Having stayed in Chania in 2019 we travelled from Ireland for our long-awaited return holiday to Crete to stay at Villa Night Flower for 11 nights in June 2022.
We booked the villa through Kostas and his team at Etouri and they were extremely efficient in dealing with our booking and assisting us with booking taxis and advise on local services during our holiday.
We had a wonderful holiday, and the house was a fantastic base for exploring all of this beautiful region of Crete.
Our host Nikos could not have been more welcoming and was an excellent host. He was extremely helpful throughout our holiday with any queries we had and Nikos’s father generously prepared a delicious traditional Greek pastitsio for us all on our final day for lunch.
The house was spectacular with beautiful architectural features and immaculate gardens. It was very spacious for two families with room for adults and teenagers to relax in the indoor and outdoor areas including an exercise, table tennis and gaming room.
It had a fantastic pool with plenty of sun loungers and shaded spaces to sit if needed. The house is set in a beautiful peaceful wooded area, and we enjoyed the sounds of the birds as we swam and relaxed outside.
The air-conditioning was great, silent, and very cooling. The villa was cleaned three times during our stay, and we were provided with clean sheets and towels.
We enjoyed many evenings BBQing and eating outside at the large dining table.
We also enjoyed the delicious Greek food at many of the local restaurants including Periplous and Salavantes.
We did many trips from the house including evening swims at Kalathas Beach, Loutraki and Falasarna.
The house is close to the beautiful city of Chania (10-minute drive) where we enjoyed lovely dinners in the evenings watching the sunsets and great shopping.
We hired a private boat from Chania and had a wonderful day with Manos and Sophia again on their traditional Greek boat https://www.manoscruises.com/ We went snorkelling, jumping off the boat and enjoyed an amazing BBQ prepared for us. This as on our previous trip with Manos was one of the highlights of our holiday.
The waterpark is only a 20-minute drive away, it was very well organised and we spent the whole day enjoying it.
We love Crete and staying at Villa Night Flower made it another very special holiday. I couldn’t recommend this villa highly enough and look forward to a return visit.
