About this property

Charming Villa Maria

Charming Villa in rural village
Set amongst rolling hills and vineyards
Carefully tended garden with barbecue and bread oven
Authentic Crete at its best
Set on a hill in a rural village setting, provides a peaceful starting point for exploring the island – or simply relaxing, with lovely views across the patchwork of fields, rolling hills and vineyards below, and just one other house alongside.

A carefully tended garden, flower-shaded stone terrace, barbecue and even a bread-oven create a homely space, made for relaxing days by the pool and evenings al fresco, with the convenience of shops and tavernas just a ten-minute drive away.

We enjoyed at wonderful time at Villa Maria thanks to the hospitality of George/ Maria (thank you once more for everything, especially your kindness and being always available in case of need!).The house was great (very clean and very well equiped with everything you need), the view was amazing and the garden/ pool a nice place to rest/ play for the kids.Highly recommended and happy to come back.
