8 / 10Excellent·Apr 2026
The property was clean & spacious with nice views. It's within easy walking distance of Kateros village, which in season would have a few restaurants and shops and a bakery. Only one seafront restaurant and 1 taverna on the main road was open in early April. It's easy access to the motorway great for sightseeing if you hire a car, if you intend to stay put in the village I wouldn't come out of season. There are a few things that weren't clear in the listing that potential renters would want to know. The property is split into 2 holiday lets, on middle & top floor. There is also a separate let below which seems to be someones permanent residence. I thought I'd booked a villa (whole property) not 1 floor, due to the time of year we booked (early April) it didn’t matter to us, but peak season could affect others. The sun rises on the side of the house, so there is no sun on the terrace. The property is open plan, plenty of space , there are 2 large tables seating 6 each and a 3 seater & 2 seater sofa, so even thought it's advertised as up to 6 there's only sofa seating for 5. There's a large shower room with loo, sink & washing machine and a separate wc with no ventilation, so often quite smelly. One big issue for couples sharing is 1 of the 4 bedrooms is accessed through another bedroom which makes it unusable if not being used by your own young children. This wasn't made clear in the listing.

Wir haben uns 2 Wochen sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter war super. Für einen entspannten Urlaub hat man hier alles, was man braucht.

Sehr schöne und sehr saubere Ferienwohnung in einzel stehender Villa. Gigantisch große und wunderbare Dachterrasse mit Außenküche und Aussicht aufs Meer über die gesamte Bucht. Mit allem eingerichtet, was man braucht. Sehr zuvor kommende Vermieter, unkompliziert und immer in Kontakt. Perfekte Ausgangslage für Inselerkundung aber auch Badeurlaub. Mietwagen empfehlenswert.

Die Villa Pasiphae Karteros Bay ist günstig in der Nähe von Hieraklion und nahe zum Meer gelegen. Die Wohnräume sind neu ausgebaut bzw. renoviert, die Gesamtanlage gibt aber wegen des nicht fertig ausgebauten Einfahrtsbereichs und Kellers einen nicht ganz fertigen Eindruck. Die Inneneinrichtung und Küchenausstattung ist komplett, allerdings waren einige der Matratzen hart und unbequem. WLAN war sehr gut, TV war nicht angeschlossen. Die sehr große Dachterrasse mit überdachter Pallisade und großem, überdachtem Grillbereich bietet eine schöne Aussicht (für schöne Abendstimmung) (konnten wir wegen schlechtem Wetter leider nicht nutzen).
