“We visited Villa Adriana in late October and had a fabulous time! The view was stunning and utterly memorable. The house itself was clean, attractive and well equipped. And the area was lovely. We were made to feel really welcome (the Raki and cakes were much appreciated!).”

“With 10 friends we have enjoyed the Remvi villa for only a week (sadly) but is was wonderful! One of the best vacations we ever had. The area is greatl, with Chania nearby and some nice walkingtrips not far away. I would recommend a car to get around, but for some light shopping or groceries you can easely walk down the hill. The house itself is beautiful, with all the things you can ask for. The view from the pool is spectaculare and later at night you can enjoy the brick-kiln to make your own pizza's! We would recommend this place to everyone.”

“Nous avons séjourné à la villa Maritina en aout 2012 avec notre enfant de 5 ans, un couple d\'amis et leurs 2 enfants de 5 ans et 3 ans. Nous avons été enchantés par notre séjour à la villla. C\'est tout ce que nous recherchions pour nos vacances: une villa au calme, au milieu des oliviers sur les hauteurs.... la vue et le cadre nous ont tout simplement subjugués !<br><br> La situation nous a paru idéale: tout en étant au calme, on rejoint la route côtière en qqs minutes et donc proches des commerces et des axes principaux. Cette situation nous a permis de faire la plupart des destinations touristiques de l\'ouest et du sud de l\'ile ( Chania, Balos, Gorges de Samaria, Elafonisi, Arkadi ...). Les prestations du logement sont vraiment de qualité: propreté, entretien des espaces verts, équipement ménager: tout est là.<br><br> villa très confortable; piscine qu\'on utilise volontiers en fin de journée après les visites du jour; plusieurs terrasses pour profiter du cadre à différents moments de la journée..... petits et grands conquis !!! Excellent accueil du propriétaire : corbeille de fruits, huile d\'olive, vin local et produits de première nécessité dans le frigo à notre arrivée. Il nous a volontiers conseillé sur nos escapades. super contact. En bref, vous l\'aurez compris: on vous conseille vivement la villa avec tout ce qu\'elle comporte de charme et de dépaysement !

“It was a nice place and i can recoment it.”

“Everything was perfect, at the house and the weather. We had 11 persons at the house, and every single one fall in love for Crete. And even we had 11 people there, there weren't cramped. The old couple(Mr. and Mrs. Salonen) are going back at spring, but this house is a bit too big for two perons, even though it is incrediably lovely. For the bigger group of people, we deffenetly recommend to rent this house. :) Genial thanks again for the owners! Kind Regards Birgit Salonen and my whole family from Finnland!”

“We had a very comfortable stay in Gianna villa. There is a beautiful view from the villa, a nice swimming pool, a garden, vegetable gardens, trees, and in general it is a peaceful setting. The villa is well-equipped for cooking at home, but we also had very good food in the tavernas in Vryses and nearby. There are places to sit outside on either side of the villa, so you can always find shelter if it is windy. It is on the road south to Skafon and many beautiful gorges for walking and good beaches both north and south.”

“With 6 persons we had an excellent week in October in Aretousa1. A perfect house, a big garden with many tables and chairs, a beautiful swimming pool, a nice bbq with terrace, we enjoyed it very well. The house was very clean, flowers on the table, water in the fridge, a bowl with a lot of fruits. Very good service of these nice owners. We recommend this house with a far sea view.”

“We had a wonderfull stay in the villa eleni. You really get what you see on the pictures. Everything was nice and the view is just amazing, its the perfect place to turn off and relax. The owner of the villa was very friendy, you can ask him everything. The key handover was no problem. I can highly recommend this villa!”

“Very enjoyable restful holiday in a beautiful villa with stunning views. Manos the owner very welcoming and his hospitality of a constant supply of his organic olive oil and wine etc was greatly appreciated. We loved the seclusion and didn't feel overlooked by the nearby villa. We enjoyed staying at the villa and relaxing but the coast road was only a 10 minute drive and tarvanas, shops etc are in plentiful supply in nearby Platanias. We didn't have any negatives but would of welcomed a more comfortable relaxing chair indoors and the digital TV to have one more channel out of 900 in English. These are trivial things and did not distract from our overall enjoyment of the whole holiday. THANKYOU”

“Fantastic house, excellent infrastructure, a little bit remote but beautifully located, great people, excellent contacts - we would go again any time!”

“Fabulous property in a remote location surrounded by olive groves as far as you can see. The villa was very spacious with three bedrooms on the top floor, all with balconies and magnificent views. The two bedrooms in the basement were less appealing, but were nevertheless fine. The outside area including the swimming pool were fantastic as was the large open plan kitchen/dining room/lounge on the first floor. There are plenty of sun loungers and chairs so that you can eat alfresco in a variety of different locations around the grounds. The villa is located up a rather steep hill, which at night time is completely unlit, so not very practical for the less fit travellers. A short walk from the villa is the old town of Agia Marina which has a very good selection of local restaurants, the main street running through the town had a large number of eating places but these were aimed at the less adventurous or those with young children. It is advisable to pack some ear plugs as despite the remote location, the surrounding properties all had dogs which barked throughout the night. Most of the other visitors to the town seem to be from Scandinavia, so if you are looking for a Brit free holiday then this is the place for you. We coped without a car during our visit as the local buses to Chania are frequent and cheap, however, if you wish to travel further than Chania you may need a hire car for some of your stay. All in all we had a very enjoyable two weeks at the villa and would happily return to the area. ”
