Kalyves villas

You couldn’t ask for anything more. The villa was stunning. We didn’t won’t for anything. It had everything you need and more. The Host Sella was absolutely amazing with all the places to go to and places to eat she was so generous . The welcome basket was so wonderful touch. Id highly recommend a beautiful place to stay.

We enjoyed our stay not only at the house but also in the area. Many nice places and excellent food. We will come back next year

Villa Palena is a lovely, spacious, light, bright property. It provided us wth everything we could have asked for, from comfortable en suite bedrooms to a superbly well-equipped kitchen, to a marvellous indoor games room and spa, to a beautiful pool and surrounding sunbathing area... and even a mini-football pitch! So, there was plenty on offer for every age group. Last but not least, we were made very, very welcome by the housekeeper and her staff, who could not have done more to make us feel at home and to keep the place spick and span!

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!

Positioned right behind the sea, five mins walk from main beach and on very edge of small village. The villa was gorgeous. 3 double bedrooms all of which a similar high standard to each other. Everything was available and convenient. Wonderful rooftop terrace and lower terrace with warm very clean pool. Only stayed a week but a cleaner and a pool cleaner came in half way through. The owner Stellios was available by text throughout our stay though didn’t really need anything. A welcoming colleague of his was at the accommodation and showed us around and helped with any queries. We have already booked for longer next year!! Thank you!!!

I've just returned from Crete after staying in the villa for a week. It had everything we needed and a few extras too, such as bottled water, fruit, homemade raki, herbs, spices, coffee, tea, honey etc. The outdoor area was great for lounging around, but the beach was even better, with a few sun loungers exclusive to the owner's properties. The views were spectacular. Checking in was a simple process and Alex gave us a tour of the property on arrival. The owner was very welcoming and kind to us during our stay. We often saw him around the area. We stayed here in the quieter season (October onwards) so the temperature was perfect (25 Celcius) and the area was much more peaceful. I highly recommend this villa for anyone looking for a peaceful base with spectacular views and facilities. Thank you for making our stay comfortable and memorable.

Three good rooms leading into pool and a choice of terraces depending on time of day. Great views and easy but steep walk into village for food and drinks. Five min drive to sea and loads to do.

Lovely property a few yards from the beach and short walk to several tavernas and restaurants We were looking for peace and quiet and thats what we got
