Had a lovely time at this villa. The villa was well equipped and the welcome pack was one of the best we’ve had. Staff/ Fiona came to clean twice a week. There is nowhere to hang towels/ clothes in the first floor bathroom which could be an issue if there are several people using it. Shade was limited by the pool as no parasol and there was no table tennis table ( as in listing). None of this was a major issue for us and would not stop us staying here again.

Great place for family and friends

Lovely villa, spacious and clean. Great for large groups, able to give teens their own space. Quiet and not overlooked. First time renting a villa, would definitely do it again.

Crete family trip

We had a wonderful time in Crete. Came to visit our son who is stationed there with the US Navy. The villa was beautiful and just as it looked in the pictures. The owners were helpful and take good care of the property. We loved it.

Beautiful View!

Our family and friends enjoyed the beautiful view and pool. Frankie and the housekeepers are super helpful, attentive and friendly. Be prepared for the mosquitos as they are relentless. We would recommend this villa if you are looking for a place that is quiet (you may hear some goats and sheep), close to a few beaches, and has a spectacular view!

Lovely stay would recommend

Had a lovely stay, the house was plenty big enough for our party of 8. You definitely need a car to get around. Almyrida has a really lovely beach with plenty of bars and restaurants for our 2 week stay. Great atmosphere there. Also visited Plaka for a couple of meals and Gavalochori and would highly recommend both. Only criticism is the tree could do with trimming as when sitting on balcony we couldn’t see the amazing view of the sea (see last photo). Other than that we had a great time and would definitely recommend to other people thinking of visiting this part of Crete.

Hi Joanna, Thank you very much for your kind review of Villa Prinolithos. It was a pleasure to meet you and to accommodate your and your lovely family and friends. We were between gardeners at the time of your stay but we now have a fantastic guy who works at some of the other villas that we handle so the view of the sea is now unobstructed by the greenery. The owners intend to completely renovate/re-do all of the bathrooms in the villa in the winter of 2025/26, as well as re-tiling the pool and adding steps into it, and possibly enlarging the main bedroom and adding an en-suite bathroom. Hopefully you will return to see all the amazing updates at some point in the future. Best wishes, Frankie

Beautiful villa in the mountains - you can't do it without a car, but if you love a dreamlike view and want to enjoy peace and quiet, this is absolutely the right place. Wonderful. Thank you.

Great stay at Villa Prinolithos, amazing view

We spent one great week with friends and kids in Villa Prinolithos. Very positive points : - Communication fluid with the landlord / manager of the house - good location - house is well equiped - nice outside with big swimming pool - The view is amazing - Rooms with A/C, towels and clean Could be improved (but not a big constraint): - bigger trash can in the kitchen - bathrooms not very modern (shower) - Tennis table (+ balls & raquettes) a bit old Globally I strongly recommend this house which exactly responded to what we expected. Thanks for this stay, we really enjoyed it.

Practically perfect in every way

Wonderful stay. The villa is in the most beautiful location: stunning view of the hill and the bay. Big skies, azure sea on the horizon as you look past the clean infinity pool. The style of the house is traditional with lots of lovely spots to sit out. Sleeps 8-10 comfortably. Very well provided with all mod cons including excellent wifi. The charming hosts left a welcome of key ingredients and cleaners, pool guy (Steve) and handymen (Christos and Menalaos) visit regularly to check all in tip top shape. 5*+

Lovely Villa

Wonderful Villa with a view you could never get tired of. Great setting/ grounds and pool. Villa was very clean and tidy- house keeping part way through the week was a bonus to replace linen and towels. Down side was that there wasn’t much in the kitchen cupboards such as oil, herbs, vinegar etc but there was a couple of dishwasher tabs, two washing machine tabs, some milk, sachets of jam, sugar, pepper and salt oh and a bottle of wine which was great. Take your own inflatables as there are none there (although we did leave our doughnut!) Handy for Chania airport and day trips out. Overall a wonderful Villa that you can enjoy with family and friends.

Beautiful home in beautiful settings

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in the Villa Prinolithos. Frankie was super responsive, a great host, very helpful with information prior to our arrival, and very knowledgeable about anything we had questions about once we arrived. The location was a great hub for the road trips and excursion we had planned. The house and the pool are super clean, and the home is well tended to. We enjoyed the comfort and quality of the beds and the bedding. The mattresses were firm, which suited us perfectly. We slept so well! The views are gorgeous, night and day. And the caretakers were also very friendly. While the steps were manageable, my elderly parents (both 80) appreciated the ground level bedroom. We would definitely recommend the house. Thank you, Frankie, we all had a great time! We would love to work with you again when we return to Crete! Ευχαριστώ!

Lovely villa but needs some issues resolved

Beautiful villa but a few issues. Downstairs accommodation and pool area had awful smell of drains, leaking toilet, limited food storage and bin far too small for size of villa. Pool Bushes need to be cut back as the beautiful view is obscured. All outside areas are infested by ants. Table tennis table needs replacing and bikes were unfit for use as had rusted chains and flat tyres.

Beautiful villa in the hills with stunning views. Arrival was easy with an email with information on key collection and very good directions from the airport, which was great as this was our first time driving abroad. We arrived to a few small supplies, oranges, coffee pods, along with local wine, honey and olive oil. The villa is located a short drive from both Vamos and Gavalohori, which have small shops, butchers and Tavernas. I would say a car is essential here, I wouldn't have walked to either place as the roads are steep and narrow. The villas itself was lovely, and it looks just as it does in the pictures. The outside lighting is wonderful and creates a fabulous atmosphere on an evening. There is a huge balcony with two seating areas accessible from the kitchen/living room and the double bedroom. We spent most evenings out here or sat around the pool enjoying the stunning views from wherever we sat. The pool itself was great and plenty big enough for our family of 3 adults and 2 children, and numerous floaties! The area around the pool was equally impressive, with plenty of sunloungers, a canopy lounger, and also a table and chairs. There was a table tennis table and 2 bikes which could be used too Previous reviews have stated these were in poor condition however the bikes looked very new and of quality and the table tennis was fine, perhaps they have been replaced recently. Inside was lovely and traditional. Small rooms but perfectly adequate and very clean

Beautiful, Well-Situated Villa with Incredible View

We absolutely loved staying at Villa Prinolithos! We had a party of eight and, though the bedrooms are a bit small, the indoor living areas are comfortable and the outdoor spaces are spacious with nice furniture and dining areas and a breathtaking view of the Aegean. Weather permitting, you spend all your time outside on the two patios where there is a good-sized pool and a ping pong table for additional family fun. There is even a lemon tree on the grounds! Located only 30 minutes from Chania and 45-50 minutes from Rhethimno, the villa is in a good location. The nearby towns Gavalohori and Vamos are 5-10 minutes away and have markets and tavernas with great food and friendly folks (and lots of raki! IYKYK). We especially recommend Parasia Tavern for dinner and Nektar for breakfast. Inka Supermarket is small but has everything you need and very friendly owners (with more local raki!). Frankie, the property manager, is very responsive and helpful and Anna, the owner/hostess, is very sweet. She came over for a brief visit and brought us some fresh baked goods. There was also a nice supply of food in the kitchen when we arrived. Natassa and Yannis, who tidied up midweek, are also very friendly and sweet. Wi-Fi is not reliable and the road leading to the driveway is quite steep, but those are minor setbacks compared to all of the wonderful attributes of the villa. All in all, we highly recommend this property and, Lord willing, will be back again someday!

Location location location!!!

This villa has one of the best views out there truly stunning!!! We travelled as a geoup of 8, two families of 4. The villa catered for us really well as theres enoight room for the two familes to have their own space if they wish. The main villa consists of a 2 x twin rooms and 1 x king. Personally i think the king room should be on the upper floor (that room also has an onsuite), but thats maybe my personal opinion, others may disagree. You then have a main bathroom, front room and kitchen. Off the front room and kitchen youll find a massive verander, which is truly awesome for entertaining. It has two seperate seating areas and overlooks the most wonderful view. Its spectacular at night! The pool was large enought for the 8 of us, eith plenty of seating and loungers. Ive marked the cleanliness down by one star, as unfortunately they werent able to fully clean the villa midweek due to issues with the cleaning team. This wouldnt be the norm, just an unfortunate event whilst we visited. The villa was beautifully clean when we arrived. The property is located between two villages, vamos and Gavalohori. Gavalohori is very pretty, and a fairly steep 2km walk down the hill. Its got a shop and some resturants. Vamos is around the same distance, but an easier walk. It also contains shops and restaurants. I thoight vamos was the more useful, Gavalohori was more pretty. In both cases, unless youre fit and adventurous, id suggest driving or taxis. All in all stunning

Tolle Tavernen in Laufnähe

Wir haben uns dort wohl gefühlt. Die Kommunikation mit der Agentur war gut, Probleme wurden umgehend behoben. Wir sind mehrmals zu Fuß ins Dörfchen Gavalochori heruntergelaufen und haben die extrem schönen Tavernen sehr genossen. Es führt zwar lediglich die Straße ohne Fußweg ins Dorf hinunter, da die Straße aber wenig befahren ist, stellt dies kein großes Problem dar. Da sich die Unterkunft mitten in der Natur befindet und die Schlafzimmer im Erdgeschoss liegen, hätten wir uns Insektengitter an den Fenstern gewünscht. Insgesamt jedoch eine gute Unterkunft.
