Amazing Villa

This is a beautiful villa, very modern and perfect for a family holiday. The pool isn’t too deep and is the same depth throughout so perfect for children. The views from the villa are stunning and we would recommend staying in this villa. The owner is also lovely and very helpful if you need anything.

Fantastic holiday villa

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Villa Gaia. The villa was clean and spacious with fantastic outside space. It was in a quiet, rural location however was still convenient for local restaurants, supermarkets and the beach and there were many things to do within an hour’s drive (including the airport). Zacharias was a generous and kind host. He insisted on meeting us at the villa despite us not arriving until after midnight. I would highly recommend a stay here.

Wir hatten einen so tollen Aufenthalt. Wir kamen leider etwas später als verabredet, weil wir Probleme hatten mit den Mietautos. Wir kamen dann an und wurden herzlich empfangen. Die Mama hat für uns Essen gemacht - einfach lecker! Es gab sogar Obst und Kuchen. Besser geht’s nicht. Wir wurden herumgeführt und haben uns gleich wohlgefühlt. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen. 5 Sterne PLUS gibts von uns. Die Lage der Villa ist auch super! Man ist in 20 Min oder 30 Min zu Fuß in tollen Tavernen, in 10 Autominuten am Strand. Einfach super

Wir durften einen unvergesslichen Sommerurlaub in diesem traumhaften Haus verbringen. Und es war ehrlich gesagt der beste Urlaub, den wir je hatten.Schon bei der Ankunft hat uns der überaus herzliche Gastgeber Zacharias begeistert: Der Kühlschrank war liebevoll mit dem Nötigsten gefüllt, inklusive eines selbstgekochten Essens, das einfach köstlich war. Eine Geste, die wir nach der späten Anreise sehr zu schätzen wussten. Überhaupt war Zacharias während unseres gesamten Aufenthalts stets erreichbar, hilfsbereit und immer verfügbar: ob bei der Organisation eines Transfers oder mit wertvollen Tipps für die Umgebung.Das Haus selbst ist ein wahr gewordener Urlaubstraum: modern, stilvoll und mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet. Wir haben mit unseren drei Kindern perfekt abschalten können. Sei es am wunderschönen Pool, beim gemeinsamen Kochen in der top-ausgestatteten Küche oder am Grill und bei gemütlichen Abenden auf einer der mehreren Terrassen. Es fehlt hier an nichts – von gemütlichen Sitzplätzen im Freien über einen Grillplatz bis hin zu mehr als genug Platz für alle.Die Lage ist ideal für alle, die Ruhe und Authentizität suchen, aber nicht ganz ab vom Schuss sein wollen. Das kleine Dorf hat einen wunderbar entschleunigten Charme, und gleichzeitig ist das lebendige Rethymno mit seinem Hafen, den Stränden und den vielen Einkaufsmöglichkeiten nur ca. 20 Minuten entfernt.Wir sind voller Dankbarkeit für diese wundervolle Zeit und können das Haus zu 100% empfehlen!

Quiétude totale dans sur le hauteurs de la Crète, mais assez proche toute fois des plages et des commerces. Et que dire de notre hôte qui nous aura accueilli avec un diner 100% préparé maison, tout ce qu'il faut pour le 1er petit déjeuner, et nous aura même offert un petit souvenir au moment du départ.

Wunderschöner Aufenthalt

Wir waren Anfang September 2024 in der Ferienunterkunft und es hat uns so gut gefallen. Alles war sauber, sehr schönes Haus in einer ruhigen Lage mit Blick aufs Meer und abends sieht man die wunderschönen Sonnenuntergänge. Wir kamen erst spät abends dort an, aber selbst um 10 Uhr abends war der Gastgeber persönlich vor Ort, hat uns alles gezeigt und erklärt und hat uns sogar mit selbst gebackenen Abendessen seiner Mutter überrascht. Auch für unseren Sohn gab es Spielsachen vor Ort und der Pool war für ihn - und uns - natürlich ein Highlight. Der Gastgeber war immer freundlich und nett und man konnte Ihn jederzeit erreichen. Vielen Dank für die tolle Zeit vor Ort - gerne wieder :-)

Super Aufenthalt

Wir hatten zehn super Tage im Haus Gaia! Ein geräumiges Haus, schöne, funktionelle Zimmer, die 2 Bäder sind etwas klein, aber für uns ausreichend. In der Küche ist alles vorhanden, auch Spülmaschine und Waschmaschine, was für uns immer sehr wichtig ist. Saftpresse für frischen Orangensaft. Der Pool sehr sauber, regelmäßig gereinigt. Das Grundstück fast un einsehbar, mit einem herrlichen Fernblick und Meerblick, liegt nur knapp 15 Minuten vom Strand entfernt, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten gibt es jede Menge in 15 Minuten Entfernung. Zwei tolle Tavernen in der jeweils 1 km Abstand, da kann man locker hin laufen in einem kleinen Abend Spaziergang. Man braucht natürlich ein Auto, hat da einen super Ausgangspunkt für viele Unternehmungen, Schluchten, kleine buchten und Strände und vieles mehr. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen. Die nächst größere Stadt, Rethymnon ist nur 20 Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt, auch wunderbar zum bummeln oder einkehren in „Old Town“. Der Gastgeber, Zacharias, äußerst freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir waren zu sechst in dem Haus, wir Eltern mit drei Töchtern 14,20 und 24, eine mit Freund.

Maison idéalement placée pour visiter l'ile. La maison de Zacharias est extrêmement confortable avec un équipement complet pour toute la famille. On s y sent très bien. Tout y est et si vous avez besoin de quoi que ce soit vous pouvez compter sur Zacharias. Il est au petit soins pour vous. La maison est décorée avec grand soin, "comme dans les magazines" . Elle est très lumineuse en journée. Les lumières extérieures et intérieures illuminent la maison le soir. L'hygiene est impeccable. Maison adaptée pour personne à mobilité réduite. mon papa est resté au rez de chaussée dans la chambre du bas. Il a fait le tour exterieur de la maison car adaptée pour le fauteuil. La climatisation est dans toutes les pièces si besoin. Les pièces sont vastes. Plusieurs terrasses à l étage permettent de se poser et d admirer le paysage mer et montagne. L'accueil de Zacharias est exemplaire. Gentillesse , douces attentions sont au rendez-vous. Sa maman nous a cuisiné de bons plats pour notre arrivée. Bref,aucune hésitation vous faites le bon choix en réservant la villa gaia.

Lovely stay and exceptional hosts

We were a party of two families, four adults and four teenage children. The property is around 20 minutes from the coast and cars are a must but this was perfect for us as we prefer to stay in quieter areas. The pool is great and would be ideal for younger children too as it is not too deep and all one level. The villa is modern but traditionally furnished and well equipped. The beds are quite firm which was fine for most of us, but one has a bad back and found the bed too hard. However the hosts went above and beyond and sourced a mattress topper for us. Zacharias and his family are wonderful hosts, very welcoming and happy to help with any questions. On arrival they had prepared a delicious meal for us and a homemade cake . It was very special and we wouldn’t hesitate to return.

incredible Villa with super friendly host

The villa is as advertised. Everything you need and more is available in the villa. The pool is nice and you have an incredible view of the sunset. One thing that impressed me the most was the hospitality of the host. The host's mother cooked a whole meal for us (7 people!) free of charge because we arrived late in the afternoon and she was afraid we wouldn't have anything to eat. I have never experienced anything like that at a holiday destination. For my birthday, Mr. Zacharias even bought some sweets. Again, super friendly! He didn't have to do that. I appreciated that very much. I can only recommend the villa and Mr Zacharias. Cheers Arne

Fabulous Break

A beautiful late September week for 2 to recharge and our first post-Covid trip. Great weather and a very comfortable place to relax in. We mainly cooked for ourselves and the villa has most of what you need with supermarkets in Stavromenos 10 minutes back down the road. The wifi is fast enough that you won't notice any issues and Netflix and Amazon Prime are available on the Smart TV (you will need your own subscription though). Swimming pool was refreshing and the local cats very cute! The owner Zacharias was simply the best. An extremely tasty dinner was waiting for us on arrival and he dropped in with a couple of other treats during the week and was always available on the end of the phone to answer any queries. Thank you for all your help! If you need a rapid antigen test for return travel then numerous places are available in Rethymno and the process is simple at approx €25 per person. It felt so good to sit with a glass of Cretan wine and watch the superb sunset from the upper balcony and remember the joys of travelling. Highly recommended location, villa and owner! Just book it!
