Avis Luxurious villa with private private heated pool & spectacular views

Très bon séjour dans cette belle maison, agréable et très pratique lorsqu'on est plusieurs familles / amis. Super propre, hôte charmant (La réactivité par mail n'est pas grande mais sur place ils répondront tout de suite à toutes vos questions). Nous étions avec un bébé et nous avons eu tout le matériel nécessaire (lit, chaise, baignoire). Le petit village de Melidoni est lui aussi très agréable, notamment pour sa bonne taverne. Jardin agréable avec une belle piscine et une jolie vue sur les montagnes.

Amazing 200 year-old beautifully-restored villa, with vintage-esque furniture and decorations, but also included all modern utilties (air-conditioner, showers, wifi, dishwasher, washing machine, two refridgerators, etc.). The entire property was gorgeous, with tons of fresh oranges and lemons on the trees. The pool was a good size and very clean, and perfect for cooling off after a hot day in the sun. Plenty of room inside and outside for large groups. Located in the middle of an adorable little town with a two minute walk to the local tavern, store, and cafes. By the way, the tavern is supposed to close at midnight, but very often stays open longer and the owner will eagerly teach you how to dance traditional Greek dances. Property owners are very friendly, hospitable, quick to reply, and ready to help with any issues or provide any recommendations. We hope to be back one day!

Het is een prachtig huis in heel mooie gedeelte van Kreta, een mooi eigen terrein met een slaapkamer incl badkamer echt geheel apart als huisje aan het zwembad! Super leuk. De andere 4 slaapkamers waren in het vakantie huis zelf en was alles goed geregeld. Enige min punt is dat de douche koppen niet opgehangen kunnen worden en dat je bij het slapen gaan de luiken dicht moet houden en airco aan ivm met stoken van het hout en geen horren aanwezig zijn. Maar als je de luiken dicht doet dan slaap je heerlijk en lang ivm dat het super donker is!! Echt een top verblijf. Fijn ook dat een grotere supermarkt er op loopafstand is alles heeft en leuk dorpje met echt goed Grieks eten! Een aanrader!!

We had a very pleasant stay in this super complete Mansion, hosted by its very gentle owners. A recommendation for families with kids! Enjoy your stay!

Wir haben einen tollen Urlaub in dem Haus verbracht, toller schöner großer Pool zzgl Kinderpool/whirlpool, tolle Lage in Melidoni mit süßen Dorfkern und 2 Supermärkten sowie Restaurants. Es kam in den 2 Wochen sogar ein Putzservice. Wir waren 10 Personen und hatten ausreichend Platz. Waschmaschine, ausreichend Handtücher waren vorhanden. Toller großer Esstisch im Außenbereich. Am Pool gab es ausreichend Liegen. Ganz toll fanden wir das Begrüßungspaket der Vermieter. Zitronenbäume, orangen, Wein, Pflaumen,... können geerntet werden. Wir können das Haus wärmstens weiterempfehlen.

Property has the best of both worlds. Privacy and seclusion and easy walking access to the heart of the village with x2 restaurant/cafe and x2 minimarkets. Bakery a 10 minute drive. Beaches from 20 minutes. The drive to the property is a bit hairy on the first occasion - go slow and use google maps.

This cherished house has been in the proud ownership of the same family, over many generations, and they have lovingly maintained and updated it with great care and attention to detail, ensuring guests are comfortable and welcome. The property comprises a superb swimming pool and sun lounger area, a large outdoor dining area with bbq and pizza oven, the main house, and a garden house. Everything just works really well and, for those who like to cook, the kitchen is well appointed with plenty of crockery, cutlery, glasses, and cookware. Our family prefers the freedom of self-catering villas, and this is without doubt one of the best properties we have rented. The local town square of Melidoni is five minutes walk, and has two small supermarkets and restaurants/bars - Dili-Dili (run by Ioannis and family) and Carob & Olive (Katarina and team) - which are both great for when you want to go local and sit alongside the residents and soak up the atmosphere. Perama is 15 minutes drive and is great for larger supermarkets, restaurants and bars. Can recommend Thraka.com for food, and the bakery next door for fresh baklava, pastries, and bread. Rethymno is good for a day out (recommend Nyn & Aei for small-plates style lunch), and Panormas, a charming port town closer to home, with restaurants overlooking the old port. Beaches at Bali are bustling and great for sunbathing and cove swimming. If you want a quiet swim there are many coves to explore away from the big towns. Just loved it, and was sad to say goodbye. Next time, we will visit Chania and other places we didn't make it to! Many thanks to Chrysoula and family for an unforgettable holiday.

This was an exceptional villa in Crete. We would highly recommend to all! The pool and grounds were extremely spacious and beautiful. We made freshly squeezed orange juice daily from the fruits on the trees. The villa itself has a lot of character, is clean and exceptionally well maintained. It was easy to relax and spacious for two families. The hosts were extremely lovely and responsive. I hope we get to return one day!

Fantastic property with all amenities in a great little village. Swimming pool is fantastic only whished we had better weather to enjoy it. Rethymno is a little gem , beaches nearby are fantastic
