Fabulous Villa right on the beach

Owner was amazing. Met us when we arrived with a massive hamper of fresh fruit . The villa was perfect with everything you could want . Lots of space outside for relaxing with a wonderful pool. Ideal for a relaxing family holiday and there is also a small splash pool for younger children. At the end of the garden was a gate that led straight to the beach Lots of taverns nearby and little local shops. The main town is only a 15 minute car ride away I cant recommend this property highly enough and we would definitely stay in this Villa again.

Great villa and superb service in fantastic location

It’s hard to praise Villa Amirikia highly enough. It has given us the best family holiday we have ever had, with ample space for ourselves, our two adult children and their partners. Facilities are excellent, the pool and easy access to the sea (warmer than the pool in September) are great, and the service from the owner, Vasilis, and his team is hard to fault. Essentially nothing is too much trouble for him! The location is also very good – only 5 miles from the lovely town of Rethymno with its excellent shops, bars and restaurants, and halfway between Chania and Heraklion. So both major airports are only an hour and a bit away, as are the two biggest towns in Crete and major attractions such as Knossos. Very highly recommended!

Für Ruhesuchende

Es war ein perfekter Urlaub für die ganze Familie und Freunde. Herr Vasilis Spiridakis hat uns sehr herzlich empfangen und erkundigte sich immer ob alles zu unserer Zufriedenheit ist. Er kann auch gute Tipps geben. Der Strand vor der Haustüre war fein ruhig und man kann sehr herrlich schwimmen. Der Garten bietet sehr viel Platz zum Spielen und Entspannen. Es findet jeder seinen idealen Platz. Tavernen und Einkaufsmöglichkeit ganz in der Nähe.

Sehr sauber, sehr netter Vermieter und schöne Lage am Meer

Die Übergabe des Schlüssels erfolgte direkt am Haus. Nach der Schlüsselübergabe hat der Besitzer des Hauses alles erklärt und es gab einen selbst gemachten Begrüßungsschnaps. Es war auch frisches Obst bereitgestellt. Das Haus selbst war sehr sauber. Pool wurde alle zwei Tage gereinigt und das Haus nach einer Woche. Handtücher und Bettwäsche wurden auch getauscht. Der Vermieter war immer erreichbar und und hat sich sehr bemüht alle Wünsche zu erfüllen. Wir haben unseren Urlaub sehr genossen. Ein großes Dankeschön noch an den wirklich sehr netten Vermieter.

Herrlicher Urlaub in schöner Villa am Strand

Wir haben 14 wunderschöne Urlaubstage zu 5 mit Familie und Freunden in der Villa verbracht. Das Haus ist einfach eingerichtet aber völlig ausreichend. Alle Schlafzimmer verfügen über eine Klimaanlage. Alles ist sauber und aufgeräumt. Der Pool ist klasse und man kann vom Grundstück aus an den Strand uns ins Meer gehen. Der Zugang ist zwar etwas steinig, aber mit Badeschuhen völlig ok. Es gibt genügend Aufenthaltsmöglichkeiten auf der großen Terrasse oder weiter vorn vor dem Strand. Das Poolhaus haben wir nicht genutzt, hier könnten weitere 2 Personen unterkommen. Der Gastgeber ist super nett und steht mit Rat und Tat zur Seite und ist immer erreichbar und spricht sehr gut Englisch. Bis Rethymnon Stadt ist es mit dem Auto oder Bus ein Katzensprung. Sehr gute Tavernen sind fußläufig erreichbar und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten 5 Min mit dem Auto entfernt. Wir können die Unterkunft nur empfehlen und kommen gerne wieder.
