The apartment was home from home which we really appreciated. Everything you need was there. The village and beach was beautiful and plenty of restaurants to choose from. And a big thank you to the family for making us so welcome.
This place is beautiful, such a good find! We will absolutely be staying again. The terrace gets the sun right up until about 5pm (June) and its lovely and private. The accommodation itself is SPOTLESSLY clean, one of the best I've ever stayed in. Communication with the host was fantastic including during a hiccup we had with our keys late at night. Such a great stay, cannot recommend enough!!
Staying at Fissi Villas for 11 nights made for a very special family trip. The hosts Yanna and Yannis are wonderfully warm and thoughtful hosts who made us feel completely welcomed in Crete. Yanna helped us with all our arrangements regarding our late night arrival, and was there to meet us after our long journey, and had generously provided us with food ready for the morning, as well as a liberal supply of their delicious organic olive oil. The house is immaculately clean and extremely well provided with equipment and thoughtful touches. But it is the wonderful terrace with its sea view, where we spent our favourite time at the house, reading, eating, and the children playing in the play area. The nearby beaches are wonderful for swimming and our oldest son did lots of walking in the hills nearby. Yanna gave us great recommendations for visiting monasteries and villages where we could get meals in tavernas. When there was a difficulty with a blown fuse Yanna and Yannis sprang into action to get it fixed and could not have been more helpful as hosts. The gardens of the 2 villas are full of trees and plants, so the setting is really beautiful. There is some light traffic noise from the road, but the house is set back from the road, protected by trees and raised up the hillside, so the view is of the sea, and the road sounds are mostly drowned out by the sounds of cicadas! Good air conditioning in bedrooms. Thank you Yanna and Yannis for an idyllic time in friendly Crete!
Amazing property - views are out of this world and so many different areas to sit and relax. Very convenient for Plaka and Spinalonga. Highly recommend.
We wished we’d stayed longer! From the very beginning it all went smoothly. Christine was in contact with references to taxis etc from Heraklion airport, therefore our taxi driver knew the area and found our accommodation late at night. Easy to work air con and mattress very comfortable for us. There was a welcome food pack which got us through a couple of days, thank you to the lovely lady for this who also works on beach beds, she was very helpful. The location was superb and we would love to come again. We wanted relaxation so spent time on the terrace sunbathing and looking out to views of Spinalonga. We ate breakfast out there too. Kitchen equipped if with all you need, shower good. We loved the whole experience, the little gate to the beach was used regularly and thank you for free sun beds on the beach too. We swam everyday even filmed a huge black and white Manta Ray in the shallows. We walked 2 minutes into the village daily to supermarket and restaurants in the evenings. Plenty of lovely places to eat. Took a taxi To Elounda 8 euros, a busier place so we prefer Plaka. All locals friendly & food lovely. Eagles flying high above the mountains behind were great to watch as we take our binoculars everywhere too! Had a lovely boat ride across from tiny harbour in Plaka to Spinalonga for 10 euros, cafe there , had about 4 hours and walked up to the highest point, boats coming and going all day. Lovely views from there too. Thank you for building these amazing studios right on the beach, which also I forgot to mention has waiter service from sun beds to a cafe too! I came to see the island and all exceeded my expectations, 😀
