We have just had a two night break at the lovely Melori Villa, which has an excellent location just behind the coastal resort of Bali. It has a great elevated view of the sea from the roof terrace and is surrounded by olive tree covered foothills of the mountains which form the spine of Crete. The villa was very luxurious space-wise for two people, as it can comfortably accommodate up to six people - ideal for a family or a group of friends. The villa has been thoughtfully and attractively decorated by Gianni and his family, with great attention to the details. The bedroom we stayed in had a very comfortable king size bed, good quality bedding and plenty of storage. Throughout the villa the furnishings, kitchen equipment and decorative touches were all of a very good standard. When we arrived there was a tray of delicious Cretan products to sample - including two huge bunches of luscious just-picked grapes. There are plenty of places to sit outside - balconies off the living room and bedrooms - plus a really wonderful roof terrace with fabulous views, a large hot tub, built in BBQ, sun loungers and shaded table and chairs. Bali itself, which has 3/4 different bays with beaches and a variety of tavernas/bars/cafes is within walking distance (about 20 mins downhill to the first bay) or a short (5min) car drive. Giannis was a very hospitable and efficient host responding quickly to our enquiries and making sure that we had everything we needed for a comfortable and memorable stay.
