Great property, everything you can need. Little Village has a small store, butchers and pharmacy. Plus 3 restaurants- so all you need. A few mins drive from the property. Location is well set for days at the beach and nice evenings out.

Well equipped villa. Fantastic for families with toddlers. Tastefully decorated.
Lovely villa. Equipped with all necessary equipment for holidaying with small children. Owners were extremely helpful and gave us some great restaurant suggestions. The children loved the slide, swing and see-saw. Pool was gorgeous and the housekeeping as excellent.

Fantastic property, with everything thought of for all ages. Manolis, our host, met every need. He even ordered us a take away on first night as we arrived late! Could not ask for a more helpful person. Mr Michalis attended to the pool and garden everyday and ensured all was in order! What a great holiday! Thank you for your kind welcome and hospitality.

Marina Villa
Superb villa with everything you could need for a home from home stay. We stayed as a family group of 6 with 1 toddler. Plenty of baby supplies and play equipment. We were met at the property at 1.30am and given a brief tour of the property. Pool was cleaned daily, and mid week clean of villa. Manilo answered every query promptly and went out of way to make our stay perfect. Would highly recommend. Only downside was the village with Taverna and bakery was in walking distance but no footpath and road narrow and dark, so wasn’t suitable to walk in the evening with a pushchair or small children.

Alles prima
Das Haus ist sehr schön und hochwertig. Von den 3 Schlafzimmer ist eins sehr klein und eigentlich nicht für 2 Personen gemacht. Der Garten und die verschiedenen Sitzmöglichkeiten sind sehr angenehm, Pool etwas zu winzig, aber zum Abkühlen völlig ausreichend. Der Ort Pigi hat ein gutes Restaurant und Supermarkt sowie Metzger. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen. Sehr empfehlenswert

Tolles Haus mit gutem Support!
Wir hatten 14 sehr schöne Tage in der Villa Marina! Es wurde auf alle wünsche eingegangen. Die Lage ist toll und man hat viele Ausflugsmöglichkeiten. Das Zimmer unter dem Dach hat keine Tür, was leider vorab nirgends stand und einen kleinen Wermutstropfen darstellt. Wir werden Sicher wieder kommen!

Perfect villa for big groups
We were two families, 7 altogether, and found the villa to be a fantastic choice. The villa itself was beautiful, the outdoor cooking area got plenty of use and everyone spent hours and hours in the pool. The attention to detail and thoughtful touches throughout made it a brilliant stay. Highly recommended.

Sehr gut! Wir kommen wieder!
Es hat einfach an nichts gefehlt! Das Haus ist genau so wie auf den Bildern abgebildet. Es ist perfekt für eine 6-köpfige Familie oder Gruppe von Freunden. Ohne Auto ist man allerdings aufgeschmissen! Der Strand oder LIDL sind jeweils gute 10 Minuten Autofahrt entfernt. Der einzige Kritikpunkt von uns ist das Zimmer unterm Dach. Es hat keine Tür und somit keinen Schallschutz. Bei Problem wurde immer sofort geholfen. Wir kommen wieder!

Toll ausgestattete Villa auch für Kinder
Wir sind mit 6 Erwachsenen und einem Baby gereist und müssen sagen, dass die Villa keine Wünsche offen lässt. Es gab für drinnen und draußen Spielzeug, aber auch Kleinigkeiten wie ein hochstuhl, Kinderwagen, etc haben uns das Reisen erleichtert. Bei den Erwachsenen war der Grillplatz mit Steinofen ein Highlight, den wir regelmäßig genutzt haben. Den Pool haben wir nicht benutzt weil uns das Wetter zu frisch war. Auf jeden Fall braucht man ein Auto; da es fußläufig keine Geschäfte oder Restaurants gibt. Wir können die Villa auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen.

Fantastic villa for families near Rethymnon
Villa is exactly as shown on the pictures. All is of high quality. Very nice garden with pool. House owner are very friendly. Gardening and pool was cleant every day. Housekeeping three times during our 2 weeks stay. As a conclusion, we can only highly recommand this villa which is in a quiet place, but you are only a few minutes drive away from the beach and Rethymnon. Car is highly recommended (the agency is working with a local car rental company which has very competetive prices).

We spent a family week in July at Manolis’ house. House is very nice, spotless and fully equipped. There is beautiful garden with tarace and outdoor kitchen. Surrounding is calm and pleasant. Beaches and shops within 10 minutes distance. The sea area is very nice and not overcrowded. We highly recommend staying in this house with kids. Thank you Manolis!

Fabulous family holiday
We stayed at this wonderful villa with our two children (6 and 8). The villa itself was fantastically well equipped, but thanks to the amazing weather we spent most of our time enjoying the pool and bbq area. We had such a fantastic holiday, were made to feel incredibly welcome, and would love to return soon.

Fantastic villa with great pool and garden
We had a fantastic holiday staying here. We particularly loved the pool and garden area, which was very pretty with so many flowers, and the children really liked the play area. The villa was very well equipped inside, with comfy beds. My 7 year old loved his attic bedroom! The owners were very welcoming, we were met on arrival to show us the villa and answer any questions, and he came to say goodbye with a gift when we departed.
