Unbeatable!

There are not enough words to describe how fantastic this villa is! Plenty of space for 11 of us (6 adults and 5 kids), lovely clean pool, great location, plus Mano the owner could not be more helpful. We will hopefully be back!

Eine Perle mit wunderschönen Berg und Meerblick. A pearl with beautiful mountain and sea views

2 weeks fun and relaxation. Outstanding service. Manousos is a great host. Answers and supports immediately. Thanks to helpful guidance we could discover fantastic places. 14 persons had enough space. We‘ll certainly come back to enjoy the nice house, area and the beautiful Island.

Great villa, perfect host

We had a wonderful week in Crete. Manos communicated with us in advance and provided an essentials shop which was a godsend as we arrived late. The villa was easy to find and Manos met us there despite our late arrival. It easily accommodated our 2 families of 4, the kids had a room each. We cooked most nights and the kitchen was well equipped. Manos gave good recommendations for meals out also.The villa was spotless and it was great to have a midweek clean with sheet/towel change.The views of the mountains are lovely. It’s only a 10 minute walk to a huge sandy beach. The pool area is great and the sundowner patio was well used. We all loved playing volleyball.We would highly recommend the villa. Thankyou Manos!

Simply Great!

We had a wonderful vacation here! Manu is very eager and gives great tips. Whether good food or great destinations. The house was also very great. Clean, neat and the pool was wonderful. We hope that we will make it again in this accommodation 👍

WHAT AN AMAZING STAY!!!

First of all, the villa was just beautiful, clean and perfect for our large group of friends and young kids. It had everything, very comfortable, clean and was perfect for the kids (aged 3 to 7 months old). Second, our host Mano - WHAT A HOST!!! He made the trip even better, he really looked after us and was so accommodating and helpful. I couldn't recommend him and his Villa more!! I am defo coming back next year!! Thanks Mano!!

Incredible

Our stay was absolutely faultless. The owner Mano is so attentive and was so kind to us before and during our stay. Even with 15 of us we had so much room in the villa. It was clean and spacious. Thank you Mano for making our trip memorable!

Great time with the whole family (4-84years)

We had a great time with the whole family (4-84 years) in the house! Mano and Gaby were very helpful and wonderful hosts who were always immediately responsive when help was needed. We especially enjoyed the outdoor area with the wonderful pool, table tennis and beach volleyball area.

Big Fat Greek Family Vacation

We were a family of 13 ranging from 7 to 77. The house was set up beautifully. Open enough for the whole family, but the 2 apartments made a little alone time possible. Mano gave us great suggestions for dinner and daytime activities. He made himself available if we needed anything. Amazing time had by all.

I cannot say enough about the property manager. He went out of his way to welcome and make us as comfortable as possible during our stay. The area is fantastic with a plethora of authentic tavernas and great beaches. The property itself has a great pool and all enjoyed the facility. With a large group like ours, it was the perfect property.

Beautiful Villa

Stayed for a long weekend with friends. The Villa was well equipped, looked great and has beautiful views. The best thing about the Villa is Mano who went over and above to help us book local dinners, taxis, help us out when the shops were close on a family day (Greek Easter Sunday). He is extremely generous and a very welcoming and kind host. I highly recommend staying here in a beautiful spot in Greece.

Safe, well driven and perfect place!

Fantastic place, perfect for our stay ! We were 3 families, 6 adults and 7 children, no problem getting room, airconditioned beds and barbeque facilities for all. 10 minutes walk to the beach and restaurants,would recommend at least one car for morning shopping etc, two supermarkets 5 minutes (car) away. Gaby is very responsive, polite and full trustworthy. So is Mano, lives close and is the perfect host, without being intrusive. If you want the safe, private yet still full supported Cretan stay - go for this place! All thumbs up!

Georgioupolis Beach Resort Heaven

An absolutely stunning villa with everything you could possibly need for a fantastic holiday in beautiful surroundings. The location is fabulous just outside of Kavros Beach to be peaceful and have great mountain views but close enough to the tavernas and shops to stock up on goodies for the fantastic BBQ. We were a family of 10 with youngsters 20, 40 & almost 60 yr olds who all had a fantastic time with not one of us wanting to leave. Mano & Gaby really looked after us and keep the place spotless and are very discrete but extremely friendly. Can’t recommend this place highly enough and we are sure to visit again soon. Thanks for a lovely relaxing break👍🌞

Great stay, great house and excellent service

We were three generations on a family trip (from 2 years to 70 years), staying at the house 1 week in early October. What you see in the advirtisement is what you get :) All bedroms were of good size, clean and with well-functioning air condition (which is important when you are from Norway, like we are) Pool area is excellent! Sun all day on the pool, and also good opportunities for sitting in the shadow in the sitting group area (for those preferring that). Close proximity to grocery store and a very nice beach, well suited for both children and elderly. Mano was truly an excellent host. You can truly feel that it's important for him that all visitors have a best possible stay, and he responded within minutes when we had questions. Also good recommendations on where to go, boat trips etc. So I can give my best recommendations!

Family-friendly holiday home

We had a lovely holiday in this beautiful and well-equipped house. There was plenty of space for both social gatherings and alone time for the extended family of 16, and several good outdoor areas for shared meals, relaxation and activities. Both the pool, the volleyball court and the table tennis table were used extensively. The covered seating area by the pool was lovely when the day was at its hottest. A very pleasant host contributed to top experiences. We received good information and suggestions for activities and restaurants in the local area. He organized an unforgettable barbecue evening to celebrate a family anniversary. He also put us in touch with a provider who arranged a fantastic private boat trip for us with sightseeing and swimming from the boat. We can recommend this holiday home warmly!

Don’t hesitate to book this house

We were a group of seven friends. We were all looking forward to a memorable trip to Greece, and we really enjoyed our stay here. The house was very comfortable, clean, and had everything we needed. The pool was beautiful. We had a day mid week that we decided to just hang by the house and enjoy the pool. It was so relaxing... Gaby and Mano could not be better hosts. They introduced us to someone to set up a trip to the Samaria gorge. They also recommend GREAT places to eat. My friends asked them to set up a breakfast as a surprise for my birthday, they did an amazing job. They made our stay a great one.

Large Family with teens

We were 3 families with 15 people staying in this lovely home. The home is actually 2 separate units both with their own kitchens. We were very comfortable, and our teens particularly loved the outdoor amenities of the pool and volleyball net. The views are amazing- if you look one way you see the sea and the mountains the other way. We hired cars and drove to the beach that is within a 5-10 minute drive. We also loved the town surrounding the lake. We found this location to be ideal as we were close to the beach but could also drive about 45 minutes to Chania in the evening. Mani, the owner, and Gabi, manager, were always available to answer questions. Highly recommend, and we would certainly stay here again.

Fantastic property with amazing host

We were a party of 14 family members ranging from 6 months to 74 years old. The property suited us exactly and we were so comfortable. On our (very late) arrival we were met at Chania airport by a minibus arranged through the host Manousos - more about him later - and taken straight to the villa where we were met and shown all the facilities. What an excellent villa - over 2 floors with ample space for everyone to feel relaxed. 3 bedrooms on each floor plus 2 bathrooms and 2 en-suites. Plenty of crockery and cutlery. And of course the place was spotlessly clean throughout. We stayed for 10 days and had an interim clean and change of bedding towels etc. Plenty of towels for the pool area which was a delightful place witha big gazebo area for shade. We could not have been more pleased with the villa but the real star was Manousos himself - what an amazing host. From 1st to last he was so very helpful, not only around the villa but also booking restaurants and organising minibuses to get to them, suggesting the best beach bars and generally being super friendly and helpful I can honestly say that without the help and advice from Manousos we would have had a pleasant but ordinary holiday which he made absolutely delightful with everything he did for us I would not hesitate to recommend this amazing villa and wonderful host

Fantastic Family Holiday Villa

We had been trying to visit this villa for 2 years (delayed by the Covid pandemic) so were so pleased to arrive and find that the pictures we had been looking at for so long matched our expectations and more. First Gaby with her pre visit communication and then Mano and his new wife were excellent hosts. Mano was always available to help, giving us information about the surrounding area and activities as well as making sure the villa was clean and we were having a comfortable stay. Even his wife providing us with freshly baked doughnuts! My whole family of 15, with ages from 6 to 82, had such a wonderful time. The pool area is fantastic for all and sitting by the pool whilst the kids swam and I chatted with my sisters whilst looking at the beautiful surrounding hills is a memory we'll cherish. The colourful lights of the pool after dark were also fab. The villa is away from town so was quiet which suited us great. Although my 82 year old Mum had to be driven to town, it was close enough for most of us to walk to the tavernas in Kavros and even Lake Kournas. The rooms were excellent and we had plenty of room for our family of 15 with the kids on bunk beds or on the sofa beds. There were plenty of places for meals or to sit and chat, around the pool, on balconies or at the back of the property where there was an excellent BBQ area. The kids just loved the pool, ping pong and volley ball area. Would thoroughly recommend! Thank you Mano.

Villa and moussaka heaven

We, a family of ten, three generations ranging from age six to over seventy, spent two weeks at this beautiful villa. There are spectacular views of the mountains on one side and the sea from the rear of the property. Our host Mano met us on arrival and showed us around the spotlessly clean and very well-appointed villa, offering tips on where to visit and eat. The villa is two apartments joined via the entrance hallway providing ample areas for privacy if needed. Two large ground floor terraces, one wrapping around the side of the villa and three balconies in addition to the shaded area near the pool. The volleyball court and table tennis table were well used by all members of the family. Throughout the two weeks nothing was too much trouble helping us book minibuses and even providing a delicious homemade moussaka by his wife Maria – the best we had ever tasted. The villa is kept in excellent condition. Bed linen and fresh bath and pool towels were changed regularly during the two weeks. Toilet rolls, washing powder, dishwasher detergent and washing up liquid were all provided. The pool area is wonderful – out twin granddaughters aged six by end of week one managed a length without assistance and by the end of week two were more competent swimmers than their grandmother. We thank Mano again for providing such excellent service and his team for keeping everything perfect.

A first class family holiday

The house is spacious and very well appointed and equipped throughout. The gardens at the front of the house are lovely with an excellent swimming pool and terrace areas for sunbathing. Very good parking for maybe 6 cars. The back has a small garden with a very good BBQ, and great patio area where all of us (15) could enjoy dinner. In future there appears to be plans for some development close to the back of the property which might not enhance the view. The house is within walking distance of the very long beach, though we discovered that a short drive to Mike's Oasis was the best area for beach activities. The local village of Georgioupolis was interesting with a number of reasonable restaurants. Above all, our host Mano was first class, attentive and on call when needed. We would have no problem in visiting Villa Georgioupolis Beach Haven again.

Wunderschönes Haus in perfekter Lage

Wir waren für 12 Tage mit insgesamt 11 Personen (8 Erw. und 3 Kinder im Alter von 1 - 4 Jahren) in dem Haus und hatten eine wunderbare Zeit. Das Haus ist genau wie auf den Bildern zu erkenne und beschrieben. Es ist sehr groß und es fehlt an nichts. Auch die Außenanlage ist sehr großzügig und alles sehr modern und neu. Auch ist alles sehr sauber (Handtücher wurden zweimal gewechselt und einmal wurde das Haus komplett gereinigt). Der Strand ist fußläufig in ca. 10 - 15 Minuten erreichbar. (Hier können wir die Vanilla Beach Bar sehr empfehlen). Ganz in der Nähe ist auch ein Süßwassersee und Supermarkt, beides ist mit dem Auto in ca. 5 Minuten erreichbar. Wirklich hervorheben müssen wir aber noch Manousos, unseren Vermieter. Ein supernetter Kerl, der wirklich immer verfügbar und bei Fragen immer gleich zur Stelle war. Von der ersten Kontaktaufnahme bis zum Ende war die Kommunikation einfach super. Er war sehr zuvorkommend und hat alles dafür getan, damit wir in seinem Haus eine wirklich tolle Zeit verbringen konnten.
