“This was our third stay at Villa Victoria since 2013 and each time it captivates us with its lovely private pool, garden, spectacular views over Lake Kournas, the mountains and toward the sea where the town of Geogiopoulis is just a 10 minute drive away. There are 3 tavernas within a 5 minute drive of the villa.<br><br> Giannis, the owner, is very generous host and is always contactable in the event of any problem.<br><br> A very relaxing peaceful place to spend a holiday. We look forward to returning in the future. ”

“One of the nicest Villas we have stayed in. Location was so peaceful. We had such a relaxing time.The villa was very spacious and kept very clean. Kitchen was well equipped with everything you would need to self cater. The outside space was amazing, a large area and different areas to sit. Lovely view out to sea. The pool was just gorgeous.<br><br> The owner made us a Moussaka which was very kind, also delicious, thank you.<br><br> Plenty of places to visit in the area.<br><br> We definitely hope we can return at some time.”

“We had a wonderful time here and have already booked for next year. It was that good and weather was fantastic. Villa was immaculately clean and on the whole, very comfortable. The only downside was the double bed mattress was verh firm, My girlfriend had to sleep on the lounge sofa as after one night in the bed, she had aches where she was lying. <br><br> Pool was warm, clean and very big and views to die for. Great location and easy to get to vamos, georgioupolis, almerida, Gavalohori etc. <br><br> Owner was very kind and welcoming. <br><br> We can't wait to return. ”

“Our group of ten adults spent a week in this beautiful villa in September. All facilities were in good contition, the view from villa was spectacular! Specially in the evening when the sun was setting down.<br><br> Only slight minus was the bit remote location of the villa, but then again if you want privacy this place is berfect for you. Taxi to/from Chania central costed about 25 euros/ one way, so that wasn't too bad either. Rental car is recomendable if you rent this villa.<br><br> I would definitelly recomend this villa!!”

“Just a few words to express how happy we were staying at the best villa in Crete and the local area of Maza it was absolutely a joy to enjoy the ambience and the local hospitality we have been to Crete before but that was 13 year's ago and we will have no hesitation in recommending this villa and the other villa's in Kontis village 10 out of 10 is the only mark I can give and to the owner also many thanks and regards and hope to come back again Efcharisto. .....”

“We stayed at Villa Euphoria in September 2016. We were greeted upon our arrival by the Owners and one of their son's, Manolis. Manolis showed us around the villa and explained to us how to operate all the appliances. There was a welcome pack of essentials, coffee, tea bags, water, bread, margarine, cheese, ham and oranges. There was also laundry detergent and hand soap in the bathrooms. <br><br>The villa was very clean and was cleaned once a week by the Aunt of Manolis. The kitchen is well stocked with glassware and crockery but we identified to Manolis that the kitchen could benefit from a few more cooking pans and ovenware he said that this is something he will be providing in the villa soon. We asked where the safe box was but unfortunately he said there wasn't one. He did however appear the next day and fitted one. This we thought was excellent service. <br><br>The Wi-fi has limited coverage, it is ok in the lounge and front patio area but does not extend upstairs and around the pool and BBQ area. We found the internet connection to be slow and unreliable. <br><br>The pool and BBQ areas are spacious and we enjoyed watching the beautiful sunsets from the BBQ seating area every evening. It was really magical. The view from the villa over Souda bay is quite spectacular. The villa is in a very good location and only 0.8miles from the village of Plaka. There are two grocery stores in Plaka and a DIY store. There are 3 Tavernas in Plaka square and in the evening there is a lovely ambience there. Almyrida is 2 miles from the villa, mostly downhill but it is quite a steep walk back home. Taxi from Almyrida to the villa was 8 Euros. <br><br> This a family owned and family run villa and each year the family strive to make additions to keep improving the facilities for the comfort of their guests. <br><br> Overall our experience at Villa Euphoria was excellent. We shall definitely return. Thank you Manolis and your family for a wonderful holiday. ”

“We spent a wonderful time in Villa Margarita 2. The house was new, clean and you can enjoy the ocean and mountain view. Our favorite were the fresh eggs and the products from the organic gardens. Thank you, we highly recommend.”

“Our taxi arrived at 2100 on a Saturday night at Villa Campos in Georgioupolis. It was dark with a lot of stars - and the first sight of the illuminated house was so beautiful, still nothing compared to the warm and personal greek welcome with which Chrissy met us. She had been shopping for us from an &quot;opening-list&quot; and she gave us a tour in the beautiful and very tastefully built and furnished rooms. We were so pleased. The was a lovely bouquet of flowers on the table together with raki with honey & cinnamon on the house aa well as that charcoal for the grill. It is a fully equipped kitchen and furthermore everything for cleaning the kitchen, so we only had to shop for food! You see all the rooms on the internet, but on top of that I can tell you, at each bathroom there are products for the bath, hair etc. The towels is a chapter own its own: White, thick and lovely towels - both for the bathroom and for the pool. We stayed for 10 days and they were changed twice and likewise the bed sheets. <br><br>The pool had a life of its own: the pool man came every morning early and cleaned is and he took along the garbage - pure luxury. We were 5 adults and a child aged from 18 months to 76 and it was a fantastic week.<br><br> The only thing we would change were the pillows, they looked lovely, but we all found them too much (neck paints).<br><br> We did not have a car, the baby stroller all right, but on our way to the shopping square, we passed geese, chickens and lambs and crossed a small bridge where a little harbour with the fishing boats were, can you imagine that in a distance of only 5-600 meters? Unfortunately, during our stay the fishermen brought no big fishes in, only small ones, so that we had to buy in Rethymnon or order in the restaurant. We highly recommend to visit the butchers - big, juicy steaks very inexpensive, well that goes for everything he sold, and in Villa Campos your can cook it to perfection and enjoy eating it in this lovely place with the most beautiful view to the next village uphill lit up - romantic? Oh Yes!”

“Myself and my wife stayed at Villa Metochi for two weeks in September and we are already considering coming back next year!<br><br> The villa itself is large with plenty of space. The villa has all your regular mod cons but the roof terrace and the pool are to die for. From the roof terrace all you can see if the ocean in the distance while at the same time being surrounded by Olive Trees. If it's a relaxing break you are after then this is the place for you.<br><br> The villa is only a 20 mins drive from Chania and it's old port. However, we particularly enjoyed the little fishing village of Kolymvari which is only 5 mins drive from the villa. Here you will find all manner of tavernas serving fresh fish and traditional Cretan dishes.<br><br> All in all this was an amazing holiday. We would like to thank the owners and Chania rentals for giving us our dream vacation.”

“We stayed 10 days at Lefteris Villa in Maleme. The beautiful house met all of our requirements! Spacious, very clean and a super friendly landlord and landlady. Maleme is a good starting point to discover the island. ”

“Our third time at Villa Vallia this time for 4 rather than 2 weeks. Loved the place. With visits over 6 years the place still looks new. Maria and her team must work very hard to keep up he standard.<br><br> Also Maria is to be thanked for how well she pre-loaded the fridge and freezer and for the meals she provided along the way.<br><br> Would recommend the place to all. ”
