The Villa is located in Aspro, a traditional Cretan village with narrow stone streets, great views and paths to walk which is located on a hill in the Apokoronas and its only 2 minutes from the sea and nearby villages with tavernas and more.

The closest living area is Almyrida , which is located (23km east of Chania city) on the south shores of Souda Bay and it is a very quiet resort with all basic amenities such as restaurants, cafes, mini-markets and superb sea. Another living area nearby is Kalives village (5 km away) ideal place for your holiday with all facilities (restaurants & cafes, super markets, bank, pharmacies, doctors, shops, fuel stations etc.) and its amazing beach.

Close to the villa you will find several sandy beaches that you should visit. One of the most popular beaches in addition to the nearest beach of Almirida and Kalives is Kiani Akti beach, a very well-organized beach with crystal clear waters and plenty of water sports and services, around 7 km away.

Fabulous in every way

From the moment we booked the villa to the moment we left on our last day, we experienced excellent service. We enjoyed all the benefits of being part of a well-run hotel complex, but with the privacy of our own villa. Thanks to Kostas who responded to all of our pre-arrival questions and requests with speed and efficiency. Kostas kindly arranged a taxi to meet us at the airport, this arrived on time and the driver was waiting in Arrivals as promised. We noticed that the Villa website offers a grocery shop, so took advantage of this, due to our 11 pm arrival to the villa. Waiting at the Villa was Olga, who needs a special thank you. All the shopping and snacks were waiting for us, which was a real welcome treat. Olga did a quick but comprehensive introduction to the property. This allowed us to quickly settle and relax. There were a few issues, nothing that spoilt the holiday, but Olga was always on hand to sort whatever out. A testament to excellent customer service. We locked ourselves out a safe, a door came off its rails and the AC broke in one of the bedrooms. These happened on different days, but as soon as it was reported, either Olga or Workman was around the same day to fix it. Nothing was too much trouble. We were happy to see that they took cleaning so seriously and the Villa had a deep clean, new bed linen and towels every 3 days. One of the group was very ill one day and was transported to hospital, Olga and Edit from the office were there to support us. We couldn't have asked for any better service. The Villa was just as you see in the pictures. On many occasions you are fooled by old photos with other locations, but not with Villa Blanche. What you see online, is what you see in reality. The location is perfect if you want quiet. The walk into town is about 20min. Just long enough to work up an appetite and to work off a good meal. There is nothing about the holiday, Villa, or location we would change. It suited everyone in the group - Adults and Children. Would definitely visit again and it Villa Blanche wasn't available, would definitely consider another Villa in their portfolio, knowing that we would be well looked after. Thank you to Kostas, Olga, and Edit for a lovely holiday.

Great Villa - But Limited Outdoor Eating Space

We were a family of 9 Adults staying in this lovely villa. The furnishings, linen and facilities in the villa were all of a good quality, and the place was very clean. All the rooms had integrated air conditioning which was essential as temperatures rose to the low 30cs when we were there. We were warmly welcomed by the lovely housekeeping staff, and the fridge was stocked with water, beer, cold meats and there was fruit, cake and coffee waiting for us, which was a lovely touch. The bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and fully equipped with storage. We could contact the management team at any time via WhatsApp or by a concierge telephone system which was very useful. We were a short 5 minute drive up the hill from the local town?village and we were pleasantly surprised by the quality and range of restaurants and cafes on offer. The beach was small, rather grubby in places, but adequate with cheap sun beds to hire. We did go to the Blue Flag in the neighbouring village, and this was beautifully clean with crystal clear water. We were ideally placed for venturing up in to the hills or further along the coast to visit some of the port towns. Our only criticism was the lack of sociable outside eating space, and lack of food storage and prepping areas in the kitchen. Although there is s dining space raised up at the back of the pool, it is only partly covered, and there was no point in the day when all 9 of us could eat in comfortable shade. In addition, the are is surrounded by plants that make the space very claustrophobic and once everyone is seated it is impossible to leave the table without everyone moving for you. The outside table is large and cumbersome with awkward legs that make seating 9 (let alone 10) very uncomfortable. We are a family who only get together a couple of times a year - we love cooking and eating together - and this did impact on our holiday. We spent a lot of time moving tables and chairs and umbrellas to try to accommodate us all comfortably down by the pool. Likewise, the kitchen table is only really designed for 8 (the villa can accommodate 10) - we hate eating inside on holiday - even for breakfast so this wasn't an issue - but its worth bearing in mind. One issue was the kitchen/living room. Once we had done our big shop, we realised there was nowhere for storing food except the fridge. There was also a lack of comfortable seating for all of us in the living room when we all came in to get away from the sun.

Luxury stay in an amazing island!

We had a great time at the property! Everything is new and luxurious. It is exactly how you can see from the pictures. The villa is clean, the appliances are new, all the rooms are stylish and comfortable and the swimming pool is just perfect. The owner is always available for any request and so is the agency. They also organised a dinner as per our request, and it was perfectly done. We loved it and the amazing Crete just did the rest. Highly recommended!
