The host was so great and patient with us. We got lost and they went to meet us at a local store to bring us the rest of the way, despite it being their Good Friday. The home was beautiful with amazing views. The rooms were spacious, all with baloconies. It was so nice that each couple had their own bathroom. The host was there when we needed supplies. Gorgeous home and nice location!

Great villa in a relaxing, rural setting

Beautiful villa in a fantastic setting, that was an amazing place to relax. A superb space that we thoroughly enjoyed as a family of 9, with views that can only be described as idyllic! The host was always quick to respond to any queries and a pleasure to meet in person.

Great vacation

The house was beautiful in a very quiet place, close to rethymno and different beaches. The owners are very nice and always ready to help, everything was clean and very well equipped. If you're looking for a vacation in Crete, this is the place to be. Ilan

Fantastic villa

The villa was fantastic and had everything you would want. The pool was lovely and there were also places you could sit in the shade especially a very comfortable hammock chair hanging from a tree. Although the local village is only a 15 minute walk away i would say you definitely need a car. We wish we could of stayed longer

A wonderful 2 weeks

We’ve just returned from a fantastic stay at Villa Danna. Stratianna and family were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The villa has large rooms and each bedroom is en-suite. The upstairs balcony was perfect for both breakfast and watching the sunset in the evenings. The outside area was extensive with a lovely pool and separate bbq area. We also enjoyed walking into Prines in the evening for dinner with its 3 tavernas, pharmacy and mini market. Would definitely return!

Nice view over sunset

We were three families sharing the house and had a great time at Villa Danna. Excellent pool in the garden, with subeds and possibly for shade if preferred. Wonderful house, nice bbq-area. The host family was very nice and friendly. They did their best to sort out, what seemed to be a local, wifi problem in the area. But to be honest we were better off without, and had less time on our phones and more time for each other. They were very service minded and served us with info on local restaurants and markets as well as more sun beds, towels etc when needed. We highly recommend this place.

We had the most wonderful two weeks staying at Villa Danna. The accommodation was perfect and immaculate. The family were all on hand to assist with anything we needed and insisted on re-cleaning the house and emptying and re-filling the pool after a freak Saharan dust storm. We had three animal loving kids with us, who were thrilled that the family dog was nearby (a short walk across through the olive trees) for strokes and cuddles, and Rosie the cat was often asleep in the shade somewhere. We loved the pool, the eating areas, the upstairs balcony with incredible views of the sunset and the table tennis table got plenty of use too. It was a good walk uphill to the nearest taverna or shop, which was fine for the younger members of the party but tricky for anyone with mobility issues. It was a short drive into Rethymno to lots of bars and restaurants. We would definitely stay there again, after a wonderful two weeks of relaxation and sunshine.

Simply Amazing!!

Everything you want in a property this has. Excellent hosts. Always available to answer questions about the property and the region. Location. The property is centrally located on the island. You can go anywhere in a few hours. Located near Rethymo and walking distance to Prines. Prines is away from tourists you can actually just enjoy life. The entire experience was super rewarding. Thank you Last but not least the house. Everyone has space to unwind. Upstairs, downstairs, outside on the decks and the pool area. Simply spectacular. Thanks again

A home away from home. What a wonderful stay

I have just come back from spending a wonderful stay at Villa Danna. Our party (myself, my two young children 10 & 7) and my best friends family (2 adults and 3 children, 1 and half, 7 & 11) stayed at the villa for 12 days. I am not someone that normally tends to leave reviews but after such a wonderful holiday I felt compelled to so that others could hopefully benefit from such a lovely "home away from home". The villa is absolutely lovely and in my humble opinion the pictures do not do it justice. The house was spotlessly clean on arrival and Bill (the owner) was awaiting us (and we didn't arrive until 1am!). Where the villa is situated offers a privacy, amazing views (the sunset from the huge upper balcony is beautiful!) and space for all. Great places to come together as a group and eat / socialise including the lovely outside kitchen / BBQ. The pool was fabulous, a great size (looks amazing when you switch on the pool lights at night!). A short walk to Prines and a short drive to Rethymno. Lastly but not least my thanks to the family (Marina, Bill, Stratianna, Helena, Mike) I cannot thank you all enough for your warmth, kindness & advice of where to go / what to see). Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your villa and for making our holiday so special. I absolutely recommend this villa and I hope others experience both the villa and the wonderful family who own it. Hope to see you all again soon. Justin

Merveilleux séjour à la villa Danna

Nous avons passé un séjour de rêve à la villa Danna. Nous savons été chaleureusement accueillis par nos hôtes malgré notre arrivée tardive et ils ont été aux petits soins tout le long du séjour. La villa est magnifique, très spacieuse, l'environnement très calme et apaisant. Tout était parfait, je recommande ce lieu et ses hôtes.

Très agréable séjour

Séjour à la Villa Danna optimal pour notre groupe de 9 personnes. Accueil et contacts très sympathiques avec les propriétaires. Maison parfaite, intimité de chacun, tout le nécessaire est à disposition. Vue sur la mer, et les Lefka Ori, au milieu des oliviers. Proche des commerces et restaurants (Prines et Gerani). Une semaine de plus aurait été idéale.

Runder Geburtstag mit Familie und Freunden

Es war unvergesslich!!! Die Villa entsprach absolut der Beschreibung. Alle Wünsche wurden erfüllt. In einer unerwarteten landschaftlich traumhaften Natur wurde der Sinn für diesen Platz vollends erfüllt. Der herrliche Duft verschiedener Blumen und Blüten gaben das restliche. Man spürte die Liebe des Eigentümers an seinem Besitz! Wir Großstadtpflanzen genossen die natürliche Ruhe. Außer einem Grillennest störte NICHTS!!!

Just perfect!

The villa is located away fromt he coast in a lovely rual spot - olive groves and lovely localvilages with great tavernas and shops and was a perfect spot to get away fromt he hustle an dbustle but only a 10-15 min drive into rethymno or nearby beaches andalso is well placed to drive to the south coast too or further west. the villa is perfect and well equipped with a lovely pool and loverly spots to sit and chill. But what made the holiday even better was the welcoming hospitality of Marina and her family who ere always on hand when needed and so friendly and helpful with advice when needed. Really the most perfect spot to enjoy beautiful Crete!

Beautiful property and fantastic hosts

We had a fantastic stay at villa Danni. Stratianna was there to meet us on arrival, even at midnight! Her communication was great and very helpful. The property was clean, airy and the views were stunning. We never tired of the sunsets! The pool was a lovely size with plenty of outdoor furniture for all. The WiFi was reliable and we were very happy there. Vasilis and my dad went off for breakfast together and set the world to right and Marina treated him to her home baked delights. Such kind people. My only recommendation would be to have a second set of keys for guests. As the property is so big it is likely to accommodate more than one family and it would offer easier independence in larger groups. I would not hesitate to recommend this beautiful villa and we hope to return one day. Thank you Davi family!

Wonderful family run business

Fabulous property, location and people. The villa is tastefully designed and furnished. It seems like a lot of love went into it. The olive groves are magnificent some trees being over five hundred years old. The owners of the property are so helpful and friendly. An ideal spot for all the family. We all loved Crete, but having this villa just made the holiday an unforgettable experience.

The villa is wonderful, even better in real life than the pictures suggests. It’s spacious, the bedrooms and baths are nice and the outdoor area is just lovely. The hosts are also very helpful and easy to communicate with. For our party of ten (two families with children agee between 6 and 14) this was the perfect place to stay during our vacation.

Memorable experience

We stayed here for five days in June 2022 and had a wonderful time. Villa Dana is spacious and the location is simply amazing with views of the coastline . The sunset view from the balcony is unforgettable. Villa Dana it self is a charming oasis surrounded by olive trees, and vibrant flowering plants. The owner Stratiana is very helpful and was prompt in her responses to queries. Her parents Vasilie and Mariana were always so willing and helpful with guidance on local areas to visit . Their hospitality made our experience a memorable one. I highly recommend Villa Dana as and hope to return in the near future
