About the host

Hosted by Martin

Host profile image
We have been visiting Greece for years. My wife and I met in Rhodes in 1989 working as holiday reps. We honeymooned on Crete in 1992 and have visited every year with our children since 2003. So it wasn’t really a surprise to anyone that we decided to buy a property here.

Why they chose this property

Villa Lemonia ticked so many boxes for us. It was close to the Airport (less than 30 minutes in a taxi) it's also on a bus route so you don't necessarily need to hire a car. We were definitely attracted to the fact it had a good sized pool, and the outside space including a barbecue area. We also loved that it had a mature garden and it's own fruit trees. It's very private and quiet. It's less than 10 minutes to walk to the supermarket and restaurants. It's also a good base to explore eastern Crete.

The villa is split into two apartments, with their own entrances. We stay in the top apartment and guests stay in the ground floor apartment.

We leave the pool and garden to our guests so they have sole use during their stay.

What makes this property unique

The garden is a lovely place to spend time, very relaxing and the pool is big enough to have a swim. The view makes us smile every day.
