Nice stay at mountainside home
Our family of 5 had a great stay at Samantha’s place on the mountainside. The home was spacious, clean, and matched the description well. Samantha was a responsive and thoughtful host. The home is in a remote location about 10-15 min drive up the mountain, so this is perfect if you want something off the beaten track! Thank you, Samantha!

Lovely house in the mountains
Lovely property with a really nice couple doing the rentals. We had to get to the house at 10pm and were thankful for Samantha’s comprehensive instructions. The road is not to bad once you get used to it which took us a few trips. The house itself was kept really clean, is beautiful to look at and has great views. Bedrooms and bathrooms are downstairs the kitchen, lounge and terraces on the 1st floor. It works well. The Swimming pool is large, well maintained and perfect for hot afternoons in. The outside area had a good barbecue, a swing and various seating and lounging areas. The house is in a group of 5/6 properties fairly close to each other with the owners having a couple of these. As a remote house everything is not perfect but what I was happy about is that the owners fixed things quickly when they went wrong. Overall we enjoyed being here and would recommend it to anyone wanting a break somewhere a bit different. Samantha we thank you for your hospitality. Best wishes

Lovely Spot
Such a lovely spot up in the mountains! Less touristic with beautiful scenery. Samantha was a very attentive and helpful host. We stayed for a week and saw a fair bit of Northern Crete with one trip to the South. The pool was great to have in a heatwave, and the house was very comfortable, tasteful and clean (with a mid-week service!). Very nice for two families of three to spend time together. Loved the goats and owl.

A magical vacation
If you love the countryside than this is your dream vaca! The views are spectacular, the pool was perfect and the villa was lovely and even more beautiful than we expected. We highly recommend this incredible place! It is a bit off the beaten track in regards going out at night but a very easy location to go to Chania for day trips, beaches and cultural excursion. Thank you Samantha and Jerry for an incredible experience!

Wonderful
One of the most beautiful vacation rental houses we have ever stayed in. Very relaxing and away from huzzle, but just a short car trip from beaches. The special touches and the thoughtfulness upon our arrival made our week even sweeter.

Relaxing break
Crete and its people are wonderful and the property allowed us to enjoy the hospitality and scenery fully. There are many excellent tavernas within a short drive and access to mountains and coast is 25 mins max. Beautiful. The property is within a small group and is exceptionally clean with all facilities and regular cleaning was made every few days during our two weeks. We would recommend the property to anybody looking for an opportunity to unwind The owners are readily available for help and advice should you need it.

You will not be disappointed!!
As we had booked the Villa before March 2020 our August holiday was to be blighted by the prospect of cancellation through Covid. Samantha supported us all the way and kept us informed of any changes over in Crete. The Villa was well worth the anxiety; it’s a beautiful building in a beautiful location. It has a backdrop of the White Mountains and views out towards the sea. The Villa has everything you could ever need and Samantha is but a phone call away for advice and help.

A Slice of Heaven
Gorgeous well appointed villa with panoramic views. A brilliant taste of rural Crete with all home comforts. The villa is spacious, comfortable and immaculately clean. Pool is sufficiently deep enough to enjoy a swim, without being scarily so. Warm welcome at the airport from the owner was hugely appreciated - particularly as we arrived at night. Recommend trying the food delivery service from the local taverna. Delicious! The area offers a brilliant mix of holiday options ranging from beaches, rural villages, mountains and archaeological sites as well as the Venetian city of Chania itself. This property is highly recommended. Just book it!
