About this villa rental
The Villas are built in a rich colorful stone that emphasizes on the more modern Cretan architecture of today. The villas offer sun flooded areas with shades of different colors during the day periods that leaves a lasting impression from every angle of the Villas. These embody the perfect example for architectural delight and study on Crete’s today’s civilization.
The Villas are designed with high ceilings, spacious rooms and large patio windows. The wooden structure, the marble and glass features and metal fixtures blend materialistically entwined into its stone characters offering a high aesthetic result in design. High quality indoor and outdoor furnishings designed specifically for the villas complete its comfortable environment for sheer relaxation. The famous architects Aristomenes and George Baroudakis managed perfectly to capture, artful design, comfort and sheer quality at its fingertips for every welcoming guest that visits. Impressive high stone walls very thick at the bottom and thinner at the top create a castle like building perfectly harmonized with contemporary design from inside.
Each Villa has its own private overflow swimming pool that can be entered by its yacht style wooden deck that is extended alongside side each of the pools. The pools are made of Diamond Brilliance finishes with quartz aggregates that give a ray of stunning rainbow like colors (iridescences) during different periods of the day. The surrounding garden areas are something to definitely highlight on, as the owners managed to maintain the original fruitful orange and olive trees in their original place during the Villas construction and add flowers and bushy plants.
The fruitful orange trees burst with zest and aromas of natural essence that linger in their lush gardens and emphasize on the uniquely built quality of these three individual and private Villas. Oranges are ready to be picked up by guest during the spring and summer periods to taste the best Cretan juices.

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2025
The villa was excellent spotlessly clean and every detail taken care of. Despina was a superb host from initial contact right up to leaving the property. The villa is beautifully appointed and only 2 miles from teh nearest beach which is quiet and beautiful. The nearby Acacia restaurant in the village is great for an easy night out with good food. Despina's help went right from giving us tips on places to visit to finding a dentist for me due to a mishap. The pool was beautiful and the garden had orange and lemon trees and was beautifully set. I would highly recommend this villa both as a relaxing place and as a good base for exploring Western Crete

5.0 / 10.0·Aug 2018
Our experience was outstanding - would give 6 stars if I could! We are a family of four, our children are aged 8 and 4. The villa is absolutely beautiful, clearly designed and built to incredibly high standards. Despina and her husband, Nikos, made us feel at home from the start. Our flight was significantly delayed, but Nikos had stayed at the airport to welcome us, make sure everything was OK with our car rental and guide us to the villa at around 1 am. There was a lovely welcome basket of local produce for us on the table and a carafe of Raki to cheer us up after the delay.The pool was perfect for our children who are both good swimmers, but with the way it is designed (depth and width) would also be great for younger children or those who dont swim so well. The kitchen is a great size and incredibly well stocked, with everything we could possibly need, in a well-organized fashion. The bedrooms/bathrooms are a good size and could easily accommodate a larger family. The cleaners were excellent and the villa was spotless throughout our stay, despite the chaos our children can introduce to any environment! The villa is also very quiet and private. Despite there being another 2 villas in the complex, you would not know there is anyone else around.One of the highlights is the Cretan breakfast each morning. Effie, the chef who prepares the breakfast, is wonderful and the outdoor kitchen/dining area set in the orange grove is stunning. She was incredibly welcoming to the children and prepared what we are reliably informed is the best chocolate milk ever. The food was delicious and she gave us some great tips on where to explore during our week.Despina was a great help in planning our week too. She was immediately available in person or by text to answer any questions and provide help in planning trips and reserving restaurants for us. Her recommendations were brilliant (we had great meals at Captain Fidias, Thalassino Ageri, and Arismari restaurants).In terms of places to visit, the beautiful town of Chania is very easy to drive to (takes about 20 minutes), local beaches and restaurants about 10 minutes away and Elafonissi beach is just over an hour away. For those wanting to experience a bit of history, Knossos is a 2-hour drive away ( well worth the trip), and closer by are the ruins of Ancient Aptera (about 30 minutes away).This was a fantastic holiday, in a beautiful villa run by wonderful owners and great staff.
