Guest Reviews

“Es waren wunderbare 2 Wochen in einem Haus in dem man sich sofort zu Hause fühlt. Ein perfekt gepflegter Garten, ein grandioser Blick auf den Kournassee und das Meer. Sehr gute Ausstattung in der Küche und in den Bädern. Ein netter Besitzer. Ein Ort für Menschen die Ruhe suchen abseits vom Hoteltourismus und gern selbst mit dem Auto unterwegs sind. Wir kommen wieder.”

“Joanna Villa is in a quiet, private location with a pretty garden and lovely pool. We had everything we needed for our weeks stay. The owner responded quickly to any questions we had. Would recommend. Chania Old Town is a must to visit. ”

“We were a group of friends with nine people and had a wonderful one-week holiday at Villa Aurora. The hostess Maria welcomed us warmly despite arriving too early and also helped us at any time with other problems or requests. The view from the villa of the olive groves and the sea is beautiful. The villa was well equipped for the number of people and it was within walking distance to the nearby traditional restaurants. All in all, it was a wonderful holiday that we would like to repeat.”

“We spent a lovely week at Villa Resi in the middle of October. This is the fourth time we rent through Chania-Rentals, and we have been very pleased every time. <br><br>Villa Resi is located a couple of kilometers north of the village Vamos, and has a wonderful view of the sea and surrounding landscape, being located on a hill. The villa is well equipped, with two bedrooms with two and three beds. There is also the possibility of one person sleeping on the sofa in the living room. <br><br>The house was clean, and the pool was impeccable. Outside there is a covered terrace where we had all our breakfasts, enjoying the view and the quiet, only interrupted by the cicadas and the occacional sound of sheep. At arrival, our host met us at the house, and he also came to say goodbye, bringing a little gift. Altogether a wonderful place.”

“This was our second time at Victoria Villa, and it was even better than last time. There had been improvements to the outside space, adding a lovely patio area for outside eating and barbecue (with a sink). <br><br>The villa is in a delightful location and is perfect for getting away from it all. But nearby by car is the lake and then the coast where we spent many happy hrs on the beach and in the beach restaurants. <br><br>The owner is very generous, proving a a fantastic welcome pack and also appearing with fish and meat for our barbecuing efforts. We adore Crete and this villa is a very special way to enjoy being there. Can’t wait to come back soon! ”

“Our family of 5 stayed at the villa in June 2023. From the time of arrival until we departed, the hosts were extremely helpful and attentive. The villa is beautifully maintained, clean, spacious and met all our requirements. The pool is fantastic and the surrounding gardens are very well kept. The photographs do full justice to the actual experience. The villa is located just outside the village of Maleme and is in close proximity to Platanias while Chania is just 20 minutes away by car. ”

“This villa is perfection everything you need for you stay with a beautiful location in a quite village but can walk to town and major bus routes easily although I do think a car would be beneficial. We stayed as a family with 4 adults and a toodler and had plenty of space. Can't recommend enough we will return for sure! <br><br> Only downside was no name on the villa outside which made night time arrival a bit difficult but Alexandra (owner) was available on WhatsApp/ phone to guide us! ”

“Wir haben Mitte Oktober hier eine Woche verbracht.Tolles altes, wunderschön renoviertes Haus auf 3 Etagen. Super Ausstattung, gute Beten. Wir wurden herzlIch begrüßt - danke auch für die Aufmerksamkeiten. Schöner Pool, den wir wegen des klasse Wetters auch gern genutzt haben. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. ”

“Calma Villa is a very nice house in a direct, quiet beach location. The furnishings of the house were modern and tasteful, the kitchen equipment was good (a few more coffee cups would have been nice). The room layout was very well done so that everyone had their own area. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back ”

“Wir waren 10 Tage Ende September 23 in der Villa Joanna. Das Haus entspricht genau den Beschreibungen und den Fotos, alles ist sehr sauber, man kann zu Fuß zum Meer, in der Nähe ist ein kleiner Minimarkt mit frischem Brot morgens, 2 größerer Supermärkte sind 5 Minuten mit dem notwendigen Mietwagen entfernt. <br><br>Die Villa ist gut eingerichtet, in der Küche sind Miele Geräte, die Matratzen sind in Ordnung, der Pool war sauber, im Garten gibts Frangipani und Granatapfelbäume - alles sehr schön. Die Besitzer wohnen nebenan und sind sehr bemüht und freundlich und beide sprechen verständlich englisch. <br><br>Was uns gefehlt hat oder nicht so gut gefallen hat: in der Küche ist das Geschirr und Besteck sehr spärlich vorhanden, es gab keine Eierbecher, bei der guten Miele Geschirrspülmaschine brannten alle Lichter und es gab keine Tabs, kein Salz und kein Klarspüler, es fehlte an sowas wie Tupperschüsseln, um Essensreste und offene Packungen aufzubewahren. Da die Besitzerin mich gefragt hat, was sie verbessern könnte, ich arbeite in der Touristikbranche, habe ich ihr aber viele Tipps gegeben, wie sie mit 'lovely little things' das verbessern könnte, was sie über den Winter sicher tun wird. <br><br>Das zweite ist der Ort Maleme und der Nachbarort Platanias, die haben uns im Vergleich zu Georgioupolis, wo wir 2022 waren, nicht so gut gefallen und waren auf eine nicht so schöne Art touristisch. Es gab allerdings einen tollen Regionalladen in Maleme an der Hauptstraße und zwischen den beiden Orten haben wir einen nicht überfüllten netten Strandabschnitt gefunden mit einer kleinen Strandbar und kostenlosen Liegestühlen. Man muß neben dem Coop Supermarkt zum Strand abbiegen, da kann man parken und hat seine Ruhe. Der Zugang zum Meer ist überall steinig, es empfiehlt sich, Badeschuhe mitzunehmen oder vor Ort zu kaufen.”

“We spent 16 days in the Euphoria villa during September 2023 and felt very spoiled. The villa offers excellent accommodation including a well equipped kitchen. The view over Souda bay, the private pool and the garden are amazing. Manolis, our host, made everything easy for us. <br><br> The villa is very well positioned close to Plaka village with great traditional restaurants and good supermarkets, but also close to Kokkino Khorio village, where the famous Zorba the Greek movie was filmed. The closest beach is Almyrida but having a car allowed us to go to Kalyves sandy beach, which is one of the best in Crete.. <br><br>We really enjoyed our stay and we’ll definitely come back.”
