The place is just like in the pictures. A beautiful view of the town and see. A lot of space and the children loved the playstation An very friendly host.

We stayed as a family of 5 at Villa Princess and it lived up fully to its expectations. Fantastic location (car essential), ample space, facilities amazing, Photos are very accurate of the stunning location. Georgios was a fantastic host, welcoming, helpful, so kind with treats, and home cooked meals. Couldn't have asked for a better host. Villa was very practical, everything you need included, even extras such as dishwasher and washing tables and mosquito protection was great. Couldn't recommend the villa enough. Plenty of space, clean and maid service was very good. Overall a truly excellent place and definitely a very happy family at the end of the holiday.

Excellent property with amazing views over Rythemno. We had a wonderful time and were very well looked after by Giorgos the villa owner.

We spent one week in this Villa overlooking the town of Rethymno as two small families of 4 adults and 4 young children in total. The size of the property was ideal for this amount of guests or alternatively 6 adults would fit comfortably.Without a doubt the selling point to the this villa is the view, there is an amazing panaramic view of the Cretan Mountains to the West, the Northern Coastline of Crete and an overlooking view of the lovely city of Rethymno and its Fortezza. I can't imagine there is a better view in any villa throughout Crete.Another positive of the Villa is the outside space. The barbecue is ideal for cooking and there is plenty of outside seating for dining. The swimming pool is a decent size and access is restricted to children, it is however not heated so a little chilly in April! This would be ideal in the middle of a hot greek summer. The outside space is perfect for young children to play in safety and with lots of childrens toys available.The villa itself is homely and has been well looked after in spite of its age. There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms, which is well suited for the number of guests the villa caters for. There is lots of traditional decor and is cleaned twice a week to a very good standard.The local area is a great place to spend a holiday and I would recommend a hire car for the duration as the Villa is a about 3km uphill from the town. A taxi is however only 5 euros if required.The most memorable part of the booking has to be the hospitality of the host, Giorgios. On the first evening he met us at the Villa with local cheese, breads and Raki to make us feel welcome from the very beginning. This continued through the week as he brought local dishes for us to try and recommended a really good fish restaurant in Rethymno where he turned up with a birthday cake for one of our guests. A brilliant host, in a lovely villa on a beautiful island. In summary we definitely left with a love for Crete and would recommend this Villa on the view and outside space alone.
