Lovely experience
The villa was perfect, very spacious and well appointed. We had personal service from the owner who spent time introducing us to the area and helping us decide what to do. Nothing was too much trouble. Although the weather was not blazing hot the pool was very welcome .

Quiet little paradise close to lively Rethymno
We very much enjoyed our stay in Villa Mitos in the Diktamos Villas resort. It is a cosy apartment with enough space for two persons. The terrace upstairs has a nice view to the mountains and the sea; if it is windy, there is a smaller terrace downstairs that is more protected. The owners Kostas and Maria are very helpful; Kostas provides a lot of information for trips in the surroundings. Maria was busy with the family's restaurant Knossos, which is located at the Venetian harbour in Rethymno. You should definitely pay the restaurant a visit! The food is delicious and Maria is a very charming host. The resort also includes a swimming pool that looks lovely but which we didn't use as it was too cold in the end of October. But there is enough to see around Rethymno, and Rethymno itself is a very pretty place, too.

Ruhig trotzdem urban
Nette persönliche Betreuung durch Kostas, netter Ort, beschauliche Taverne an der Kirche, einfache aber bekömmliche Küche, ohne PKW eher nicht empfehlenswert. Unterkunft gut ausgestattet, jederzeit persönlich betreut

Schöne Villa in ruhiger Lage
Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt in der Villa Mitos sehr genossen. Für 2 Personen ist die Villa sehr geräumig und gut ausgestattet. Sie befindet sich in einer sehr ruhigen Lage, deswegen ist die Anreise mit einem Mietwagen von Vorteil. Fußläufig erreichbar sind auch kleinere Supermärkte und Bäcker. Besonders hervorzuheben ist der Balkon, der einen schönen Blick sowohl auf das Meer als auch auf die Berge bietet. Wir würden die Villa auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen :)

Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!
Es waren drei wunderbare Wochen in der Villa Mitos. Wir wurden trotz später Ankunft sehr herzlich empfangen. Im Haus fanden wir einen herrlich duftenden Blumenstrauß zur Begrüßung vor, im Kühlschrank warteten Salat, Melone, Getränk und allerlei Gebäck auf uns, sodass wir uns sehr willkommen fühlten! Das Haus ist wie auf den Bildern eingerichtet, es war blitzsauber und von der Terrasse hatten wir einen herrlichen Blick in die Berge und aufs Meer. Der Eigentümer pflegt das Grundstück liebevoll, sodass alles in einem sehr guten Zustand ist, außerdem nahm er sich immer Zeit für unsere Fragen. Da die Küche doch recht einfach ausgestattet ist, besuchten wir abends umliegende Tavernen, die sehr zu empfehlen sind! Unbedingt sollte hierbei auch noch die Familien Taverne Knossos in Rethymno erwähnt werden, die Karte ist überschaubar, aber das Essen von sehr hoher Qualität und die Freundlichkeit ist wirklich außerordentlich. Wenn wir uns noch etwas gewünscht hätten, so wären das Liegestühle auf unserer Terrasse gewesen, allerdings sind diese im Poolbereich ausreichend vorhanden. Wir werden wiederkommen und freuen uns schon jetzt drauf! Vielen Dank an die Gastgeber Familie für die schöne Zeit 💐🙏
