Exceptional Experience
Katerina and her staff are accommodating and gracious. She is an exceptional hostess with impressive attention to detail and cleanliness as well as our requests. She was able to coordinate a rental vehicle that simplified our transportation needs and her generosity and friendliness was welcoming at all times! This villa was all we hoped and more with the grand mountainous setting in the small village overlooking Souda Bay. The house was well stocked and allowed us to create great memories such as cooking delicious meals shared with family and friends. If traveling during unpredictable springtime weather, the villa’s luxuries of a pool and hot tub are thoroughly appreciated. Can't wait to return!

Beautiful stay
We had a really really nice vacation. Very nice property with a nice pool and jacuzzi. House was great, it’s located in a kind of a remote area under a mountain. Amazing view. The village is really neat too. House was clean, internet was great, tv was working. Very good airco as well. Katerina (the owner) was super nice and easy to talk to. Would recommend if you want a nice chill place away from the hustle and bustle. Great for kids btw.

Loved this place!
We absolutely loved this villa, it was perfect! It is located in a little village and the views from the roof top terrace are awesome, the host met us at a meeting point and we followed her to the villa. She gave us plenty of recommendations on places to eat, visit and shop for groceries. If you want an authentic Greek village stay, then this is the place. You will not regret it.

A beautiful villa in a tranquil, traditional village
A fabulously furnished villa with comfy and luxurious beds, a spacious and convivial kitchen and great outdoor areas. Three choices of terrace to enjoy the sun until mid-afternoon and the beach is an easy 10 minute drive. Fantastic evenings in the hot tub watching the stars appear and listening to the cicada chorus along with a Scops Owl if you’re lucky as we were. Katerina is a fabulous host and gave us some wonderful parting gifts which we will treasure. Highly recommended!

Fabulous Village house
Loved this place. The location is fantastic and the views are incredible. Our host was really helpful and met us so that she could take us to the location so we wouldn't get lost. Local villages were beautiful with great tavernas and only a 10-15 minute ride to the coastal town of Kalyves where there were plenty more tavernas. Beautiful area to explore between Chania and Rethmyon. Villa was very comforatble and both the terraces, pool and hot tub were a pleasure but most of all the peace and traniquility of the location. We hope to reture and would definitely recommend it.

A quiet place in the country
My friend and I loved our stay. Katerina was kind, hospitable and very efficient. The house was perfect. I really enjoyed the upper patio every morning and using the hot tub in the evenings. We also enjoyed strolling through the village - a beautiful place. Great location from which to explore the island, and always a wonderful place to return to after a long day.

Luxurious villa in exquisite mountain village
What is not to love about this place? We were there the first fortnight of September. The village itself, Machairoi, is in a stunning location amongst verdant hills and with a tiny church clinging to the mountain above. We'd seen it two years before - one of those places that looks magical from a distance. We hadn't realised it was one and the same place until we arrived, but it immediately made us feel at home. It's an idyllic, sleepy place with a cute square and villagers going about their lives with an occasional nod, wave, yassas or kalispera when we headed out for a walk. The round trip to Nerochori was a beautiful walk, best done after 5 when then sun is beginning to descend behind the mountains. Raises the heart rate, some of those hills! Katerina met us at the villa with a warm welcome and some tips on where to go for some late Sunday lunch food. Armenoi - perfect choice sitting amongst the Cretan sunday family revellers under the shade of some trees. The villa is well-appointed - and a decent collection of cooking and household things already in stock (better than most). It was a percent size for us two, with a sweet courtyard that got a good balance of sun and shade - breakfast outdoors is a true joy of a holiday. Katerina makes sure the villa is cleaned twice a week, which also feels like a luxury, and was always thoughtfully on hand should we need her advice. All in all, delightful. Right up to and including the sweet gifts her Mother Olga gave to us to take home. Thank you! We'll definitely be back.

Traditional with a Modern Twist!
Villa Aladanos is traditional in its style, blending seamlessly into Meheri village. The interior design is modern, spacious and rustic in appearance. It was cool and welcoming, especially after a day out in the sun. Furthermore, the courtyard was an excellent place to relax and unwind, sitting in the hot tub with a glass of wine or two! We loved the open plan living area, which led to one of the main bedrooms. Whilst the bedroom was huge, the adjoining shower room, could have benefited from being a wet room. The stairwell spiralled to the main bedroom and roof terrace. The vaulted ceiling in the bedroom, made the room more airy and spacious. The ensuite bathroom was designed well. It featured a deep bath with a mixer shower. However, a fully fitted shower inside the bath would have been more useful! We can highly recommend two tavernas in nearby villages. Taverna Drosostalia in Armeni village was excellent value for money. The food and local wines were delicious. The portions were generous. Service was good too. A little further away in Aptera village, we ate more at The Cretan Corner. The scenic mountain views, food, wine and service was the best. The owner is very friendly and sociable. Finally, a great big thanks to Katerina, who welcomed us to villa Aladanos and ensured we had everything we needed. Should you need assistance, Katerina was at hand. We would also like to thank Katerinas mother, Olga for our lovely home made leaving gifts. It was a nice touch! We stayed for one glorious sunshine week, at the end of September 2016. Overall, we loved Chania, the beaches and the surrounding scenic villages.Villa Aladanos made for a relaxing retreat, which we know you will enjoy. Best regards David and Tracy Tyne and Wear UK
