Perfect Holiday
Sometimes I don’t want to put good reviews because then it will get booked up when I want to come back :) If you read the description and it’s what your after then look no further. Everything was exactly as we wanted for our holiday, we like a bit of privacy and having a place to ourselves when we want to relax. Local tavernas not far away by car and shops with the essentials a 5 minute stroll away. Alexandra was on hand for any questions or advice for things to do and we can’t wait to return.

Wonderful villa in a great location
Just back and wishing we were still there. 1891 Home is a lovely spacious villa with an infinity pool and amazing views out to sea. Quite a remote location which we liked, but only five minutes walk to a couple of small supermarkets, tavernas and a bar. We arrived late at night but the key was in a secure location for us to gain access and Alexandra had left enough essentials and treats to keep us going for the first few days which was a lovely gesture. Everything you will need is there. You will need a hire car though, we had one delivered to the villa on the first day from Auto Club in Chania, dropped it off at Heraklion airport - would also recommend. Would highly recommend this beautiful find.

Beautiful property. Perfect location.
Kefalas is an authentic Greek hilltop town well located for a great holiday. It's a 2 hour drive from Heraklion Airport and less than half that from Chania. The town has great views inland to the White Mountains and out to sea over the Mediterranean. It has a couple of fabulous and inexpensive tavernas and a couple of small supermarkets - all walkable and all with the wonderful Cretan charm and welcome. 1891 Home is spotlessly clean, beautifully designed, very well equipped and well positioned. It is a special place for sure. Alexandra was very responsive throughout the booking process, greeted us on arrival and provided some great ideas and information on things to do. She also provided a generous and thoughtful welcome pack of beer, wine, cheese, milk, Cretan specialities and more. Really lovely. In fact the whole experience across the whole week was lovely. We can't wait to go back.

Stunning!!!!!
Just got back yesterday. We had an amazing time. Just off the beaten track but with 3 lovely local tavernas to choose from if you don’t want to drive. Amazing views and the villa is absolutely immaculate! Everything we wanted and more. We highly recommend this villa, one of the best we’ve stayed in! Lovely friendly people you just can’t go wrong 😀👌

Lovely character property with homely feel
We have just returned from a wonderful weeks' break in 1891 Home. The sensitively modernised property has a homely feel and plenty of space to relax in. The terrace and pool areas are outstanding and a great place to while away the day. The extra effort made to supply provisions, including home made items was really appreciated and they tasted great! Alexandra the host was very welcoming and easy to communicate with and made every effort to make our stay comfortable. We thoroughly recommend it.
