“We just got back from Greece. During our two week trip we visited Athens,Santorine and of course Crete. For my family the highlight of our trip was the week that we stayed in your Villa. We enjoyed every minute of it.What is better than Chilling by the pool and enjoying sunshine. Villa Harmony was big enough for our family of five,everybody had their owin bedroom and bath. View from the yard was fantastic and we took so many beautiful pictures. The Kitchen was fully equipped with all we needed and we cooked dinner and grilled even kebabs... The only negative that I should mention was the WiFi that only worked on lower level and not on main floor ,and having a businessman husband who has to be connected and check his emails all the time ,he had to be down there quite some time everyday. I am sure this is a very easy fixable problem. We already recommended the place to all our friends and relatives.”

“I spent 2 excellent weeks here at the start of the UK summer school holidays. The villa was wonderful, much better than can be seen on the pictures. The views were spectacular. We had every thing we needed and the villa was suitable for all ages and members of the family. Everything you would need was available. The family who own the villa were very friendly and helpful and I would definitely go back again! ”

“Hermes Villa is set in delightful gardens with fabulous views and a very pleasant pool. Inside the rooms are spacious and well furnished, the kitchen has everything you need. We enjoyed barbecues and using the outside wood oven to cook pizzas. Maria, the owner felt like an old friend after only a week. She was very helpful and we particularly enjoyed our night out with the locals at the small nearby taverna which she recommended. We visited the bakery in Tavronitis every morning for delicious fresh bread and cakes and there are several supermarkets within an easy drive. Chania is charming and there are many good beaches to visit. We also enjoyed the Samaria Gorge, Lake Kournas where pedalos can be hired, the Olive Tree museum and several caves. On our last day we had a late flight so visited Rethymnon, which is beautiful, then drove to Water City near Heraklion. Perfect! We would certainly recommend this villa very highly.”

“We had a very nice time in Aretousa house this year. This place was like new, very well maintained and ideally located. The view over Chania Gulf was amazing and Chania is really worth the stay. The owner were very helpful and kind.”

“Our family party of seven adults and two children experience high class accommodation and breathtaking surroundings. The villa's appointments catered to our every need. This set us up to open our hearts to Crete and we were rewarded by the people of Crete with bountiful blessings. ”

“Très bonne location à conseiller à toutes les familles. Très jolie vue sur la vallée et la mer. Ménage fait tous les 3 jours. Seul petit bémol, les ustensiles de cuisine sont un peu juste pour une famille de 5 personnes.”

“We stayed in Adriana Villa or two weeks in late July 2012. It was fantastic. Often the write-ups and pictures prove to be much better than the real-life experience. Not at Adriana Villa. It was beautifully clean, fully equipped and everything worked. We were met at the property by Otto (and first introduced to raki by him - beware, it's dangerous stuff!) - he cleans the pool twice a week and brings gifts, whilst his wife cleans the villa throughout twice a week too. The villa is plenty big enough - we were four adults and 3 kids and the area is lovely and peaceful at night. The bedrooms are all well proportioned and the terraces off the bedrooms are big too. The pool is great and kid friendly. You do need to hire a car though as the walk back to the villa from the beach is hot and steep. But cars are easily available for rent in Georgioupolis at around Euros 25 per day, so don't bother booking in advance. Otto will show you where the car hire companies are.The nearest beach is 3mins drive away, the sea is calm and shallow for a long while. Pleasure fishing from the quay is fun, but take your telescopic rod and reel with you as they are difficult to get and expensive to buy in Georgioupolis. And do try the Blue Boat Bar along the beach - fabulous food, drinks and service all day long. Summertime bar on the seafront has the best cocktails and the Poseiden Restaurant by far the best fresh fish. Final tip - take your smartphones or laptop if you need your internet fix: all the good bars have fast and free wi-fi access, and they'll give their customers the secure passwords to get access. We'll definitely come back. Cheaper villas are available, but Adriana Villa is worth the extra money. It's a bit of a secret gem...... ”

“a great choice for who wants to relax and enjoy a beautiful view of the sea away from the crowds. the owners very kind, had shown us the hospitality that only greece people are able to demonstrate. good choice. recommended.”

“This house was wonderfull, and the owner are so friendly, so sympatic ! Always a specific attention to bring us some fruit, vegetable, wine, oil, etc ... The house is located in a very quite place, no noise, nice swimming pool, very clean and with all the necessary things to cook, live and take advantage of holidays. To recommend without hesitation !!!”

“We very much enjoyed our stay at Liana. The accommodation had been renovated well retaining the old character of the building. The living areas and bedrooms were very spacious and two bathrooms were a bonus. Lots of very nice outdoor areas with a large terrace with sunloungers and dining table on the top and nice paved areas around the pool with another outdoor table and sunloungers. The pool was a really good size and we spent a lot of time in it. The villa was well equipped and the owners are very committed to making sure you have a really good stay. Having a maid service twice a week was a bonus. The location is very good with supermakets (the local ones are best) and restaurants very close. The villa was also not far from beautiful sandy beaches. The local beach is stony but is a great place for a drink or dinner right by the sea. Thank you very much for a great stay.”

“We stayed in the Laina Villa from the 11th to the 22nd of June. The Villa was exactly what we expected. It's really big, comfortable, clean and in a not too crowded village. At the same time in few minutes by car you can reach Platanias, which is a really big village, full of discos, restaurants, shops and markets. The owners were really kind and friendly. For example they always brought us fresh fruits, like melon, watermelon and peaches. The swimming pool was clean. We didn't have any kind of problems! We really suggest you to choose this Villa for your holiday!”
