Description

Lefteris home dates back to the 18th century. During the German Occupation the house was a hideout for the Cretan rebels. Today it has been restored with respect to tradition and transformed into two adjacent, yet independent villas; Lefteris Villa and Joanna Villa. Great care has been taken to keep the beauty and aura of its original architecture.

The villas are notable for their impressive stone archways and architectural elements of the time hidden in corners and unexpected areas. Each villa has its own high walled courtyard providing privacy. The villas are located in the area of Metochi, 1km away from the historic village Maleme and 10min walk away from the beach.

Joanna villa is 200sq.m, surrounded by a beautiful garden, of which a big part is covered with grass, where a private pool with an integral children’s area and a barbecue are found. The villa has two shaded entrances, both of them under stone arches, where you can relax away from the hot sun of the summer midday.

The villa has three floors. At the ground floor there are the living room with the stone walls and the fireplace, the kitchen and a wc. The first floor consists of a bathroom, a twin bedroom with a private balcony overlooking the pool, a double bedroom with a four-poster bed and an en suite bathroom with jacuzzi and a common bathroom. The entire second floor is a bedroom with a four-poster bed and a private balcony with sea view.

Magnificent Villla

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week stay at this beautiful villa and will certainly return on our next holiday to Crete. The villa is well laid out and equipped with everything you need. The outdoor area has a beautiful large pool where we spent many an evening barbecuing under the sunshine.

Leftares and Alexandra are wonderful hosts always on hand to promptly resolve any issues you may have and willing to provide useful information on places to visit and good restaurants to dine in.

The location is excellent with shops and restaurants nearby and only a short drive to the wonderful city of Chania. We can only highly recommend Villa Joanna and look forward to returning in the future.

Fantastic Villa ,amazing hosts

Just back from a fantastic 14 days with the family. Having rented private villas in the USA and the Med. the last 15 years Villa Joanna definitely is one of the best.The otherwise excellent reviews and photos don’t do it justice. It was better. Normally we are wary of renting a villa with the owners right next door, but in this case it was only a bonus . The hosts are one of the nicest , most welcoming,helpful yet unobtrusive families that it would be possible to meet.This is also reflected in the style and quality of the Villa and general cleanliness .

Set in a nice rural location yet only a 10-15 walk to the beach ( we also saw a newly hatched turtle making its bid for freedom) or local tavernas . Otherwise everything has been said about Chania and the surrounding area , which is probably why you’re considering booking in this area anyway.

Can 100% recommend booking this Villa and also through Chania Rentals who were always quick to reply to my queries.Hope to be back.
