Despite our late arrival around 23.00 we were received at the villa to welcome us and to show us around. A nice welcome present was prepared. The villa is beautiful, the garden is magnificent, the pool is lovely. All you need is available, there is weekly room service, and the garden and pool are taken care of every 2 days by very friendly and helpful people. (Just mind: protect yourselves against insects, the street in front has quite some circulation -also buses and trucks- and there are many dogs in the neighbourhood producing a significant amount of noise)

Un jardin magnifique et une piscine très agréable pour de vrais vacances reposantes
Malgré quelques petits défauts (équipement de la cuisine légèrement défectueux) et un petit peu trop de bruits (chiens de village, camions passant sur la route) en journée, la maison est idéalement située.
Très propre et un accueil et service 4 étoiles, quelques atouts pour passer de très bonnes vacances.
Proche des plages et le l'autoroute principale.

Piscine sympa
Belle prestation mais un peu vintage. Il manquait la télé dans la chambre, le sèche cheveux et le téléphone comme annoncés dans l'annonce. Malgré tout le gîte est agréable . Peu d'échange possible avec les propriétaires qui ne parlent pas anglais et très peu le français dommage.

Dear Mr. Jean-Olivier Morassi, thank you very much for your stay in the traditional style Villa Melini. Please note that there is a TV in the living room area, but not in the bedrooms. We would have delivered a hairdryer if requested by email or phone. We are really sorry for the lack of communication with the owners. Best wishes from Crete
