“We have just arrived home after spending a wonderful 10 days in victoria villa. All the previous reviews were spot on. We have stayed in many villas in different countries and can't see how you beat this. The views are exactly as they are in the photos ...Breathtaking. Never have we stayed in such a peaceful location just the odd sheeps bell ringing in the distance.<br><br> The villa has everything you need and the owner Yanos is the nicest man you could ever meet. He constantly brought us fresh produce and wine and because we arrived late afternoon supplied us with everything you could need for next mornings breakfast saving us a trip to the supermarket. In his words just Greek hospitality. <br><br>You do need a car but you have such a good choice of tavernas and restaurants. You have 4 or 5 within a kilometre overlooking the lake but a 5 minute drive into georgiopouli and you uncover a lovely quaint town with no building over 3 floors high with even better places to eat. We highly recommend Nostos, Valnikos and asposdida restaurants all family run with great food and the best service around.”
“We have Just returned from a lovely week at Joanna Villa. Lefteris and Alexandra were wonderful and welcomed us with a huge table of fruit and wine. The villa is just lovely, beautifully clean and well equipped and we had a great family holiday there. ”
“We spent a week at Villa Joanna. From there we visited different places with a rental car. We were heartily welcomed with a big basket of fruits and wine. Alexandra and Lefteris are very friendly, sympathetic and helpful people. We were in very good hands with them. They always gave us tips for our daily trips (stands, restaurants, bars, attractions).<br><br> The villa corresponds to the photos. It is a beautiful place and was very clean. We liked the style and the decoration very much. We were 4 persons and had breakfast outside every morning. The area was very quiet and the pool very refreshing. The villa has enough space for 6 people. The rooms are beautifully decorated. There is a free parking place. <br><br>We rellay enjoyed our vacation in this villa. Thank you. Next time we book more than 1 week!”
“Una villa bellissima sia dentro che fuori,dotata di ogni comodità! Non si può chiedere di più! I proprietari sono carinissimi e gentilissimi,spero di poterci tornare molto presto!! Super raccomandata!”
“The is the first time I have booked a villa through Chania Rentals and can honestly say it was faultless. The communication with Vlahakis when making the booking and leading up to the holiday was perfect. On arrival at the airport the rental company were there to greet us (we booked a car also through Vlahakis). The directions were spot on and we arrived late at night where Giannis was waiting, ready to welcome us in a kitchen stocked with tasty treats, beer and wine.<br><br> It wasn’t until the next morning that we really appreciated the spectacular view and gorgeous location.<br><br> The villa itself was comfortable and spotless. It had all what we needed and more. My active 11 year old boy spent the week diving and playing in the lovely pool which is deep enough for adults to dive into also. <br><br> It is situated in a peaceful location and nature was in abundance with cicadas, geckos, preying mantis, bats and all sorts of birds. <br><br> We bought a guide book and had planned to go on a number of day trips. However, once we got there we abandoned those plans and spent the week in the area, snorkelling in the beautiful Lake Kournas, visiting the nearby tavernas and relaxing by the pool. <br><br> We bumped into Giannis in a local taverna one evening where he treated us to a round of drinks. What a nice guy. We will definitely book again. Thank you for your hospitality.”
“Great location for spending a holiday! Very nice house with spacious rooms. Very clean, modern and very well equipped. There is just everything you need: washing machine, all kind of machines in the kitchen, climate in every room, mosquito protection (fly screens) in all rooms... The only disturbing thing is the noise made by cicadas - but this is not avoidable around the Mediterranean! ;)<br><br> Very polite and friendly host family, that cleans on demand and is always available for requests. For reaching nice beaches and shops a car is recommended!<br><br> Overall: 10 out of 10 points!”
“Wir hatten tolle Ferien in diesem Haus, es war alles vorhanden, von allen Terassen hat man einem einzigartigen Ausblick auf die Souda Bucht, 2 tolle Tavernen und ein Minimarket runden die Gesamtbewertung ab. Danke an den Vermieter für die Erstverpflegung am ersten Abend, wir werden das Haus weiterempfehlen”
“We spent one week in August 2019. The Villa was very well maintened, very clean and the furnitures were good. We asked for a baby cot and we had two beds with very good mattresses. The garden was beautifull with flowers and fruit tree. It is a very peacefull place. We had only the sound of the cicadas. During the night, the view on the upstair terrace was just wonderfull. The only drawback was that we were bitten by mosquitos every night. We had a very pleasant holiday in this Villa.”
“6 adults and 4 children have just returned from a great week at Villa Aurora. We all loved the high spec, contemporary and spacious villa, huge and well established garden, safe pool and incredible 360 degree views. There was enough shade and a welcome breeze during the day with wonderful lighting at night for watching the bats and owls. The single rooms were ok for two beds each and we made use of the sofa bed too- all comfortable. Good kitchen equipment and sufficient crockery and cutlery made eating in easy. <br><br> A car is essential but we still appreciated being away from busier areas as the house was so wonderfully peaceful. The owners met us when we arrived late and had done a shop for essentials we'd asked for which made our first evening and morning much easier. They were responsive to all our queries too. Booking and payment all simple through Chania Rentals.<br><br> Location is fabulous, we easily managed a wonderful beach day at The Wave on the Rock at Ravdoucha ( our favourite) and Falassarna, a day in Chania, a trip to Knossos, the water park at Varipetro and the Botanical Gardens. Recommend the ruins at Aptera and the beach at Georgiopolis from a previous trip, again all easily accessible. Lidl down the road!<br><br> All in all a wonderful villa for a three generation family holiday! Thank you!”
“We have spent two marvellous weeks in Villa Aurora and our stay has been perfect! three families and 5 children would have been difficult but cmodities, pool and the hudge garden allowed us to spend any single day over there in a peaceful and happy mood. CONSIGLIATISSIMA! : )”
“10 jours au TOP avec un accueil soigné<br> Maison parfaite ”
“Hi We spent a wonderful journey in this house. The view is incredible and the swimming pool is great. The house is spacious and the person who welcomed us was very helpful.Two points should be improved : domestic equipments (Owen and washing machine) are really old and the cleaning could be better. We recommend highly this location.”
