Guest Reviews
- Alek (8/5): -
- Julian (10/5): Fantastycznie i relaksująco - piękna okolica, bardzo klimatyczne miejsce, przepiękny widok stromy podjazd
- Michail (9/5): -
- Vlad (10/5): -
- Patryk (10/5): -
- Tereza (10/5): - Уютные и стильные апартаменты с отличным ремонтом и функциональной кухней. Всё очень чисто и продумано. Двухэтажная планировка, ванна прямо в спальне — выглядит невероятно стильно! А джакузи с потрясающим видом — просто восторг. Мы проводили там много времени и днём, и ночью. Если вернёмся на Крит, однозначно выберем эти апартаменты снова. Всем искренне рекомендую!
- Patrick (10/5): Exceptionnel - La tranquillité et l’amabilité de l’entourage les habitants du village de belles personnes La baignoire avec le SPA car le débit d’eau est très faible
- Tatiana (9/5): -
- Dániel Marcell (10/5): very authentic experience, apartment is nice and cosy -
- Stamatina (10/5): Exceptional -
- Shaharul (4/5): Pretty on the surface but... - The bedroom is comfortable and airy. Balcony view is very nice and parking is convenient. The uphill driveway is difficult to climb in the car and I expect next to impossible when wet. When you roll up to the villa everything appears to be as advertised. Unfortunately the moment you open the door you are hit by the smell of must and damp and the smell of air fresheners trying to mask it.
They definitely have an issue with rising damp as can be seen on the wall leading to the bathroom.
The water pressure at the tub and handheld shower is extremely low to the point that it is almost unusable. There is also a leak from the tub that makes the floor constantly damp with puddles.
The floor monstera motif is perhaps trying to keep in theme with the decorative plastic plants but is smooth and becomes a skating rink when wet and ill suited to a bathroom floor and stairs that lead down to the kitchen. The supplied soap and shampoo are in unlabelled bottles that have been refilled so many times they are misshapen and dented.
The kitchen is by far the worst equipped I have come across with no utensils save for basic cutlery, 1 wine glass and 1 cup for tea. The cabinets are also damaged from damp. We planned then to use the barbecue that was outside but alas there was no charcoal supplied and no bbq utensils anyway. There was a small pile of sticks for firewood but we decided it would be better used for the fireplace to try and chase away the damp.
Unfortunately there were no matches or lighter supplied and we had to get one from the market in town.
Having lit the fire there are no fireplace tools to use but we did what we could. We opened the flue but the smoke still filled the living room really quickly so perhaps the chimney needs cleaning. As there were no tools we just had to open the door and windows and wait for the fire to die out which didn't take long since they only supplied 2 small logs and a bunch of sticks to use.
We ended up buying some firewood from the locals up the lane but didn't use it as it was just too smoky.
The TVs installed are not smart TVs and only have terrestrial channels. The one in the bedroom doesn't show anything.
- Adamo (9/5): Welcomed by the people of Krousonas for an immersive experience in the Cretan countryside. - The village of Krousonas is charming. We had the luck to visit during a local festival and it was the highlight of our trip. It is in a perfect location - away from busy Iraklio, with a beautiful road leading up to the village (<20min). The property is somewhat secluded, near the top of the village. Feels secure, with a large door/wall providing an entrance. The bedroom is large, with plenty windows, and a very nice balcony allowing you to see the village, Iraklio and the ocean from far. The host is responsive. The house layout involves climbing stairs (not ideal for disabled/people with difficulty on stairs) - the washroom upstairs by the bedroom has only a toilet and sink, while downstairs is the bath.
- Owain (8/5): Very relaxing! - Beautiful property in a lovely mountainous area. Lots of room and very nice veranda. Close to several nice bakeries as well, locals were really lovely even though it was winding down to the end of season. Could have done with more kitchen equipment for cooking, such as a knife. Otherwise lovely. Just as a FYI, a car is needed in this area as although close to Heraklion it is so in driving distance and public transport to this particular location is limited
- Cosmin (8/5): Very good - Very spacious and clean. We had a dehumidifier that helped a lot with comfort and drying clothes on windy weather. Air conditioner was working properly as well. We didn't have an all purpose knife to cut vegetables, fruits, etc. We had to buy supplies like paper towels and garbage bags ourselves.
We didn't have clothes pins to secure our laundry to the rack (it was very windy and we could have used some pins - the other studio from Athali Villa had them).
One other thing that would have helped us - a wardrobe. There was a built in shelf in the wall to store clothes, but it had insufficient space and would collect a lot of dust.
- Michał (9/5): Superb - Apartament was really nice overall. The pillows:) Please get some different ones. We are not a posh kind of people but both couldn't sleep a single night without neck pain waking us up and we had to use pillows from the sofa downstairs.
- Caterina (10/5): amazing place - wonderful house
- Kalin (10/5): Dream holiday - Amazing great-designed stone villa with beautiful view above the Iraklio area. The atmosphere is mix of tradition, modern style and comfortable and makes your stay unforgettable. The village is full of activity. Nothing
- Adrian (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice, renovated house in calm village. Owner is very friendly and helpful.
- Panjotis (10/5): The view is amazing!! - The Villa is a beautifully renovated old stone building with modern and unique interior design. It's located in a gorgeous small town.
There's everything you need from small cafés, great tavernas and supermarkets. The host Nikos was incredibly helpful and reliable.
Thank you for everything!
