Exceeded Expectations

What a beautiful, beautiful property! The view is stunning. The pool, a dream. They responded immediately to any question. The location was great. Just know the small roads around the house are a bit of a challenge. That’s not the hosts’ fault though, and of course Crete is known for it. We really hope to be back someday and can highly, highly recommend this place to anyone.

Fantastic Property

The Property delivered as the pictures and descriptions advertised. The main reason for choosing the property - the privacy, full access to a whole house and the pool were all as advertised with the outdoor range of good Wi-Fi, welcome gifts going above and beyond. The holiday overall was a great success delivering relaxation and the pool with great views and peace and quiet. Kitchen was well equipped and all the work around directions to the property and using the amenities and equipment were excellent A few small niggles: 1. 3x (odd number??) too soft European shaped pillows on the main bed did not offer fantastic sleep for either party 2. 2 x days of overcast and rain exposed the shortcomings of a hot water system reliant on solar heating - cold showers / baths whether one liked them or not 3. Internet stopped working around 10.00 the night before we left 4. Lack of additional bed linen

Dear guest, thank you very much for your positive feedback and we are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Villa Kukuwaia. We would like to briefly address the points of criticism you mentioned. For our guests there is a house book in German and English with some helpful instructions. As well as step-by-step instructions on how to turn on electrically warm water. The house book also states that our guests can contact us at any time if they have any problems or questions (e.g. WiFi not working). Our telephone number and email address are listed in the house book. It's a shame you didn't take advantage of it because we would have been happy to help you.

Tolles Ambiente

Kreta im Mai ist noch wundervoll grün und davon waren wir in dieser Unterkunft umgeben. Schönes Haus, großzügiger Außenbereich mit tollen Pflanzen und Kräutern, einem wundervollen großen Pool und grandiosem Blick auf die Bucht von Souda. Danke für das Willkommenspaket und die Blumen, auch an Sanja und den Poolservice. Auch bei schlechtem Wetter konnten wir - dank des überdachten Bereichs - jederzeit draußen sitzen. Ein kleines Stück Paradies und nicht weit weg vom Strand ... Wir hoffen, dass wir irgendwann wieder in die Eulenvilla kommen können. Viele Grüße Nikola & Bernd

Luxuriös und komfortabel

Ein wunderbares Ferienhaus mit viel Platz draußen am toll gepflegtem Pool mit Aussicht auf Meer und Berge. Jede Menge Privatsphäre. Auch innen bleiben keine Wünsche offen an Komfort und Sauberkeit. Liebevolle Aufmerksamkeiten zur Begrüßung. Wir waren zu zweit, das war sehr bequem, aber auch für zwei Kinder wäre noch gut Platz gewesen.

Mitten im Paradies

Das ist Kreta pur: eine wunderschöne Villa in Hanglage mitten in Olivenhainen mit einem atemberaubenden Blick aufs Meer und den Bergen. Eine hochwertig und komfortabel ausgestattete Unterkunft mit einer modernen und gleichzeitig traditionellen und gemütlichen Einrichtung. Es hat einfach alles funktioniert und nichts gefehlt. Und als absolutes Highlight ein riesiger Pool, der der Beschreibung Infinity mehr als entspricht. Das war wirklich ein Traum. Wir hatten bei diesen Details das Gefühl, von Freunden in ihr Haus eingeladen worden zu sein. Danke Christine, wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder.
