What we did on our lovely holiday
We absoutely loved Villa Melody and I am sure Villa Rhapsody is equally lovely. The property is very well equipped, and furnished, and maid service every day was very welcome. Both garden and pool are immaculate and the location is excellent - right in the middle of town, so no faffing about with driving - though you would hardly know it. We will definitely be booking again, so please don't, or the villas may not be available when we want them!
Thank you amazing guests! We loved so much having you with. Us and we hope to see you back to ether villa Melody or Rhapsody.
Amazing vacation!!!!!!!!
Our stay at villa Rhapsody has been absolutely wonderful and we only wish we had more days to enjoy it!The warm welcome including the goodies from Yioula was GREAT!!! Everything we needed was there. We felt at home. The weather added the extra charm. We will come back and go to the bar they keep for 24 years now, the Rock House and party until 5am!!!
We are recommending the villa to anybody who wants to feel in heaven here in Crete!
Thank you, we are blessed with guests such as yourselves! Hope to see you again soon!!!!!
Homely comfort and privacy
We were a family of four, with two children aged 3 and 6. We had a lovely stay, this house was perfect for us, as it had all the facilities we needed for a relaxing holiday. Wonderful hosts too, who did everything they could to make our holiday perfect. Highly recommended!

October at the Rock House
We evaluated many different places to stay for our vacation and chose the Rock House based upon the photographs and the quality of Yioula’s responses to our many questions. The Rock House turned out to be a great choice. Although it has the feel of a secluded villa, there are many restaurants, clubs and shops just outside the gate. The beach is easy walking distance and it is a short hop to town. We were in Create late in the season and had a few days of rainy weather, but enjoyed sitting by the fireplace reading. The other days we were all over the island. The real value of the Rock House is Yioula. She and her husband live on the property and appear to be able to solve any problem or fulfill any need. We would definitely stay here again when we go back to Crete.
We are very pleased to have accommodated this wonderful couple to our villa! They are amazing people and would love to be able to have them stay with us again and with the highest priority. They took extra care of the house they were very kind and polite and they also gave a generous tip to the cleaning lady which was something unique.
A perfect vacation
We stayed at Villa Rhapsody from November 8 until November 25 and it was Heaven on Earth. We found the village of Platanias to be relaxing and delightful. The Villa was absolutely perfect, a beautiful home away from home. The Villa owners were so helpful. They found car rentals and scheduled taxis for us. We enjoyed our time at the Villa so much we didn't want to leave. We will definitely be returning again to the villas.
High expectations exceeded
Everything was in good order with some pleasant surprises on top.
Apart from that, the hosts were both very friendly and helpful and showed hospitality beyond what normally can be expected.
Location
Villa 'Rhapsody' is in the most touristic village of Chania prefecture, Platanias. It is only 3 minutes walking distance away from a sandy beach which is unfolded in an extent of many kilometres and in which the visitor enjoys moments of relaxation in isolated beaches, moments of adventure with water sports in the well-organised beaches or moments of frantic amusement in innumerable beach bars.
The village of Platanias, which in combination with its preferential place in the prefecture and the splendid beaches, is classified as one of the most touristic parts of Greece and you can find all services needed.
Other Activities: playgrounds, minigolf, waterpark, bowling alley, horse back riding, museums and so much more!
