Holiday Perfection
Review Submitted: March 15, 2008

Trianda Kamares is the perfect antidote to hectic lifestyles. The spacious villa which easily accommodates two families is totally as described, in fact, reality exceeds expectations. It is spotlessly clean, well equipped and set in a quiet and tranquil area with simply stunning scenery of the White Mountains and views to the sea. The pool and outside eating area provide the perfect place to enjoy long, lazy lunches whilst still enabling children to be safely watched. Our four boys (aged 7-16) are very happy to enjoy the simple pleasures of the pool and the local beach which also offers excellent sailing/windsurfing hire.
The local village boasts an excellent shop with the best fresh fruit and vegetables in the area, and several tavernas serving simple but good food. Friendly service locally means you need go no further if you don't want to travel. However, if you wish to explore a car is a necessity, but Plaka is within walking distance if you want to enjoy a drink with your meal, although it is uphill on the return!
We cannot fault any part of our holiday; booking with Sue the owner is friendly and informative, and once in Crete Yvonne and Kevin clean and maintain the villa/pool brilliantly (we have never been to a private villa with such frequent cleaning and laundry changes), as well as being an endless source of friendly and useful information.
Our two families thoroughly enjoy this lovely villa, ever changing mountain views, exploring the most undeveloped part of Crete we have found, and simply relaxing and enjoying the Cretan sun with a drink, a good book (extensive selection also in villa) and the company of good friends. Perfection!
We are booked to return for two weeks this August for the fourth consecutive year - does that not say it all?
