Lovely villa with plenty of space for a group (we were three couples): good-sized bedrooms, two separate bathrooms and two living rooms. Beautiful views, particularly from the upper level. Nicely landscaped outdoor area with comfortable seating and loungers, and the shortcut via the garden gate makes the walk to the town and beach only 15m. It is quite close to a few other villas but we still found it pretty private. Really enjoyed our time in Crete and this was a good base from which to explore the surrounding areas, though also close enough to Almyrida to not need to use the car every day. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Blissful villa - wonderful host

We were a party of 4 and this wonderful villa was absolutely perfect for us. The communication with our host Carina was great from the point of booking and throughout. The villa was clean and even better than the accurate pictures show. It’s walking distance to the bars, restaurants and the beach (and watersports) in Almyrida which we did on several occasions (but only walked back up the hill at night when it was cooler)! It also served as a fantastic base to see the other local villages and places of interest such as Aptera and the cities of Chania and Rethymnon. We really enjoyed the beautiful outdoor space which provided knockout sunset views over the bay. The house is also very well equipped which provided that perfect home-from-home experience. It was also lovely to meet Carina who was a delight to speak to and charming to learn about her. I would not hesitate in recommending this lovely villa to holiday goers looking for a Cretan escape. Thanks Carina.
