Christina Villas, Steps to Sandy Beach, By ThinkVilla

Lovely villa, just as picturedWalking distance to the beach, supermarket and a choice of restaurants.

The villa was exactly as pictured and very well equipped. The villa was cleaned twice a week which included fresh Sheets and towels. The pool was cleaned daily. The villa is located a short walk from the beach and a number of good tavernas. There is an excellent supermarket a five minute walk away in the main village, which has everything you could need for a self catering holiday. We had a fantastic time, coming back in September, would highly recommend.

The villa was immaculate, very clean, excellent amenities. Staff friendly and helpful

We had a wonderful stay. The villa looks brand new. Beautifully decorated, it has everything you need. Full kitchen. Amazing, spacious bathrooms. Comfortable beds. Super clean. The pool is quite large, about 1.5m deep throughout and you could swim short laps maybe 10m. It's about 15-20 minutes from Rethymno which is a great town to explore... hundreds of restaurants. Even more shops and bars. That said, there's not much near the villa. You could walk to the beach but we didn't. Demetres is a good taverna nearby and Top Market was an excellent supermarket with everything we needed from dishwasher soap to fresh veggies. A few good sites to visit nearby by car. AC works great although you really didn't need it after sundown. Wifi was good on the first floor but didn't reach to the upstairs bedrooms. Communication was okay. The host uses a service which is quite responsive and multilingual to answer all kinds of general questions. But we had a harder time communicating with the host directly for check-in/out. Location for trash and payment of the ECO tax (why they can't wrap that 10.50EUR (for the week) into the rate, I'll never understand--it's true throughout Greece, not an issue with the villa.)

Very nice villa. Good location even without a car Clean, nice pool. I would recommend, and I would definitely go back.
