Has potential but needs a clean up

The house is in a nice spot, with great views and fairly close to Balos and Falassarna. It looks like it is currently being renovated so be prepared to some chipped paint and some 'unfinished' rooms. The property is still quite cool. Main problem for us was that the house was sooo dirty. There are a bunch of cats living there and all the pillows outside are so full of cat hair you really don't want to sit on them. A storage box would help. Lots of dust and dirt everywhere, and the last two nights we were all eaten up by the bed bugs. Not fun. Although communication with the house manager was easy, a couple of repairs that were required were not attended to.

Excellent Villa

We have just returned from a really enjoyable holiday in Karefilana. The Villa is spacious and well equipped and is a rare find when seeking 3 double bedrooms. We all enjoyed our stay there, making the most of the spacious outdoor dining and relaxation area. All the bedrooms were of a good size and with 3 bathrooms we were able to have one per couple. All communication with the owners was good and the villa is managed locally by a very helpful local lady. My only slightly negative is that in my opinion the picture of the Pool in the advert makes it look much larger than it is and my first reaction upon seeing it was disappointment. In reality the Pool is a reasonable size and we enjoyed using it. I have no hesitation in recommending this property which is located in a good position in an unspoilt part of the Island.

Why they chose this property

We looked in Spain and France for a property but thought it all looked to busy. The Crete House was chosen for it's looks. The property has it's original beautiful stone work down stairs and upstairs are 4 very slick rooms. We just love the location as it close to one of Crete's most beautiful beeches - Flassarna. Plus has good quality night life in Kasteli.

What makes this property unique

The main benefits of the property: Great location with it's own swimming pool and close to fantastic beaches. Villa is home friendly and does not have that cold 'rental' feeling. Beautiful beds - 3 of the rooms have amazing 2m x 2m.
