Thank you Ross! We will always be waiting to host you again!
The villa is beautiful, the posted pictures do not do it justice. So much room and everything in the kitchen you could possibly need.
The pool is fantastic. There is always sun or shade, depending on what you need.
The area is very quiet and the views are stunning. You do need a car but there is a supermarket in walking distance. Maria was brilliant and responded very quickly to all our questions.
I would definitely come back. Many thanks.

Dear Susan,
You were wonderful guests!
Thank you very much! You are always warmly welcome back!
I wish you all the best!
Wat een fantastisch huis!Alles was aanwezig en van alle gemakken voorzien. De eigenaresse had koffie, water, sap en koekjes klaargezet. Was goed te benaderen en communicatie was prettig en de reactie volhde snel bij vragen. Het zwembad is heel erg groot (en diep) en super schoon. Tijdens het verblijf werd deze nog een keer schoon gemaakt. Het hele huis was prima schoon en beddengoed, handdoeken waren ruimschoots aanwezig.Wij hebben er een geweldige tijd gehad

Thanks for being such great guests! It was a pleasure to host you. You are always welcome to come back anytime!
Pas du tout conforme à la géolocalisation. Maison loin de toute commodité la voiture est INDISPENSABLE ce qui n'est pas dit dans l'annonce. Personne à notre arrivé. Les prix des taxis EXORBITANT.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry that you did not stay to enjoy the facilities of our house with the superb pool and the unlimited view. It's unfair to rate 1 star because you regret your booking. You mast know that you have been denied accommodation by a family that visits the villa every year on such days. Also the location of the villa is shown exactly on the maps of the VRBO platform. Still of course if you asked we would have informed you that you will need to have a car to get around.
Finally, the cost of taxis in Heraklion is much lower than in other countries. We will always be waiting to host you.
Das Haus und auch die Aussicht waren Umwerfend. Die Kinder konnten sich frei bewegen und hatten viel Spaß in dem riesigen Pool. Die Lage des Hauses ist grundsätzlich gut aber man ist auf ein Auto angewiesen und auch an den Fahrweg nach oben hat man sich schnell gewöhnt.
Kurz gesagt....ein toller Urlaub den wir gerne wiederholen

Dear Vanessa,
it was a pleasure hosting you and your family. You are always warmly welcome back! I wish you all the best!
Kind regards!

The house is very large, plenty of room for everyone, the pool is huge too and nice and deep. Had a truly lovely time. There is a very friendly bar five minutes walk away, views from the pool over the airport, so always something going on! 10 minutes drive to decent beaches or to Heraklion, really couldn't ask for much more. A car is essential, as is a smartphone and someone competent with Googlemaps/directions!
Thank you so much, after such an awful 18 months this was just what was needed and exceeded expectations in every way.

Séjour agréable
Très bon accueil. Maison splendide.
Il faut pouvoir communiquer en anglais au téléphone avec Maria qui est très sympathique et disponible.
La voiture est indispensable pour se déplacer car la mer est éloignée et les chiens en liberté peuvent être agressifs.
Soucis de lumière pour dormir car les volets sont endommagés.
Pour le reste tout est perfait.

Dear Karine,
Thank you for your observation, we are going to replace them.
best regards
The villa was much better than our expectations and the photos really didn't do justice. Everything was excellent. The pool and the Jacuzzi were great and we spent a lot of time in them. Kids loved playing in the pool during the hot July sun. The property is a nice location with a view of the airport. We enjoyed watching planes land and takeoff during the day and night. The rooms were clean and the elevator was very helpful. The kitchen was stocked with all the basic items. Overall this villa is very nice for a family to enjoy a relaxing holiday in Crete. I would gladly recommend to my friends and family. In addition, Maria and her parents were great hosts as well.

We named the villa "THE THREE GRACES" for our three daughters, Anastasia, Emmanouela and Georgia, who love the house so much and unfortunately live away of it because of our jobs. We lived in the villa for 10 years and we love it.

The big verandas let you enjoy the whole house and a place that you can sit and relax comfortably . Moreover wherever you sit inside and outside the house you see the other beautiful island Dia which was the refuge for the minoan ships. Another benefit is the location of the villa which is at the centre of crete.
