We loved our stay at Artemis. The village of Gavalochori is great - good tavernas and lovely people. The villa is very spacious with fabulous views towards the mountains. The two swimming pools were wonderful to swim in. Both Christos (host) and Froso our local contact could not have been more helpful if anything was needed.

We enjoyed our stay at Artemis: fabulous views, quaint village to walk to, lots of friendly cats, reliable air conditioning, good plumbing. Mrs. Froso was very attentive to our needs, The wifi wasn't super strong and so we weren't able to connect to watch the World Cup but could easily walk to the village to watch it at the bar. Overall a great value.

Amazing location, couldn’t have been better.The architecture of the house and the outside space with the pools was stunning.The bathrooms, kitchen and some of the interior fittings could do with an update to reflect the beautiful building.Loved the pools and the view which more than made up for it.The local village offers wonderful restaurants with great ambiance and super tasty food. Gorgeous gift shop with artisan product rather than the more tourist products.A real community feel where everyone was really welcoming.

Wonderful villa

The villa is beautiful, the pools are amazing. A short walk to town with cafe, shop and taverna. 10 minutes in car to main town with beach and lovely restaurants. We had one day at the water park near Chania which was only 40 minutes drive. Our children had a magical time.

Amazing villa

We had a wonderful stay. The villa was amazing with stunning architecture and the pools catered for all. It was such a special villa, it felt exclusive and the space was amazing. The air conditioning was definately needed!! Honestly cannot fault it. Highly recommended for families of all ages. The town is also wonderful with a lovely gift shop and various fantastic restaurants and importantly retains a traditional Greek vibe..

Absolutely fantastic!

The pictures online match perfectly with what we experienced during our stay. The host communicated quickly and everything in the house was very clean. It is a very spacious property with excellent views of the surrounding mountains. The walk to the village is absolutely delightful, great places to eat, drink, and just enjoy the small village. We would return without reservation.

Fantastic week

We’ve had an amazing stay at this Villa. The Villa was very clean, beds were comfy and the swimming pools and view were amazing. It was lovely to walk a short way down the hill and you’re in the gorgeous village, the food was amazing and the people so friendly. We have definitely fallen in love with Crete. Wanted to come back next May half term but it’s already booked so says it all. Thank you very much.

Magical

I think this has to be one of my favourite places I have ever stayed. The rental was beautiful and very spacious - had everything you needed and then some. The pools were perfect and the view - well, I could never get tired of that view. The town is delightful, and the restaurants and the bottom of the hill are fantastic - especially Gavalionas Kafenes!! So much history to see without even having to drive too far too. Thank you Mrs. Froso for being so kind and helpful, I hope you have a wonderful summer with lots of great renters. I really hope we can get back there soon - (One tip, when renting a car, go for a smaller car as the cool little roads in the small villages can be very narrow.)

Amazing villa close to a vibrant village square

We had an excellent stay in this beautiful villa. Check in was easy, the wonderful host had left us ample supplies of essentials as well as some welcome gifts. Everything worked as it should and there was good wi-fi inside and outside. The pools are excellent.. One for swimming, and the infinity pool for chilling. Both perfectly clean and fresh. A 5 minute walk is the village square with several well stocked shops, bars and restaurants. I certainly recommend this villa. 10/10.

Greek Gods and Goddesses

A wonderful villa in a great village. Mrs Fruso is a amazing and helpful housekeeper/host. Having 2 pools was a real treat and the bottom one is very long so good for a few lengths to keep fit. Restaurants a short walk down the hill and a shop. Beach 5 mins away by car in Almyrida. We did scuba diving there. Also lots of beach bars and restaurants. We went on a boat cruise in Kalyves. Water park just over an hour away beyond Chania. Nice and quite neighbourhood. Less than an hour from Chania and the fantastic maritime museum. We did most of our big shops in the Lidls around Chania and topped up at smaller shops in Gavalochori and Almyrida. We also did the Samaria Gorge walk- very hot and tiring but well worth it. Take some flip flops for the beach at the end-it is a gravel beach and very hot in the sun.

Superbe séjour. La villa est idéalement située, dans un village charmant et authentique. L’architecture est très réussie, les extérieurs sont magnifiques et l’intérieur spacieux, conforme aux photos. Accueil pro et chaleureux. Petit bémol pour le linge et la vaisselle, un peu en dessous du standing. Cela n’altère en rien les merveilleux souvenir que nous garderons de ce séjour.
