Grece Location Vacances Villa de Luxe 2 chambres en Crete face à la mer avec piscine privée dans le village de Elounda   (3)

Ein ziemlich steiler Hügel führt zu mehreren Villen über der Bucht von Elounda. Aus allen Zimmern ein phantastischer Blick. Allerdings schwer zu finden und man sollte sich außerhalb verabreden vor allem nachts hat man sonst keine Chance. Google kennt die Straßen nicht!! Sehr netter Empfang von Kostas und Nicki! Viel Ruhe und Erholung möglich, allerdings etwas außerhalb und natürlich die Auffahrt ist nichts für Feiglinge. Sonst sehr gepflegt und ein schöner Pool. Zimmer sind etwas klein. Aber so eine Aussicht hatten wir bisher noch nie.

The villa delivered everything it promised and we could not fault it in any way. The location was perfect for us - just a five minute drive into town, but it was worth it for the view. It was really peaceful and we awoke to the wonderful sound of birdsong and the local goats which climbed the adjoining hillside every day - the gentle bleating and tinkling of their bells put a smile on our faces every morning. The first morning I was awake particularly early and sat on the balcony watching the beautiful sunrise - a perfect start to our holiday. Hippo was great - on call 24/7 should we need him and visiting each day to clean the pool. He also provided us with a lot of helpful information regarding places to visit. The maid service (every other day) was also most welcome as were the fresh vegetable and fruit they brought from the villas' garden - delicious! The pool was perfect as was the outside area and barbecue (the butchers in town sold the most amazing steaks) We did not find one restaurant in town that disappointed but can highly recommend The Ferryman, The Lotus Eaters, Porto Rino (wonderful pizzas) Olondi and Kanali for fish. Agios Nikolaos is definitely worth visiting for the day - for lunch, shopping and ice cream! Voulisma beach, about 13km from Agios Nikolaos is lovely - golden sand and beach service (food and drink) from the beach bar. Spinalonga is also worth a visit - we took the boat from Plaka, but were very disappointed with Knossos and did not feel it was worth the journey - we would rather have spent our time in the villa pool! We would love to return to Elounda one day and would definitely go back to this villa

We had a great time in Elounda and in the main that was down to the stay in the villas. Hippo your host is very welcoming and knowledgable and can't do enough for you. The views make the place memorable. All you need is in the villa and it's clean. Perfect location too and don't be put off by the step hill to get to the villa - it's fine. The only reason I haven't given 5 stars is the pool is just a little on the small side and the villa is on 3 floors which does mean a bit of exercise going up and down. Would heartily recommend.
