Pyrgos villa 4 ,sea view,pool,South Crete,Plakias
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (13)
"We had the best time staying at this property. 5 stars all the way!! The only 2 things that I would change are the comfort of the bed (it was very hard), and switching the two twin beds from the master bedroom with the view & bathroom with the larger bed that was in the back bedroom. We just ended up sleeping in the back bedroom with the larger bed. We still enjoyed our time nonetheless. I hate to even mention these two things because they were so minuscule in the grand scheme. So beautiful and...

"Our stay at the villa was very enjoyable & relaxing. The host family was extremely welcoming, attentive & generous - we enjoyed some lovely homemade meals. The villa was well- serviced. We enjoyed the large comfortable bed & found the villa, in general, well-appointed & comfortable - good air-conditionimg & appliances were much appreciated. Our pool, in the lower villa, did not enjoy the privacy we expected as the villa above has a good view of it, but this wasn't really an issue. We enjoyed the...

Villa with private pool and panoramic sea and mountain views

"A lovely villa in a peaceful tranquil retreat. Wonderful views of the coast and surrounding hills. Watch the Eagles soaring above. Very peaceful you can listen to the wildlife around you. The nearest Taverna is just over a kilometer away but you are unlikely to encounter a car walking there. Beautiful lake nearby to see the fresh water turtles."

"Lovely place to stay! Comfortable, clean, well kept property. Property manager was so welcoming and helpful. On arrival there was a full, prepared meal for us, as well as home made bread! Additionally, there were all essentials such as bottled water, milk, juice, butter, and jam for breakfast the next morning. Beds and linens were excellent, and plenty of towels for the bath and pool. Pool and landscaping were lovely, and surrounding area was very scenic. We had a great stay, and suggestion...

"The comfortable apartment was one of a handful on an impeccably maintained development on the north coast of Crete. The views were amazing and the pool area simply beautiful. The property was well equipped with very nice fixtures and efficient air con. The owner Celine is a very special lady who takes warmth and hospitality to a whole new level and simply nothing was too much trouble for her when it came to making our stay as enjoyable as possible. We would not hesitate to give Celine and...

"The villa is amazing. All amenities included, except WiFi. There is an odd request for £50 for this after we booked. The WiFi doesn’t reach upstairs. The pool and gardens are regularly maintained and are beautiful. The view is stunning. It’s an out of the way location, so peaceful but you need a car. Many beaches a short drive away. The villa is well managed and any requests were dealt with immediately. Definitely recommend a stay here for a peaceful holiday."

"Overall loved the place. There were a few niggles like the garden lights being intentionally turned off detracting from the atmosphere, penny-pinching in the extreme. Not being able to leave the washing machine or dishwasher on when going out because the electricity fob was locked to the door key, very patronising, especially considering the money paid for rental.the location was excellent and the outside ameneties great. Did think more effort could be put into a welcome basket maybe salt pepper...

"Highly recommend this lovely family run hotel in a quiet location outside rethymno. Beach is down the road. The entire staff/family was warm, welcoming and professional. All our needs were addressed with joy and compassion. The hosts offered detailed advice about all the great places to visit. My husband had a health issue and we were pointed to the best clinic. As well, due to the issue, extra care was taken in our room. Truly a gem of a small hotel!"

"Breathtaking views perched on the hills overlooking the sea and the white mountains. Run by a wonderful and helpful local family. I loved this property even with the tiny shower and slow internet (Whole area is slow). This is the best place for this area, close to a beautiful town Georgioupoli and to over 6-10 miles of beach. It has a nice pool but the balconies are the steal. "

"For the first three days in the property, our vacation was made very difficult because of the smell of damp, which was so bad that my wife wanted to leave and stay somewhere else on our first day of being in the property. It spoiled the beginning of our holiday. The fact that the property had not been opened and that it was damp inside for a long time meant that, even though we had all the windows open, candles and air fresheners, and that we left the property for a long time during the days...

9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (36)
"Summer Dream was the best hotel we could ask for. It was extremely modern, great view, and the town of Rethymno has a wonderful downtown area. If you go, I recommend Achinos, I believe it is spelled. The best food we had in Greece. Summer dream is also located next to many markets including SKYNKA, which is walking distance. I would absolutely recommend staying here. It was the best part of our trip in Crete. "
