Fantastically peaceful
We had a fantastically peaceful 2 weeks in Villa Elena. The view of the sea to one side, mountains on the other and a tranquil valley in front of you cannot be matched. There are a few other houses in the valley but we hardly ever saw anyone and none of them are close enough to intrude in any way. But a 2 minute drive takes you to a small but adequate supermarket, a bit further and you have tavernas, the highway to Rethimno and the beach.
The villa itself is compact but very comfortable. Everything you could need, from towels to a toaster, books to blankets, even a washing machine and dishwasher is available. All is clean and in working order. The building is in excellent condition, much better than one usually expects from Mediterranean accommodation! The pool is small and only warmed by the sun - but very welcoming on a hot day. There are patios all round the villa so you can always find shade or sun.
Elena and her husband came by twice a week to clean and often brought real home-made dishes. We arrived 5 hours late because of a flight delay but Elena was still waiting for us with a smile when we arrived at midnight, you really cannot hope for a better or more friendly host.
