A paradise in the sun

Review Submitted: October 8, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
We were looking for a chilled out holiday at our pace with all the luxuries but no stress. Villa Hermione was just the ticket. It was relaxing with the villa close to essential ammenities and good restaurants within walking distance but had the idyllic draw of being secluded. In fact, we had the pool to ourselves during our stay! The Villa was extremely clean and had all the ammenities of a 5 star villa. It was very comfortable and felt like home immediately that we unpacked and the views from the balconies over to the sea were so picturesque and relaxing.
I hate it to sound that we didnt make the most of the holiday, we did go to the beach at Almerida and visited the Ancient ruins at Aptera and the quaint harbour at Chania which were all a small drive away. However, the most important thing for us was just the ability to do as much or as little as you wanted and we loved our relaxing holiday at Villa Hermione. We will definately be booking it again in the future.

Beautiful house in a real Kretian village

Review Submitted: August 16, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Villa hermione is a lovely house situated a little bit up an mountain which gives it a nice breece though it may be really hot.There is a nice little wind all the time, so the heat was enjoyable in stead of being unbearable.

The house was very practically and kept in ligth and nice colours. it was also very well kept and very clean. It had everything you just need for a nice holiday.And the pool was nice and clean all the time.

The way the house was made and were it was situated was just the best. One really get to experience the real Crete staying there. We would love to come back another time.

Relaxing Break in Plaka

MelissaH Essex
Review Submitted: July 29, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We had a fantastic 2 weeks away. The villa was lovely, very spacious, comfortable and had everything you need. It was very clean and the garden is lovely - very well looked after. The pool was brilliant - swam every day! The area is beautiful, fantastic views and it is so peaceful and the people are so friendly. The beach is not far at all and the sea is beautiful - so clear and warm. Weather also lovely - blue sky every day!

Would definitley think about returning, this was a lovely break away.

Many Thanks,
Melissa and Frank
