Our family of 4 (boys 13 & 15) enjoyed a wonderful 2 weeks at Adrianna Villa 3 in Bali in July 2020. We have stayed in a number of villas, both in Crete and other places, and can honestly say this is one of the best to date. The villa itself is very modern and has everything you could need for a comfortable stay. It is beautifully decorated, both inside and out and even has a Nespresso machine! There was plenty of space for 4 people. The pool is a good size for refreshing dips and is all the one depth of 1.1m. It was the perfect addition to the villa and we enjoyed lots of time in it.
The view is of the beautiful Cretan mountains and there is a lovely upstairs balcony seating area off the main bedroom where you can watch the sunset and enjoy a sundowner! There is a gas bbq that was easy to use and sparkling clean.
Georgios met us at the villa and left wine, fruit and a bottle of his own Olive Oil, which we used and enjoyed. He showed us around and was available throughout our stay for anything we needed.
The location of the villa is ideal - it is within walking distance of the beach and many tavernas, less than 5mins walk. The nearest beach is lovely and is perfect for families. Bali has 4 beaches in total to choose from - we particularly liked Evita beach for it's crystal clear waters and it is great for snorkelling.
You would not need a car if staying in this villa, but as it was cheaper to have one for the 2 weeks than take a taxi from Chania airport, it was a better option for us and we found it handy for shopping and exploring. There's a port about 15mins walk from the villa that you can book boat trips or scuba diving from and it has a lovely localised and unspoilt charm about it.
Overall, I would highly recommend Adrianna Villas and Bali as a place to stay in Crete and we hope to visit again in the future. Thanks Georgios!
