Wonderful stay

We have had a wonderful time at Christine and Gilles villa. Communication before and during our stay was extremely helpful. Hannah was there to greet us upon arrival providing lots of information about places to visit. We received the most generous welcome package we have ever had! The villa was beautiful, high up on a hill amongst olive groves, very private with spectacular sea views. The children loved to play in the pool every day. Thank you very much for making our stay so special. We hope to return one day.

Villa Edem *****

Villa was absolutely perfect with everything you could need. Pool beautiful and clean. Surrounding garden lovely, perfect for barbecue and ‘eating in’ nights. Shops and restaurants short drive away and the people were so friendly everywhere we went. Great communication with owners and Hannah who was always available to help. Would highly recommend this villa and Crete!!!

A fantastic villa with scenery and heated pool

We had a fantastic 9 days stay at the villa with family, my kids of 8 and 11 years old. Beautiful villa. Close to all the amenities. We felt like home at the villa. The pool was heated and we enjoyed the pool even when the weather was in 18-20 degrees. Owner Christine and Gilles were really helpful . Hannah who was looking after the villa was really helpful with all the needs. I would recommend this villa to anyone who loves to have a quiet holiday. Thanks Girish

Beautiful villa

We have just spent 10 days in the beautiful Villa Edem . The villa is better than the pictures and the pool is wonderful. The villa has everything you could need and more for a peaceful safe getaway. The main town is only a short drive away with lots of shops restaurants and beaches. A perfect stay.just make sure you have your own data for gadgets as it’s difficult on the island in certain places.
