Short break

We had a wonderful time staying at the Villa Poseidon, fabulous villa, wonderful location, fantastic views and great communication with Nikos when we had a couple of issues. The pool area was great and cleaned daily, clean linen and towels were available on demand. Plakias village was an about a 5 minute drive and had everything you need with lots of tavernas to try and supermarkets, bakeries and meat market to stock up your supplies. All in all a super place to holiday

Good but windy

Good property in a nice location. Was very windy when there which lasted the whole 14 days. A known phenomenon in the South. Was difficult to eat outside some evenings because of this. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Nice villa

We enjoyed our stay, although there were very windy days or very hot days. The villa is nice, but might be updated. The fridge, freezer and airconditioning were not always working, the bathrooms are quite old and the couch is not really comfortable to sit on. The swimming pool and sunbeds are perfect.

Very good rental house

Beautiful villa, great pool. You just need to be aware that it is a very windy area; the house is well designed (walls protecting the pool) but you can’t eat outside or enjoy the lovely roof terras when the wind is blowing (which was more than half of our stay) I’d recommande to fix the showers which you have to operate by hand. But we had a wonderful time in this beautiful house The area is great ; Plakias is a lovely seaside village c, nice restaurants ; there are plenty of uncrowded beaches where the water is clear (great for snorkeling) Service is five star : immediate reply to all requests before and during the stay. A very good experience !

Go to the vrbohome pagevrbo-logo Poseidon Villa

The villa is situated about an hour and a half from Chania airport. The journey is easy but there is a short period of an off road track just before you get to the villa. The villa was exactly as it looks in the pictures. The owner Nickolaos was absolutely lovely, he made sure we had arrived safely and had left a few essentials at the villa for us on arrival. He was available for any questions or requests we had and was so prompt with the responses. The village is literally 6 mins away with restaurants, bars and a number of supermarkets. The only issue we had were really strong winds most days which blew through the picturesque mountainswe were situated in. Lovely holiday

A great stay in a comfortable luxury villa

We were looking for some quiet days away from the big resorts. In Villa Poseidon we were happy to have a lot of space, our private pool, all while being near interesting sites to visit. Plakias is only 7 min drive away, and there are convenient shopping possibilities. We recommend the Fish monger who has limited offer, but all fresh and reasonably priced. Ideal for cooking a nice dinner in Villa Poseidon!

Hôte très agréable il nous a apporté une énorme moussaka fabuleuse. maison sympa, piscine et jardin au top ! Nous avons eu 3 jours de vent très très fort c'était gênant car énormément de bruit. Des plages à proximité mais pas possible avec le vent. Maison un peu isolée dans la colline donc SUPER CALME.

Schöne Außenanlage und tolle Lage

Die Außenanlage und der Blick auf die Berge ist wunderschön. Draußen sitzen, grillen und chillen war einfach toll. Alle drei bis vier Tage kam der Poolmann und reinigte den Pool. Man konnte ihn auch immer ansprechen, wenn etwas nicht funktionierte und er reparierte es sofort. Auch Nikos war telefonisch immer erreichbar und half, wo Hilfe nötig war. Am Kücheninventar fehlte es ein wenig - scharfe Messer, Brettchen, Schere, Grillzange, Schnapsgläser, Schüsseln haben wir gekauft und hoffen, dass sich die folgenden Gäste darüber freuen. Das Haus benötigt über das oberflächliche Putzen hinaus dringend eine Grundreinigung. Die Lage ist super: es ist nicht weit nach Plakias, zu wunderbaren Sandstränden und guten Tavernen. Alles in allem ein erholsamer, toller Urlaub.

Amzing view, quiet location nearby everything you need

Nous avons passé 10 jours complètement relax. Nikos nous a super bien accueilli, plein de petites attentions et de bons conseils. Tout est prévu pour vous accueillir, de la bouteille de vin au café en passant par des fruits, du lait....la maison est spacieuse et la description conforme à la réalité. . Les salles de bains ne sont pas ultra moderne's et meriteraient un petit upgrade. Le canapé n'est pas le plus confortable. Les lits eux, ainsi que le linge de maison sont parfaits. La localisation ee la villa est top si vous chercher le calme. Les extérieurs sont magnifiques. La piscine est entretenue discrètement tous les 2 jours. A noter qu'il y a énormément de vent. Le seul point négatif selon nous est la propreté. Pas mal de poussière et ménage assez superficiel à notre arrivée mais rien de catastrophique. Nous recommandons la villa et le service de location de voiture associé.

Vielen Dank für den tollen Urlaub!

Sehr schöner Außenbereich, geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Haus. Zwei "kleine" Bäder für 6 Personen wären für unseren Geschmack etwas knapp, jedoch zu dritt völlig ausreichend. Das gesamte Team rund um die Vermietung war sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Für die Gegend ist ein Mietwagen empfehlenswert. Mit dem Auto ca. 5 min entfernt befinden sich sehr gute Restaurants und schöne Strände. Insgesamt sehr zu empfehlen!!!

Very Nice villa. 10mm from a very beautiful beach (Damnoni), 20mm from Preveli monasterio and 10mm from shopping in Plakias. You can see some sheeps around near the villa. Nice place, well equipped : it's just missing some covered in the kitchen.

Ruhige Lage

Das Haus entsprach der Beschreibung. Wer Ruhe und Entspannung sucht, ist hier genau richtig. Weit ab von allem Trubel der Touristenstädte, kann man hier herrlich entspannen und wieder "runter kommen". Der Kühlschrank war mit dem Nötigsten für die ersten Tage gefüllt. Das haben wir auch schon anders erlebt. Sowohl der Gebäudeservice, als auch die Vermietung konnten wir jederzeit kontaktieren, wenn es Probleme gegeben hätte. Die gab es aber nicht, so dass wir unsere Ruhe hatten. Jederzeit wieder.

Villa très propre et conforme à l’annonce

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans cette villa. Très propre, l’installation s’est bien passée grâce à une communication fluide avec Valia et son équipe ! La villa est bien placé avec de très belles plages et randonnées tout autour. Beaucoup de vent dans cette partie de la crête mais l’agencement extérieur de la villa est bien pensé, avec des endroits très bien coupés du vent. Un wifi un peu plus performant aurait été un plus mais c’est un détail. Je recommande cette villa. Merci

Schöne Tage und schöne Villa ...

Die Villa selbst war sehr schön, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Schön angelegt, herrlich ruhig gelegen. Die Küchenausstattung könnte jedoch etwas besser sein. Leider waren wir im Juli dort, wo in der Region ziemlich viel Sturm herrscht, was wir nicht wussten und wohl unterschätzt haben. 85-120 km/h waren leider oft der Fall, was natürlich viel beeinträchtigt hat, von wegen draußen essen, etc. Als das Dach der oberen Veranda durch den Sturm teilweise einstürzte war sofort jemand vor Ort und hat sich um alles gekümmert. Egal wenn was war, es war immer sofort jemand da der sich gekümmert hat. Die Kommunikation mit der Agentur war ebenfalls top und total empfehlenswert!!! Danke liebe Valia!!! Die Villa würden wir wieder buchen -nur nicht mehr im Juli/August. Sie ist auf jeden weiterzuempfehlen. Wir haben trotz der vielen und sehr stürmischen Tage den Urlaub dort sehr genossen.

We had an excellent 1-week stay. The host was very attentive, kind and responded fast. A kind welcome present in form of a bottle of wine& fruit basket was much appreciated. The villa had a perfect size for our 3 generations (children, patents, grandparents). The children pool was an absolute hit and the reason for choosing this villa. Just remember to bring mosquito repellent😉one evening we had a private chef and it was really delicious local food and a very kind and informative chef.

Wunderschöne Villa

Das Urlaubsfeeling fing schon mit der Buchung und mit der Erstkommnikation mit Frau Valia Kokkinou an. Nach Ankunft auf Kreta setzte sich die hervorragende Betreuung durch Valia fort. Die Villa liegt wie versprochen sehr ruhig und man hat genügend Platz zum erholen und entspannen. Unsere Frühstück auf der Dachterrasse war mit Meer- und Bergblick. Der perfekte Start in den Tag. Der Poolbereich kann den ganzen Tag in der Sonnen genossen werden oder man liegt gemütlich im Schatten. Die Villa wurde zweimal in der Woche gereinigt. Das Serviceteam war sehr gründlich und sehr freundlich:-) Innerhalb von 10 Minuten sind mindestens 3 Strände mit dem Auto zu erreichen. Für wanderlustige Urlauber gibt sehr schöne Wanderrouten in der Umgebung. Wir waren als Gruppe von vier Erwachsenen für 12 Nächte in der Villa. Jeder von uns würde dieses Objekt wieder mieten.
