INFORMATION ABOUT THE AREA
The Villa is located in Missiria area in Rethymno.
Misiria is a consecutive suburb of Rethymnon.
A long sandy beach stretches along the area, which is an extension of vast north coastline that starts near the harbour of Rethymno and extends to the east for 13km till Skaleta beach. It is very well organised, with a plethora of choices for food, drink and beach bars.
Like in all parts of the long beachfront, loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) lay their eggs here. The turtles are threatened with extinction, but the Rethymno Gulf is one of the three most important places for the species in Greece, bearing annually more than 400 nests in average.
The town of Rethymno also offers many sightseeing spots, such as the Fortezza fortress, the Venetian harbour, several mosques, the municipal garden and more. Furthermore, several picturesque villages are within close proximity ideal for walks around the area.

Words cannot describe our holiday to Crete. booked for my mums 60th, and right from the start everyone has been so helpful in making this a special holiday for my mum. firstly the villa is amazing the pictures really do not do it Justice. Its location was perfect for us. Set in quiet street but only a 5 min walk to shops and restaurants on which there is everything you need. Bus stop short walk away. Buses regular and cheap into Rethymno.
The whole team are amazing from organising Balloons, Champagne and gifts for our arrival to suggestions where to eat and visit. House keeping and maintenance do a top job keeping the villa spotless and so friendly. It truly was a magical holiday, not only the villa its location but the team for making sure everything was perfect. A holiday that will be in our memories forever.

The perfect villa for me, my two teenage children and brother. Plenty of room for us all to have our own space but great communal space when we were together. The team looking after the villa were excellent. The villa is a little way out from the main town but taxi were quick and €8. Everyone we meet during our stay was incredibly friendly and helpful. Pool wasn’t heated and was too cold for us to use in October but this may have been due to the storm a couple of days before we arrived. Great stay

Everything was exceptional. The Villa was just wonderful and spotless. The service was outstanding - was my daughters birthday on the day we arrived and our flight was a late one. After communications with the property company and giving them a shopping list they brought a birthday cake, pizza, beer, wine and even a ballon to surprise her. We were all So impressed. The town is about 45 min walk but worth it as so quaint with great backstreet restaurants however there are also a lot locally. Taxis are 8 euros into town. Wonderful holiday enjoyed by all - especially the hot tub and ping pong competitions!! 😊

Tolle Villa & super Service
Die Beschreibung der Villa passt sehr gut, sie ist sehr gut gepflegt und wird auch während des Aufenthalts regelmässig gereinigt. Top Service! In der Nähe gibt es mehrere Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Restaurants. Ins Zentrum sind es 3-4 km, was entweder zu Fuss oder mit dem Taxi problemlos machbar ist. Der Strand war nahezu menschenleer, breit, sauber und auch im Oktober war das Meer noch angenehm warm. Wir können die Villa nur weiterempfehlen. Kostas hat im Vorfeld immer zügig und kompetent geantwortet, vor Ort hat uns Makis bestens betreut und Mariella die gute Fee der Villas hat immer für Sauberkeit und verschiedene Annehmlichkeiten gesorgt. Vielen Dank dem ganzen Team!

Great Villa with all luxury you possibly need
We have stayed in the Villa Amara II together with our adult kids and our mother (age range from 18-81), altogether 9 people.
First to mention: the pictures represent everything exactly as it is!!!
The villa provides enough space for all of us with its 4 bedrooms and 4 baths.
It is very new, so everything is in great condition.
The older ones stayed most of time at the beach on the private sunbeds, the younger ones enjoyed the pool, the table tennis and the jacuzzi.
You have a couple of really good and inexpensive restaurants in walking distance as well as a supermarket. To explore the island it is recommended to hire a car. The kitchen in the house is not really equipped for cooking for 8-10 persons (2 pots and 2 pans), but as the food in the restaurants is not really expensive, you can go out for dinner.
We had fantastic time, everybody could really relax. We will definitely come back.
Thanks also to the Etouri team, who took care of everything.

Family break
we booked a trip to crete at relatively short notice after our previous holiday was cancelled. The villa was perfect for our group with plenty of space for our party of 7 adults- the villa was exactly as described and we enjoyed many happy hours around the lovely pool. The location is excellent with the beach, shops and many tavernas within walking distance. Etouri were excellent making arrangements for a number of activities and booking restaurants to suit our needs.
My only small critisism is the villa is very close to its neighbours and quite overlooked. As a result we felt we needed to keep the terrace blinds down and suffered some late night noise from the neighbouring villa. Neither impacted our enjoyment of the villa overall. Rethymno is beautiful and well worth visiting.

Short family break
Family holiday with 2 young children, and had a fantastic time. The property is literally just a couple of minutes walk from the beach, and is really well presented. Shops and restaurants are 5 minutes walk away. Property managers were fantastic and highly communicative, and made arriving and leaving stress free.

THE Place to Stay!!
This Villa completely exceeded our expectations - normally the photo's are magically brushed up and the reality is quite different. Not with Amara Villa II. Everything you need is there and pristine, you are moments from the beach and the town. There is adequate parking and the pool is beautiful. The Owners and Carers are extremely friendly and they cannot do enough for you. Not a single complaint from any of us and we were 8!!! Highly recommended!! Thank you Etouri!!!
