Great communication from start to finish from the owners at the villa and they even got some shopping in as we arrived late at night. The Villa is immaculate and in a perfect location. Great for travelling around the island and close enough to bars and restaurants.We will definately be booking again next year as the villa is absolutely amazing.
We had the most amazing holiday.
The villa was absolutely stunning - it was equipped perfectly and everything worked perfectly.
Stamatis, the host, was most welcoming, attentive and always accessible and approachable.
We’ll be back.
Service war unkompliziert und schnell! Reinigung des Hauses und des Pools fanden zweimal die Woche statt und waren einwandfrei

Vielen Dank, Madlene!
Es freut mich sehr zu hören, dass Sie mit dem Service zufrieden waren und sowohl Haus als auch Pool zu Ihrer Zufriedenheit gepflegt wurden. Schön, dass Sie Ihren Aufenthalt genießen konnten – Sie sind jederzeit herzlich willkommen zurück!
Es war irre schön und genau wie in der Objektbeschreibung alles so vorgefunden. Und hat es an nichts gefehlt und Nikos hat sich rührend gekümmert wenn eine Frage im Raum stand. Wir kommen wieder

Wir haben einen tollen Aufenthalt in der Villa Stamatis gehabt. Wir haben den Ausblick, die tolle Terrasse und den Pool sehr genossen. Wir fanden die Lage ideal, um verschiedene Strände, Rethymnon, Chania, Heraklion und die Berge zu erkunden.
Der Kontakt zu Herrn Stamatis ist jederzeit herzlich und hilfreich gewesen.
Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

Sehr geehrter Herr Luigi,
Es war großartig, Sie in meinen Villen zu haben. Sie und Ihre Familie sind außergewöhnliche Gäste.
Ich würde mich freuen, Sie in Zukunft wiederzusehen.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Stamatis
alles bestens!
sehr nettes haus in ruhiger lage, ein bisserl ist die strasse zu hören, das ist aber vernachlässigbar!
für 2 perfekt, für 5 könnts a bisserl eng werden...
wenn geht kommen wir jedenfalls sehr gerne wieder!
Wir haben 1 Woche in der Villa Nikos verbracht und es war uns eine Freude, dort zu sein. Die Villa selbst ist sehr schön, die Zimmer sind sauber, man hat einen guten Pool für eine schnelle Erfrischung und man hat einen schönen Blick auf das Meer. Es sieht übrigens genauso aus wie auf den Bildern. Und der Besitzer ist wirklich freundlich. Wenn man bei etwas Hilfe braucht, kann man ihn jederzeit bedenkenlos fragen. Daher kann ich die Stavromenos Villas nur empfehlen. Wir hatten überhaupt keine Probleme und waren rundum zufrieden.

Sehr geehrter Herr Nico,
vielen Dank für Ihr positives Feedback.
Es war mir eine Freude, Sie in den Stavromenos Villas zu beherbergen und ich würde mich freuen, Sie und Ihre Freunde in Zukunft wiederzusehen.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Tolles Haus, das optimal ausgestattet ist. Jedes der drei Schlafzimmer verfügt über grosszügige Schränke, die leider bei anderen Anbietern oft zu klein ausfallen. Die Zimmer sind zweckmässig ausgerüstet und haben Klimaanlage.
Auch die Küche (die wir zwar kaum benutzt haben) lässt keine Wünsche offen: Ein riesiger Kühl- und Gefrierschrank, Backofen, Mikrowelle und sogar ein Eierkocher sind vorhanden.
Das Wohn-/ Esszimmer verfügt über Esstisch, Sitzgruppe und einen Kamin, der zur kälteren Jahreszeit zum Einsatz kommen kann.
Die beiden Badezimmer sind zwar zweckmässig, aber doch in die Jahre gekommen. Wie uns der Besitzer mitgeteilt hat, steht ein Update bevor.
Das WLAN ist state-of-the-art: Hier könnten sich einige Hotels eine Scheibe abschneiden...
Der Aussenbereich mit privatem Pool, gedecktem Sitzplatz, beschattetem Essplatz mit Aussengrill, genügend Liegestühlen und Sonnenschirmen ist ein weiteres Highlight dieser Immobilie. Er ist grosszügig angelegt und bietet totale Privatsphäre.
