Nothing

Der perfekte Aufenthalt für eine Woche Ruhe und Entspannung. Wir wurden herzlich von George empfangen. Der Kühlschrank war gut gefüllt und es gab einen Snack zum Empfang. Die Villa ist umgeben von Olivenbäumen und man hat sogar einen Blick aufs Meer. Es gibt viele Plätze zum Sitzen und entspannen. Besonders schön ist es abends unter dem Olivenbaum mit Blick auf den beleuchteten Pool. Empfehlen können wir einen Besuch um Panorama Café, nur ein paar Minuten mit dem Auto von der Villa entfernt. Einkaufen kann man sehr gut in Ierapetra. Im Ort gibt es einen kleinen Supermarkt. Zum Abschluss gab es noch ein selbstgekochtes Essen von Georges Mutter. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und kommen bestimmt wieder.

Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt! Besonders der Aussenbereich war außergewöhnlich und der Gastgeber äußerst herzlich und hilfsbereit.

We had an amazing week at this beautiful, stylish villa. George was the most welcoming, friendly and generous host we have ever experienced on a villa holiday. He kept in touch with us regularly and nothing was too much trouble for him. A big thank you to George’s mother who cooked a delicious Cretan lunch for us. The location of the villa is stunning, peaceful and private with 360° views of the mountains and sea. The grounds and gardens are huge and well maintained. The immaculately clean pool is a good size and depth for swimming lengths. The villa is well sign-posted, easy to find and close to the local village. We would highly recommend this holiday villa.

Here is a long list of everything, not in any order: - Host is super responsive and a lovely person! He provided us with numerous tips for restaurants and activities on the area. - Villa really is as good as it looks in the pictures, if not even better. Very clean and tidy. - There is a lot of space inside and outside for at least five persons. - Superb views on every direction from the terrace. - Kavousi village is close enough to walk to. Village has small grocery store, couple restaurants and couple bakeries/cafes. - Nice small and local beach close by with a cozy restaurant. - Overall, everything worked smoothly before and during our trip and the host was extremely helpful with every question that we had. We highly recommend staying here for a relaxing vacation in Crete. :)

- Did not really bother us, but you need a car to move around as the villa is located in a very peaceful area with nearest services within 15min walk

Villa's host - George - is an excellent person, his kindness and hospitality is on the most upper level! Villa is a dream house with full of facilities , in a fantastic place , with a breathtaking view - swimming in the colorful pool, drinking your wine and relaxing! We wish to be able to stay there forever! For sure we will visit George and his villa at first opportunity in the future.

Nothing! We’ll be back again

We had a very nice holiday in this great villa. Quiet and surrounded by nature, we were able to enjoy our holiday. The host George was always available if we needed anything or a tip from a local. When we arrived late in the evening on the day of our arrival, his mother had already cooked dinner for us. It was very tasty. George always answered promptly and really went out of his way to make sure we had a great holiday. There was also the possibility to book a massage. A professional masseuse gave us a massage at the villa by the pool. It was great. We also went on a boat trip and explored the beautiful island from the water. Again, George has good contacts to make this possible. We will definitely come back to this great villa and thank George again for his hospitality.
