About the host
Hosted by Angelos
We are two sisters from Crete who lived and studied in England before returning home to continue our family’s tradition of hospitality. Through Villas Davis, we share our love for the island by helping guests discover authentic Cretan life, local gastronomy, and agricultural heritage. Villa Deleni, one of our two sister villas, offers privacy, comfort, and a true Cretan experience, alongside Villa Danna for larger groups and special gatherings.
Why they chose this property
We decided to build our villa in this location because it is in front of the sea and offers fantastic sea views. Also we were very keen to work with the garden and we liked the big olive grove that surrounds the villa. Many of the olive trees are 400 years old! We like to collect the olives every November and to produce our own extra virgin olive oil.
What makes this property unique
What is really unique is the big variety of Cretan herbs that are abundant in the garden and you could collect them and use them in your cooking and for tea or as beauty and perfume products. We also have carob and olive trees in a big olive grove and you could be invoved in the collection of the olives. In the garden there are also pieces of art made of natural materials like stone and wood. We offer activities to the guests like cooking, outdoor cinema, olive collection, planting olive trees and more!
