Lovely villa

The villa Victoria was perfect for our family of 4 and, frankly, it would easily have fit another 4 people while still giving them their space. The pool was beautiful, especially for our post-beach time. The balcony at the back became our favorite spot to sit and watch the landscape. It was also a very private location which was great for us. The host was very responsive and helpful, including coming to our rescue when I locked us out! All in all, this was a wonderful spot.

Family time

Impressive villa, equipped with everything you might need. Great pool and outside eating area with barbecue / wood stove / fridge for long Al fresco evenings. Hot tub large enough to share. Bedrooms all luxuriously fitted out and a great kitchen. We were regular customers at the two mini markets in the village, and at Christo’s excellent taverna. All near enough to walk to. Our two year old loved the animals close to the villa, and our athletes loved running round the University campus and even the 3 mile downhill lope into Rethymno. We used the grocery delivery service for a mammoth shop to be ready for our arrival and it was well worth it - we could settle straight into our holiday. The villa owner Vicky and the etouri team made sure we had plenty of ideas for local restaurants and excursions. We used the Private Dining service and loved it - wonderful food and no clearing up! We loved the Amari valley both for the archeological museum and sites and for the fabulous tavernas. Local beaches were fine - we usually went towards the end of the day when the heat started to drop.

Amazing Villa!

This beautiful villa is exactly as advertised. In fact, it's better than advertised. One example, is the many fruit trees filling the front yard. Vicky, the owner, encouraged us to pick any fruit we desired. This was a first, and a pleasant surprise. We loved the total privacy, amazing view, hot tub, pool and outdoor amenities. The villa, itself, is as inviting and comfortable as depicted. There's nothing more we could have wanted. The kitchen and refrigerator was stocked with fresh, local foods, drinks, coffee, and water. This went way beyond 'just the necessities'. Of course, the hot tub was amazing after long days of sight seeing. As for sight seeing...I think the location of the villa (in Rethymno) is perfect. The whole island is accessible from this centraI location. We also enjoyed the old town of Rethmno over any other Cretan towns. Old town was amazing. Lastly, I think that what sets this villa apart is the wonderful owners, Vicky and Kostas. They ensured that every creature comfort was available upon our arrival. What impressed us most was how thoughtfully they engaged during our stay. We experienced uncommonly bad weather for a few days. Vicky texted us suggestions of things we could do around the island, despite the bad weather. She also texted restaurant suggestions (of local favorites). We truly appreciated their personal care. Thank you Vicky and Kostas! We hope to to visit again.

Couldn't have been better!

We stayed at Villa Victoria as a large family in June 2021. It was our first visit to Crete and we honestly couldn't have asked for a better holiday. The villa was perfectly suited to our needs (including four children aged 7 months to 5 years) and ideally located to explore the local town and beautiful beaches. Victoria and Kostas made us feel instantly welcome and couldn't do enough to ensure that we had a brilliant holiday. The villa itself had everything we needed. The kitchen was really well-equipped, everything was very clean and the outside barbecue area was an added bonus. The pool has several steps leading into the shallow end, which made it perfect for the children. And the hot tub was great for the adults! The grounds around the villa were well-kept and include a lovely orchard and vegetable patch which you can help yourself to. We would highly recommend this villa (and Crete!) to anyone looking for a place to relax, enjoy good food and beautiful beaches.

The Beautiful Villa Victoria

We have had the best time and holiday 2 weeks at Villa Victoria located just outside the beautiful town of Rethymno we are a family of 12 ages ranging from 82 years old to 13 months old the villa was perfect for all our needs plenty of space for everyone, each room with it's own balcony . Garden, bbq area , pool area and jacuzzi are very spacious and beautifully equiped. The only negatives being the 2 bedrooms on the middle floor off the kitchen the mattress are very uncomfortable they are rock hard I did speak to the owner Vicky and called our personal concierge after the first night to let them know and ask could mattress toppers be provided but was told they did not have any which was disapointing for such a highly rated villa. The lovely cleaning lady Marietta came every 2nd day and did a great job leaving everything spotless. There are several options for getting food delivered menus and numbers provided. The Etouri personal concierge is a huge bonus they are extremely helpful it is a great service. All in all we had an amazing time I would highly recommend this Villa it was a dream location.

A great villa. We loved it. Was perfect for our two weeks in Crete with family and friends.

We loved the villa. Well equipped throughout. It made our holiday, providing a base for other visiting friends and family who were in Crete to celebrate our wedding. The pool and spa were excellent and had great views out to sea. We made use of the outdoor covered bbq area. Master bedroom was massive with separate terrace, walk in wardrobe and on suit. Other bedrooms were also good. The owner was friendly but gave us our privacy. We highly recommend. If we can, we will be back...

Wonderful spacious fully equipped villa, backed up by very responsive owners to any requests

We were a group of 10 adults who spent a week at this brilliant villa. We made full use of the numerous features including the jacuzzi, gym, pizza oven, pool and fully equipped kitchen. Sometimes more focus should be paid to the response to a problem rather than the problem itself. We had one example of this when the water supply in the area was cut off for 2 days. The owner Kostas reacted by craning in 2 additional 1000 litre tanks onto the roof and plumbed them into the existing tank, ensuring the villa will be fully protected against water supply issues in the future. We were hugely impressed by the owners actions. The villa was cleaned and bedding/towels changed every other day. We preferred not to hire a car, instead used taxi’s and hired a quad bike for trips to the local mini market. We used the near by tennis courts (bring your own rackets & balls). We have very fond memories of our stay at Villa Victoria and fully recommend it. Regards Patrick

Amazing property, better than expected

After viewing the video and seeing all of the pictures, our expectations were pretty high, and I would say that for the most part, they were exceeded. The Villa is immaculate, and the service is exceptional. We stayed with four other couples and there was more than enough room for everyone. The villa is really beautiful, and full stocked, including a very generous amount of welcome food, anything we would need for breakfast, snacks, etc on our first day. What we didn't anticipate was the beautiful orchard and the ability to eat fresh peaches each day. Over the course of the week, with everybody coming and going in different directions, I'm sure that other than the playground, every amenity was enjoyed. Vicky is such a gracious hostess, really enjoyed visiting with her, and the on call staff were very helpful. At one point ants were discovered in one of the main level bedrooms, and someone was sent right away to give us spray, and the owner arranged for the perimeter for the villa to be sprayed asap. The only concerns that our companions had were that the main level beds(in both rooms) were very uncomfortable for them and 3 of the 5 rooms were much smaller than portrayed in the pictures. I don't believe this would be an issue at all for families, however, when adults are splitting the price, it is a bit disappointing for a few. Additionally, some of us arrived at night, and even with the GPS, the signs to the villa are not easily seen because of the lack of streetlights. It was very difficult to find, and one of our companions needed to come and find us to guide us in. Maybe reflective paint on the sign would help? Overall, however, I would stay here again in a heartbeat! The location on the island is perfect to explore anywhere, the villa is outstanding the service was really exceptional. Thank you to the owners and staff.
