Villa Alba is situated 94km from Heraklion, 30km from Rethymnon and about 30km from Chania. Most flights go into Herkalion but some also go into Chania. Whilst this coastline of Crete provides numerous beaches, harbours and bays in addition to the 6km stretch of safe sandy beach close to the villa, the north west of Crete provides ample activities for non beach days. The three main cities combine history, architecture, shopping and activities- e.g. in Heraklion you can visit the Palace of Knosos and the water fun park, in Rethymon and Chania the Venetian harbours, museums and other historic buildings abound as do the wide range of shops. The Samaria & Impros Gorges reward walkers with spectacular scenery and a range of tours now provide challenging and easier option walks. Close to the villa is Lake Kournas and the town of Georgioupolis with many tavernas (some on the seafront), shops and medical facilities. Cash machines are available at the supermarkets in Kavros & in Georgioupolis

Summer holiday

gbz Newcastle
Review Submitted: January 29, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2008
We enjoyed a fantastic holiday at Villa Alba in August 2008. The villa itself was exactly as described, it was clean and extremely well equipped, the dishwasher was a real bonus and the gas bbq was excellent for cooking the local fish.

The villa was conveniently situated being approximately 5 minutes drive to Kavos and the beach.

The owners were very helpful.
Owner's Response: Again we thank our guests for taking the time to submit such a favourable review of Villa Alba. The only slight amendment we have since their stay in summer 2008 is that the path from the villas to the beach is now open making it possible to stroll to those 6 kilometres of sand and sea and leave the car behind!

Not easy to find - even more difficult to leave

felipp Schweinfurt, Bayern
Review Submitted: January 18, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2008
Top equiped apartment between the sea and the mountains of crete. Ideal starting-point for seightsseeing and good location for relaxing in the evenings and nights.

The property ist clean, the whole housing estate is well-maintained. And the owners customer-service is excellent. So we allready recommended the property to friends.
Owner's Response: We are grateful to our guests for taking the time to complete this review for Villa Alba, but more than that we are delighted that their holiday has met and exceeded expectations. Our welcome pack is comprehensive and carefully prepared so that our guests have the best possible time on holiday and can easily plan sightseeing, eating out etc. We also include step by step directions from both Heraklion and Chania airports because although the villa is close to all amenities it is tucked away in a quiet spot and so could be hard to find. However like our guests we find the hardest part is leaving Villa Alba at the end of each of our visits!

July 07 - As owners of Villa Alba we are delighted with the location, quality of the build and furnishings - we hope you enjoy Villa Alba as much as we did on our first visit.

August 07- Home now from a fantastic two weeks in Crete. Your Villa is beautiful, and very well equipped.The welcome pack and instruction on how to find the villa was spot on. We tried out many of the restaurants you suggested. Many thanks again for allowing us to rent your Villa and we hope to return to Crete, and may be back to Villa Alba- Suzanne & Doug
