Tolle Villa mit fantastischer Aussicht
Das gepflegte Haus entspricht voll und ganz der Beschreibung. Wir haben die Aussicht auf die Bucht von Chania jeden Tag genossen. Der Pool war sauber und angenehm groß. Das Grundstück liegt blickgeschützt und ruhig. Es gibt nur ein direktes Nachbargebäude. Fußläufig ist ein Dorf mit Tavernen und Minimärkten zu erreichen. Ein Auto ist dennoch von Nöten zum Erreichen der Strände, anderer Ortschaften oder Supermärkte. Der Vermieter stand uns jederzeit hilfreich zur Seite. Dabei gab er auch viele Hinweise zu Ausflügen. Das hatten wir nicht erwartet und verdient eigentlich noch einen Plus-Punkt. Wir würden das Objekt jederzeit wieder buchen.

Fantastisk ferie
Vores familie havde uforglemmelige 12 dage i Villa Minos. Værten George var på alle måder behjælpelig, og samtidig den mest sympatiske vært vi har mødt. Kan virkelig anbefales. TAK…
