Stunning villa in superb location. Spotlessly clean with all the amenities you would need to have a wonderfully luxurious stay. They villa was very comfortable and made the most of the stunning views from every room, although we couldn’t stay indoors for long as the outside space was so inviting. Dining area, sofa and loungers made the terrace the perfect space for enjoying the spectacular view and sunsets. The villa is within walking distance of great taverna and small shops for essentials but we had a car and we’re able to explore incredible beaches of Balas and Elafonisi. Don’t miss them if you have time during your stay. The hosts were very welcoming and hospitable and even invited us to a family celebration at the tiny church next to the villa. We were honoured to be asked and enjoyed an evening with the family while the sun set over the sea…it was the highlight of an amazing week in Crete. If we are lucky enough to return to the island we will definitely come back to Villia Elia. Thank you!
