Gorgeous hidden gem!

If you want a beautiful location away from the crowds and are happy to drive this is a really stunning villa set in a beautiful garden adjacent to olive groves and orchard with orange and lemons. It is well appointed with a well equipped kitchen, comfortable bedroom with kingsize bed and a large sofa bed. It is spacious and cool in the hot weather. A must for walkers, anyone who loves nature, birds and butterflies. We would highly recommend.

Idyllic, Secluded, Peaceful, Country Perfection!

If you're looking for a quiet, rustic, country escape in western Crete, you have found it! This property is rural and a bit secluded, which gives it its sense of spledid isolation and privacy. You do have to drive a narrow but well maintaned mountain road for about 1.5km off the main road to reach the villa, but you will be rewarded with a magnificent view along the way. A view which you can also enjoy from the vine-sheltered terrace which is the main feature of the property. The villa is built into the mountainside and surrounded by gardens, olive groves and fruit trees, providing an intimate and private setting. The house itself is charming and well appointed; It has everything you will need and was spotlessly clean. There is a full kitchen, bathroom, wifi, tv and laundry available. The bedroom was comfortable and also looks out onto the terrace. The location is, as mentioned, a bit remote (but thats what we were looking for!). There are miles of mountain paths and roads to explore right outside the property gate, but for other excursions, you will need a car. You will likely want to go into Paleochora (about 30 minutes driving) for most errands, however, there is a village store/cafe (about 10 minutes driving) with basic necessities. The hosts were fantastic. Excellent communication and they met us at the property to ensure we had everything we needed. The even provided a few extras: fresh oranges, peaches, preserves and a bit of local raki. Overall: Fantastic!!
