Sfakia villas

We enjoyed our stay not only at the house but also in the area. Many nice places and excellent food. We will come back next year

This villa completely exceeded our expectations. It was even more beautiful than the photos (which we didn’t think was possible!). Perfect for larger groups of friends or family — every bedroom has its own en-suite, giving everyone privacy and space, while the shared living areas inside and out are spacious, stylish, and great for spending time together.The pool area is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views — we spent most of our time out there and honestly didn’t want to leave. The surrounding area is also very peaceful, which made it feel like a true escape.The team was incredibly helpful and responsive on WhatsApp, and the check-in/check-out process was easy. We were a bit concerned about not having a car, but everything we needed was within a short 5 minute walk, including supermarkets, cafes, and restaurants in Plaka which is a very cute village. The walk down to the beach at Almyrida took about 15 minutes and was definitely doable, and it was easy to get a taxi back. The team provided us with local taxi contacts, which worked perfectly for going to Chania and the airport.All in all, it was the perfect place for a relaxing, unforgettable getaway. We can't wait to come back!

We loved the villa.The most stunning views across the white mountains. Surrounded by a local olive plantation.The village is beautiful with several tavernas within walking distance. Our host was brilliant, bringing gifts of cake and olive oil. He reccomended places to visit and restaurants. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Viola. It has a lovely orchard at the back full of pomegranate and olive trees. There is a view of the sea from the sea from the pool. It’s easy to access Frangkocastello beaches and also the ones around Chora Sfakion. The villa was well stocked with everything you need including toiletries etc. So we didn’t need to do much shopping. Nikos was super helpful in advising on swimming places and tavernas. We also had a lovely drive up into the mountains near Anopoli. The location of the villa is perfect if you want uncrowded beaches in summer and crystal clear seas. Bliss.

A little gem. We would have liked to have stayed for much longer. Peaceful and quite and away from the beach hustle. Car essential, which made it all the better.

We had a lovely week staying at Villa Maria. The Villa is well equipped and clean and perfect for our family of 4. The Villa is well situated to visit various beaches on the west of the island. We hired a car which I would suggest is needed as the property is location is in a small village with local amenities were a 10 min drive away. The property owner, Manolis is a very kind and generous host, our welcome pack was fantastic, he gave us an extensive list of restaurants, beaches etc to visit. He also provided a home cooked meal and ice cream during the week which was a welcome surprise! He couldn’t have been more helpful! I would recommend the Villa and hope to return!

Fantastic property in remote location. You will need a car and you will need to be comfortable driving down some narrow cliffside roads. If you are comfortable with this I would highly recommend. The villa has unrivalled views and fantastic facilities.

Ideally situated in the hills in the centre of Crete, the village a short walk away with enough facilities and excellent tavernas to keep you happy for a good while. The Villa is very well provisioned and really lovely walks from the front door. You do need a car to reach Chania, Rethymnon and Iraklion and the beaches to the south, but they are easily accessible and the views en route are breathtaking. I could not recommend the villa or location highly enough.
