Foothills Blue Villa - 24.583709

The best

Couldn’t have asked for a better villa and host for our holiday in Crete! From the moment we booked, to the moment we checked out, our host Vasso was very attentive, and made sure that everything was perfect. She showed us what greek hospitality really means! The villa also went over our expectations : recently renovated, with a crazy attention to detail, it’s the perfect place for a group of friends / family. For the first couple of days we barely went out, because the pool had just the right temperature :) The rooms were all very nicely designed, they all had comfortable mattresses, and AC (quite a necessity for those hot summer nights). The kitchen is well equipped, so you’re able to cook for yourself and your friends/family. There’s a pretty big supermarket a couple hundred meters from the villa, where you can get almost anything at a very reasonable price. There are also a couple of coffee & snack shops and tavernas in walking distance. Sfakaki’s beach is also really close, and has one of the warmest sea waters that we’ve ever experienced! The villa is in a really nice location, so it’s a great home base for various trips around Crete. It’s right between Chania & Heraklion, so it’s easy to do day trips to these cities, or the beaches around them. Rethymno is within a short car ride, where you’ll find all kinds of great restaurants, shops, bars, and even a great beach. Would recommend this place to anyone who wants to have a relaxing holiday in Crete.

Even more beautiful than on the pictures. Great host, the accommodation is really well equipped, they have everything you need; washing machine, coffee maker, iron, hairdryer, dishwasher, air conditioner in each room, fresh towels whenever you request. It is really well situated, around 5-8 min from Rethymno by car, and just a few minutes walk from Sfakaki beach. There is a supermarket, a coffee corner and some restaurants very close to the villa. We enjoyed a lot our stay here and can't wait to come back.
