"Everyone had such an amazing time in Crete. The villa gave everyone everything they could want, lovely pool, games, evenings making pizzas and just overall an amazing villa with beautiful views. Such amazing communication from the villas team too as they were so helpful.Friends are already planning to stay again in the future. "

"Beautiful villa, owners were brilliant, a lovely welcome package which was extremely handy as our flight was delayed and didn't arrive at the villa until 1am. Full house clean and new sheets twice during our stay. We had a wonderful time. Car is recommended. "

"Beautifully restored buildings located in spectacular countryside near excellent places to visit. "

"A fabulous villa for several reasons.The owner Emma and her parents whose home this was, were exceptional hosts. Emma communicated directly with us from start to finish by WhatsApp or SMS. We were greeted on arrival with a home made Greek pasta dish which lasted us 2 days! Any questions we had were answered promptly and effectively. Emma is very conscientious. They changed the bed linen and gave the villa a clean twice in a fortnight. The villa itself was exactly as described and even better! We appreciated the veranda area which is huge, and can be isolated from the pool area by a lockable gate. There is plenty of play things for children of all ages. The pool was not cold and extremely well maintained with daily cleaning. AC worked well, used at night. The BBQ house is enormous and kitted out with everything needed including a fridge and washing facilities plus toilet. It was lovely to hear the bells tinkling on the sheep on the hillside around the villa. It’s only a few minutes to local shops by car but you feel as if you are in rural Crete. The views from the veranda especially the sunset in June magnificent. Not may mosquitos in the evenings either. It’s a good position as plenty of lovely places to see and it’s not far to cross to the south side of the island from the villa. "

"The photos do not do the villa justice as the views are amazing and is very private. We were two families with teenage children and it accommodated us all well. Lots of space and well equipt. Myron met us as we arrived and was on hand if needed when we messaged him. Would highly recommend the villa to anyone. Great taverna down the road who welcomed us like family and amazing food at very good prices. You do need a car as is remote but well located to visit the local towns. "

"Excellent stay for three families and grandparents. Three small apartments on ground floor (one double bedone single bed per appartment, one also with sofa bed). Two doubles and two singles on first floor. All rooms with air condition.The small (rocky) beach right below the house has amazingly clear waters, and the pool was great for our kids (7-11 years.). Only 100m to a great taverna (Mimi’s). Also near a really nice sandy beach with a beach bar/restaurant.From first floor, the ocean view is amazing, and we ate on the terrass several nights, at sunset. And the garden is beautifully kept.Only a few and minor ”complaints”. The family kitchen on the first floor is on the smaller side, and there is no fridge next to bbq area (a bit of a hassle to run up and down to fetch cold beverages). Also you need a car to get to a grocery store. But overall a wonderful stay, including hospitality from Petros and Katerina, and the two very cute ”house” cats (loved by the kids). "

"This place was absolutely amazing! The pictures are true as shown. It is a beautiful home and the family is amazing and very welcoming. George was fantastic during the entire process. Had an answer for everything and a guy to help you with whatever you needed. The house was beautiful inside, very clean, comfortable with air conditioning as needed and great showers! Highly recommend the home cooked delivered meal option as it was absolutely amazing. Not only was it delicious the presentation the warmth and sincerity was just lovely. You felt very welcomed into their family. This is their family business that runs like you are part of their family unique experience. The town is quaint and local with options of food and coffee close by, but don’t be afraid to adventure out. We cannot wait to come back to this beautiful home thank you George and your family!"

"We had the most wonderful two weeks staying at Villa Danna. The accommodation was perfect and immaculate. The family were all on hand to assist with anything we needed and insisted on re-cleaning the house and emptying and re-filling the pool after a freak Saharan dust storm. We had three animal loving kids with us, who were thrilled that the family dog was nearby (a short walk across through the olive trees) for strokes and cuddles, and Rosie the cat was often asleep in the shade somewhere. We loved the pool, the eating areas, the upstairs balcony with incredible views of the sunset and the table tennis table got plenty of use too. It was a good walk uphill to the nearest taverna or shop, which was fine for the younger members of the party but tricky for anyone with mobility issues. It was a short drive into Rethymno to lots of bars and restaurants. We would definitely stay there again, after a wonderful two weeks of relaxation and sunshine. "

"Fantastic location on the sea front. Sylvie and Kanakis were the perfect hosts, friendly, helpful and exceptional throughout our week."
