Spacious, well-fitted out villa

FMNGJ&T London
Review Submitted: October 14, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We had two happy weeks at this villa in August with 4 children aged from 5 to 11, who were in the pool dawn til dusk. The standard of fit out and furnishings is very high and the villa was well-cleaned and cared-for. Air-con is only in 2 of the 3 bedrooms, but at least the one without is on the ground floor & can be kept cooler with the shutters closed. Kitchen had all the necessary of equipment to self-cater and plenty of space to eat inside or outside. A car is essential. It's not that far into Vamos, but a long way to walk in the heat. This is a lovely part of Crete with good access both to mountains and beaches and away from the main tourist centres.

Great villa with fabulous views

D25 Gloucestershire
Review Submitted: September 7, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We spent a wonderful 2 weeks at the villa with our four boys aged between 10 and 15. It's a truly beautiful spot, with breathtaking views and peace and quiet for the adults, and plenty of space and a great pool for the kids. There's often a lovely breeze too as you're basically nestled into the hillside. Beautiful beaches nearby and pretty quiet even in August!
The local villages have everything you need, supermarket, baker etc but you need a decent car as it's a little drive and the track to the villa is quite entertaining at times!
I would highly recommend it and would certainly go back. The villa has everything you need for a great holiday and is well maintained. The only thing I would change is that there's no air con in the third bedroom, which would be useful in August as it's so hot.

Our first visit to Crete

Alty Cheshire
Review Submitted: September 5, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
This was our first villa holiday and our first visit to Crete and we were not disappointed. We had a fabulous holiday, and this was down to everything that is described in the villa details being accurate. It is a large and spacious villa, with the panoramic views being better than imagined. It was so peaceful with only the sheep/goat bells to be heard across the valley and the faint noise of village life below. The villa was spotless on arrival and well looked after throughout our fortnight (including pool cleaning). Would definitely recommend this property, we have two small children aged 5 & 2 and the steps down into the pool made it easy access for them. As the villa is just off the beaten track and you cannot walk to the local shops, a car is essential. Although the local beaches are nice and clean we would highly recommend visiting other beaches, especially Stavros and Falasarna. It is great to see that tourism hasn't spoilt this part of Crete and there are no fast food american restaurants, just your traditional tavernas. We would definitely consider returning to this lovely villa. Greek life is very laid back indeed!
