One word ... fabulous!

I feel I could have written this review before I arrived at the property such was the quality of the communication, photos and information given by the fabulous owners! Villa Adonis is GREAT and we had a super week there. It is quite possibly the cleanest, freshest smelling villa we have ever rented so our compliments to Nikki who oversees this. The quality of the villa internally and externally is excellent ... the beds, linens and bathroom are superb. It has clearly been well thought out and offers lots of little treats and extras that will make your time there a pleasure. However, it is the outside space that is really special ... a huge lawned garden filled with olive trees, fruit trees that sit alongside perfumed jasmine and hibiscus flowers surrounding two patio areas and the wonderful pool. Our teenagers loved the pool particularly because it was deep and they are tall now but there is a clever baby/toddler pool if you have children that aren't so big! Thank you Vissilis for the superb job you do caring for the pool and grounds. You do have neighbours at the villa but are barely aware of them such is the clever site design. It is a quiet spot down a dirt track where the cicadas are definitely making the most noise! The views of the valley onto the distant sea are lovely and the stars at night a joy to see. The area is great for exploring and we highly recommend that you read the comprehensive information book provided by the owner ... it's brilliant... spot on! We dragged ourselves away from the pool every now and again and we discovered and loved Taverna Eleven (awesome location, delicious food) Rethimno ( rich in history and perfect for exploring, shopping, a swim then dinner as the sun goes down) Spilies beach and taverna (we all fell in love with this little cove ... fantastic swimming but watch the winds though as the sea will be rough on a windy day ... the taverna offers simple well cooked Greek fare just up from the beach ... sandy toes and bottoms welcome!!) All in all it has been the most wonderful holiday where we fell in love with Crete, the Island and the people, and thoroughly enjoyed our time at Villa Adonis which we HIGHLY RECOMMEND ... thank you Monique and Adonis you have created a fabulous property.

Quiet space for an autumn recharge

Staying in October, we were lucky with the weather (at least until the last 24 hours!), but this was a perfect place to relax. An hour to Heraklion, and only a little more to Charnia, we could explore much of the island without too much time in the car. And two teenage boys enjoyed the pool once we returned. Set in a small development of about ten villas among the olive and citrus groves, this is a peaceful spot. The nearest shops and tavernas are less than 10 minutes away, but it was very helpful that we were met out on the main highway and taken to the villa the first time. The kitchen had what you would need, the beds were comfy and showers up and downstairs prevented any holdups in the morning. The arrival process was smooth, with the local support very friendly and responsive. All in all an easy and relaxing holiday.

Villa Adonis is a stylish and beautiful property.

We are a family of 4 including 2 teenagers and we have just returned from a 2 week stay at Villa Adonis. The house is very stylish and the grounds are private and wonderful with a great sized pool. Every evening we would sit on the terrace and watch the sun go down over the sea. Villa Adonis is really well located for travelling around Crete if you have a car. The beautiful towns of Rethymnon and Chania are very accessible as are some of the best beaches that I have ever seen. We are lucky to have travelled all over the world and have stayed in some amazing places but this ranks as one of the best holidays that we have ever had. My thanks to Domonique for renting her beautiful home to us. She could not have been more helpful and accommodating in making this holiday special.

Adonis cinq étoiles

Si nous devons évaluer notre séjour, nous accorderons 4 étoiles; si nous devons évaluer la propriété, sa villa ainsi que la gentillesse et la disponibilité des propriétaires nous accorderons cinq étoiles sur cinq. En effet, la préparation de notre arrivée par Monique et ses contacts sur place est impeccable. Aucune remarque négative sur la propriété, la villa, le jardin et la piscine ainsi que ses abords: propres et accueillants. Les voisins sont très discrets. Nous avons savouré le calme de la campagne crétoise, nous qui habitons en pleine ville. L'aménagement de la villa et sa décoration sont soignés; rien ne manque; tout fonctionne correctement. On entre, on est chez soi et on s'installe sur la terrasse, près de la piscine, en savourant le petit blanc crétois offert par nos hôtes. Deux fois par semaine, deux personnes charmantes effectuent l'entretien du jardin, de la piscine et de la villa: un plus sans aucun doute. Pourquoi alors quatre étoiles à notre séjour? Pour des raisons indépendantes des propriétaires. La météo fut très mauvaise durant les cinq premiers jours, ce qui est assez rare en Crète à cette période. Durant les cinq jours suivants, plein soleil et température très agréable mais nous avons été très incommodés par des moustiques particulièrement agressifs. Les propriétaires ne sont bien évidemment pas responsables de cette situation mais ces inconvénients ont malheureusement terni notre séjour. Nous gardons, avec le recul, de notre voyage, de très beaux souvenirs et des images inoubliables. L'accueil que nous avons reçu en Crète et à la Villa Adonis fut savoureux et nous ne manquons pas d'en faire part à nos amis et connaissances.

Tolles Ferienhaus!

Die Villa Adonis ist ein super ausgestattetes, schön gelegenes Ferienhaus mit allem, was dazu gehört. Es ist gut gelegen: sowohl zu den Stränden im Norden und Süden (zu bevorzugen) als auch zu vielen Sehenswürdigkeiten im Hinterland von Rethimno und Heraklion ist es nur ein kurzes Stück. (Ohne Auto geht allerdings nichts.) Im Städtchen Perama an der alten Verbindungsstraße zwischen Rethimno und Heraklion kann man alles Nötige für den Aufenthalt kaufen. Haus, Pool und Grundstück sind sehr gut gepflegt. Der nette englischsprachige Nachbar hat viele Tipps für schöne Lokale und Strände im Umland parat. Die Vermieterin Monique antwortet schnell und hat ebenfalls viele Tipps parat. Rundum zu empfehlen!
