" great villa with lovely views. Almirida beach was great for snorkeling on left and safe for swimming on right with huge waves when the wind got up. Polis also good snorkeling. small cove the other side of Plaka fantastic, remote,great fish, sandy but no amenities Rethymnon great shopping not just tourist things avoid taverna's on quay side as they are twice the price Chania great but hot, saturday fruit and veg market a must, behind best western hotel at top point of Chania 8-noon a visit to the re-cycled glass factory just past Plaka a must hand luggage items only! our last day today and the clouds have arrived to see us off, must be time to go home. ps floors in villa get very slippery when wet. "Grande vivenda con fermosa vista. Almirida praia foi gran para mergullo do lado esquerdo e segura para nadar na dereita, con enormes ondas cando o vento incrementar-se. Polis tamén bo mergullo. Pequena enseadas do outro lado da Plaka fantástico, remotas, gran peixe, areoso pero non amenidades Rethymnon grandes compras non só turístico cousas evitar Taverna's on quay lado como son o dobro do prezo Chan grande, pero quente, sábado froitas e legumes ten un mercado, detrás da best Western Hotel no principio de Chan punto 8-noon unha visita ao re-ciclo vidro fábrica pasada Plaka ten unha bagagem elementos só! noso último día de hoxe e as nuvens, chegaron a ver-nos fora, debe ser hora de ir para casa. ps pisos en Ville queda moito escorregadio cando mollo.

"The last night of our holiday has arrived and we are very sad to be leaving In Crete for 2 weeks, one of them spent here in lovely villa Sophia . really enjoyed the pool, Our children learned to swim in it- so very successful, local beach very pleasant and safe for children. But definitely worth a trip to Falasarna on the western side, stunning beach, turquoise sea, found a little cove beautiful. "A última noite das nosas vacacións chegaron e estamos moi triste para pode deixalo en Creta durante 2 semanas, un deles gastos aquí na encanto vila Sophos. Realmente guste da piscina, as nosas nenos aprenderon a nadar en-so-lo moi ben substitúe, praia local moi agradable e seguro para nenos. Pero definitivamente val unha visita a Falasarna sobre o lado oeste, guapísimo praia, turquesa do mar, atoparon unha pequena enseadas fermoso.
Too hot when we were here to enjoy Chania although it did look very pretty Moi quente cando estaban aquí para gozar Chan pesar de ter aspecto moi fermosa
Villa is very cleverly designed, great feeling of space we never got on top of each other. thanks also for the selection of books and DVD's it felt like home from home - without the homework. Ville é moi intelixente concibida, unha gran sensación de espazo que nunca tivo enriba uns dos outros. Grazas tamén para a selección de libros e DVD's que sent na casa a partir de casa - sen o traballo da casa.

"Be very careful of wet floors really slippy when wet. views are great the villa is well equipt with ever thing you need. the water park is a must and dunes bar down the road is the best food going, the fish is like moby dick and the staff are really friendly "Teña moito coidado con pisos mollo realmente escorregadio cando mollo. Opinións son moi ben é a vila equipt con cada cousa que precisa. O parque acuático é un deber e dunas bar polo camiño é o mellor alimento indo, o peixe é como Moby Dick e os empregados son realmente amigáveis
avoid the greek place opposite, not good at all. hope you all enjoy your hols as much as we have. evitar o grego lugar oposto, e non bo en todos. Agardamos que apreciar tódolos seus hols tanto coma nós.

" We've had a lovely holiday. the villa is fantastic , beautifully positioned, clean and very well equipped. views - stunning, "Nós tivemos un fermoso vacacións. A Ville é fantástico, excelente ordenada, limpo e moi ben persoal. Visualizacións - atordoamento,
Frankie's recommendations with regard to beaches and places to eat are all worth trying , especially "Dimitris" in Almirida, and "Aposperitis" in Gavalahori. Frankie's recomendacións no que di respecto ás praias e lugares para comer son todo vale tentar, especialmente "Dimitris" en Almirida, e "Aposperitis" en Gavalahori. Our two young boys loved the pool - in fact they loved everything so much they want to live here- Nosos dous mozos tipo amava a piscina - na realidade, todo amei tanto que queren vivir aquí --
so I suspect we will be back again!" entón eu suspeito que será de novo! "

"Oh well it's the last day of our holiday and although we have just spent the most fantastic three weeks here, "Ben, é o último día de nosas vacacións e aínda que ten só gasto a máis fantástico tres semanas aquí,
we could all happily stay for another three. podíamos ficar feliz para todos os outros tres.
The location of Sophia's house is absolutely beautiful. A situación da casa de Sophos é absolutamente fermoso. stunning views, peace and quiet and a lovely villa that provides real home from home comforts. This is our second visit to Crete, and we know for sure it won't be the last. Visits to Chania and Rethymon town were great for both shopping and eating out. Lake kourna is a great day out, providing some breath taking scenery. To be quite honest there is nothing here to dislike. vista guapísimo, paz e tranquilidade e un fermoso vila que ofrece confort real home from home. Esta é a nosa segunda visita a Creta, e nós sabemos con certeza non será a última. Chan e Rethymon Visitas á cidade grande para ambas as compras foron e comer fóra. kourna Lago é un gran día para fóra, dando fôlego tendo algúns escenarios. Para ser sincero, non hai nada aquí para antipatia.
Thanks Ruth and John for providing the opportunity for us to stay in such a beautiful place as Aspro . Thanks Ruth e Xoán de proporcionar a oportunidade para nós, ficar nun lugar fermoso, tais como Aspro.
hope to visit again in the future. Esperamos para visitar de novo no futuro.

" Lovely villa, peaceful, private, with everything we needed (especially once electricity supply sorted out) Frankie provides a great service, is easily contactable and helped with any questions we had (like arranging for our jeep to get towed out of the mud halfway down a steep track to the beach; Arranging for an alternative villa while the electrics were fixed here; "Lovely ville, Pacífico, privado, con todo o que precisávamos (especialmente de electricidade, unha vez arranxarse) Frankie fornece un gran servizo, é facilmente contactáveis e axudou con calquera dúbidas que tiña (como a preparación do noso jipe para obter rebocada para fóra da Lama medio establece un íngreme camiño á praia, para organizar unha alternativa, mentres o Ville eléctricos foron fixadas aquí;
and keeping us updated on our exit options when XL Airways went bust!!!) e nos manter actualizados sobre as nosas opcións cando saia XL Airways foi a falência!)
Frankie will undoubtedly continue to provide an excellent service with her new company .we enjoyed, and recommend: any drive south over the white mountains - spectacular. Frankie ha certamente continuar prestan un excelente servizo coa súa nova empresa. Gozar, e recomendo: calquera unidade sur ao longo dos brancos montañas - espetacular.
Frangokastello (fortress & beach) via the Impros gorge - the road down the side of the mountains is still under construction and a bit hairy in places, but the views over to the south are incredible. Frangokastello (fortaleza e praia), a través do desfiladeiro Impros - o camiño para baixo o lado da montaña aínda está en construcción e en lugares un pouco peludo, pero as opinións sobre a sur son incríveis. Sougia beach - again, amazing drive,(particularly great beach for "au naturel")pebbly (sandy) Sougia praia - de novo, sorprendente unidade, (particularmente grande para a praia "au naturel") seixoso (areoso)

Falassarna beach on west side of island - miles of sand & dunes, busy weekends.well worth visiting Chania for shopping and to eat if like us you prefer small quiet beaches & coves there are only two nearby the best one is just before Kera near the top of the hill park on the road and take the winding track on foot don't be tempted to drive down (as we did ) you won't be able to get back, even in a 4x4! the other is just past Plaka go through the town and bear left. Falassarna praia no lado oeste da illa - quilómetros de area e dunas, ocupado weekends.well visitar Chan para compras e para comer coma nós, se vostede o prefire pequenas praias e enseadas calma que só existen dúas preto o mellor é un pouco antes Kera preto da arriba da outeiro Estación na estrada e levar á liquidação pista a pé, non ser tentando a unidade para abaixo (como fizemos), non será quen de volver, mesmo nun 4x4! o outro é só pasado Plaka ir a través da cidade e soportar esquerda. probably worth asking for directions, but worth it. probablemente val pedir direccións, pero paga a pena.
ENJOY!! Enjoy!

"Hello John & Ruth. "Ola, John & Ruth.
Sitting at the pool in the sunshine thanks for having us over. I hope you will have a lovely time, as we did. enjoyed our stay in your intimate and quiet villa, with no cars, no noise, and the beautiful views I have tried out your kitchen equipment because I love to cook, and nobody wanted to leave Sophia's house. Frankie was super, so friendly and a real character, loved her . Sentado na piscina, no sol gracias por ter-nos. Eu espera que terá un fermoso tempo, como fizemos. Gozar súa estadía na nosa íntimo e pacata vila, sen coches, sen ruído, e as belas paisaxes que estou tentando o equipamento de cociña, porque eu adoro cociñar, e ninguén querías deixar a casa de Sophos. Frankie foi super, de forma agradable e un personagem real, amava.
but I will be in touch after my return to holland. mais vou estar en contacto despois do meu regreso a Países Baixos.
thanks a million times again." un millón de veces gracias de novo. "
