This villa is paradise! We stayed there for a family reunion, with people traveling in from 3 continents, and everyone absolutely loved it. It's so comfortable, stylish and cozy that we didn't want to leave. And when we stepped outdoors, the impression only grew stronger. The pool is so big and beautiful, with many deck chairs, a hammock, tables and sitting areas. Adjacent to it is a beautifully landscaped garden with ample shade and more sitting areas. At the back of the villa is a small basketball court(!) and another beautifully landscaped barbecue area with a gorgeous gazebo which we used for our family meals. The entire front deck is one huge balcony with tables and chairs, to sit there and watch the magnificent Crete sunset over a chilled glass of wine, or enjoy a shaded breakfast and look at the olive groves nearby. The icing on the cake was Alexandros who was a MAGNIFICENT host! He was so attentive, kind and courteous, texting us almost daily to see if we needed anything (cleaning services, lines, towels, etc), and he gave us great tips for wonderful tavernas in the village. My entire family was so impressed and grateful for his incredible hospitality. If it was possible to give this property and host 10 stars - we would.
