Villa en pierre de luxe avec jacuzzi extérieur, piscine privée et meubles anciens

This is a lovely villa. Very large, lots of space for a large family visit like ours. Pool is excellent and there are lots of spaces for outdoor eating/relaxing including a wonderful bbq area (NB if eating outdoors wait until after sunset to avoid being inundated by flys - this is common to the area not just the villa). Air conditioning is very good in most rooms which are also very nicely decorated. There is plenty of parking for two cars (and a moped). There's only one electric gate zapper so you need to coordinate coming and going if you are in a big group. There's a small town about 15 mins walk down the hill called Plaka which has some nice little restaurants and a couple of well-stocked shops. Keep going down the hill another 20 minutes and you come to Almaridya which has loads of restaurants, a good butchers, a beach, several shops etc. The villa is in a very small village inhabited by locals but the immediate area is very much geared up for foreign holiday-makers and the vast majority of properties in the area are holiday rentals. This is good if you want to be close to amenities but if you're local for a secluded rural retreat you might be a little disappointed by the location. Our liaison at the villa - Manolis - was extremely helpful and a really nice chap. When we visited in August there were a lot of very aggressive mosquitoes (seemed to bite females more than males) so we recommend you take and use repellent including burners (all available in local shops). There is a very attractive mountain to the rear of the villa with an enticing track up to the top. If you're inclined to give it go then be warned the track is fenced off about half way up. There's a very nice swimming spot at Koutalas Beach which you can walk to if reasonably fit (about 1hr) or a ten minute drive if you're not (NB steep walk down to beach at the end).

The house and grounds are beautiful, the photos don’t do it justice. The pool was perfect, very well maintained. The property manager was on hand for anything including advice on local sights and to deliver fresh produce or homemade specialities. The immediate environment is not pretty, but not offensive and relatively quiet and the view of the bay is gorgeous.Access to the beach is about 15 mins by car, nearest well stocked shop about 5 mins and nearest Taverna around 7 mins. A car is essential.

This home was lovely with a beautiful yard and spectacular views. Manolis was lovely to deal with, responsive and very welcoming. The house is so great you will find it hard to leave.

We had a super holiday at Villa Kambia.

The villa is very well equipped and spacious, set in large grounds. We were a family of seven including a 4-year old and we all enjoyed our stay very much.

The villa has a great swimming pool ,outdoor areas, the added luxury of a hot tub and also a large lawn with football and volleyball nets so is ideal for family members of all ages. There are views of Souda Bay from the main bedroom and rooftop terrace seating area.

Manolis the owner was very helpful and actually provided eggs and fruit for us. There was a problem with the area water supply on one day but Manolis had water brought in for us even though it was a Bank holiday!

The villa is set in a quiet village but only 5 minutes drive from Plaka which has several good restaurants, and 10-15 minutes drive from the beachfront at Almyrida.

We recommend this villa without hesitation and will certainly stay here again.

Thank you Manolis for a great holiday!

Wow, the villa looks great here on the website but even better for real. On arrival we had a welcome pack which was just perfect given our flights were delayed and we'd not had the chance to stock up on route! The villas got so many great places to sit and chill out, dine with your family, have some alone time or be sociable... The indoor and out door space is perfect, and the villa was very well equipped and clean. The kids loved the pool that was kept clean all week. The local area is quaint and the locals incredibly friendly. Transport is a must if you stay here but it's only a 5 min drive to the local tavernas and 10 at most to the beach (we did walk to nearest taverna and it took about 15 mins in each direction with kids). Great villa, great hospitality and would happily go back again. We stayed late June 2018.
