HEAVEN ON EARTH

Never been on a more beautiful place than in villa Almirikia I was complete happy here with my family You don't have to discover the area, just stay at the house and enjoy the beach and the sea Meet Vasilis and his son Kostis, very kind people Meet Zola, we called him Zorba the Greek, he watches the beach and the sea and is proud when you want to take a picture of him. It is a amazing place and I did not want to leave it

Unvergesslicher Urlaub

Die Lage des Haus ist traumhaft. Es liegt ruhig. Man schläft mit dem Geräusch der Wellen ein. Der direkte Strandzugang ist ein besonderes Highlight. Unser Gastgeber war immer erreichbar und hatte tolle Tipps für uns. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder.

Perfect break in a great location

Right from the start we felt most welcome, greeted by the villa owner with fruit and drinks on arrival, he was a great help right through our stay. The villa has lots of outside space to relax in and was by a quiet secluded beach, which was just perfect. Rethymnon is a short bus ride away and close to local shops and taverna's.

Perfect for a relaxing break

Lovely villa set in very large grounds leading down to the sea. Plenty of various seating areas outside, either around the pool or down by the sea, ideal on a very hot day. Rocky shore just in front but a sandy beach to the left which is almost private, never saw more than 4 people on the beach. Accomodation was good although we didn't spend much time inside, quitely located down a surfaced track but within easy reach of various, very good, taverna's. If you want a relaxing break with a pool and beach on the doorstep this is perfect. Nothing really, power went off twice, once for 6 hours but this is beyond control of the owner and not that usual for Greece/Crete, we had similar problems in the past.

Für Ruhesuchende

Es war ein perfekter Urlaub für die ganze Familie und Freunde. Herr Vasilis Spiridakis hat uns sehr herzlich empfangen und erkundigte sich immer ob alles zu unserer Zufriedenheit ist. Er kann auch gute Tipps geben. Der Strand vor der Haustüre war fein ruhig und man kann sehr herrlich schwimmen. Der Garten bietet sehr viel Platz zum Spielen und Entspannen. Es findet jeder seinen idealen Platz. Tavernen und Einkaufsmöglichkeit ganz in der Nähe.

Sehr sauber, sehr netter Vermieter und schöne Lage am Meer

Die Übergabe des Schlüssels erfolgte direkt am Haus. Nach der Schlüsselübergabe hat der Besitzer des Hauses alles erklärt und es gab einen selbst gemachten Begrüßungsschnaps. Es war auch frisches Obst bereitgestellt. Das Haus selbst war sehr sauber. Pool wurde alle zwei Tage gereinigt und das Haus nach einer Woche. Handtücher und Bettwäsche wurden auch getauscht. Der Vermieter war immer erreichbar und und hat sich sehr bemüht alle Wünsche zu erfüllen. Wir haben unseren Urlaub sehr genossen. Ein großes Dankeschön noch an den wirklich sehr netten Vermieter.
