10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2025
Simply my best stay ever.Diana was not simply a super super host but an amazing being. The property is close to the airport, old city Chania, restaurants and more. Accessing the main highways was very easy. The pool wow.And last but not least was the hidden gem outside the kitchen that was our all day sitting area, away from the sun but with a nice breeze.Honestly we did not want to leave and definitely the villa will be our home away from home when we return to Chania.The views are spectacular, the comfort is like home, the kitchen well stacked. An addition that did not appear in the pictures is a new railing for the stairs to the bedrooms.Before booking, one review that impressed me was that the pictures don’t make it justice. Well I second the motion. Thank you again Diana and regards to all.

5.0 / 10.0·May 2018
We are so thankful for the hospitality that were presented to us during our stay. Diana and her mother has been a huge help during our 3 days. This is the best experience I have had even better than hotels!The placeIt’s the type of place you have to see in person to believe in the beauty of it. Pictures does not do justice. Plenty of room around the house for our group of 7.We have literally everything we needed to cook our own meal and you have to see the view of sunrise and sunset from the balcony.The location:We were pretty close to chania so we were able to ride bicycles around the city, there are many beautiful sites to see around the area.Thank you for such a great experience!
