A truly exceptional Villa
Villa Aroma surrounds you with beauty. The gardens overflow with well manicured flowers and grass, the house is architecturally beautiful and functional, the enclosed property is well-lit and secure, and privacy is maintained. The location is 2 minutes walk to a local market and 5 minutes walk to downtown Agia Marina (where tour bus stops are located). The house has two very large and well equipped kitchens. Several small and large gathering areas are found inside the house - giving a large family group (we had 11 persons) ample room to move around indoors without crowding each other. We were able to have the entire family swim in both pool areas comfortably. This villa was serene, comfortable and relaxing. It was a joy to return to it at the end of a long day sightseeing. The beauty of the Villa was enhanced by the excellent service and reception we received from the owner George. He makes sure to stock the refrigerator on the day of your arrival as well as provide a personal guided tour of the property and its amenities. A private chef is also available if requested. He avails himself via phone if any questions arise, he is quick to respond and makes the renter feel like a priority. George is a wonderful host - he truly wants your family to enjoy your stay in Crete and Villa Aroma. Staying at this property really was the best decision we made for our stay in Crete.

Amazing villa!
We had a fantastic time staying in this brand new stylish villa. Attention to detail by the owner George is spot on. Air conditioning in every room, two amazingly equipped kitchens, lovely spacious bedrooms and fabulous bathrooms . Outside in the lovely spacious garden, there's two stunning swimming pools, one of which is quite large, both with plenty of comfortable sun loungers and daybeds for relaxing. There really is nothing bad I can say about this villa which is more than big enough for a large family or maybe 2 families travelling together. George was very welcoming and friendly when we arrived. He had kindly stocked the fridge with plenty of essentials and even bought us fresh eggs from the family chickens. He also gave us lots of advice on good local restaurants both in Agia Marina and further afield. The location of the villa is very convenient for local shops, restaurants and the beach - all within a very short walk. George was helpful and attentive without being over intrusive. All in all we had a fabulous holiday and would not hesitate to recommend this amazing villa. Thank you so much George!

Fantastisk opphold i et herlig hus
Vi reiste 3 vennefamilier og hadde ønske om et hus som både hadde god plass og gode fasiliteter hva gjelder basseng, soving og matlaging.
Hos George er alt tilrettelagt for et fantastisk opphold.
Jeg kan ikke få fremhevet hans ønske om å bistå med skape en minneverdig ferie for oss nok.
Han hjalp oss med booking, råd og service på en fantastisk måte. Dette er helt klart den beste hosten jeg har bodd hos uavhengig av land. Mottakelsen var svært god, huset hadde alt vi hadde behov for, 2 kjøkken, playstation, 2 basseng og god beliggenhet.
Tusen takk for et flott opphold!
Anbefales!
