Kalathas Sunset Villa - Filias ton Laon

Perfect house even for a big family (we had 5 kids with us). The beach is one of the best in Crete and the hosts Efi and Spiros are extremely friendly and helpful

A great place to stay in Crete! It has a perfect view from the terrace! Efi and Spyros are very friendly and helpful! Thank you! We loved staying in their villa!

Sea, sun, sand and perfect accommodation! Perfect tandem - the best place for relax on the beach and for stay on the villa, fast beach access and private placement at the same time! 1. Location is very convenient - not far from Chania and from airport, in front of the beach Kalathas. The beach with a shallow sea, that's why it has warm water and no waves: it's ideal for child's swimming. We were at the sea twice a day. 2. Accommodation is very comfortable and high quality. It's good for family with children. There is a beautiful garden, especial view from villa at morning (sunrise), day, evening (sunset), night (you can see fireworks from Chania); on terrace there is also table for 6 persons in open air under the shed, sun beds, table for two persons under sun umbrella and many others things - all for good relax at any part of the day. There are all home appliances as you need: iron, dishwasher, washing machine, cooker, oven and microwave oven, fridge, hairdryer etc. 3. Unique atmosphere thanks to owners: any help and advice for your needs. We had a hospitable reception all the days, shopping and transportation assistance and many other things. We lived as welcome guests or as close persons.

Simply the best accommodation we stayed at while in Crete. Efi and Spiros are exemplary hosts and immediately made us feel at home. We arrived too late for dinner but Efi had prepared a freshly baked cheese pie, Greek salad, fresh fruit and wine for us! Our refrigerator was also stocked with eggs, cheese, meat, butter jam, yogurt, beer and more wine. Simply over the top kindness and consideration for our late arrival. Two days later we hiked Samaria Gorge and Spiros drove us to the trailhead which was over an hour away! He went way over and above the call of duty for us. The home is large and perfect for up to 6 adults, not counting children. Plenty of space so you won't feel on top of each other. Plus, and I saved this for the end, the view from their enormous, fully equipped patio, is simply stunning. Sunsets right in front of you every evening and a great beach below you, just a few minutes walk. I can't recommend highly enough Kalathas Sunset Villa. We have stayed all over Europe at BnBs and this has been the best... not to mention the wonderful Efi and Spiros who are seriously some of the nicest people we have met anywhere.

Absolutely stunning views from the huge outdoor patio and every interior room. What sunsets! But you want to know what the best part of staying at Kalathas Sunset Villa is? It's the owners Efi and Spiros!! They are simply wonderful. We arrived too late to go to a restaurant for dinner so Efi prepared a large cheese pie for us...it was still warm-yum, so good, a Greek salad, fresh fruit and wine. She was beyond thoughtful. Then, when we opened the refrigerator it was stalked with more fruit, cheese, bread, butter jam, water, wine and beer, and more! We hiked Samaria Gorge on day 3 and Spiros drove us over 1 hour to the trail head at 6AM. He did it out of the kindness of his heart. And Spiros has a BIG heart! The accommodations were fantastic. 3 large bedrooms, one ensuite, one extra full bath, a fully equipped kitchen, large living and dining rooms, and oh that outdoor patio with chairs, tables and the view! There is a gas grill we used to grill lamb chops one night just so we could enjoy more of the view. There is a great, safe swimming beach 1/4 mile from the villa, actually, right below the villa. We have stayed at numerous BnBs around Europe but Kalathas Sunset Villa has truly been our best experiences so far. The hosts are "Superhosts" the accommodations are beautiful and spotlessly clean, and oh, did I mention the view?

Four of us shared the apartment at Kalathas Sunset Villa for four days this October. It was, seriously, perfect. The apartment is spacious, very well-equipped, and comfortably furnished. Each of the three bedrooms has double glass doors opening on to the terrace—doors complete with shutters and screens. The terrace is huge and private and provided with both a large umbrella and an awning. The terrace is, again, very well furnished with a table and a wide variety of chairs & lounges. The view is spectacular. The true treasures of Kalathas Villa, however, are the hosts, Efi & Spiros. I’ve never known hosts more attentive to their guests’ needs and wants. We found a kitchen furnished with, among many other things, cereal, milk, juice, and eggs. Not one gifted bottle of wine but two and a bottle of that Cretan specialty, raki. Elsewhere in the apartment Efi & Spiros seemed to have anticipated all our possible needs down to laundry detergent & toothpaste. Efi checked in with us, casually & unobtrusively, each day to see how we were doing & what we needed. Any drawbacks? The driveway is short & steep & not for the faint of heart. Spiros met us at the entry the first day, gave us perfect advice on how to tackle the drive, and led us up. After the first endeavor, further efforts became second nature. Planes, civil & military, fly overhead but Chania isn’t O’Hare or Heathrow—there just aren’t that many planes. There’s a beach very close by and downtown Chania is a 20 minute drive (& Spiros will tell you where to find parking). What can I say?—we loved this place.

This place is an absolutely Phenomenal Accommodation!! From the terrace view, the private beach, unlimited safe swimming area to the sparkling clean, well-equipped, and very spacious villa! Efi and Spiros - Thank you so much for being the warmest hostess and host! This spot is a very short drive from the airport in Chania, and sits high on a hill with AMAZINGLY romantic, tranquil views! The private beach and most of the bay is free of boat traffic, so the swimming is fantastic and there is great snorkeling around the island a short swim away. The Villa has a HUGE terrace with lots of comfortable outdoor furniture and a large covered eating area. I stayed here for a full week with 4 other friends and we ALL LOVED this villa! The kitchen and laundry are well equipped for your day to day, and there are excellent authentic restaurants within walking distance or a short drive. There are a ton of places to explore for all types of adventure levels, but you can certainly relax for as many days as you wish without leaving the villa. The wifi was great, everything worked, the sunsets and moon rises are AMAZING! Efharisto! Efi and Spiros - We will be back! <3 <3

Had an amazing stay at Kalathas Sunset Villa. The hosts, Efi and Spiros are adorable, super warm and welcoming. They picked and dropped us from the airport and helped us with everything that we wanted. The beach is a 10 min walk from the place. There are good restaurants in the vicinity. The villa also has a splendid view of the beach and sunset. The place also has all the amenities that you might need for a vacation and beach accessories. Thanks to the lovely hosts for making our trip memorable.
