Holidays in Crete are always popular due to a number of factors; the island is south of many Greek Islands meaning better weather and a longer season, it is very family friendly having great beaches and catering for children in tavernas, it offers a range of activities and places for interest from walking to museums, and is not over-developed meaning that holidays in Crete feel private and restful.

Do something different on you Greek villa holiday! Take a boat from Rethymnon to local areas where dolphins are known to assemble. Many trips drop in on the coastal village of Panormo for you to enjoy an authentic seafood lunch.
The palace of Knossos is a must see attraction of Crete, unfortunately in high season it can also be hot and crowded. So be sure to take a bottle of water in with you. The informative signs are good, however an informative guide really can make the resort come alive.
