Lavris Vacation Packages

I had a good time this past weekend at Delina Mountain Resort in Anogia, south of Rethymno, here on Crete. But I have learned, once again, not to trust Apple Maps, or Google Maps. Both of them took me down a closed road with construction equipment and a missing bridge. Normally I might find that amusing, but I was anxious to get to the resort after a 2 ½ hour drive. I chose my own way around that mess and arrived at the resort an hour later. This was a quiet and peaceful place with only 13 rooms. I think it was just me and maybe two other guests. The cafe, across the manmade pond, kept busy all the time, presumably from local villagers coming to eat. The pork chops were on par with pork chops at most village tavernas. The fava beans I had the next day were quite good. The owner of this resort is a famous Greek singer, but I didn’t get his name. He performed at the cafe Sunday evening and well over 100 people came to watch and enjoy food and drink. I listened from my private balcony. The breakfast was room service only, which I ordered when I checked in. I chose 9 am for my delivery time and there was a knock on my door at exactly 9 am. I’m impressed with their punctuality. The breakfast buffet was closed because of Covid, the same with their indoor heated pool. All in all, a relaxing weekend.

This is a quiet, spacious villa with a private pool overlooking an incredible view. Our hosts were overly accommodating very quick in response to questions or needs. Breakfast brought to us each day surpassed expectations loaded with plenty of food and local cuisine. Bali is 5 minutes away for great beaches, shops and dining and you’re pretty central to everything on Crete. Easily drivable to major cities, attractions and local airports. Villa cat we nicknamed “Artemis” visited us every evening with welcoming meows. Would strongly recommend to anyone looking for privacy vs crazy busy resorts.

Very close to city center, easy to walk everyiwhere. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Nice rooms.

The hotel exceeded all our expectations. The room was impeccably clean, spacious, and beautifully designed. The view during breakfast was breathtaking, like something out of a painting. The staff were incredibly friendly, especially Theonimfi, who went above and beyond to enhance our stay. She provided us with excellent recommendations for local spots that were off the beaten path, just as we had requested. Her suggestions made our experience truly special. I absolutely loved the hotel, and if you're seeking a peaceful, charming, and welcoming place to stay, this is the perfect choice.
