Truly an amazing property, the villa was immaculate and cleaned every day, the host was super friendly and communication was first class. The view from the villa is fantastic and the pool is wonderful. All the bedrooms were fully equipped and the kitchen was fully equipped for every need. The gym was beautifully situated so you could exercise while looking out across the bay. This was a five star property with a five star view.

Lovely stay in Crete

The house is as beautiful as depicted in the pictures. The outdoor space is even more than the pictures can portray. The view is spectacularStavros met us at the Villa and arranged for a chef for that evening. It was nice to settle in by the pool and have a lovely dinner. Stavros was always available and provided us with great suggestions of what to do on the island.

We had an incredible stay at this villa in Crete! The house was spotless, beautifully maintained, and perfect for our family of 10. The views were absolutely breathtaking and made every morning and evening special.The host was exceptional—always responsive, helpful, and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. They even did grocery shopping for us before our arrival. We also hired the private chef for one evening, and the meal was absolutely delicious and one of the highlights of our trip.The daily housekeeping service was wonderful, and the cleaning lady was one of the kindest people we’ve ever met. The outdoor space was stunning, with plenty of room for everyone to relax, dine, and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.We couldn’t have asked for a better place for a large family vacation. Highly recommend this property, and we would happily stay here again!

Fabelagtigt ferieparadis

Helt vanvittigt smukt og velfungerende ferieparadis! Fantastisk beliggenhed, tæt på Heraklion og Knossos, betagende udsigt fra villaen, fantastisk pool, privat strand etc. Trænger du til afslapning i de skønneste omgivelser med venner eller familie, så tag hertil. Værten Stavros, og det øvrige personale er yderst hjælpsomme og servicemindede, og sørger for, at dit ophold bliver uforglemmeligt. De varmeste anbefalinger herfra!

You won't be disappointed

This property is amazing. The views are amazing and the house is very comfortable. We enjoyed the pool and the private beach even in November. The kitchen has all that you need to make a meal. We didn't get a chance to use the BBQ area, but it looked just as in the photos just as the rest of the house. I would recommend to anyone.
