About this villa rental
Villa Vamagia is a spacious 200 m² property comprising two independent houses, perfectly situated above Almyrida Bay.
Just a short 200-meter stroll brings you to the charming Plaka main square, where you’ll find supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, and shops.
Almyrida Beach is only 800 meters away, offering more dining options, shops, and activities to enjoy by the sea.
Accommodating up to 10 guests, Villa Vamagia is thoughtfully designed to cater families and groups of friends, providing both comfort and privacy.
The upper house has two double bedrooms with a shared bathroom and a washing machine, an additional sofa bed is also available for an extra guest, a cozy living room and a dining area, a fully equipped kitchen and a separate office space with a breathtaking view of Almyrida Bay extending to Souda Bay—a perfect spot for work or relaxation.
Multiple balconies, each offering stunning views of the sea and surrounding landscape.
The lower-level house has one double bedroom, a three-bedroom (one double and one single bed), with a shared bathroom and a washing machine, a spacious living room and dining room and fully equipped kitchen.
The villa has very well maintained gardens with lots of roses, a lemon tree and other plants.
A small lawn area makes a delightful space for children to play or for quiet moments surrounded by nature.
Swimming pool area with a breathtaking view is connected to the BBQ and Dining Area. A cozy covered patio and dining table invites you to host your gatherings.
For a truly memorable evening, consider hiring local cooks to prepare a traditional Cretan feast right at the villa.
Villa Vamagia is a short drive away from Kournas Lake (40 minutes), Chania city and its historical Venetian Harbor (24km) and Rethymno city (1 hour).
It is also close to Chania Airport (28 km), Souda port (20km), and Heraklion airport (130km).
A pharmacy is just 600 meters away, and Vamos Health Care Center is 6 km away in case of emergencies. The villa also offers two private parking spaces.

Lovely villa in a great location with stunning views. The outside space with barbecue is the perfect area for alfresco dining. The host Michalis as always was very helpful and contactable. Overall the perfect place to stay in Plaka.

Location of the villa is briliant. Just a few minutes walk from the village of Plaka which has a few bars and restuarants plus a couple of supermarkets. The transfer from Chania airport was around 30 minutes and a very pleasant drive along the coast.
The villa itself is split into two, two bedroomed properties so suitable for sharing families or friends. One villa is on the upper floor and has fabulous views across the bay and the second villa has access to the large terrace overlooking the pool and enjoying the fabulous view also. There is a large barbeque area on the terrace and plenty of seating for eating, drinking and generally being merry! Tip - the terrace gets very hot during the evening as the sun is setting so don't make the mistake of eating out too early.
The pool is a good size with four sun loungers to enjoy the sunshine. The pool area gets the sun for the most of the day and the glass wall lets you enjoy the uniterrupted view of the mountains and the coastline. Unfortunately, during our 12 day stay, the pool was not cleaned and there wasn't any pool equipment (scoop etc) to enable us to do it ourselves.
The other downside to this property is the WiFi. The speed is atrocious and drops every five to ten minutes, which made watching movies on a streaming service impossible. It was also not a favourite aspect of the holiday for two teenagers who wanted to be online.
Both villas were well equipped with plenty of crockery and kitchen accessories (dishwasher tabs included) along with a lovely set of toiletries, loo roll, and fluffy white towels. We had a linen change five days into the holiday which was great and were provided with large pool towels so we didn't have to use the bathroom ones.
All in all a great villa in a fabulous location with an amazing view. We had considered returning next year for a few weeks to work (as we work from home) but the only thing stopping us is the WiFi.

The property is beautiful, the pool and patio area sublime and the village perfect. It was everything we hoped for when booking a family holiday in Crete.
