GrapeVine Villa

Der Außenbereich ist sehr schön, die Lage ruhig und gut geeignet für Unternehmungen. Das Dorf kann man in wenigen Minuten erreichen. Die Gastgeber sind sehr herzlich und verwöhnten uns mit Wein, Kuchen und Früchten.

In der Küche müssten die Pfannen erneuert werden, ein oder zwei kleinere Töpfe wären vorteilhaft.

Tous..... Des hôtes charmants .Riens a redire,allez y les yeux fermés. Pavagiwtys et sophia sont excellents et pleins d attentions.Merci a eux Nous avons passé d excellents moments en leur compagnie. Le gîte était au calme,propre et surtout magnifique Encore merci.

We loved our stay at the GrapeVine Villa, the place is beautiful, the location is beautiful and the house has all the amenities you need. The host was very responsive and friendly and the owner was super kind to bring us wine, raki, fruits and anything we needed. We had a little problem with the air conditioner and the problem was solved within 10 minutes. So to sum up, wonderful!

Very peaceful and with an authentic charm

Nothing

Tout était parfait. De la réservation à l accueil le propriétaire panajotis a tjrs été aux petits soins s avec nous : il nous a réservé une navette de puis l aéroport tres pratique. très disponible pour nettoyer la piscine, changer les serviettes, nous accueillir avec des spécialités locales du vin du pain à l huile , des légumes, des gâteaux pendant le séjour, des fruits comme du raisin … l hospitalité crétoise est magique. Même si nous comprenions difficilement, une amitié sincère est née: Panajotis nous a réservé une dernière soirée locale au village d à côté : exceptionnelle avec ses chanteurs musiciens et bons petits plats. Une rencontre d exception ! Les lieux sont à l image du proprio : on est en crête on se dépayse on redécouvre la vraie vie à un rythme doux et paisible et on partage des vrais moments d amitié entre nous. La voisine Elisabeth a pu nous traduire et expliquer toute une matinée autour d un petit dej crétois la vie en crête au village d a côté. Le village est accessible à 10 min à pieds avec 3 très bons restaus typiques locaux et quelques boutiques et alimentation. Bien sûr il faut une voiture pour circuler. Si vous en avez la possibilite vous êtes obligés de réserver cet endroit hors du temps magique ici.

L'extrême gentillesse des propriétaires, la beauté des lieux, la décoration très bien choisie, le calme des alentours et la proximité de toute commodité

The list of things I didn't like is so long that I'll need both text boxes to fit it all. After informing the property of our arrival time and arriving punctually, we found a locked gate and no one nearby. The manager said the owner would return in 5 minutes – we waited nearly two hours in 35°C heat. Eventually, she sent us the code to a key box by the door. The keys had been there all along, yet we were left waiting in the sun for no reason. The villa was advertised as an exclusive rental with a private pool. In reality, it consisted of two houses, and one was already occupied. The “private” pool was shared with the other guests. When I expressed concern, I was told I was “looking for problems.” After contacting Booking.com about a refund, the manager refused to confirm anything and accused me of trying to profit from the situation. I only wanted the refund for a property that did not match the description. Within hours of arrival, I felt unwelcome, disrespected, and falsely accused. The pool was not private, and the property description was later edited to fix this lie – now claiming the pool is “indoor,” which it is not. Inside the house it was dirty, I have informed manager about that- she said she will send a maid over immediately. Maid meant elderly owner, immediately meant next day, and cleaned was pool, not apartment instead. When I mentioned writing a review, she said "Giving me hints about a bad review is not the way to go” The next day, my booking was marked as a no-show by the manager, and the villa was relisted. Booking.com confirmed I had been reported as absent – while I was literally inside the property, sending them photos as proof. Manager claimed i was absent even 30 minutes after in-person talk in the property. I asked to speak to the owner, and although I made it clear I didn’t want to see the manager again, she showed up and took over the conversation. She mocked everything I said and laughed in front of my family and the owner...

...She only repeated: “Are you satisfied with the refund?” – which wasn’t a refund, but a no-show trick to block my ability to post a review. Let me be clear: this was not a goodwill gesture. If compensation had been the goal, the money could have been refunded in many other ways – for many other reasons – but only a “no-show” cancellation prevents a review from being left. It was a deliberate attempt to silence a guest. The manager cancels reservations after arrival if she suspects a negative review, which prevents guests from leaving feedback. I had to fight just for the right to write this review. This ruined our holiday. We felt anxious and disrespected. We didn’t know if we’d be let back in after going out or if our belongings would be safe. The apartment had a serious insect problem – not just mosquitoes, but caterpillars, larvae, woodlice, and cockroach-like bugs chased by spiders. The bathroom was full of tiny black flies – 15–20 of them every time we tried to shower. Within 24 hours of arrival, here is the summary: • I was treated most disrespectfully waiting outside a locked gate even though the keys were within reach. • I was accused of trying to scam a refund, just for asking for the money I had paid back. • I was effectively turned into an illegal guest, with my booking canceled while I was still in the villa. • I was publicly ridiculed by the manager in front of my family and the owner. I am a sailor by profession, traveling the world and meeting hundreds of people from different cultures. Never in my life have I met someone as arrogant and shameless as this manager. Even she seemed aware of her behavior, openly admitting: “I know nobody likes me, and I’m generally a negative person.” Just to made it clear as I can see now answer for my opinion: I am fluent in English, German, Polish, I can also communicate in Russian and Spanish. And if I will really not be there, I wouldn't be able to put down this opinion.

Origineel grieks huis (en dus natuurlijk koel), de eigenaars en hun liaison, airco waar die nodig is, heerlijk buitenplaats met zwembad.

De bedden waren naar onze smaak wat hard maar dat is heel persoonlijk en dus geen kritiek.
