Wonderful stay at a beautiful home!

We could not have asked for a more beautiful view to wake up to and to watch sunsets every night. Everything was as advertised, except the VRBO site lists a hot tub, however the villa website does not. The ping pong table was broken. The pool was fabulous, the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped, and the owner stocked it with lots of goodies. The staff cleaned during our stay, and the if we had any issues, they took care of them immediately! Our coffee it was broken and they bought a replacement very fast. A wonderful time. 5 stars!!!! Thank you so much!

Glorious views, fabulous location

Views to die for, great location with lots of tavernas within 6 minutes walk in either direction, some being quite delightful. Great comms via Vrbo with owners, extremely helpful regarding lateness of check in. Highly recommended.

Toller Aufenthalt

Wir haben den Urlaub sehr genossen. Es hat alles wunderbar geklappt. Die Wohnung ist sehr schön, groß und sauber. Den Strand kann man unproblematisch zu Fuß erreichen. In der Nähe gibt es viele Tavernen, wo man abends gut essen kann.

Perfect Plaka

Villa was amazing with incredible views and a great pool. The village tavernas were really friendly and welcoming with lovely food and great atmosphere in the square. The beach and restaurants in Almyrida were fabulous. We had a great week and did not want to leave John

Beautiful villa with amazing views

I was looking for a villa with great location, able to walk to tavernas, shops and beach , sea view and pool and this ticked all the boxes. It is a short walk to the beach where you can find tavernas, bakery and a lovely beach, you can also walk 5 mins up the hill to Plaka where there are a couple of small supermarkets and restaurants( - Elpis restaurant had a lovely friendly atmosphere in the evening) . Almyrida was small but friendly and had a small selection of shops and tavernas but wasn’t lively if that’s what you are looking for. - would definitely recommend going to Chania one day for a look around the old town. The villa was lovely and could have just sat on the balcony all day as the view was so good. The layout was perfect giving everyone privacy with a good communal area for eating and having sundowners as the sunset every evening was amazing. Had good communication with Alexis who answered queries before we came and recommended Almyrida taxis to meet us at the airport. We arrived late and there was a good selection of essential food waiting for us including fruit, milk, bread and wine which was well received. It was very clean and had everything you need. Will definitely return.
