Thank you Maria for your kindness. The house is new and has all the necessary equipment. We were able to relax and enjoy this superb setting. ##### Peret This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Kamil 20 Sept 2024 #### Average, wouldn't go again Absolutely spotless, brand new -we didn't get along with the owner -sea view blocked with a wall, which frankly was ridiculous -you can see and hear between villas, it's not really peaceful and definitely not quiet -annoying key system, where the door locks behind you, but the key can't be kept in the lock when you use the swimming pool and other areas. Easy to lock yourself out. ##### Kamil This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vardges 22 Jul 2025 #### Traumhafter Aufenthalt Nachdem wir 7 Tage im Haus Meli & Gio 2 verbringen durften, waren wir die zweite Woche In Meli & Gio 1. Für mich gibt es keinen ruhigeren Ort um runterzukommen. Das Haus ist perfekt für 2-4 Personen und hat alles was man braucht um einen tollen Urlaub zu verbringen. Kostas hat jeden Morgen den Pool gereinigt, sodass der Pool immer sauber war & wir uns einfach wohl fühlten. Maria & Kostas sind wirklich tolle Gastgeber mit der Liebe zum Detail. Wirklich tolle Empfehlungen für das leckerste Gyros, Pizza und natürlich die schönsten Strände Kretas fernab vom Massentourismus. Maria & Kostas, VIELEN DANK! Wir sehen uns definitiv nächstes Jahr wieder.️ ##### Vardges ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Fortezza Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Fortezza-Hotel.h1486785.Hotel-Information) > > [Grecotel Creta Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Grecotel-Creta-Palace.h1100705.Hotel-Information) > > [Rimondi Grand Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Rimondi-Grand-Resort-Spa.h4925255.Hotel-Information) > > [Rethymno Mare & Water Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Rethymno-Mare-Water-Park.h1099275.Hotel-Information) > > [Camari Garden Hotel Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Camari-Garden-Hotel-Apartments.h31951529.Hotel-Information) > > [Mary Hotel & Mary Royal Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Mary-Hotel-Mary-Royal-Suites.h31114078.Hotel-Information) > > [Creta Royal - Adults only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Creta-Royal-Adults-Only.h921756.Hotel-Information) > > [White Olive Elite Rethymno - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-White-Olive-Elite-Rethymno.h45863990.Hotel-Information) > > [Cretan Sun](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Cretan-Sun.h4629371.Hotel-Information) > > [Kapsaliana Village Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Kapsaliana-Village-Hotel.h3096258.Hotel-Information) > > [Pepi Boutique Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Pepi-Boutique-Hotel.h3512277.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Rithymna Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Aquila-Rithymna-Beach.h1851789.Hotel-Information) > > [Rethymno Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Rethymno-Village.h4973216.Hotel-Information) > > [May Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-May-Beach-Hotel.h31105831.Hotel-Information) > > [Grecotel Casa Adele](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Grand-Leoniki-Residence-By-Grecotel.h14677426.Hotel-Information) > > [Avli Lounge Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Avli-Lounge-Apartments.h2946933.Hotel-Information) > > [Atermono Boutique Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Atermono-Boutique-Resort-Spa.h26893136.Hotel-Information) > > [Amnissos Residence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Bomo-Amnissos-Residence.h55521801.Hotel-Information) > > [The Syntopia Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-The-Syntopia-Hotel.h11254821.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Ideon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Hotel-Ideon.h31061668.Hotel-Information) > > [AMIRA LUXURY RESORT & SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-AMIRA-LUXURY-RESORT-SPA.h76969417.Hotel-Information) > > [Grecotel LUXME White](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Grecotel-LUXME-White-Palace-All-Inclusive.h2573709.Hotel-Information) > > [Rimondi Boutique Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Rimondi-Boutique-Hotels.h4564685.Hotel-Information) > > [Apollon Hotel Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Apollon-Hotel-Apartments.h3657311.Hotel-Information) > > [Scaleta Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Scaleta-Beach.h13420158.Hotel-Information) > > [Azul Eco Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Gortyna-Hotel.h2336536.Hotel-Information) > > [Thalassi Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Thalassi-Hotel.h12639637.Hotel-Information) > > [Palazzino Di Corina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Palazzino-Di-Corina.h1439236.Hotel-Information) > > [CHC Imperial Hotel – Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-CHC-Imperial-Palace-Hotel-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h40036846.Hotel-Information) > > [Caramel, A Grecotel Resort to Live](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-CARAMEL-Grecotel-Boutique-Resort.h8421076.Hotel-Information)
