Villa Galateia

We could not be more surprised when we entered this place. Lovely pergola's for an inside/outside feeling. Lots of different sitting areas and beautiful nestled between the vineyards. Manolis and his wife were so kind and were overloading us with produce from the area or from their own garden 🥰 They were very approachable for all kind of questions. We went twice for dinner in Dhafnes at a taverna called λουλουδη home cooked food and a very nice owner. Take the goat with the pasta!

If you like minimalistic places this is not for you 😉

The villa was very clean and well renovated, and the pool was clean and warm! The hosts left us some food in the fridge and fresh bread and biscuits on the counter, and numbers for restaurants nearby. They were really nice and helped us get a car rental (definitely a necessity). The even gave us a nice gift on the way out.

The wifi was a little spotty and the network coverage in the area is poor.

Exceptional hospitality! The house was very clean.

Everything was very good . The host provided surprise of some vegetable and fruit from their own garden ,and some hand made bread .they are super friendly and helpful for any problems . They have very equipped villa and some cute cats .the swimming pool was clean , the barbecue was very nice as well , I will definitely recommend to anyone with children .thanks to the host .

The villa was spotlessly clean, very well equipped and there were lovely food gifts. The outside areas were delightful and varied and the pool area was excellent. Unfortunately the weather didn’t let us use the pool. Communication with the host was excellent and we were met by her parents who were charming.

The location wasn’t ideal, however it was well placed for visiting Knossos and the surrounding mountain villages.

Quiet and peaceful place with no neighbours nearby. All kitchen and bathroom accessories are available. Washing mashine together with washing detergents also on site. Cool swimming pool (not so deep but enough for relaxing) and a barbecue area. The hosts suprised us with a gift - fresh grapes, bread, honey and cookies! We really recommend this house as a good base for trips around the island and for those who would like to have a bit od rest without all these noisy city sounds.

Amazing place-clean, tidy, quiet, got own spot on swimming pool with sun loungers.This is without doubt the best accommodation we've stayed in.The owners couldn't be more helpful. Thank you for a wonderful holiday! Home away from home, we left our heart in this place
