A great villa in a fabulous location!!!!
We had a lovely holiday and would certainly recommend to others.
The best thing about this villa is definitely the location and fantastic views. The views from the rear of the villa , main living room, terraces , pool area are excellent, looking out to sea , watching all the sea-going traffic and water-sports was a real pleasure.
There is a good restaurant, beach bar and a super, traditional , very reasonable Greek taverna all within ten minutes walk (although it is quite steep ) .
Nearby beach ( loutraki) is small but very nice and round the bay ( Marathi ) there is a larger beach with lots of restaurants and water-sports etc ( 5 min drive)
It is possible to enter the sea from the rocks ( not too difficult) , 5 minutes walk from the villa.
We explored a little around the area and visited the monasteries, deserted villages and archeological sites which were interesting all within a half hours drive.
We did visit Chania old town but traffic / parking was a bit of a hassle and although it was attractive it was really busy ( July ) .
The villa itself was clean , attractive and well maintained. Comfy beds, hot showers and great air conditioning. Pool was lovely. Outdoor areas very private. We were the first guests and we did make some suggestions to make it even better and if these things are followed up then the villa will be top notch !!
We did contact the owners , who were very nice, a number of times during our stay over one or two little issues and they came back to us straight the way and sorted things gladly.
All in all it is a lovely villa in a super location if you want a nice , relaxing , quiet holiday . We would definitely return.
Just one point , we arrived in the dark and it was quite tricky finding the villa so you need to make sure you follow the instructions / use technology carefully!
