Reviewed 6 Sep 2017

Based in an authentic venetian time village by Rethymno (Maroulas), Villa Candice is a beautiful villa where luxury, confort, space, quietness and security give you the pleasure to fully enjoy every moment of your holiday. Christian, the owner, welcomes you very nicely ; he makes sure that you feel immediately "at home". For cooking lovers, the kitchen is a real pleasure with professional equipment. Outside, the view is unique on lands and the sea. The swimming pool and the pool house invite you to relax days and nights. Villa Candice was an unforgetable little paradise on earth for the whole family this summer. We are already planning to go back next summer.

When, after his departure, we discover and collect more than 400 cigarets tubs in all the inside and outside flowers pots of the property and that he would not be welcomed anymore, (he should not be allowed to rent any property as his stay was a disaster for our flowers.) , he wrote this revieuw..at his image !!
