À propos de cet hĂ©bergement

★ Only for 2 ★ cosy stone villa, totally private, pool, near sea, WiFi, parking

Villa 'Sofas' is the perfect romantic holiday heaven. Open the wooden picket gate and step into the delightful stone paved courtyard, set behind the stone wall. The villa Sofa is built in warm honeyed limestone, and the old wooden shutters and ivy combine to create a wonderful building, full of character. Surrounded by mature shrubs, lush foliage and stone patios, it is easy to imagine you have stepped back in time. The swimming pool and outside barbecue area provide the perfect promise of fun filled days and evenings.
Step inside, through the old wooden doors into a delightful room laid with flagstones, old stone walls and a wonderful beamed ceiling. The beautiful stone fireplace has been used over many centuries. Throw open the wooden shutters and venture upstairs to the master bedroom and pinch yourself. What could be better than this?

Just a few minutes from the modern beach resorts of Maleme and Platanias, step back in time as you turn into the meandering lane that leads to the picturesque hamlet of Metochi, with a history dating back to the 1700’s, when Crete was still under Turkish rule. The tiny hamlet is laced with evocative stone walls surrounding centuries old buildings built in weathered limestone, with vine covered pergolas and lush gardens overflowing with jasmine and roses. It takes little imagination to evoke an atmosphere of yesteryear, whilst enjoying all the comforts of a relaxing luxury holiday.
Our villas 'Laina' and 'Sofas' – are both officially declared listed buildings, as traditional old mansions, dated back to the 18th century, entirely renovated in 2020-2021 and sympathetically restored to a level of luxury appreciated by the discerning traveler, seeking comfort in an environment which only an ancient building can provide. Each villa is totally independent, set within its own spacious and private stone walled courtyard garden with its private pool and private parking for both villas.

Perfect little gem of a getaway

An idyllic little villa in a beautiful setting with everything you could want for a comfortable, home from home stay (your own pet is even included in the shape of Baby the sweetest little cat!). The kitchen has everything you will need and the thoughtful addition of a large bowl groaning with fruit, a bottle of cold wine in the fridge and a little jug of delicious Raki makes it all the better! Upstairs there is a sumptuous four poster bed with the comfiest mattress and the en-suite bathroom is just lovely. One of the windows looks out over the pool and the sea beyond and offers a welcome breeze through the room. The gardens and pool are delightful with all the seating you could possibly need. Thank you Georgia and Dionysis, we hope to come back to stay in your beautiful villa and on the island again one day!

Wunsch erfĂŒllt

Unser Wunsch war es, einen erholsamen Urlaub zu erleben - genau der ist in ErfĂŒllung gegangen. Wir suchen jedes Jahr ein Domizil mit besonderem Charme, legen dabei Wert auf PrivatsphĂ€re in Ruhe, möchten jedoch auch ansprechende Restaurants / Lokale / Bars ... in der NĂ€he nutzen können. Außerdem sollte das Ganze in StrandnĂ€he sein. Hat alles geklappt. Die Ferienwohnung im ehemaligen Speicher hat unsere Erwartungen erfĂŒllt. Den Bildern im Netz ist nur hinzuzufĂŒgen, dass die RealitĂ€t schneller als die Aktualisierung der Homepage war - das Bad wurde inzwischen modernisiert, was ĂŒbrigens sicher kein einfaches Unterfangen war, da das GebĂ€ude unter Denkmalschutz steht und alle Änderungen - s. Deutschland - strengen Vorschriften unterliegen. Lage und Ausstattung haben uns sehr gut gefallen. Die Klimaanlage haben wir nicht benötigt. Unsere Reisezeit war im Juli, die Temperaturen immer ĂŒber 30 Grad am Tag, die NĂ€chte waren jedoch oft etwas windig, sodass sich das Schlafzimmer im ersten Stock bei geöffneten Fenstern als angenehmer Ort erwies (das lag bestimmt auch an dem fĂŒr unser Schlafempfinden sehr gemĂŒtlich ausgestatteten Himmelbett). Den Poolbereich haben wir natĂŒrlich tĂ€glich genutzt - WasserqualitĂ€t wurde regelmĂ€ĂŸig ĂŒberprĂŒft, Reinigung erfolgte mehrfach wöchentlich. Durch den natĂŒrlichen Bewuchs, der den gesamten Außenbereich in eine kleine Oase verwandelt, verirrten sich oft BlĂ€tter und Insekten im Wasser, aber das gehört nun mal dazu, wenn man nicht in einer BetonwĂŒste Urlaub machen will (außerdem ist immer ein Kescher zur Hand). In dieser Idylle haben wir natĂŒrlich jeden Morgen ein ausgiebiges FrĂŒhstĂŒck genossen. Wir sind vom Flughafen Heraklion mit dem Mietauto in die Ferienwohnung gefahren . Die von den Vermietern ĂŒbermittelte Wegbeschreibung per Foto war absolut hilfreich. Ebenso perfekt war die BegrĂŒĂŸung durch die Vermieter. Das hatte nichts mit einer dienstbeflissenen Einweisung in das GebĂ€ude zu tu, es fĂŒhlte sich fast an wie ein Willkommen fĂŒr gute Bekannte. Neben einem ĂŒberaus reichlich gefĂŒllen Obstkorb gehörten zur BegrĂŒĂŸung auch eine Auswahl lokaler GtrĂ€nke (Rot- und Weißwein und etwas Höherprozentiges) sowie Olivenöl aus eigenem Anbau und zahllose gute Tipps der Vermieterin bezĂŒglich unserer Vorstellungen, Land, Leute und Kultur kennen zu lernen. Das gemietete Auto und die beiden RĂ€der haben uns dabei gute Dienste geleistet. Badeschuhe mitnehmen, es gibt wenige SandstrĂ€nde, dafĂŒr Badebuchten fast fĂŒr euch allein. Sehr empfehlenswert

Cretan heaven

Villa Sofas is a genuine treasure. Located a short distance from the beach, it has privacy and intimacy . The flowers and birds are a treat. The hosts are knowledgeable, helpful and truly friendly people who want their guests to have a great time. Everything you need is at the house; a car is helpful but certainly not a requirement. We travel extensively and can easily say this house and hosts are exemplary. Don’t miss this one !!

Perfect spot to relax and enjoy Crete

Arriving at Villa Sofas is like stepping back in time. Georgia and Dionysis have created a great little retreat here, with a lovely pool and sunbathing area as well as a beautiful shaded courtyard. Both G & D were very welcoming and nothing is too much for their guests. The Villa is very well appointed with everything you will need for a relaxing stay and a great bathroom! You won't want to get out of the gorgeous bed. There is a bus stop within 5 - 7 minutes walk and the buses are every half hour in both directions, 10 minutes to Platinias and about 30 to Chania depending on traffic. There is a mini market opposite the bus stop and a supermarket around 15 minutes walk so a car is not necessary here. The beach is also a short walk away if you can tear yourself away from the Villa. If you want to visit this area Villa Sofas is the perfect place to stay.

Idyllic

We spent a week at the lovely villa Sofia and thoroughly enjoyed it. The villa is well equipped, lovely private gardens and pool. We hired a car but also used the local buses and the bikes at the villa. Plenty to see in the surrounding area then so nice to come back to peace and quiet and your very own pool. Would highly recommend and hope to return one day.

Wonderful secluded relaxing visit

The villa was perfect for the 2 of us. The 4 poster bed was so comfy & I loved having the mosquito net to save us getting bitten. The pool was small, but plenty big enough for 2. It was great being able to drink the tap water rather than having to buy bottled water - there was even a jug cooled in the fridge on arrival. It was also a nice touch to have a bottle of wine & Raki left for us. The owners Dyonisis & Georgia were very welcoming & helpful - suggesting beautiful beaches for us to visit. We also liked having cycles to use for the 5 minute ride (20 min walk) to local beach bars & restaurants. I would definitely recommend renting this lovely villa for a relaxing break - secluded, but plenty nearby to see & do. We hired a car which was useful, but there were bus stops nearby if need be. Previous visitors had left a selection of toiletries, sun lotion etc which we added to when we left - great if you're running short by the end of your hols. So pleased we found this little gem

Great location to chill out in peace and quiet

We had stayed the previous week in the centre of Chania town and Sofas Villa was a great place to spend our second week, in a completely different and tranquil location. The owners were responsive to the few requests that we had during the week and were very helpful with advice throughout our stay. All the equipment and facilities were first rate and the four poster bed was particularly comfortable. The pool was a god send for cooling off, and would be particularly appreciated by visitors in the hotter months of July and August. Would we return - most definitely.

Idyllic retreat

My wife and I stayed for a week in May 2018. We were looking for peace and quiet, unreserved sun beds and a private pool. Villa Sofa has this in plenty. Add to that the barbecue and cycles and I wonder how we managed to book it. The pictures on the web site give you a good idea of what it looks like but there is nothing to compare the experience when you actually visit. The hosts cannot do enough to make you welcome and we never managed to eat all the fruit provided.

Lovely Villa in quiet location

We spent a week at Villa Sofas during September. The villa was perfect, and Georgia and Dionysus were very welcoming and friendly. The villa is as good as the pictures and we were not disappointed. The BBQ and seating area are perfect for al fresco eating. The pool area is secluded and perfect for a cooling dip. The outdoor areas are surrounded by plants and trees, and add to the feeling of being in a tropical paradise. The kitchen is fully equipped; the bedroom has a large four poster, with mosquito net, which was very comfortable. The shower was modern and very good. We did not hire a car, but used the bus. The bus stop is 5 minutes from the villa with regular buses, every 30 minutes, into Chania. We hope to return, and would recommend Villa Sofas.

A Week in Paradise

Thank you so very much to our wonderful hosts Georgia and Dennis. The villa is stunning, a real home from home. Private, peaceful and luxurious. The owners have renovated the villa with taste and charm, the perfect mix of modern with traditional vernacular style. The villa is spacious, spotlessly clean and has everything you need for a truly relaxing break. We loved sitting in the sunshine on the enormous rooftop terrace during the day. In the evenings we lit the open fire and ate in the kitchen dining room, very romantic. The bed was so very comfy with the softest linens. Fluffy towels provided for the bathroom and for the pool. It was too cold to swim but we sat by the pool and dipped our legs. Pool is a really good size, clean and very inviting. The bathrooms are designed with quality and taste, with the most fabulous showers...we didnt want to get out! Georgia and Dennis were wonderful hosts, they had thought of everything. A fully stocked kitchen with herbs and spices, condiments, sauces. They left us fruit, vegetables, wines, chocolate, bread, cheese even candles ...amazing hospitality! They had thought of everything. Sunlotions, doedorant, fly spray, toothpaste, toilet rolls, ....so well planned. The villa is about a 30 minute drive from the airport, easy to find but we arrived late and lost our way in the dark so rang Dennis and he came out to find us...nothing is too much trouble for these lovely people. Mini markets, beach and restaurants a five minute drive away, perfectly placed close to amenities whilst being peaceful and quiet. Nothing to fault at all .....6 stars! We are looking forward to returning soon, Thank you so very much Georgia and Dennis for making our stay so fabulous, you are the perfect hosts, kisses for Baby the cat. Much love from Chrissie and Pete. xxx

A fantastic place to stay

We spent a week at Villa Laina - a recently upgraded house which was already beautiful before all the work has been done. It features 4 spacious bedrooms, 2 beautiful bathrooms and a new kitchen with all the necessary appliances and more. The pool is amazing and the kids spent a lot of their time there. What really sets this house apart is the hosts - Georgia and Dionysis. They take a very personal approach to their business. They were on call when we needed help, advised us on restaurants, beaches and other places to go. They changed sheets and towels even though it wasn't needed. They clean the pool and do all the necessary stuff with a smile. They prepared fresh fruit as a welcome present and provided us with a bottle of beautiful home made raki as well. We always felt welcome and appreciated. We are definitely coming back - the whole family loved it.

Remarkable stay with amazing hosts

Cannot say enough good things about Georgia, Dionysis and their lovely Villa. We are not touristy, so this was the perfect fit for us. Being able to get up and lay by the pool after a brilliant nights rest was fantastic. It took about a week to perfect my Greek coffee method and when coupled with pastries from a local bakery and the fruit that had been provided, it made for a perfect start to each day. The kitchen is well equipped to accommodate meal preparation to whichever extent you desire. The location is quiet and private, with the exception of a wedding being held up the street one night, and you feel safe and secure the whole time there. It is very easy to get down to the main road and catch buses from there when necessary. They are very proud of their home and have expended great effort in making it comfortable for their guests. Thank you both for making it available for our use! We have fallen in love with Crete and cannot wait to return.

Lovely , relaxing holiday in Villa Sofas

Georgia responded to all queries very promptly and was very happy to arrange a taxi from the airport to the villa.(This cost 44 Euro) Both Georgia and her husband, Dionysus, were very helpful and gave us lots of recommendations about where to eat around the area and in Chania and day trips to various beaches. Really pleasing touches were the enormous bowl of fruit, the bottle of Cretan wine, the jug of raki and olive oil which were left for us on arrival. We didn't have to buy any fruit all week. The villa is situated in a very quiet spot outside the village of Maleme. There are restaurants here, but there are much better quality ones in Girani, Platanias and Chania, which are just a short bus ride away. Inka supermarket is a pleasant walk from the villa. A car would be useful, but isn't necessary and it is good not to have to drive on holiday. It is much better to use public transport. The buses are great - clean, efficient, airconditioned, regular - and cheap. And they have conductors! It is two very easy bus journeys back to the airport at a total cost of 9.60Euro for two people. The villa itself is beautiful and very clean. The bedding and towels are changed on Tuesdays which is great. The villa is really well equipped with everything necessary for an enjoyable holiday, plus extra items like the dishwasher and washing machine. There is also WIFI, The villa is very private and not overlooked at all. The large bedroom is lovely. The bed is very comfortable and has a mosquito net, essential if, like me, you are susceptible to being bitten and react badly. The garden and patio area are beautiful and offer as much sun or shade as you want. We ate outside on the patio every day. The pool, although small, is perfect for cooling down. An extra delight is Baby - the resident cat - very friendly and at the end of our week - very spoilt! I would definitely recommend this villa and I would definitely return.

Wonderful!

Well, my wife and I are making plans for our anniversary and are reflecting back on what a wonderful stay we had at this villa, so I thought to write a review. We can't say enough about this little place! We stayed for five days. It has a relax, comfortable and peaceful feel. We felt settled in right away with the shaded patio, beautiful pool and the simplicity of the villa. The pool was nice to lay around in the morning before we drove to beaches or town. We had night swims, but the water was a little chilly. The kitchen had the essentials to make simple meals. The bed was comfortable. The property is off the main road a few blocks & is not in town, so a car is needed to get around. Beaches are nice and beautiful; there's a pebbly beach a few blocks away and sandy beaches are about 45 mins away by car. The villa got hot in the afternoon and at night, but Dionysus fixed the cooling unit as soon as we reported it & it was fine from there. The island has things to do, i.e., snorkeling, beaching, sailing, visiting Old Town and shops in town. Food in town is very good, Greek and other choices and we loved the Raki after each meal! Giorgia and Dionysus were wonderful hosts; they're very warm and nice people. They were attentive to our needs & explain where to find restaurants and things to do. They handed us the keys and gave us our privacy, but if we had questions, they were just a phone call away. They both speak English very well. We recommend this property to anyone who want a kick-back, peaceful and private time alone. Rob & Lynn

Perfect villa for perfect family holiday

Arrived 27 Aug - still here. This place is so lovely - it's got everything you need from electric juicer to milk frother, electric hob, fan oven. Georgia and Dionysus both speak brilliant English and can't do enough to help. We holidayed with our 3 adult children and their partners, villa never felt crowded, lounge area on roof, by pool, cool area with hammocks and shaded table area down stairs. Two kids arrived before us by taxi (45 €) Georgia took them to supermarket and waited while they did a quick stock up. Dionysus had time to chat and point out places to visit or eat at. Georgia even booked us into a really good fish restaurant (Argentina) we chose fish from the fridge it was the best grouper ever - 6 bottles wine, shared seafood platter to start and all the rest - cost 260€ for 8 of us!! - sea view- great evening, thanks for the recommendation and for making the booking and sparing our blushes on the phone with our poor Greek. The air con works - we put it on each eve as we went out shut bedroom doors and came back to a cool welcome! We brought a volley ball net and have had great fun playing in the pool - we will leave it, hope next visitors have fun (tie it to legs of blue director chairs! ) stock of lilos and things here too. Bbq is great had a couple, sausages from local supermarket are really good and we tried all of them! washed a couple of loads clothes - line and pegs at back of house. Dishwasher too, lots pots pans plates etc etc. Wifi works well, especially on patio area. Lots of English books, touristy stuff. Can't think of anything else that you might need to know, but I am going to give Georgia our phone number to pass on if any one wants a verbal recommendation. Otherwise, thanks to both of you for making our holiday so memorable for all the right reasons! Love Linda, Stephen, Sam, Stasha, Rob, Kristina, lulu and Chris xxx

Lovely house

We just had a fantastic 2 week stay in Villa Sofas : the house is all you need for a charming holiday as a couple. Very kind owners , always ready with information or help, a house in a quiet neighbourhood and with full privacy, we can not think any thing on the negative side. Well situated to have some daytrips as well. So we had the perfect relaxing stay !

Beautiful character property

Perfect little secret hideaway for two. Completely private patio and small pool. Was about 10mins walk to pebbly beach and a few nice Greek tavernas. We spent just over 4wks here; hired a car and visited some amazing places and ate some of the best food we have ever eaten. The Owners are very hospitable and lovely people. Truly recommend if you're looking for peace and quiet.
