Beautiful Villa

Villa Harmony was absolutely amazing! The villa was clean, the views were incredible and the hosts were lovely, helpful, accommodating and welcoming! We enjoyed our peaceful stay there! The only improvement I would suggest would be the road/driveway to Villa. Many taxis did not want to drive on the driveway.

We had a great week at Villa Harmony - a lovely villa with a great pool set in a relaxing location.

As first time renters of a villa the engagement was so straightforward with excellent communication at all stages of the booking process. During our stay the host was always on hand and went above and beyond to help us.

A beautiful villa nestled in the Crete countryside

A lovely location just a few minutes from the beautiful city of Rethymno. The hosts were extremely welcoming without ever intruding on our holiday and I would highly recommend this location to anyone. From the seasonal welcome gifts, to the offer of some additional space to use, it truly was a great break that exceeded our expectations.

Perfect week in sunny Crete

We had such a wonderful stay at Villa Harmony, we absolutely loved the incredible pool and outdoor kitchen bbq area - the views were stunning and there were plenty of sun and shade options for adults and children plus lots of sun loungers. The house was very clean and well equipped with everything you could need, the owners had thought of everything. The owners live next door and provided lots of lovely kind extras such as fresh vegetables from their garden, home made jams and mid week cleaning. We were visiting for a wedding so unfortunately didn't get to cook and eat at the villa as much as we'd have liked, but the gestures were so kind. The town was really accessible, only a ten minute drive (definitely not walkable as up in the hills). Only thing we can think of is a few more chopping boards and perhaps some written information from the owners in the visitor guide about local restaurants, takeaways activities etc as we could only find flyers. Otherwise a totally perfect stay!

Clean, comfortable and just as described. Nikos, the owner was just next door and left us tomatoes, grapes and wine on arrival and cleaned the pool everyday. Quite a tricky road to the house, steep in places but easy to find. Lovely views of mountains and the sea, stunning sunsets and sunrises from one of the many balconies. Stay wasn't long enough.

beautiful villa with very nice pool!

On arrival in the evening we were given a tour of the villa, lovely people who welcomed us. Very nice spacious villa, very nice pool and in between cleaning and clean sheets and towels. There are balconies on all corners of the house so you can always sit in the shade. When we (unfortunately) had to go back home, we were again given a warm goodbye. thank you for letting us use your hospitality and beautiful villa!

Amazing holiday

We stayed as a family, the property was well maintained and spotlessly clean. Mr Nichols and his lovely wife were excellent and attentive hosts. The was a Greek welcome pack awaiting us which included, home made jams, fruits, wine and lovely olive oil. During our stay we were also given birthday cake from their granddaughters birthday, fresh figs from their tree and tasty grapes cut from the vines. Overall - An amazing experience. :)

Crete Getaway

Great holiday, Nikos and Maria were there to greet us and show us around the villa. Nice little welcome basket of home produce on the kitchen table. Lovely and spacious inside with possibly the best outside area and pool we’ve ever had. Pool roughly 13m x 5.5 so great for early morning laps. Child friendly in the shallow end. Overall the villa is fantastic although a little of the beaten track. Follow the satnav and trust it, villa Harmony is sign posted when near.

Wonderful house tucked on a mountainside in a grove of olive trees. Beautiful views of the mountains and the sea - perfect for watching the sunset. The hosts were welcoming, left us jam, veggies from their garden, and olive oil from their trees. The pool was cleaned in the mornings, and our sheets and towels were changed every few days. Loved the ensuite bathrooms - no fighting between the kids. It had a well-equipped kitchen, as we liked to cook dinner in the evenings. We felt welcomed and well looked after. Good air conditioning, strong wi-fi, smart TV that you can log into netflix, youtube, etc. Highly recommend. - Family with older teen kids.

The villa is amazing. Absolutely spotless clean and really well equipped. It has almost 180 degree views including a sea view and lots of balconies to sit and admire the view. It’s walkable to town (about 20 minutes downhill) but might need a taxi back as the hill is steep. There are lots of taxis in town. The owners were in the villa next door and very helpful and friendly. The pool area great, with an outside kitchen and wonderful view across the hills. I would 100% recommend this villa for a holiday.

Idyllic Villa

The villa was amazing!Spacious,clean,well maintained.The views from the numerous balconies were breathtaking. The pool area was beautiful with an outdoor barbecue and kitchen area. The owners were really friendly and helpful and were keen to make our stay really enjoyable. The location was good.Near enough to walk into the beautiful town of Rethymno,but far enough away from the hustle and bustle to feel relaxing. Give it us for free for another month!
