Excellent villa in a great location

Really enjoyed our stay. The villa was lovely and clean and in a great location, car essential. The pool is a great size and was very quite. Plenty of places to eat close by (short car drive). Louisa was excellent in her communication. We had a slight problem with one of the shutters however this was rectified very quickly after contacting Louisa (thank you). I would highly recommend staying in this beautiful villa.

A lovely villa in beautiful Crete

We enjoyed our stay in the villa very much, it had everything we needed. The place is spacious, clean and well looked after and Louise easy to contact. The garden and separating it bushes give sort of privacy from guests staying in other villas and the pool never was overcrowded. We ate in places recommended by Louise, but our favourite one was tavern near the villa, which serves authentic and hearty Greek dishes. Make sure to try it!

Cretian villa with view and much more

Spectacular views from poolside and villa balcony. Well equipped kitchen not lacking for anything. Spacious lounge and dining area. The air conditioning unit probably needs a service in this room. Bedrooms were excellent sized beds and comfy firm matresses. Airconditioning was perfect. Pool was a great size and always quiet and the views towards the sea were spectacular. Behind the house is a dramatic mountain backdrop.

Super villa

A clean and spacious villa set in the quiet area of Kokkino Chorio yet close enough to Plaka and Almyrida for small supermarkets and restaurants. The villa itself shares a wonderful pool with 4 other villas but we found that we had the pool to ourselves most days. Nicely furnished with main kitchen essentials. The Owner and on site Manager were amazing at trying to rectify a problem we encountered. There is only one Taverna/restaurant serving the most amazing food, be sure to book a table in advance for their Sunday Greek music night. Check out the local Octopus Bay 10 minutes away and further afield Lake Kournas just after Georgioupolis. Car essential.

Wohlfühlen von der ersten Minute an

Dieses wunderschöne Objekt hat unseren 1. Aufenthalt in Kreta berreichert. Die Ausstattung, die Lage, die Kommunikation, die Sauberkeit, der Comfort, der Pool, der Blick aufs Meer, die Tipps rund um Kokkino Chorio, all dies hat uns einen traumhaft schönen und erholsamen Urlau beschert. Danke an Louisa für dieses schöne Domizil das wir für 13 Tage genießen durften.
