A beautiful villa in a beautiful and peaceful location. Can't wait to come back again!
Villa Sfinari is the most beautiful villa, perfectly located on the west side of Crete for superb day trips to Elafonissi, Balos and Falassarna beaches. It has the most gorgeous pool, and peaceful surroundings, extremely clean and well kept. The hosts were incredibly helpful and supportive and helped make our family holiday with three small children a most beautiful and unforgettable experience for the second time:) Thank you Cretico Team :) Family Greyling
I did not want to write this review because I don't want to share this amazing house with others. I want to buy it!!! it's perfect and beautiful and tasteful. It's fully stocked, like a real house, for cooking and all comforts of a modern place. The views are amazing and so is the pool area. It is in the untouched village of Sfinari. The house is new, nice, comfortable, private and far above the standards of other vacation houses. I cannot recommend it enough. You will be lucky to get this house and to enjoy the amazing village of Sfinari and its wonderful restaurant, Sunset, and the very authentic places in town. Vasili is a super host and thinks of everything.

We stayed at the holiday villa for one week in May. Since we arrived quite late(after 10p.m.) Vassilis left the key at the door. Everything went smooth and he sweetened out welcome after a 3 hour drive from Heraklion Airport with a homemade delicious greek dish in the fridge from his wife. The next days we met and he gave as some useful tipps where to go for dinner/lunch and what to see. The villa and the pool where great and matched exactly the information/photos given at Cretico. We had a wonderful time and are looking to come back when we are in Crete.
This villa in Sfinari was absolutely stunning in all aspects! We stayed as a family with small children and had the most amazing time. The pool was terrific and made lasting memories for all of us. Whilst the local beach was within walking distance and also supported a very nice restuarant providing excellent fresh fish dishes, we were also perfectly located for day trips to Balos, Falassarna and Elafonissi beaches. Our host was incredibily firendly, helpful and determined to make our stay as enjopyable as possible. Upon arrival, a wonderful lunch was cooked and prepared for us in typical Greek style - a local tradition in order to make hosts feel welcome upon arrival. Cleaning services arrived in the middle of our stay and once again were ready to attend to any needs. We look very forward to our next visit and would very much like to return again. Thank you Vasilis!
Response from Vasilis: Dear Garth, Tanja, Claire, Connor, Thank you all so much for your preference in our house and your very kind words. I was pleased to have you as my guests and would be glad to host you again in the future! My sincerest wishes to all of you! Until next time, VasilisBeautifully designed villa, immaculately clean in stunning rural location close to wild and little-used pebble beach and three more popular tavernas . One of three villas on the site, but nonetheless private and the neighbours were quiet. Full fridge and welcome meal very much appreciated. Small store nearby meant this villa ticked all the boxes for us and the mosquito screens on all the rear doors provided added comfort at night-time. However, some appliances in the villa are starting to show their age: during our 6-day stay the upstairs air conditioning was under-performing, the downstairs Jacuzzi didn't work at all and on the last day the lock on the rear patio door failed. The owner also imposes restrictions on wifi usage, which should be made clear on the website.
The villa exceeded all expectations - it was absolutely beautiful, light & airy with top quality kitchen appliances & bathroom fixtures. The swimming pool area was wonderful with an amazing view of the sea beyond - perfect for watching the sun go down with a glass of wine. We had a fridge stocked with drinks and food on arrival, which was much appreciated, thank you. 5 star luxury - we hope to return!
