“Heavenly Aloe Villa”

Reviewed 1 Sep 2018

Family with one teenage Daughter, our first time in Crete, and we stayed at the beautiful Villa Aloe in Prines. The villa, pool, and gardens are immaculately kept. An amazing roof terrace, just right for starlit nights. Everything you could need is provided for in the Villa. Thei the owner is a very welcoming Lady, and we found everyone in the village to be helpful. Veranta, and Giannis Restaurants both serve excellent food, with great surroundings, and warm welcome. Mini market is very good for your basic needs too, and again very helpful staff. We loved it.

“A great place”

Reviewed 23 Sep 2017

We stayed in villa aloe for two and a half weeks in August. It is a wonderful place in a most convenient and beautiful location. The house is only minutes away from the village of prines and three local tavernas where we ate most of the time and they are worth visiting. There is a local mini market and butchers where we did a lot of our shopping. Rethymno is 10 mins away by car. The owner Thei is a wonderful lady and so helpful. We would happily go back to villa aloe again

“A lovely house, a gorgeous setting and every amenity we needed. Highly recommended!”

Reviewed 22 Jun 2013

We loved staying at Aloe villa. It offered every convenience for a family holiday, such as easy access to beautiful beaches (5 mins drive), to the village supermarket, restaurants and cafes(300m), to a big city(Rethymno,10mins drive). At the same time it was serene enough or us to feel the peace and quiet associated with an island holiday. Dusk, with only the birds singing and no other noise was our favourite part of the day. The house itself was impeccably clean and well-kept and easy to get around for our toddler. We are planning to return next summer with friends.
