Great Villas but not ideal for us

The villas were clean, very spacious & had everything you needed. The pool & all the pool side extras were amazing. The location is not isolated but also not centrally located. The owner was really helpful & sent us lots of useful information. The villas are walking distance from the beaches & shops, but it’s hard walking on the road side with the kids! Additionally, the villas are on a slope so going up especially in the heat with shopping was difficult. I would recommend a car as there are no local taxis or Uber. All in all the villas were amazing, location was okay & the owner was great. There were a couple of things that didn’t make this the best family holiday for us. This was 2 separate unconnected villas. Since we were 1 adult, 1 older teenager & 2 under 12 we had to spilt ourselves between the 2 villas so I was in the basement & my older son was in the top apartment with his younger brother. The WiFi in the basement villa was awful so we could not communicate remotely which added to my anxiety & worry at nights. Logically breakfast & making sure the doors were ajar so no one got locked out required more planning than necessary on a holiday. Basically when I booked the villa it was not obvious that this was 2 completely separate, unconnected villas. I had searched for a 4 bedroom villa & this came up. I feel that the fact these are 2 separate unconnected villas should have been emphasized in the description as we would not have booked it if we knew.

Hi Funmi and thank you for taking the time to write a review. I'm glad you liked the pool and enjoyed tour stay. Thank you for the feedback as well. I'd like to note that the 2 individual apartments are actually mentioned in the description. We also recommend you to hire a car, however many guests do not and had no problem walking to the nearest amenities. There are also local taxis. I just wish you would have mentioned all your concerns during your stay to help you as much as possible. Best, Cretevillas4u team.

Sehr schönes Haus mit super Aussicht.

Wir waren rundum zufrieden. Das Haus ist so wie beschrieben in einer traumhaften Umgebung.Stefanos hat sich um alles gekümmert, er ist ein sehr netter und kompetenter Vermieter. Uns hat es außer an mehr Urlaub an sonst nichts gefehlt.Einmal pro Woche kommt ein Reinigungsservice und zweimal pro Woche wird der Pool gereinigt.Ein rundum gelungener Urlaub in ruhiger Umgebung.Vielen Dank Stefanos, es war sehr schön.

Moderne Unterkunft mit viel Platz

Der Kontakt zu Stefanos war sehr gut und sympathisch,er hätte auf Wunsch noch viel mehr für uns getan. Das moderne Ferienhaus könnte in der Küche noch etwas besser bestückt werden. Die Betten sind sehr bequem und es gibt viel Platz. Leider ist die Kellerwohnung etwas dunkel, dafür liegt der obere Bereich des Hauses sehr schön und die verschiedenen Terrassen bieten viel Platz .

About the host

Hosted by Manos Dafermos

Host profile image
Hello there,
I am Manos, owner and manager of CreteVillas4U. I have been in the hospitality sector long before CreteVillas4U, however. I was actually born, grew up, and spent most of my life in a hotel owned by my family. So, I guess it came as no surprise when I expressed my wish to study in Rhodes’ Tourism School and, later on, when I decided to start my own business in the sector.
One thing I learned growing up in a family-run hotel is that hospitality is more than hotel management, logistics and operations. It is a culture, passing down from one generation to the next. You can study to be a hotel manager but you cannot study to be hospitable.
I apply this philosophy in my business as well. The rule is simple: the guests of the villas I manage are my guests. As an active traveller, I expect nothing less myself.
The fourth generation of Dafermos hoteliers has already been born. I know now that my two beautiful children will probably follow my steps, like I did before them. There is a small difference though: they are smarter, more educated, better (big smile).

CreteVillas4u Head Offices are located in Rethymnon , Crete, Lasithiou 1 Str. under the approval of the Greek Tourism Organization with License number: 1041E70000184301

All the best,
Manos Dafermos
