Holiday rentals near Souda Bay War Cemetery

Amazing Villa immaculately clean with private roof top and views of the ocean. We were greeted by the owner who is so helpful with everything. Centrally located and surrounded by Tavernas serving great food. I'll be back!!

Superbly located in that it is not far from the old town and is very close to the beach as well as being in a quiet residential area. Has potential but needs a simple makeover. Bedroom are the only air conditioned area....cool air is also needed in the living areas when it is very hot. The living room is small with the oversized sofa taking up a large portion of the area. Get rid of the rusty shower caddy in one bathroom and replace the drainer on the sink. Reorganise the kitchen cupboards so that there is some order. Throw out the chipped plate....noone wants to eat off it. 2 wine glasses aren't enough for 4. Train the existing grape vine on the terrace to give shade for outdoor dining during summer. The old bulky brown furniture adds nothing to the appeal especially the wardrobe which probably never get used but just takes up space. Better mattress would also help as they were very hard and poor quality. Upgrade it, charge and more we would be back. And change the meet and greet person who was objectionable. I'm sure Grandma would not be impressed with the reception that we received.

This is a very charming, well appointed and well located cottage that offers relative privacy, with owners close by for any assistance required. Much of Western Crete is easily accessible without feeling too close to tourist traps. As animal lovers we enjoyed regular visits from the owner’s cats and dogs! Ideal for couples looking to set up a great base to explore this glorious island.
