“Thank you, Gregory, Maria and Manos! Eight of us had a superb holiday at Prinus Country Villa. You are all wonderful hosts! The villa is situated in a stunning location with superb views of the White Mountains and the Apokoronas region. The village bakery (with delicious breads) and shop provided the majority of what we needed, whilst the owner at the local restaurant was very welcoming and where we all had tasty meals. The villa itself is beautifully clean; is extremely comfortable; is very well-equipped and has many interesting items throughout all made from natural materials. The barbecue and outdoor lounge/dining areas were perfect for relaxing whilst the pool was refreshing and such a pleasant place to read/unwind. We picked courgettes, tomatoes, aubergines and peppers from the villa garden and were very grateful for the delicious foods that were left for us by Maria, Manos and Gregory. Thank you! Maria was available on WhattsApp for any queries we had, which was comforting to know, although rarely needed. Maria also provided us with lots of useful recommendations for our time in Crete based on her wealth of local knowledge. Two of our party (keen cyclists) regularly cycled up and around the White Mountains and the local lanes/roads were interesting to walk. The amphitheatre, Minoan Bridge; church built into the caves and the Alidakis castle are all within walking distance and are certainly worth visiting. We also enjoyed our boat trip from Hora Sfakion to the Sweetwaters beach. This is our fourth visit to Crete: an island that we love and where we always feel so safe; especially here at Prinus Villa on the outskirts of the village of Emprosneros. ”
“This is a fantastic villa. The view is spectacular and there is a lot of space. We were several generations together - 9 people, and the house was perfect for us. The owner is extremely nice and helpful, we could always reach him, and he would always help. The house was a bit under equipped, and two toilets were not functioning optimally, but overall everything was great. The location is a bit tricky. Even though the house is close to Stalos city, it is very hard to walk - especially home, because it is on the top of the hill. We did not rent a car - you should!! We walked down and took a taxi back. It is a bit difficult to order taxi to the house, because there is no specific address, only coordinates. But the owner always helped us book a taxi and explained the location to them. ”
“Wir haben die letzten 2 Urlaubswochen zu Viert in der wundervollen Villa Resi sehr genossen. <br>Neben dem fantastischen Ausblick aufs Meer (vor allem bei Sonnenuntergang), dem sehr sauberen Haus & Pool ist vor allem die herzliche Begrüßung (mit selbstgebackenem Kuchen, Wein & Olivenöl) und Betreuung durch Andonis & Anita vor Ort zu erwähnen. Vielen lieben Dank dafür! <br>Tagesausflüge nach Balos Beach, Elafonisi und Loutro können wir sehr empfehlen genauso wie die Taverna Parasia in Vamos und das Pandaisia in Kalyves (direkt am Meer mit tollem Ausblick!) zum Essen gehen. <br>Wir freuen uns bereits jetzt darauf hoffentlich bald wiederzukommen!”

“We have just returned from a wonderful family holiday to Stella Villa in Maleme. <br> This is our second visit in two years to the villa and once again it was perfect. <br> The accommodation is ideal for a family with lots of space and all the facilities needed to ensure a comfortable stay. The twice weekly cleaning service was a luxury and ensured the villa was spotless through your stay. <br> The large and exceptionally well maintained pool and the beautiful gardens are absolutely fabulous and we spent many days just relaxing on the sun loungers and enjoying the gorgeous Crete sunshine. <br> The villa is just a short walk from Maleme beach and a number of fabulous Greek restaurants serving the most delicious local cuisine, we highly recommend Waves restaurant, with its amazing food and excellent service set against the idyllic backdrop of the Aegean ocean.<br> Thank you Villa Stella, we look forward to returning again soon. ”
“Villa Resi is beautiful, the view from the living room is fantastic, great air condition and a fully equiped kitchen. The pool is spotlessly clean. There is a shaded parking spot which is realy helpfull. The location is quiet and relaxing.<br><br> You'll need a car, but the Kalives beach is only 10 minutes away, and Vamos is 6 minutes away. <br><br>Plenty restaurant both in Kalyves and Vamos.<br><br> We really recommend this Villa, our 14 days stay was a dream!”
“Pour la deuxième fois nous avons passé de merveilleuses vacances à la Villa del Sole.<br> Un endroit extraordinaire, calme, propre et très bien équipé à 20 minutes de Chania.<br> Sans parler des couchers de soleil, des grillons, la vue magnifique sur la baie...<br> Le propriétaire est très sympa et répond avec plaisir à tous vos questions. <br> On se sent vite chez soi...”
“We spent our dream vaccation in Joanna Villa. An amazing house in calm and beatiful surroundings. The pool and garden completed the luxury feeling. The location is perfect, close to beach and the town. We will be back! ”
“We are big family of 10 people and we are in love with Crete! We come here every summer during last 8 years and we were always booking our villas through Chania Rentals because this company works as a Swiss watch :). <br><br>This year we first time booked Aquila and we are excited about our stay! Artemis and the family made everything JUST PERFECT for unforgettable stay and rest.<br><br> Every detail is thought through and done in a way to provide you ever best vacation! I will list only few of them. <br>Mattresses are so well balanced and comfortable that you feel like you sleep on a soft clouds. :) <br>Every room has both air conditioning and ventilator, so you can always switch during the night and sleep with the fresh air coming through the big windows. <br>House has wooden stairs and special shallow area in a swimming pool that are very safe and comfortable for small kids. <br>Swimming pool has a rough, grainy bottom and surrounding that also is very safe for kids and for senior people. <br>Whole area is organized in a way that it is enough space for any activities for the big family: huge living room table for gathering, sunbeds where you can drop yourself with the book, bbq place where you can also have a coffee only for two and (our favorite!) outside terrace with the incredible sea view where we were sitting with the glass of wine and looking on ferries leaving from Souda every evening when kids are already in bed. <br>All materials in the house are natural, beautiful and very well combined. <br>The location is fantastic - no neighbors, you hear only sheep's bells that sound like a "bells river" when they move around. <br>The view from villa is really breath taking. You can spend hours looking on tranquil picture of mountains and the sea. <br><br>And of course the special note should be about Artemis's hospitality! When my parents and sister's family arrived on villa they were very tired after 2 flights and whole night on the trip. Artemis and Niki prepared for them special cheese&vegetable pie in the oven and the whole basket with the fruits, snacks and wine. This is how your dream vacation should start, right? :) <br><br>THANK YOU SO MUCH and we are looking forward to come next year! Elena on behalf of big family. ”
“We were welcomed into this wonderful house. We usually travel to Crete, but I have rarely seen a welcome from this one. The house offers exceptional services and perfect cleanliness. We especially enjoyed the villa, in the evening, whether indoors or outdoors, it was simply magical. You won't go wrong choosing to stay at Villa Dionysos. Thank you for everything.”
“We booked this lovely Villa last year to celebrate my 70th birthday. Little did we know that COVID would still be around and make things so difficult to get there, but we made it and had such a wonderful time it was worth all the stress with cancelled flights, quarantine on return and not to mention the cost of all the tests <br><br>The Villa is beautiful and you have no need to go out if you don’t want to. It is fully equipped with everything you need and Katrina the owner kept bringing us delicious local meals she cooked herself. Just see your self sitting on the outside dining area, with a bottle of wine , candles lit and watching amazing view over the sea and all the lights sparkling in the distance.<br><br> Who could want more Kalives Village was very quiet as there were not many tourists and a lot of apartments and the hotel were closed because of cancelled flights Most of the tavernas were open but with reduced menus and they are not allowed to play music So if you are wondering if you should go or not GO.<br><br> Thank you Katrina we had an amazing time”
