My husband and our 2 teenagers just returned from this lovely Oasis near Chania and we all agreed we could not have picked a better location or house for our visit. Not only is the villa stunningly beautiful and immaculate, but our host, Despina, was so incredibly welcoming and generous. From the welcome basket filled with wine, olives and other specialty items from Crete, Cretan bath products in the bathrooms, and the most amazing breakfast spread freshly prepared each morning by her chef, we felt like our every need was anticipated. She was so helpful in recommending beaches, towns and restaurants. She even reserved a table for us our first night. The house itself is so lovely. It has all the modern amenities but the thing we loved most about it was how it blended so seamlessly with the natural environment. It has great outdoor space with plenty of shady spots even during the heat of the day. We loved the pool, the sound of the cicadas, and the abundant fruit trees on the property. Some of the nicest beaches in Crete are within easy driving distance and the cute town of Chania is just a short drive away. If I could give this property more stars, I would because it is that special. Thank you Despina for making our stay so perfect!
