I have just spent a fabulous 10 day holiday at Villa Gala with my wife, my son and his girlfriend. Trust me when I say the photos the host (Haris) uses are 100% accurate and I would even say, don’t do the place justice!
The villa inside looks newly renovated and is very clean, with everything you could possible want or need (including a much used ice making machine). Some very nice “hotel” type touches, bathrobes and slipper were waiting for us upon our arrival, and fresh towels, fashioned into swan’s on our freshly laundered beds.
Every bedroom has air conditioning and has plenty of storage and wardrobe space. The mattresses are very comfortable in every room, on the firmer side, which we all appreciated, and we all slept very well.
As for the outside entertainment area, you want for nothing. A large pool, a hot tub, sunny and shaded areas, outdoor cooking facilities, and even a hammock. There is honestly a place for everyone, and collectively offers a very relaxing environment for both day and night.
The villa itself is situated approximately a 5 minute walk from the main beach in Bali. There are plenty of bars and restaurants along the beach front, and lots of sun loungers you can hire for several euros a day. There are also lots of water sports on offer, so plenty for the more active holiday maker to keep them busy. On the beach in front of one bar (Nostos) you even get waiter service on the beach if you are after a more relaxing beach day!
All in all we had a very relaxing and enjoyable time at Villa Gala and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place to anyone, it has everything you need for a wonderful holiday in the Crete sunshine.
