Immaculate Villa, Excellent Hosts

The villa is wonderful, inside and out. Easy to find with good roads. Beautifully clean and well presented. We were very well looked after by our hosts with a fantastic welcome and regular check ins throughout our 2 week stay. The pools were cleaned daily and the villa every 4 days or so. There are so many lovely local tavernas and supermarkets and even a local bakery and butcher too. The hosts had lots of great recommendations of activities and places to eat, and any problems or questions we had were all dealt with within 24 hours which was fantastic. We wouldn’t hesitate to return and would highly recommend this villa to families with children of any age.

About the host

Hosted by Manos Dafermos

Host profile image
Hello there,
I am Manos, owner and manager of CreteVillas4U. I have been in the hospitality sector long before CreteVillas4U, however. I was actually born, grew up, and spent most of my life in a hotel owned by my family. So, I guess it came as no surprise when I expressed my wish to study in Rhodes’ Tourism School and, later on, when I decided to start my own business in the sector.
One thing I learned growing up in a family-run hotel is that hospitality is more than hotel management, logistics and operations. It is a culture, passing down from one generation to the next. You can study to be a hotel manager but you cannot study to be hospitable.
I apply this philosophy in my business as well. The rule is simple: the guests of the villas I manage are my guests. As an active traveller, I expect nothing less myself.
The fourth generation of Dafermos hoteliers has already been born. I know now that my two beautiful children will probably follow my steps, like I did before them. There is a small difference though: they are smarter, more educated, better (big smile).

CreteVillas4u Head Offices are located in Rethymnon , Crete, Lasithiou 1 Str. under the approval of the Greek Tourism Organization with License number: 1041E70000184301

All the best,
Manos Dafermos
