If you're looking for a lovely authentic Cretan experience, I can highly recommend staying at the Amazing Stone Villa. Yiannis and Mary, the owners, were both lovely and welcoming. Maria's Tavern is a must if you stay. We enjoyed climbing near Kapetaniana and Agiofarango.

Being part of the Koumasa excavation team, we stayed in Vasiliki for three nights. It was our first time at the Amazing Stone Villa, undoubtedly to be followed by many others. We got a three-room apartment with two double bedrooms and a living room / kitchen. Yiannis and Mary were very accomodating, the villa is newly refurbished and offers great facilities, all clean, new and in good taste. We highly recommend it!

Nachdem wir vor 6 Jahren auf Kreta in der Amazing Stone Villa waren. Waren wir zu viert wieder nach Kreta gereist und haben wiederum die Amazing Stone Villa gebucht. Die Schlafzimmer haben eine Klimaanlage, die erholsame Nächte ermöglicht. Wir können die Amazing Stone Villa im Süden Kretas nur empfehlen, gerade für Familien die Individual-Urlaub bevorzugen und KEINEN Pauschalurlaub. Die Villa bietet genügend Platz für 4 Personen. Gutes WLAN ist vorhanden. Wir hatten einen Mietwagen und von Heraklion Flughafen ist man in 1 Std bei der Amazing Stone Villa. Von hier aus kann man tolle Ausflüge unternehmen: z.B. Tripiti Strand => Fahrt dorthin ist ein richtiges Abenteuer, neu eröffnetes Archäologischen Museum von Mesara, sowie die archälogische Stätte von Gortyna empfehlenswert, und es ist nicht weit nach Matala und Stränden dort. Für einen Ausflug nach Spinalonga (in der Nähe von Agios Nikolaos) haben wir einen Tagesausflug über eine recht bekannte Internetseite für Ausflüge gebucht. Neben typisch griechischen Spezialitäten Restaurant können wir sehr die Restaurants / Pizzaria LaNotte kurz vor Mires (Moires) und Taverna Kritamos kurz nach dem archäologischem Museum sehr empfehlen! Ein reichhaltiger Lidl und ein großer griechischer Supermarkt (Χαλκιαδάκης ΜαΧ) haben alles was man für Selbstverpflegung braucht. Es ist wirklich ein Ort, an dem man sich entspannen, zur Ruhe kommen und den täglichen Problemen entfliehen kann!

Séjour fantastique à la villa, tout a été très bien, de l'accueil avec les petits produits locaux et la symphatie de Yannis à l'arrivée la propreté de la villa, l'équipement optimal , la villa est très belle, et on s y sent bien. Endroit stratégique pour le secteur de kapetaniana, agio farango... Village et alentours authentiques . Nous recommandons vivement une étape par cet endroit.

Das alte Haus wurde von den Vermietern wunderschön renoviert und liebevoll eingerichtet. Es bietet für vier Personen genügend Platz (und mit dem Appartment sogar für sechs bis sieben) und ist einen perfekten Ausgangspunkt für Erkündungstouren im Gebirge als auch der "Jagd" nach kleineren Buchten. Die Gegend ist wenig touristisch, dafür aber umso authentischer. Die Vermieter warten beim Ankunft mit Kuchen, einer Hausführung und vielen Tipps und Vorschlägen auf; vom versteckten Bucht bis zur Taverna fürs Abendessen und Wochenmarkt. Alles in allem, wirklich empfehlenswert!

Sehr freundliches Vermieterpaar, das jederzeit gut erreichbar und sehr zuverlässig war, echte kretische Gastfreundschaft. Die Dusche quietscht beim Zusammenziehen der Kabine. Bett könnte breiter sein.
