A little slice of heaven away from the crowds. The villa has everything you need and the hosts are very generous with household items meaning we didn’t have to buy any additional extras. The garden is so well kept and is beautiful. There were many days we had the pool to ourselves and it really was peaceful. The sunsets from the roof top are spectacular and makes for great photos. George, his wife and Nana are lovely people and very welcoming. George was able to give us lots of tips on where to eat and visit. Had a couple of evenings chatting away to George which was lovely to hear local history and sharing different cultural information.Beautiful place

Our week in Plaka 1-8 October 2024

This was our first week of 4 in Crete and what a start! All our places we stay have a lot to live up to! George and Nana were the perfect hosts and the accommodation was just as we hoped for and wanted. We we out and about everyday enjoying the surrounding area, travelling as far as the south coast and enjoying many walks and beaches. Lots of places to eat out but the apartment kitchen was so well equipped that it was a pleasure to eat in too! Thanks for the homemade raki, the gift and a bottle of bubbly for my 60th birthday next week! A wonderful stay

Cretan delight

What a fantastic stay. George and Nana our hosts were superb. Outside space is just heavenly in George’s award winning garden. Lovely pool with plenty of outside seating. The accommodation was absolutely spotless and unbelievably well equipped. We would definitely recommend.

Wonderful host and location

Although we had bad luck with a broken arm at the start of our holiday, George and Nana were the most exceptionally kind and thoughtful hosts. We cannot praise them highly enough, and they really made our stay memorable for good things, and helped us enjoy the rest of our stay in their lovely apartment and garden.

Beautifully located and thoughtfully equipped villa. Lovely garden and superb pool.

As one who has two villa holidays a year this was far and away the best ever. Our hosts, George and Nana were so helpful and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble for them. We left feeling like members of the family having received so many restaurant tips from George's encyclopedic knowledge of the Cretan gastronomic scene.The villa was ideally situated to explore the wonderful scenery of Western Crete. This may well be the villa that breaks our holiday rule of not going back to the same place!

A house full of warmth

We stayed with Nana and George for 10 days. The two are very welcoming hosts who made our stay in their wonderful house an unforgettable experience. The apartment, lovingly furnished, personal, and comfortable, is equipped with everything and more, and invites you to feel at home. The enchantingly landscaped garden, where we enjoyed our meals, is truly special, and the fantastic pool also deserves a special mention. The crowning glory for us was the roof terrace, where we could enjoy a special sunset every evening. We arrived as guests and left as friends. Thank you also for the lovely gifts. Nana and George
