The Crete region

Crete (Greek: ???t?, transliteration: Krete, modern transliteration Kriti) is the largest of the Greek islands and the fifth largest island in the Mediterranean Sea at 8,336 km² (3,219 square miles).

Crete was the centre of the Minoan civilization (ca. 2600–1400 BC), the oldest Greek civilization.

Today Crete is one of the thirteen peripheries of Greece and a significant part of the economy and cultural heritage of Greece. While it retains its own local cultural traits (such as its own music and dialect), Cretan identify themselves as Greeks.

For centuries the island was known by its Italian name Candia, from the medieval name of its capital Heraklion, Chandax. In Classical Latin it was called Cretan and in Turkish Girit.

Crete is the location of significant ancient history, which provides popular modern day tourist destinations. They include the Minoan sites of Knossos and Phaistos, the classical site of Gortys, the Venetian old city and port of Chania, the Venetian castle at Rethymno, and the Samaria Gorge.

The Rethymno / Roussospiti area

Roussospiti, 6 kilometres far from Rethymno, is located on the roots of Vrissinas, 300 m. above the sea level. Among the few places in Rethymno, where the Venetian era masterpieces are perfectly preserved, you should visit the Venetian fountain in the centre of the village, the wall painted church of Panagia, as well as the Venetian buildings in the place “Kamara”.

Leaving the city centre to the east, we find, direction right, Theotocopoulou Street, which we keep following.

Going up the road leading to the hill, 7 kilometres from the diversion sign to Mikra Anoyia, we reach the newly preserved Monastery of Agia Irini, next and south of the drop having the same name.

Following the same road we reach the Venetian buildings and the fountain in Roussospiti after two kilometres.

From the same point we continue to reach Chromonastiri, where one can visit the churches of Panagia Kera and Agios Eftihios, as well as the Venetian Villa Clodio. Leaving Chromontastiri, 1,5 kilometers south we arrive at the deserted Myloi village. To visit Myloi one has to cross the path and the gorge in which the village was built. The village was named after the many water mills having existed; when visited one can enjoy the rich plantation and its picturesque view.

Getting on the road again to Rethymno, we meet to the left side the church of Panagia Halevi and the ruins of the monastery. The same road will lead us to Missiria area. Rethymno is 3 kilometres away from Missiria.

“Wauw. A fantastic villa, the pool and sunny on one side, the shade and the wind from the sea on theo” A excellent location. The villa is very well situated and offers the leisure you need after all the stress of daily life. It's extremely comfortable, everything you need is present end it is large with all the comfort. Very nice view towards the sea with shade and the wind from the sea providing nice balconies to relax and to read. On the other side the sun with a fantastic pool, providing a lot of joy. Rethymno is just a 10 minutes drive. And Georgios. You are really welcome. Fruits and vegetables from his own garden, wine and raki and a simple: "the key is on the door". Your holiday starts immediately. Excellent value for money. When we return to Crete, we return to ALONI villas as well.

“Peace,relaxation, good food and warmth,(the welcome as well as the weather)” Wonderful villa and it had everything we needed. Giorgos was so welcoming, and it was so lovely having melons and tomatoes left for us from the farm. We would certainly recommend this villa. However, it's a steep walk to the local taverna and there are no buses so you are completely reliant on car. The villa would not be suitable for disabled as the bedrooms are downstairs (we were in Clio 2) . Besides all the usual tourist visits like Knossos there are a few must do's..... Visit chromonasteri and look round the olive mill and have coffee under the olive trees and visit the military museum. Also a must is a swim and pedalo around kourna lake and visit the village of Lappa and nearby waterfalls at argiroupoli, which we only discovered via one of the leaflets for the yellow train but was not in the guide books.

“Fabulous accommodation, really looked after” The villa was gorgeous, set beautifully in a small village high in the mountains. it was immaculately kept and our every need was catered for. Everything was done discreetly and well, cleaning / linen, the pool general pastoral care. All of our arrangements were made really easy and trouble-free. Aloni Villas were a pleasure to deal with and I will definitely do this again.

“A relaxing stay,in fabulous accomodation.” The welcome and hospitality we received from George and his family was second to none.We were given produce from the family farm,including some excellent red wine and Raki.The accomodation suited our needs perfectly,we wanted a relaxing week in the sun away from the bustle of life.We particularly liked the fact that the villa was situated in a village in the hills as you felt part of a community rather than a tourist. You do need a car and because of its location,this property is not suitable for anyone with disabilities or walking difficulties.All your basic needs can be found in the village,but if you need more choice Rethymnon is only about 10minutes by car.The villa was well equiped,pool lovely,would reccomend to anyone,hopefully we will return.

“Exceptional villa in lovely village in the hills!” This was our first holiday in Crete and once we got out of the airport, used to the roads and arrived at our destination, the villa and it's location were truly picture postcard perfect! We have 3 young children (7 and twins 4) and wanted a villa with a pool away from the hustle and bustle of the normal resorts. We couldn't have asked for better accomodation. The photos don't do the property justice. It was clean, well presented, tastefully decorated and very private. The pool wasn't large but actuallly a perfect size for our girls to feel comfortable and play happily in and for us adults to have a good swim and splash with them. Aceess to the pool from the lower and upper terraces can also be restricted by lockable gates meaning that this was also less of a worry for us. George (the owner) and his family were lovely. Always friendly and welcoming and we were spoilt with fresh fruit from his fruit trees and home made cakes and jam! The village was small and friendly with 2 Tavernas - good food at both and a little shop which seemed to sell most holiday self catering essentials. We all had a lovely and relaxing time and would be keen to stay at Aloni Villas again if we return to this area. Highly recommended!

“Great villa, Great location, Great view - Amazing vacation!” We stayed at Clio villa #2 from June 29th until July 5th and have truly enjoyed our stay. First, the location is great as it's in a small village on the top of a mountain, but it's only about 10 min from Rethymno, so you have the country and the city in the same landscape. The view from the villa's balcony was incredible : we could see the mountains, the city and most importantly the sea! The villa was also very comfortable with its 3 rooms and 3 bathrooms. And the owners, George and Irene were very generous. We were there for our honeymoon and we were welcomed with sparkling wine, flowers, fresh fruits and cookies! They were very kind and ensured nothing was missing! I would strongly recommend this villa for a couple who wants to escape in a heavenly decor or for a familly trip!

“highly recommended” a super villa - out of the hussle and bustle of Rethymno up in the mountains (Car defo needed!!) - about a 7min drive or so. Lovely views, and with a local spar within walking distance, 5 mins walk down the (steep) hill. Unless you drive everywhere, the steep hilliness of this hillside setting could be a problem for the less able, but we didn't find it a problem. Owner lives close by and was very friendly and helpful, but never intrusive. He often left us fresh veggies from his farm on our doorstep! Quality of accomodation is lovely - one of the nicest villa's we've been to. Only downside was that there is only air con in the lounge - and not in the bedrooms downstairs. There is also only 1 fan, which we had to fight over as the place gets sweltering at night! All in all though, superb. Highly recommended.
