We had an amazing time at the villa Georgia, travelling as a family of five, children’s ages ranging from 11 to 3.
From the moment we booked Peter could not have been more helpful, we had to make adjustments to the duration because of our airline rescheduling flights, he could not have been more helpful. I would also recommend using the car hire that Peter suggests, having travelled to multiple destinations, I have to say this was the easiest car pick up and drop off I’ve ever experienced.
The Villa is beautiful, very quiet and relaxing, everything you could possibly need to recharge the batteries. If you do need Internet access the Wi-Fi was excellent, three children all competing for Netflix time, not one outage or crying child! I also managed to work one morning from the Villa, not a problem at all.
The outdoor space is fantastic, the pool is great, the sun lounges, the outdoor kitchen, the shower and toilet area, everything you could need for a relaxing day around the pool watching the children have fun.
The air conditioning worked incredibly well, shutters on the windows to create peaceful dark rooms for sleeping, my children even slept in!
Peter was always contactable, we had one small power outage in the villa that related to the village itself, Peter was on hand and somehow managed to get this fixed within one hour! I also have to say the cleaning of the Villa was brilliant, the lady who came was incredibly thorough, but also very friendly and accommodating of our comings and goings.
Afrata is a very small place with two tavernas, a small shop, but within easy reach of the next small town. I would recommend the beach close to the Villa, very small, free sun lounges, and crystal clear water for some spectacular swimming. A little cafe for food and refreshments.
Writing this review just makes me sad I’m not still there with the family, superb holiday, amazing villa, spectacular island of Crete, we will be back at some point.
