Villa Origan stay

The villa was lovely, in a beautiful area and with a stunning view from altitude of the Aegean Sea and nearby Kastellos - a view also shared from the pool. Gaby was extremely helpful and had some excellent suggestions on local beaches, restaurants and attractions. We really enjoyed our holiday, thank you!

The villa and the pool were both lovely. The view was the best of any villa we have stayed at (and there been quite a few). Gabby was very nice and very helpful. Taverna Maria was marvellous. We were there most nights. Beaches and shops all just a short drive.

Peaceful

We had an amazing holiday in the villa, just like last year. The location is perfect, on top of the hill, with breathtaking views, away from the hustle and bustle, the complete opposite of our London life. The short ride to the beach is magical. The villa is modern, stylish, very well equipped and very homely. We can’t wait to go back again.

Best view ever

The villa was beautiful and well designed and furnished, the kitchen was well equipped. As there is no supermarket within walking distance it was great that there was some basic things already available (e.g. Salt, pepper,water, olive oil, honey, fruit).The mountain and sea view was amazing

Quite designerish modern style house set in to the hillside overlooking olive groves populated by sheep. Perfectly located for views of the coast and a hill breeze. Well equipped kitchen and a comfortable living room with a satellite TV. Comfortable beds. Wonderfully quiet setting with extraordinary amounts of birdsong. Pool is a great benefit - a plunge pool at a good temperature. Immaculately clean and noticeably good insulation and mosquito netting for all the windows and the doors to poolside.Easy access to the main roads and shops so long as you have a car and are happy to drive on Cretan country roads.

Best 10 days in a while

We spent 10 wonderful days at this beautiful villa in this very calm and decelerating area! We enjoyed every single minute with a stunning view of the mountains, the sea or a liberating cannonball into the refreshing pool right outside the perfectly air-conditioned living room. We‘ll be back for sure – we cannot wait to get us on our way again.

Peaceful Tranquil Retreat in Crete

A lovely villa in a peaceful tranquil retreat. Wonderful views of the coast and surrounding hills. Watch the Eagles soaring above. Very peaceful you can listen to the wildlife around you. The nearest Taverna is just over a kilometer away but you are unlikely to encounter a car walking there. Beautiful lake nearby to see the fresh water turtles.

The entire experience from start to end was superb, the villa was beautiful and perfectly setup! The views took our breath away, it was like spending two weeks in paradise. Gaby was simply perfect, polite, friendly and super helpful! The only complaint is we had to come home! This is hands down the best villa we’ve ever stayed in and can’t rate it highly enough!

Wunderschöner Urlaub in einem tollen Ferienhaus!Wir haben uns in diesem Ferienhaus rundum wohlgefühlt. Die Unterkunft war sauber und bestens ausgestattet. Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt, und wir konnten unseren Urlaub in vollen Zügen genießen. Nur der Pool war leider zu kalt.Auch die Lage war sehr schön und ideal, um sich zu erholen und die Umgebung zu erkunden. Der Kontakt mit der Gastgeberin war freundlich und unkompliziert.Wir kommen gerne wieder und können das Ferienhaus auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen! Vielen Dank für die schöne Zeit.

Fremragende beliggenhed i meget rolige og smukke omgivelser med en enestående udsigt - og samtidig ikke alt for langt fra indkøbsmuligheder og byer mm. Og huset er i sig selv smukt, velholdt og bekvemt - og Gaby er en både meget venlig og hjælpsom vært. Vi vender helt sikkert tilbage.

Geweldig uitzicht, villa van alle gemakken voorzien, regelmatig schone handdoeken en beddengoed. Goede communicatie met Gaby. Leuk welkomst pakket, met Griekse specialiteiten. Pool was wat fris, mede door de harde wind denk ik. Kussens op de bedden zijn wat uitgezakt/ slap. Prima verblijf gehad!Leuk dat elke dag de schapen voorbij kwamen…

Äußerst netter und sympathischer Kontakt mit dem Vermieter und Gabi vor Ort. Das Haus war sehr schön gelegen mit einer ganz tollen Aussicht aufs Meer. Viel Natur, rundherum viele Tiere, absolute Ruhe enorm hoher Erholungsfaktor. Die Bilder haben genau das versprochen, was wir vor Ort vorgefunden haben. Für Ruhesuchende eine absolute Empfehlung. Worüber wir uns sehr gefreut haben, war das Gastgebergeschenk mit Olivenöl, Oliven, getrockneten Kräutern, kretischem Honig, Kaffee sowie einer Obstschale mit verschiedenen frischen Früchten. Wir haben uns rundherum wohlgefühlt und können eins sagen, dass war nicht der letzte Urlaub in diesem Häuschen. Wenn wir mehr als zehn Punkte vergeben dürften, würden wir das definitiv tun. Zu erwähnen sind die komfortablen Betten. Man schläft wirklich sehr gut darin. Das Haus ist super gelegen. Auch die Südküste ist innerhalb von 1 Stunde gut erreichbar.

Wild Origan bietet absolute Ruhe und einen beeindruckenden Blick über die Ebene und das Meer!Die Ausstattung ist sehr gut. Die Sonne stand schön sehr tief, so dass der kleine Aussenbereich meist im Schatten lagen. Die Wärme und Sonne haben wir an dem herrlichen Sandstrand unten im Ort gefunden.Wirklich herauszuheben ist die Kommunikation mit Gaby! Sie war bei Fragen immer unterstütztend zur Seite. Ihre Herzlichkeit bleibt uns ins sehr guter Erinnerung.Vielen Dank Villa Wild Origan!

Communicatie verliep prima. Heldere afspraken gemaakt die werden nagekomen. Huis is precies zoals op foto’s is afgebeeld. Keuken volledig ingericht, alles wat je nodig hebt is aanwezig. Voorzieningen prima, internet verbinding wisselt veel in snelheid, maar daar kan het huis waarschijnlijk weinig aan doen. Auto parkeer je niet op eigen terrein maar op de weg, die gelukkig erg rustig is. Huis is schoon, airco’s doen het goed. Bedden prima. Erg leuk zijn de schapen die elke dag voor het huis langs komen onderweg naar hun nachtverblijf. Supermarkten op 10min rijden, locatie zelf heerlijk rustig. Kortom: prima verblijf gehad, zeker een aanrader.

Dear Hugo Thank you very much for your review. We are very happy that you were able to enjoy the villa and its surroundings. Indeed, it is not easy to take photos as pretty as the superb landscape. The only road, which leads to Patima, ends at Patima😊. So there is practically no traffic and we can park the car right in front of the house without any risk.
