Nearby are the amazing monastery of arkadi and also the Archaeological site of Elutherna which is still revealing its Archaic  secrets from 900 BCE.

We did not hear even the neighbours from adjoining villas,

You can only ask for a villa without children as direct neighbours (as we did),

And the second bedroom is practically a tiny extension of the master bedroom with just a set of pull-out single beds leaving no space even to open the door.

There are two bedrooms on the first floor of each villa and 2 bathrooms as well as a fully equipped kitchen and fridge in the downstairs living area.

A high chair and baby cot were waiting for us upon our arrival.

but there are many many tavernas in the local town and Rethymno.

Rethymno town is about 20 minutes drive and we had dinner there on two occasions in the old part of town which is very lively and full of excellent tavernas as well as the sprawling ancient 16th century citadel.

though close enough to town
- Upscale
- Enough parking space, even close to your own villa where you can park your mandatory car.

So, we ended up using the sofa bed in the living room as the second bedroom which itself was somewhat uncomfortable.

In our case, warming up baby food using regular stove was very uncomfortable
- no 24/7 on duty reception, so if you need smth urgently, you sometimes need to search for someone or call a mobile

Carme Villas declared as 5-star aparthotel.
