I could not speak higher about Villa Chrissi... what a memorable stay. Between Kostas's helpful communication and suggestions, to dinner with Mr. Manolis this has become our new favorite place to stay. The pool is lovely both indoor and out, and the house is clean and comfortable. The astetic of it all is just wonderful too, including their place to pray that Mr. Manolis and his wife painted and created together, right on site. My family dubbed him the most interesting man in the world as he truly does it all... and this Villa comes with more than enough. He has a wine cellar with his own homemade wines, the entire land is a growing garden, and a horse who fits her name, meaning "most beautiful." The Villa is attended to almost everyday by someone, but I can promise you don't at all lose a sense of privacy. They're there to enhance you're experience, and they did for us just that. Crete is beautiful, but you do need a long stay to be able to see it all. However, I would trade two days at Villa Chrissi over anywhere else. For our family trip, it was much a quieter and less touristy experience of Greece. Thank you again Mr. Manolis, we are very grateful!!
