Guest Reviews

• Harris (10/5): The BEST host and a beautiful villa! - Villa Ermis is beautiful. Quiet, secluded and lots of space. The pool, playground, table tennis etc are fab. The host George is so nice and welcoming and caring. We arrived late at night and George went shopping and bought us all we needed for breakfast and more. We felt very looked after. When we left he brought gifts for the children to remember Crete. He is a book binder and he made little note books for the kids. Meeting George was a wonderful experience and Crete and the villa were lovely too! A few electrical problems dealt with very quickly by the wonderful host George.

• KEITH (10/5): Villa Ermis is an enchanting hidden gem which everything required for a relaxing stay. - The property had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The quality of everything in the property was good and was furnished very nicely. The beds were very comfortable. George had left us lots of supplies and lovely treats to get us started which we really appreciated. We used the bbq at the property a few times when we didn’t feel like going out to eat (there’s a local taverna and a short drive to Rethymno where there are so many lovely restaurants to chose from). Much of our time was spent relaxing at the pool, reading a book or playing chess in the shaded areas or enjoying breakfast on the balcony. The views were breathtaking - particularly from the rooftop terrace. The air conditioning worked well and the house was lovely and cool due to being built from stone - despite the scorching temperatures outside. Our sons loved swimming in the pool, playing football in the late afternoon and cycling around the gardens (which were more like a small park!). We would all definitely love to return to Villa Ermis one day. There really want anything. George advised us to use bottled water for drinking and warned us that the water delivery hadn’t arrived when expected and that we should be careful with water usage meanwhile. To be honest, it didn’t affect anything and we would have been none the wiser. The water delivery arrived a day later so no problems at all.
• Jeroen (10/5): In 1 woord geweldig, beste verblijf van de afgelopen 10 jaar - Super mooi huis met alles wat je maar kunt wensen: overal airco’s, goede bedden, mooie locatie, veel privacy, alle keukenapparatuur. Daarnaast mooie uitvalsbasis, vlakbij Rethymno wat het leukste stadje van Kreta is. En last but not least de geweldige eigenaar Georgios die zorgt voor een warm welkom, een gevulde koelkast en een hoop goede tips heeft qua restaurants en tripjes. Helemaal top! Ook na diep nadenken kunnen wij geen enkel minpunt benoemen.

• Hristina (10/5): We truly enjoyed our stay. At any moment, we could reach out to the host with any question, and he would help us right a -
• Valeriy (10/5): George, thank you and your family for a beautiful family house you built. - We like absolutely everything we had. Location is in a small village, very quiet, and wonderful birds songs from morning till evening. The house is equipped with all necessary what you need. Barbecue place is well arranged. Charcoal and fire starters are there. Wine, soft drinks are in the fridge. Swimming pool is clean and ready for use. Wonderful garden with the equipment for children’s play. Upper terrace is a great place for a family to have morning coffee with a beautiful view around. Balconies are also awesome, especially very early morning, when sun is rising. 15 min drive to the beach, and even less time to get to a grocery stores. We had a couple of cold rainy days.
• Robert (10/5): Exceptional -
• Michał (10/5): It was excellent - It was excellent I liked everything
• Emma (10/5): What a pleasant memory we made at this great villa. - The property is clean, very big with 3 bedrooms, 2 double and one with 2 single beds. As a family of four, it felt like a mansion to us. High ceilings, 2 bathrooms. The pool was great and Georgios came to maintain/clean it every other day. The balcony was great to enjoy afternoon tea. The town Rethymno was 13 minutes drive and very pretty. You have to have a car though since it is quite remote. We went to this sunset beach cafe and the food there was amazing, thanks to Georgio’s advice. The property is gorgeous. I have nothing that I didnt like.
• Peleg (10/5): Exceptional -
• Michael (10/5): Truly spectacular end to our trip! The villa was gorgeous, location great, and the host welcoming! - Spectacular! We were really blown away by the quality and the overall atmosphere of the villa. It was the last stop on our Greece vacation, and we didn't want to leave. It easily exceeded our expectation, awesome!!!! Nothing. It really was perfect.
• Tim (10/5): Exceptional -
• Omrit (10/5): Exceptional - Giorgio is the perfect host. We arrived at the villa very late at night and he was waiting to welcome us with a local Greek meal. The villa is equipped with all necessary kitchen utensils, basic ingredients such as salt, oil, coffee, tea, sugar, mineral water, beers, spices and more. Every morning Giorgio was interested in our daily plan and depending on the area we chose to travel he added more recommendations. His recommendations are great. We stayed in the villa for 8 nights, the villa is large and very well maintained with a pool and wonderful natural areas. On the morning of the trip back home, Giorgio came to say goodbye to us and we even received farewell gifts. Thank you Giorgio, you are a friend for life.
• Jocelyne (9/5): Perfect comfortable getaway in a quiet hillside village. - An excellent host who always responded quickly. Absolutely no problems with this fantastic house which is set in a very peaceful location. It has everything you need, big double bedrooms, very comfortable beds and good facilities indoors and out if you want to cook for yourselves. Large cool communal spaces with lots of seating and chilling areas in the large garden, and stunning views from the rooftop.
• Petr (10/5): Exceptional - The place is absolutely amazing, located in secluded place in a small village upon a hill. We had a complete privacy there. The villa is very well equiped and we have found everything we needed. The owner is very friendly guy who went the distance to make our stay really enjoyable. We can only recommend the place! I can't really think of anything we wouldn't enjoy there.
