We stayed here for 10 days and had a lovely relaxing holiday. The Villa is in a quiet location but it is easy to get to the beach and Kournas Lake by car. Our host Politini was super helpful and very easy to reach, her Dad also has a great supermarket in the village where you can pick up any shopping you need including his delicious olive oil.

The Villa was great as described and expected. The location is perfect beaches nearby, chania is nearby. The Host is a just a really wonderful man simple and so friendly, he have got his own supermarket where we have bought all what we needed in our stay, he had surprised us with Greek Moussaka that his wife cooked for us . My family was very happy there and they wanted to stay more. When i come back again i will plan to book another time there. Thanks for the good hospitality.

Beautiful villa in walking distance to the little village Vryses. From the house you have a breathtaking view over 2500 meters high mountains in the distance. I got a little bit of the same feeling as when staying in Tuscany or Provence. The owner runs a small supermarket in the village and help you with everything you might need during your stay. Even if this inland, the sea is only 10 minutes away by car. You can then enjoy the quiet countryside and at the same time visit the beaches. We really recommend this house and the area.

Comfortable and spacious villa with tremendous mountain view. The villa is just a 5 minute walk from Vryses’ main square where you will find restaurants at the river and grocery shopping. Without a car it is perfect for relaxing, cooking at home or walk to the restaurants in the village. If you rent a car it is the perfect starting point for visiting Crete’s many attractions or drive to other small villages for lunch or dinner. Only 10 minuts by car and east of Geogiourpolis the beaches are beautiful and quiet. We had breakfast at the lower large terrase with splendid view of the mountains and then we had Sun downers at the top terrase. Pool area was comfortable with enough chairs and both sun and shade. The owner and his family run a small supermarket in the village. We went there to get local cheese, fruit, vegetables etc for our stay. They are very friendly and near by if you have questions or need anything. It was worth every Euro and Cent :-)

Wij hebben samen met onze drie tieners erg genoten van ons verblijf in Posarelli Villas. De woning was brandschoon en heeft alles wat je nodig hebt voor een ontspannen verblijf. Politini, de dochter en huisverantwoordelijke, verwelkomde ons heel hartelijk en alle communicatie verliep heel vlot. Deze woning is een goede uitvalsbasis om de charmante kustdorpjes en het ruwere binnenland van Kreta te verkennen. We zouden deze woning zeker aanraden!
