About the host

Hosted by John Butterworth

Host profile image
I live in Lincolnshire in the UK. I have a grown-up family and young grandchildren, who love to stay at Villa Koumos. This is why I've made sure it's a safe place for families with children. I was immediately attracted to this part of Crete and in 2014 I found Villa Koumos, my own piece of paradise. I enjoy spending time here with my family and friends and I invite you to do the same!.

Why they chose this property

When I read the visitor's book, I came across many guest comments about the fantastic sea and mountain views and evenings spent relaxing on the veranda and enjoying the sunsets. I really love this part of Crete and especially Gavalochori, which retains its Greek character. The cul de sac location, on the edge of the village, means few passing cars, peace and quiet, privacy and access to open countryside. The village shops and tavernas are within walking distance.

What makes this property unique

Safe drinking water from the taps and modern plumbing which means no smelly bin next to the toilets. Spacious bedrooms with plenty of wardrobe space and direct access to the outside. Two modern bathrooms. High ceilings in the living area and white walls create a light and airy feeling. All the kitchen and laundry equipment you would have at home. Even when fully occupied, there are sufficient outside areas for everyone to spread out, have their own space and enjoy the gardens. The pool is extra large and heated making it comfortable for swimming throughout the season.
