Warm, friendly and professional host. Excellent communication, prior and during our stay. Vilia House is modern and very well equipped, very spacious with ample living space, as a group of two families with four teenage kids we all felt very comfortable.
Vilia House is situated in the middle of an old olive orchard and sits at the top of a hill with its own private gate, it feels very private and self contained. The house is not in a tourist area and therefore in a quiet location but excellently situated for travelling around the island. Beaches and attractions are all within easy reach. However, having your own transport I believe is essential to make the most of the surrounding area. We hired a seven seater from a excellent local hire company, Kriti Plus who delivered and collected from the house. If you are flying into Chania, I recommend using the host's transport arrangements as it easy and well priced.
The old town in Chania, particularly in the old quarter and port area offers a range of restaurants, bars and entertainment. We selected to use taxi's in the evening to go into the old town, 7-10 euro's a trip, approx. 15 mins.
