Villa Francesca
Directions to the villa were ok, but it would help if it was signposted like other villas, that would be a great help Upon arrival, the bin was very dirty, we bleached it 3 times. My wife advised me not to view the toilet brush as it was disgusting. There were cobwebs around the TV which hadn't been cleaned for quite some time, also cobwebs in the cupboards. The garden was overgrown. I could not hang shirts in the wardrobe as there was a pile of damp bedding on top of the spare quilts that were in the wardrobe and I was not hanging shirts in there. The tray for the oven was filthy, rusty and looked as if it had seen better days......I will say the villa would be ideal if the cleaning / gardening team were not so comfortable with the arrangements with the owner and applied their trade in the right way

Calme, emplacement idéal
Séjour au calme avec vue fantastique , maison isolée mais proche de toutes les commodités et voies rapides à 5 km . Jardin agréable, intime, piscine bien orientée, terrasse couverte avec vue sur la vallée....location idéale, propre, bien agencée, pour qui aime le calme mais désire également découvrir la Crete de l'arriere pays . Ne pas hésiter à emprunter les petites routes de montagne, il ya tant de choses à voir . Cote sud accessible facilement également . Proprétaires facilement joignables par mail, aimables et de bons conseils ! Séjour parfait, mais trop court ... à refaire .
