Villa Lemoni is exactly as described. It's beautiful. Impossible to fault it from a location and quality point of view. With the Villa being located centrally in the north of Crete, it offers a good base for exploring different parts of the island.
Communication before and during our stay was excellent. The booking process was seamless.
We had an issue on arrival with leftover rubbish from previous guests and it was clear that people had been smoking in and around the villa and pool area, but Valia was hot on the case and it was quickly resolved by staff at the neighbouring resort. The staff were hugely apologetic and brought us wine, fruit and flowers. So, despite a far from perfect first impression, it was put right quickly.
A word of practical advice. We debated long and hard over whether we'd need a villa with a heated pool. In the end we decided we liked the look of Villa Lemoni so much, we'd risk it. That was probably our only error on an otherwise perfect trip. We stayed in late October and the pool was freezing cold, far too cold for my wife to enjoy. I expect this is not the case during the warmer months.
If you're looking for a beautiful villa in a great location, then you won't go far wrong with Villa Lemoni. Valia as a host, is extremely personable, professional and responsive - I would highly recommend both the villa and host.
