon and its old town area (Rimondi restaurant was great), Klados Winery, Samaria Gorge (Thursday evening = Cretan music & dancing) and Potamoi dam (including lakeside café for ice cream). Although we ventured out on many occasions we really enjoyed the villa, the pool and cooking our own food on the BBQ and in the pizza oven. Great time and wonderful memories.
