Perfecto si quieres privacidad! Esta casa no es pasada por alto por ninguna otra villa. Duerme hasta 8 personas en 4 habitaciones dobles / dobles y tiene una piscina privada. Para las personas en sillas de ruedas o con movilidad reducida, la planta baja habitación doble es ideal, está al lado del cuarto de baño planta baja y W / C con inodoro disponible. plomería británica y WC - no hay pequeños tubos!

NOTA IMPORTANTE padres con niños pequeños! Esta villa cuenta con una cocina en la planta baja que da directamente a la piscina cerrada. Esto significa que puede ver a sus hijos jugando en la piscina mientras se está preparando el almuerzo! Muchas otras villas de la zona no han sido diseñados con los turistas como usted en mente, ya que tienen una arriba (estilo griego) cocina que significa que tendrá que equilibrar una comida y una bebida en una bandeja mientras se camina por un tramo de escaleras con una niño siguiendo detrás o debajo de los pies! Hemos diseñado esta función antes de las casas fueron construidas - usted no es una idea tardía!

Nuestros clientes a menudo comentan que esta villa se encuentra en la ubicación perfecta: a poca distancia de dos pueblos, lo suficientemente cerca para disfrutar de sus instalaciones, pero no demasiado cerca de ser molestado por los perros ladrando, cacareo gallos y vida nocturna humana ruidoso que sucede en todas y cada una de Creta pueblo o ciudad.

La villa está situada en una tranquila olivar privada de 4. 5 acres (17.000 metros cuadrados). Es uno de sólo 5 casas de vacaciones en el olivar, todos los cuales son propiedad de nosotros. El olivar está seguro, siendo cercado y cubierto por adelfas colorido, y rodeado de olivos. Es el punto de partida ideal para explorar la pintoresca zona de Apokoronas a pie o en coche, con sus pequeñas aldeas blancas enclavado en las laderas verdes. Apokoronas es un área designada de belleza natural, protegida de manera similar a un Parque Nacional. En todo momento hay unas vistas impresionantes de las montañas blancas que son cubiertas de nieve hasta finales de mayo. La puerta del hotel hay numerosos senderos-pie a través de esta zona más espectacular de Creta, un auténtico paraíso para los caminantes.

Cerca de la villa son dos pueblos. Almyrida, junto a la playa, está a sólo 3 minutos en coche o se puede caminar por la mitad una hora. Gavalochori, más hacia el interior, es sólo una unidad de 1 minuto de distancia y se puede llegar a pie en menos de 15 minutos.

Villa Asteria-highly recommended.

Accurate description of the villa: Efficient communication and helpful advice before and after booking. The villa was excellent; well maintained in a good location within walking distance of Gavalochori while the setting in a quiet olive grove with views of the white mountains was impressive. Ideal villa for families with children, particularly as the swimming pool is gated.

a great base to explore Crete from

This is a delightful villa situated in the hills above the resort of Almyrida. It is comfortable with all amenities we could need. The pool is superb, clean and clear and a perfect temperature. The host could not have been more helpful and was responsive to all contacts we made. We were a couple but this would easily have been fine for 4 or 6 persons. It is well located for exploring Crete.

Thank you Mike for your kind words. We like to have variable pricing depending on the group size, so making our villas cost-effective for couples as well as big family groups of up to 8 in 4 double/twin bedrooms. Larger families could book two villas together, accommodating up to 16 people in very comfortable style. We hope you visit us again soon.

Fantastic !!! Villa Asteria is wonderful

Everything about the stay was brilliant - from the initial booking to the departure there were no hiccups or issues. We have stayed in a number of villas in the area over the last 10 years and Villa Asteria rates as one of if not the best !!! The villa is spacious and spotless and has all the amenities desired. Location is great, a quiet, reasonably secluded area but just minutes away from the local village (Gavlochori) and the nearest seaside resort (Almyrida). I would not hesitate recommending this villa to all or any of the other 3 villas in the St. Basil Olive Groves - John is an exceptional host. Thank you so much !! Book it - you will not be disappointed !!

Thanks for the excellent review Caroline. We chose the location very carefully - we wanted to be in a peaceful place but within an easy walk of the local villages. We put a lot of thought into the design of our villas, based on how we and our own families like to go on holiday and the facilities we look for. The fully gated pools are a good example, these were designed to help with child safety - something that you will not easily find in other villas across the island. And the distinguishing feature is the authentic colours and textures we have used in the unique decor of the houses. All of the wooden 'driftwood' effect fixtures and fittings are hand-built by Marcus, one of the owners, with colours anf fabric styled by his wife Kirsty. It is an ongoing process - we make little improvements and upgrades every year. Your were excellent guests and we would love to see you retirn soon. Bring more friends - you know the villas are big enough! You can follow us on Facebook to see what we get up to during the olive harvest in November, and many other things.

Highly recommend this Villa!

As soon as I booked, John warmly emailed me with great information, and he quickly answered all my questions. The villa was spotless, with aircon and a beautiful warm, clean pool. The villa is set in a lovely olive grove with beautiful mountain views. It's very quiet and peaceful. The local village of Gavalachory is so nice with a bakers, a few Tavernas, a shop, a lovely art and crafts shop and a museum. The beach and sea at Almyrida is gorgeous with nice Tavernas. We hired a car and received a warm welcome throughout the island. Thank you to our hosts John and Tina, we will be back!

Lovely villa in a peaceful olive grove

The villa is clean and spacious and as described in the listing. The kitchen area is small but well laid out with a good supply of crockery and utensils. The pool area is a good size and the covered patio is a lovely place to sit and eat lunch or have a nightcap. The owners clean the pool regularly and were always responsive when I had a query. A car is handy but if you don’t mind walking or taking buses you can manage without one. The village of Gavalochory , which has a couple of good restaurants and a small supermarket, is a 15 minute walk away, you’ll need a torch at night as there are no streetlights. Almyrida, on the coast, has many restaurants, shops and bars and is a 30 minute walk away, a little longer to get back as it’s uphill. A taxi from Almyrida to the villa is 9 €. There is a bus service to Chania, which has a Venetian port and is a nice place to visit.

Beautiful Villa Asteria

A beautiful, well equipped villa set in peaceful surroundings, ideal for a relaxing holiday for couples or families. We were looking for privacy, peace and quiet and that is what we got - almost. We have long since given up hotels, with their noisy activities around the swimming pool, insufficient sunbeds and set meal times. We much prefer the flexibility and seclusion that villas offer, although this is not always guaranteed. Villa Asteria, from the advertisement, seemed to offer exactly what we were looking for and we were not too disappointed. There was a family with teenagers staying in one of the adjacent properties, however, so the quiet was often shattered by the screams of delight from the children as they played in their swimming pool and with less olive trees between the properties than we had been expecting, our pools were quite exposed to each other. The other major disappointment was the distance to the village of Gavalachorie, which we thought would be a 10 minute stroll but turned out to be nearer 20-25 mins for us (both well into our 60s), particularly the return leg which was uphill all the way. We never attempted the walk into Almyrida as this was a very steep climb back and again would have taken us twice as long as was suggested. A car is therefore essential, although the road to the village and into Almyrida is very narrow and with sharp bends. These issues apart, we were more than happy with the villa and, never fond of air-conditioning, were grateful for the ceiling fans throughout the property. We did find the bed somewhat hard but many people prefer this so not a major problem. We were unfortunate with the weather on a few days and when it did rain, everywhere outside was covered in sand carried over from the Sahara, something which we were told happens a couple of times a year. This left the swimming pool surrounds and the outside dining area very slippery and filthy until the pool area was cleaned each Saturday. We felt that the pool could do with cleaning twice a week as it soon became full of leaves from the surrounding olive trees. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our 2 weeks at Villa Asteria and would happily recommend it.
Respuesta de VrboOwner el 24 de mar de 2020
It is important to us that the villas are peaceful and quiet and we have designed the villas so that the pools are not visible to each other. About 4 years ago we planted 32 olive trees between the houses which have improved screening.

Sehr schönes Haus

Wir waren hier für eine Woche mit unseren Teenager Söhnen und haben es sehr genossen.John und Tina sind sehr nette und hilfsbereite Gastgeber,die jederzeit ansprechbar sind.Das Haus liegt abseits vom Trubel in einem Olivenhain,es hat viel Platz und ist gut ausgestattet. Das einzige Manko ist, dass die Terrasse um den Pool kaum Schatten bietet,es gibt zwei Sonnemschirme,aber bei praller Sonne war uns das dennoch zu wenig.

Many thanks for your review. Villa Asteria has an excellent location, and is not overlooked and its position in the olive grove means it has the most privacy of our 4 villas. When we redecorated in early 2019 we added some quirky, hand-made touches which we think add considerably to the relaxing ambience of the house. It is indeed a great place to unwind! For 2020 we will be adding a large poolside pergola with extra shade and this will make the place even more attractive.

Very enjoyable stay

Really enjoyed staying at this property. Very clean on arrival and the pool was lovely. It's 2 kms from the small town and beach and less to a village with a good taverna, so easy access to shops and restaurants but a quiet place to stay. When needed the air conditioning made the house comfortable when very warm outside. The host was extremely helpful with information prior to the visit and very quick to respond to any queries.

Superb Villa & Pool

We thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay at Villa Asteria. The villa is very spacious, well equipped and private. The pool and surrounding area is a really good size and there was always somewhere to be out of the sun.The location is beautiful. We did not hire a car as there was just the two of us. The walk down to Almyrida took about 25 minutes but the walk back was quite tough especially in the heat. However the taxi fare was only €9. The overall cleanliness of the villa was disappointing. Lots of dust and cobwebs.Some of the furnishings could do with being replaced. This is what stopped us from giving 5 stars. However this would not prevent us from returning to the villa,

Thanks for your review. It was quite hot when you arrived so we are not surpised you too the sensible option of the taxi! Regarding the cleanliness, you will recall that Marcus (one of the owners) met you on the day of your arrival and you discussed your concerns and these were addressed within 24 hours. There was indeed an oversight on the cleaning on that occasion but our manager came to make good very shortly after you reported it, and I believe all was well for the remainder of your stay. As you will be aware there had been some building work going on in the olive grove opposite your villa and this plus the extra traffic kicking up dust from the unsurfaced access road at the side has contributed to an environment that is dustier than normal (the other villas, being further away, don't seen to have this issue). As to the furnishings, I believe you are referring to some sun loungers and sun umbrellas around the pool. We sent some away for recovering at the time of your visit and I can confirm that these are now ready to be installed once we collect from the pool shop in Kalyves. We are glad you have an overall enjoyable experience and you'd be welcome to return and hopefully enjoy the fresh new furnishings!

Fantastic villa, everything there!!.

This is our second visit to Villa Asteria which has all the amenities we require for that perfect holiday. The pool is so spacious and kept clean by the property manager Mark, we found the villa very well equipped and with satellite tv you want for nothing. The owners give excellent information on the villa and surrounding area, the views are out of this world, mountains one way, olive trees the other, the sound of mountain goat bells in the distance. We have enjoyed this villa so much I have just booked for another two weeks in August of this year after our three weeks in May!. Prices are good as well hence our repeat bookings

October sunshine

This was our fourth stay at Villa Asteria. We usually stay in May/June but this year took a later break. The weather was lovely. Booking with John has always been quick, efficient and friendly. Mark and his team look after the villa well and answer any queries quickly. There have been improvements to the villa over the years and anything we have mentioned has been put right by the following year. We feel totally relaxed the moment we arrive - lazing round the pool, lunches by the sea in Almyrida and eating in the evenings in Gavalachori. This year we took a trip to the Botanical Gardens of Crete,up in the hills south of Chania which were interesting but possibly not on very hot days! The description of the villa is accurate but words cannot express the feeling of calm and peacefulness that one gets from the surrounding hills and the views of the mountains - and the wonderful sound of the cicadas in the evenings. The information book needs to be updated and I am sure this will be done. This is the reason for 4 stars. We love the area and would not think of taking any other villa.

Quiet villa in lovely location

We enjoyed our stay at the villa. It was private and very restful - rarely heard distant voices from the other villas and pool felt very private even allowing for occasional passing traffic. Also spacious, which was important to us as a couple with three teenagers in the party. This allowed us to stay downstairs and get up earlier and leave them undisturbed! Good facilities in the kitchen and comfortable seating area - nice to have proper sofas rather than sofa beds which are often impossible to relax on. Good location for visiting other parts of this area of Crete - lots of interesting places within 30 minutes drive. The restaurants in Gavalochori were great. People were all very welcoming. Our favourite was the Grill House, with Astimari a close second. We did find the walk longer than described, but that reflects our poor level of fitness as desk-bound people 48 weeks a year - the teenagers nipped up and down happily. Fantastic views of the mountains, especially in the mornings. For a 15 year old boy to mention that as one of the highlights, the view must be spectacular! Would recommend this villa to families who are looking for a comfortable home, in a quiet location with good access to beaches and places of interest when you do want to go out.

The Villa is excellent,just as we expected

The Villa is well equipped for your stay everything you require for a self catering stay, we stayed for three weeks and all our needs were met.The property manager was extremely helpful and efficient, Mark was always helpful with tips on where to visit on the Island. All in all we had a great holiday.

Our local manager Mark and his wife June are a real asset. As well as looking after the villa and pool they have a very deep knowledge of Crete and advise guests on great places to visit around the island and wonderful local restaurants
