The perfect dream house.....also the private beach was awsome....snorkling everyday, sunset, infinity pool with a fabulous view....the challenge was to leave the house to go visiting!
Absolutely Fantastic! The place was gorgeous. We had a perfect stay. The host, Maria was 11/10. It was like having a personal concierge. She made reservations, organized transfers, made fabulous suggestions and was a delight. The house is perfection. The views are stunning. The private beach is gorgeous. The house had everything we needed and more. We highly recommend. You absolutely need a car there.
Absolutely amazing. Zero complaints. The house was wonderful. The location is gorgeous ... the views from the house are truly inspiring. We had the seclusion we were looking for while still having access to a grocery store only a few minutes drive, and it was a great launching point for exploring the western end of the island. Semi-private access to the cove was a super perk. I snorkeled every morning and it was as good or better than every other location I snorkeled on the island.
Maria, the property manager, is a superstar. She was super helpful to us in planning our explorations, and went out of her way to make sure we had everything we could want in our stay (yoga mats, power converters, local spinach pies!!, etc, etc). Thank you, Maria!
The villa is perfect, the view is spectacular, it's private and secluded. It is about 25 min walk on foot to the village (uphill but fine for average fit ppl). Kitchen is very well stocked for cooking/bbq. It was nice to have plenty of dishwasher tablets and the laundry gel. Car is recommended, taxis are quite pricey in the area. We were able to enjoy "our" beach on 4 days out of 7 when the sea was calm, on other days there was too much surf so we didn't risk it. There are also some public beaches close by. It should be noted that one of the 3 bedrooms has less privacy than others as it is in the mezzanine of the open plan space. This was not a problem for us though. Maria is super helpful with the local recommendations and was checking with us regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. Thank you very much.
Diese Villa übertraf all unsere Erwartungen. Wir wurden aufs herzlichste von Maria begrüßt und fühlten uns vom ersten Moment an willkommen. Die Villa ist traumhaft gelegen, der Blick ist spektakulär. Sollte es einem doch an etwas fehlen, so kann man jederzeit sich an Maria wenden und einem wird umgehend mit tipps und Insiderwissen geholfen. Alles ist sehr sauber und bestens gepflegt. Wir kommen auf jedenfall wieder und freuen uns Zeit an diesem zauberhaften Ort , verbringen zu können.
Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt mit einem Atemberaubendem Blick. Der Pool war traumhaft und Maria war eine wirklich tolle Gastgeberin.
Uns hat der Urlaub in diesem Traumhaus sehr viel Freude bereitet.

Vacances parfaites grâce à cette villa.
Where to start with Villa Vraskos.. sensational. We have stayed in a number of villas in Greece on different islands and Villa Vraskos was certainly the best, as was Maria the property manager.
The views are incredible, location Is convenient and the property is well equipped. The private beach is an experience in itself walking through the wild path to reach it. If you like to snorkel this is a great base. Nothing was too much trouble for Maria, she organised a birthday cake and decorations for our son, sourced us the best tables at the best restaurants and was a delight to deal with.
If you are considering Crete as a holiday destination do not hesitate to book Vraskos Villa you will not be disappointed.
My family and I stayed at Villa Vraskos, and had an amazing stay. The Villa is gorgeous, and the pictures do not lie - beautiful layout with amazing sea view and great pool. Location was off the beaten track, but close to Chania, Kalyves, Almyrida and we had a great time at those more low key but beautiful beaches.
The best part of our stay was Maria, our personal concierge, who organized everything to make our stay as comfortable as possible, like lunch and dinner reservations, tips for sightseeing, organizing our sailing trips, massages and personal cook. She was super attentive, and made our vacation so much more enjoyable and amazing.
Highly recommend Villa Vraskos for your vacation in a fantastic design villa!
