First holiday in Crete
A secluded Villa situated about 35 min drive from the nearest beach. 3 big bedrooms upstairs and two downstairs with a large living dinning area, we would of liked a comfy TV sofa for those evenings where you just need to recover from a day out. The pool is only 1,2m depend and not as big as it looks in the photos but still nice to cool off in when sunbathing. Overall a nice Villa and the manager will go out of his way if anything you need is missing, for example a toaster for breakfast. Arrived the day after I asked for one. Sea was really warm on the North side but quite cold on the South side of the island.

spacious and private village house
Welcomed late at night with a homecooked meal which was delicious . The villa is spacious and made private by high stone walls and wooden gates . The pool is a good size but very cold brrrr .Outside space is great for alfresco dining and bbqing Sunbathing around midday around pool area and afternoon sun can be found by bbq area. The kitchen is well equipped with masses of crockery , cutlery and glassware . Athough lack of a tin opener did present a challenge one evening ! Bedrooms are clean and again spacious . Bedlinen and towels were changed twice during our two week stay , along with a clean up in the bathrooms kitchen and pool area . Plumbing problems in 2 out of 4 bathrooms irritating . Dripping taps , toilets not flushing, shower curtain rails insecure , shower head holders not working . Aircon unit in one bedroom did not work . Others were absolutely fine and quiet too . Remote location demands carhire . Never found taverna serving any food in village ?? . Must visit Preveli beach ,Evita bay ( in Bali), lake Kournas , Rethymno .Melidoni Caves. Don't bother with Knossos not worth 15 Euros , seems to be a tribute to Stanley somebody who excavated the site . Overall we had a fabulous holiday in Crete and the villa was a welcome evening venue .The people here are so welcoming , friendly and keen to help .

Plenty of space and friendly owner
We stayed at Saris villa for a week and we had a great time. There was plenty of space in the villa for 12 adults and the bedrooms were large and the beds were all comfortable. The first night we arrived very late however Mr. Saris greeted us with delicious food and drinks to get us settled in. Furthermore the villa manager was also very accessible and answered our quires in a timely manner. We also received a very well put-together document about the island prior to our visit which we found to be very useful. The kitchen is very well equipped and we had no issues preparing meals for 12 people. We found that the description of the equipment available in the villa on the website to be very accurate. You will need to have your own car. The nearest supermarket is 15min drive down the hill and the nearest town with restaurants, beach, activities etc is Rethimno which will take about 35min from the villa. This would have been a five stars review but for the small maintenance work that the bathrooms need. Overall we had a fantastic stay and would recommend it.

A hidden gem
Villa Sarris gives you a taste of real Cretan life and is a slice of pure magic. We arrived late at night and starving, dropped in the road with our suitcases in the middle of a village celebration. We found our way into a hidden jewel of a villa with hot, home cooked food waiting for us like a fairytale. The owners had missed us as we were later than expected but soon returned to make sure we were clear about everything in the property. They were always on the end of a text to answer queries and I would recommend the home cooked food which is available to be purchased and delivered to the villa. The accommodation is spacious and as listed, the pool and outside eating area saw a lot of action as did the balconies which command interesting views. We rented excellent, flexible cars through Valia K's contacts, she was most helpful in answering the many questions we had in the run up to travel. We were a mixed party of extended family of all ages, with young children and teenagers as well as adults. There is plenty of space within the property and grounds to either spend time together or find personal space. A car is necessary to explore the surrounding area but gives you the flexibility to explore copious beaches along with the mountainous interior. Be warned that mobile sat nav can peg out in the Kriti mountains leading to some long but interesting detours, involving in our case ploughing gently through a funeral cortege of hundreds of mourners along a one car width village mountain track. One of the pluses of hiring a villa off the beaten track was the plethora of much cheaper food available in mountain tavernas, do take advantage of this! Our other top tip would be to make the trek to Lake Kournas where there is excellent boating and kayaking for all the family. This was an excellent villa, good value for money, suitable for those looking for a quiet stay off the beaten track. The locals are friendly but unobtrusive, inviting us to theatrical performances taking place in the village hall opposite. Stones and Lockyers.
