Lovely, bright, spacious villa, beautiful views. Almyrida is a lovely town with plenty of great restaurants to choose from.We hired a speed boat from Antonis Boat Rentals which was a holiday highlight. Kera beach is only a 10 minute walk from the villa, not much sand, but a lovely dip in the sea

Nice, but needs a little upgrade

The house and the surrounding is quiet nice. In the fridge were the most needed things for us-great! Unfortunately some things in the house has become old. The bathrooms need a refreshment and the doors to the balcony and terrace couldn’t be locked.

Hi Hilkka. The villa has now changed ownership and name, and the new owners have put in beautiful new bathrooms over the winter. There are many other improvements and the doors do all lock (though this could have been fixed in minutes during your stay if you had let the house manager know). With the amazing views and location, perhaps you will return to see the new bathrooms! Best wishes, Frankie at Villas Crete Holidays.

Great communication and very helpful

We had a good break at the villa. I would recommend car hire from June to September. Is possible to walk into town which we did early and late in the day but quite a hill in heat of the day. Cat and 3 kittens living in garden which gave us lots of pleasure. Problem with key safe code which was sorted with a phone call but we arrived after 11pm so quite stressful at the time. Lots of restaurants in almyrida. We particularly enjoyed visiting souda war cemetery, georgipolis, hired a boat. Beaches and sea beautiful.

Crete 2024.

Firstly, no one mentioned the road thats in front of the villa, noisy all day. None of the interior doors closed properly, we had to put cushions to stop them banging when the wind blew through. Everything else was fine, except, we couldn't use the BBQ, which was such a shame, but we understand entirely.

Hi John, Thank you for understanding that it was, at the time of your stay, illegal to barbeque anywhere in Greece, due to the long hot, dry summer, and the fire risk. At many of the villas that I handle, including Villa Amira, the owners have now provided electric barbeques in addition to the charcoal barbeques, in case the government ban barbeques due to the fire risk. The new owners of Villa Amira have also put in gorgeous new bathrooms over the winter of 2024/25, and have upgraded the villa in many ways. I am sorry that the interior doors were a problem for you when the doors and windows were open and there was a breeze, we have now provided door stops, so thank you for letting us know. At the bottom of the property description there is the line:" *** N.B. Villa Amira is set on a terraced, walled plot, above the road between the villages of Kalives and Almyrida." This line has been in the description for many years, and in all those years only 1 other set of guests (other than yourself) has said that the road bothered them at all. It is, of course, definitely a personal opinion to which everyone is entitled. I hope that you will return to gorgeous Crete again soon, and that perhaps we will hear from you again. Best wishes, Frankie at Villas Crete Holidays.

Better than promo pictures!

We always expect properties to not live up to the pictures. We were delighted to find the opposite here. Every aspect of the villa was more spacious and attractive than expected. No car hire needed if you’re happy with a ten minute walk to the long, sandy beach and tavernas/ shops. Supermarkets provide all essentials. The local beach, 5 mins walk is part rocky, part sandy and five minutes walk. A family of 6 ranging from 2 to 63, we had a wonderful holiday and were looking to rebook before leaving, but our chosen dates unavailable.

Die Lage der Villa ist einfach traumhaft. Abends kann man das Rauschen des Meeres hören und vom Pool aus hat man einen wunderschönen Blick darauf. Wir lieben es, selbst zu kochen, aber leider ist die Arbeitsfläche in der Küche recht begrenzt. Positiv hervorzuheben ist jedoch, dass es zwei Kühlschränke gibt – einen in der Küche und einen in der „Outdoor-Kitchen“.Wir haben 12 wunderbare Tage in der Villa verbracht und es war großartig, dass zwischendurch geputzt wurde. Es wäre noch schöner, wenn die „Outdoor-Kitchen“ mit einem Gasgrill und/oder Kochfeld ausgestattet wäre. So könnte man mit Blick auf das Meer kochen und die begrenzte Arbeitsfläche in der Küche wäre kein großes Problem mehr.Insgesamt hatten wir eine fantastische Zeit in der Villa.

Top-Lage

Schönes, etwas in die Jahre gekommenes Haus, aber Jimmy bemüht sich um schnelle Anhilfe bei Problemen. Super sind die Mückengitter fast überall. Das Haus heizt sich sehr auf. Bei Temperaturen um die 40 Grad sollte man das Schlafen mit Klimaanlage mögen. 5 Minuten zu Fuß zum Meer und ein toller Pool ! Insgesamt ein schöner Urlaub!

Wunderschön

Wir haben kurz vor Ankunft eine sehr genaue Wegbeschreibung über Mail bekommen, mit der wir den Weg gut fanden. Wir standen aber nicht auf dem Grundstück weil der Weg schlecht zu befahren ist. Vor der Mauer die das Grundstück umsäumt ist aber eine Parkmöglichkeit und man geht dann durch den Garten ins Haus, das ging super. Das Haus war gut ausgestattet mit einen traumhaften Ausblick🥰 und ein tollen Pool. Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt. Und kommen bestimmt noch mal dort hin. Vielen Dank für die gute Betreuung (auch in der Covid-19 Krise). Hat alles ganz unkompliziert geklappt.

Willkommener Herbsturlaub mit Tücken

Vor allem die Lage des Objekts ist beeindruckend. Allerdings könnte die Zuwegung über einen Schotterweg und Beschreibung bzw. Beschilderung besser sein. Mit ein wenig mehr Wartung könnte man viele Dinge verbessern. In der Küche waren viele Türen schlecht eingestellt, der Tisch und alle Stühle wackelten. Leider wurde während des Aufenthalts nichts verbesser, trotz Hinweis. Die Betten bzw. Matratzen wären ebenfalls mit geringem Aufwand zu verbessern. Ganz schlecht war leider, dass an einer Außentür das Schloss defekt war. Das Haus war also während des gesamten Aufenthalt nicht abschließbar. Die offene Tür konnte in Abwesenheit und in der Nacht nur durch Herunterlassen der Jalousien gesichert werden.

Fantastisk feriebolig

Havde den skønneste ferie i dette hus. Huset har alt, hvad der er behov for, til at kunne have en fantastisk udsigt. Skøn udsigt. Lækker pool. Dejlige faciliteter både inde og ude. Ligger i gå afstand fra hyggelig by. Eneste ulempe - ferien slutter for hurtigt, man når på ingen måde, at blive træt af, at være i dette hus.

Great location, fantastic house manager, close to brilliant benches, good for families, heated pool

We had a great stay in late Oct. we had a prob with the hire car and the house manager was so reassuring and helpful. Took us to a local mechanic and all was sorted. He spoke very good English and couldn’t help enough. The heated pool made so much difference and the steps down meant the kids loved it. The location is brilliant with a long stretch of sandy beach at Kalyves and a sweet beach at almerida. We used the bowling alley (much nicer than it sounds) on a rainy day at the local hotel (had it to ourselves). Worth a drive to Chania and did the boat trip with captain nick and his glass bottom boat. The house is clean and simple. Has shutter blinds on all windows - great to keep the kids sleeping. Also has glass doors with fly screens so we had No mosquitoes in the house! Big bonus for us. Only downside was the bed quilts which were tired and not a nice feel but saying that they go over a clean Cotton sheet so not a big deal. Overall a good stay.

Stunning spot!

Lovely villa in an excellent location. The villa is in a really peaceful spot with stunning views of the sea, but is only 10-15 walk away from Almyrida. Although, you would need a car if you wanted to go further afield. The outside space of the villa is excellent with beautiful views, loads of space and the pool can be heated on request. Inside, the villa is well equipped but perhaps needs updating slightly. For example, our bed was quite creaky and felt quite old. We also had the lights trip on us a couple of times but I understand this is a common problem in Crete generally and was easily fixed once we found the fuse box! Overall, an excellent stay and we would definitely would recommend to anyone looking in the area!
