Krissa Villa, 4 BD, Private Swimming Pool, BBQ

Krissa Villa is a beautiful spacious house located in Sfakaki, a seaside village on the north coast of Rethymno just 9 km away from Rethymno city. Surrounded by a lush garden including a 40 m² swimming pool and a BBQ area and just 400 m walking distance from the nearest beach, Krissa Villa is the ideal holiday home for couples, friends and families.

The space

Interior
Krissa Villa is decorated in a minimal contemporary style with traditional Cretan elements. The recently renovated 186 m² two floor house can perfectly accommodate up to eight people. As you enter there is a large open space area including the kitchen, dining room and living room. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the necessary home appliances and utensils you may need to prepare delicious meals which you can then enjoy at one of the shaded verandas overlooking the pool. We provide our own extra virgin oil, homemade jam and honey as well as Cretan wine and raki to our guests. Fresh fruit and vegetables from the garden are also available. In the comfortable two sofa sitting room you can relax and enjoy your favourite films, play games or even light up the cozy fireplace. On the ground floor there is also a bathroom as well as a queen bedroom with access to a balcony above the BBQ area.
As you walk up to the second floor there are three more comfortable bedrooms, one of them with two single beds as well as two bathrooms with complimentary organic shampoo and shower gel by Korres. There is also a gym should you wish to keep fit during your holiday. You can enjoy beautiful sea views and majestic sunsets from one of the three verandas on the second floor.

Exterior

The large private surrounding grounds are the perfect peaceful oasis in which to relax, have fun and enjoy the sun. Featuring a lovely Mediterranean garden with beautiful orchards and a spa-including 10x4m swimming pool with a sundeck area complete with comfortable sun beds and shade-providing umbrellas, the villa’s exterior also includes a BBQ area with a fully-equipped kitchen and a traditional wood stove together with a spacious alfresco dining area overlooking the pool. The entire area is fenced and monitored by cameras to provide maximum security.

The entire villa and its grounds are private and at your disposal; they are, however, taken care of year-round by a lovely and discreet couple (Mimis and Mary and their dog Ector) of locals living in a separate basement studio. The two of them can provide you with any help needed and valuable local information. They are there to assist you and take care of the house.

Beautiful stay
We have just spent a beautiful week at Krissa Villa. The location is perfect for the beach, only a 5-10 minute walk away. 5 min walk away are a couple of tavernas and a great supermarket for everything you need. When we arrived, Mary and Mimis were there to greet us with a huge box of homemade lemon and walnut cake! The Villa is beautiful inside and out, everything you would need in the kitchen is provided including washing up liquid, tea towels etc. the fudge was stocked with milk, juice, bread, eggs, cheese, yogurt and more which meant we didn’t need to rush out and get some shopping. The air con works well and gets very cold which was much needed! The pool is fab and we had brought our own inflatables, but there were some which had been left by previous occupants. Being able to sit on the upper terrace to eat breakfast with the view down to the sea was such a lovely thing every day! Mimis and Mary were around during the week, maintaining the pool early in the morning etc, but they just blended into the background and were in no way imposing at all. They did however bring us a huge half of watermelon one day, and several baskets of fresh figs! I would absolutely recommend this Villa to anyone, you’ll have a fabulous time!

Wonderful Crete holiday
We had a wonderful time staying at Krissa Villa, all communication was excellent, the location was lovely, near to local amenities but quiet and very easy access to get anywhere on the island we wanted to go to. The family were wonderful hosts bringing us delicious cretian food every now and again. We loved our visit and highly recommend this villa and family. Thank you.

Excellent location, beautiful house, outstanding hospitality
We booked this beautiful house for 11 days of holiday for our family. The booking process was smooth. Eleni helped us in an outstanding way before, during and after the holiday - also with additional needs (like airport transfer). The house is as beautiful and practical as described. We enjoyed the separate bed-/bathrooms, the well-equipped kitchen, the terrace with beautiful view and of course the pool. Mary and Mimis made sure we felt welcome in many ways - actually we almost felt like family. Overall, this was a very pleasant holiday; it looks like we will come back at some point. Thank you!!

Awesome hosts and villa!
We just returned from Crete after having spent a week at Krissa Villa. We were 3 families (6 adults). With only one available online review, we decided to go with what we saw in the photos and description. We're glad we did! When we arrived at the villa, at 11:00 PM, the fridge was packed with the next day's morning breakfast (eggs, yogurt, home made jams from Mary's orchards, fresh bread, cheese, coffee etc.) and a full tray of sweets. It was such a pleasant surprise. The next day we were welcomed with another tray of home-made sweets. The house is very spacious, clean, and fully equipped. The villa's grounds have lots of olive trees and an orchard with various fruit trees. If you need something, Mary and Dimitri will take care of it right away. Although the beach is within minutes, we spent a lot of time at villa's pool which was periodically cleaned. During our stay we also asked Mary if she would cook for us traditional Greek food and she made Greek chicken with rice pilaf (enough for 2 days) and gemista (stuffed eggplants, bell peppers, zucchini and tomatoes) with barbeque chicken. Both super delicious! I highly recommend this place and the hosts. They definitely made our stay more enjoyable than we expected.

Wunderschön! Wunderbar! Wundervoll!
Das Haus und der Garten sind wunderschön. Innen geschmackvoll eingerichtet und sehr sauber, Garten- und Poolbereich sehr gepflegt. Wir hatten eine liebevolle und aufmerksame Betreuung. Online über Eleni, vor Ort von Mary und Mimis. Uns wurde nicht nur eine Autovermietung vor Ort empfohlen, sondern auch Tipps für Einkäufe und Restaurants gegeben und der Transport vom und zum Flughafen organisiert. Und als wir mal erwähnten, daß wir abends Bridge spielen würden, bekamen wir am nächsten Tag sogar eine grüne Filzdecke für unseren Tisch. Mary brachte uns Köstlichkeiten aus ihrer Küche vorbei. Mimis sorgte im Hintergrund für die Sauberkeit des Grundstücks und bereitete zudem den Grill für uns vor. So verwöhnt wurden wir noch nie. Nicht nur tolle Vermieter, sondern wunderbare Gastgeber, die uns einen wundervollen Aufenthalt ermöglichten! Danke dafür.
