☀️ NOT OVERLOOKED ☀️Gated Private Pool For Child Safety ☀️ FREE WiFi

This property is managed by 'Saint Basil Olive Grove - Rentavillacrete'

GREEK TOURIST LIC£NCE NUMBER: 1042K91002923301

Perfect if you want privacy! This house is not overlooked by any other villa. It sleeps up to 8 persons in 4 double/twin bedrooms and has a private swimming pool. For people in wheelchairs or with limited mobility, the downstairs double bedroom is ideal, being next to the downstairs shower room and W/C with commode available. British plumbing and WC - no small pipes!

IMPORTANT NOTE TO PARENTS WITH SMALL CHILDREN! This villa has a downstairs kitchen which looks out directly onto the gated pool. This means you can see your children playing in the pool while you are preparing lunch! Many other villas in the area have not been designed with holidaymakers like you in mind because they have an upstairs (Greek Style) kitchen which means you may have to balance a meal and a drink on a tray while walking down a flight of stairs with a toddler following behind you or under your feet! We designed this feature BEFORE the houses were built - you are not an afterthought!

Our guests often comment that this villa is in the perfect location: within walking distance from two villages, close enough to enjoy their facilities but not too close to be disturbed by barking dogs, crowing cockerels and noisy human nightlife that happens in any and every Cretan village or town.

The villa is located in a peaceful private olive grove of 4.5 acres (17,000 square metres). It is one of only 5 villas in the olive grove, all of which are owned by us. The olive grove is secure, being fenced and hedged by colourful oleander, and surrounded by olive trees. It is the perfect base to explore the picturesque Apokoronas area on foot or by car, with its tiny white hamlets nestled on green mountainsides. Apokoronas is a designated area of natural beauty, protected in a similar way to a National Park. At all times there are breath-taking views of the White Mountains which are snowcapped until late May. Literally on your doorstep there are numerous foot-trails through this most spectacular area of Crete, a genuine walker’s paradise.

Close to the villa are two villages. Almyrida, by the beach, is only a 3 minute drive away or you can walk it in half an hour. Gavalochori, further inland, is only a 1 minute drive away and you can walk there in less than 15 minutes.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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. Schöne Dörfer und Strände in 10-20 Minuten erreichbar.wir können die Unterkunft sehr empfehlen.

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.

Villa astoria crete

We had an excellent time at the villa Astoria. It was very clean and well equipped an added bonus would have been a dishwasher. The very large outside area was more than excellent very peaceful and tranquil the only thing I would change is some more comfortable patio chairs as we spent a lot of our time sitting on the patio taking in the very lovely atmosphere barbequing and e enjoying the swimming pool. The local village was very friendly with lots of great eating. We hope to visit this villa again.
