Ria was an excellent host. We felt welcomed from the start. The Villa was beautiful. We found the home to be clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The pool was pristinely kept. Ria even provided us with a few small locally made gifts. The bedding and towels were of good quality. The beds as well as the indoor and outdoor furniture were comfortable.

I’ll start by saying the villa is fantastic with a full kitchen. Lots of plates, cups, cooking utensils etc. Everything including the pool area was spotless. The area is not loud, it’s a peaceful area.I have travelled a lot and used VRBO and other sites over many years and Ria the host was outstanding from booking to greeting us to when we left. I have to give big shout out for her help and assistance.Some lovely restaurants in very easy walking distance .If you don’t have a car then to get into the nearest town of Kissamos cost 10 by taxi . From the airport to villa 120 and return to airport 75. Again the host was most helpful.Loved it and would go back again most definitely .Thank you

A small piece of paradise
We were drawn to the villa by the photos and the view from the balcony and this did not disappoint. Also Ria was fantastic at communication and the property had many 5* reviews . We were delighted that the three local tavernas were so wonderful - each unique and very welcoming . The bread van was a highlight for us and something we were looking forward to . Nicholas was just wonderful and his bread , pizzas and donuts were delicious . We visited local villages and beaches (Elafonisi and Falassarna) getting up early to beat the crowds ; but we were always pleased to be back at the villa to our favourite beach ! Finally a big thank you to Ria who was fantastic in her communication and welcome . She was so accommodating offering us the villa slightly earlier as it was available on arrival . This made a big difference to us as we so happy to get to the villa and relax . The villa has been beautifully designed and everything has been thought of with great attention to detail . Thank you also to Ria for the delicious desserts she so kindly bought for us .We are fortunate to travel often but have never been so relaxed and happy . We will return .

Paradise
My husband, 19 and 17 year old sons and I stayed for 13 peaceful nights in Villa Posidonia. Our parents are from Greece and we have visited Crete many times. This was our favorite stay yet! We loved sitting on the balcony with our wine listening & looking at the sea, sitting by the pool every morning with our coffee, tiropitas & bougastas from Nectatrios the baker. We loved every meal at the taverns on our street (Porfira was our fave-Vangelis & Stella were wonderful) and the beach steps away. Ria, our hostess, was absolute sunshine. We needed to rest and recharge and that we did. I would say it's more for our age group because our older teens wanted the night life of Chania from past trips. If you have a car, Chania is only thirty minutes away. But for us, it was absolutely what we hoped for. We walked everyday, swam, ate, talked with warm people in the village, went to Kissamos each day for an outing (lots of great coffee shops and taverns there as well, great little shops, wonderful people). My husband and one son would jog and come across great little cafes. I can't say enough good things. The house was spotless, the rooms were comfortable, bathrooms clean and comfortable, we could use the washing machine easily, we loved the outdoor seating on the balcony, on the patio covered in front and the lounges at the pool. We're dreaming of going back already. A heartfelt thank you to Ria and everyone we met there for making us feel so welcome, true filotimos and agape.

Visit to Crete
My husband and my adult three daughters traveled to visit the island of Crete. We decided to stay on the western side of the island first, and were fortunate enough to have found the Villa Posidonia. Our host Ria was very kind and left us some very nice local treats. The villa was immaculately clean. The location was perfect for what we wanted to do. We traveled to the Samaria Gorge. Multiple beaches as well as taking advantage of our beach right near the house. You can walk to two fabulous little taverns to get wonderful meals. There are also many wonderful restaurants nearby. We are hoping to make it back to the same spot in the future. You would not be disappointed. The views from the balcony are beautiful.

Stunning Villa Peaceful Location
We would highly recommend this villa and Nopigia as a perfect holiday destination . Ria and her daughter are wonderful hosts. A modern villa with charm and all the luxury facilities you need within metres of the beach and local restaurants. The photos are a true reflection of the actual villa itself. It’s the extra special touches that raise this villa head and shoulders above others. A generous welcome pack with fresh fruit, fridge items,local toiletries and cleaning products. A baker than delivers hot fresh bread and pastries every morning, 4 restaurants within walking distance serving home made food and freshly caught fish. A sand/pebble beach within metres, coves with large pebbles and rocks 10 minutes walk away and Balos beach and Falasarna easy to drive to, or go by ferry. The setting is very peaceful,listen to the waves and watch the sunsets from your pool or balcony in total comfort.
Thankyou Ria

Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful time here. Location is great for having a quiet time while being just 10 minutes away from night life and action. The description and pictures are 100% accurate. The beach is pretty much in front of the house, we could see and hear it from the upper level and outside on the ground level, just as promised. The water in the sea was super clean and clear, very calm and quiet in the mornings, with nice breeze in the evenings. The pool is good to have during the hottest time of the day. The grounds and house itself are very well maintained and comfortable, with twice weekly cleaning and change of linens. Enough space in the living room or on the patio to get together (there were 6 of us) but also providing place for everyone to have some alone time. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need if you want to cook some meals yourself. Ria is an amazing host. Warm and welcoming, discreet and considerate. She helped with provisioning for the first day and brought some treats and gifts during our stay, which was an appreciated nice gesture. We stayed for two weeks and didn’t want to leave! Highly recommend!

This property really is as gorgeous as the pictures on the site. Our entire crew went wow when we walked in the gate. It is spacious full of light and plenty of room for everyone to have their space.
You have a lovely view of the sea, even though the is 1 home between you and the sea.
The cafe and tavern down the street are delightful.
The beach is rocky, yet 5 feet out the sea floor is sandy.

Pamper Yourself at this amazing Villa
This property has all the high-end amenities you could ask for while away from home and is conveniently located between Chania and Kissamos. You'll also be pampered with the daily delivery of fresh pastries/baked good by the local bakery (the "bread man") just outside the driveway of the property - we enjoyed having a fresh pastry while sipping our morning coffee poolside! The hostess provided excellent restaurant and local site recommendations and responded immediately to any questions we had. . . .my only regret was that we didn't stay longer!

My husband and I stayed at the beautiful Villa Posidonia last week and had a fabulous 5 day stay. The traditional stone built villa is perfect, great location, spotlessly clean and comfortable and has everything you could possibly need. Set a few meters back from the beach it has amazing views of the sea and mountains and has a totally private garden with a beautiful pool, its quiet, relaxing and has the sun all day. Ria the host is so kind and helpful and made us feel extremely welcome when we arrived and had even provided provisions such as milk, fruit, orange juice and of course Raki (an acquired taste but is the local drink in Crete) for our arrival. Ria also baked for us during our stay...... we felt very spoilt. We both loved Crete and will definitely return again to stay in this wonderful villa. It was like staying with a friend, thank you Ria xx

Fantastic and relaxing break!
This was definitely one of the best villas we’ve stayed at in terms of quality of finish and facilities. It’s been beautifully handcrafted and there’s everything you could need to self cater and have a relaxing break. Ria was the perfect host - greeted us on arrival and provided a welcome pack which was great after our journey. She popped in with a delicious warm cake later that week and gave us recommendations of restaurants. She also gave us a heads up on the cleaners visit - which was also a lovely bonus to have fresh sheets and towels midway through our week.
There are 3 lovely restaurants within 5 min walk. We ate at all of these and each was great.
It is 2 minutes from the main road so simple to find.
The neighbourhood is pretty quiet ... but only 5 min drive into Kissamos town with more shops, cafes, restaurants.
Our favourite thing was the local baker coming to visit the village at about 8.30 every morning. He had warm bread, biscuits, cakes - such a lovely man too!
No hesitation in recommending this property if you want a chilled out relaxing break in a quiet area of the island.

Wonderful Villa
My husband and I and two children (ages 9 and 5) had a wonderful holiday in August at Villa Posidonia. The villa is in a beautiful spot over looking the mountains, opposite the sea and it is peaceful and totally relaxing! The villa is clean and furnished to a high standard with everything you should need. The outside area is just as good and we enjoyed lots of days lazing around on the comfortable sun beds while the children enjoyed the swimming pool. The location is fantastic - you can walk to some lovely local restaurants and by car there are so many places to go and see (beach, water park, Chania old town) and lots of restaurants in only a short distance. Lastly, Ria the owner is just so welcoming and helpful - we felt sad to say goodbye after 2 weeks! We will definitely return and would recommend 100%!

Stunning Villa in a beautiful beachfront location
We stayed at Villa Posidonia at the beginning of August. The villa is beautiful and spotlessly clean. It had everything you could need and more. The pool area is amazing, with luxury sun loungers and plenty of shade if needed. We enjoyed spending many late evenings relaxing in the outdoor seating area. There are 3 lovely beachfront restaurants within a 2 minute walk from the villa which we dined at most evenings watching the sunset! The beach is practically at the end of the garden and is only used by the few beach villas and locals. Although it is very hot in August there is always a lovely breeze. Ria the owner of the villa was very welcoming, helpful and always available if you needed her. We will definitely be recommending this villa to our friends and family.

A peaceful paradise
The Villa is exquisite not a thing to annoy , spotlessly clean and every consideration has been provided . Spacious and comfortable and set within its own private space and garden with a sparking pool and only steps from the beach with several traditional tavernners within a short walk along with a beach-side bar which often has live Cretan music none of which disturbs the tranquility of the villa . The owners live next door and Ria your host is kind and attentive as well as discreet . Kisamoss the local town is 6kms distant and has a wide range of shops and supermarkets , it is a charming place with some tourism and a large variety of restaurants and bars in the centre and along the seafront but mostly a working place that supports the local rural economy . There are some great days out locally including the ruins of the ancient city of Fallasarna and its amazing beach , Chania the local regional centre is a 30 min drive and is totally enchanting , set around a horseshoe harbor the Venetian and Ottoman buildings add history and charm alongside a fortress and surrounded by a warren of narrow streets occupied by pretty restaurants and boutique shops .
Crete , legend tells us is where Zeus was born and when you see the mountains and gorges wild untamed and unoccupied it all starts to make sense , sublime and awesome in the real sense and along the beach at sleepy Nopigia there is a holiday dream that we will visit time and time again

Incredible holiday!
We loved our stay at the villa, it really is as beautiful as the photos. Ria is a lovely host and so helpful while not being at all intrusive.
Location is good, straightforward from airport and good for exploring north west area. Would recommend a car.
We loved Crete in April, the beaches were beautiful and quiet. We loved Falassarna which was just under half an hour away with parking nearby. Elafonissi was about 50 mins away, well worth the drive, beautiful sand and clear water. Balos beach is stunning and quite an adventure to get to. The last 7km road is a bumpy dirt track which takes a while and then it is quite a trek down, our 5 year old was ok but we did walk back up late in the day so not too hot - the views are amazing though and it’s definitely worth the effort. In summer it would be hot and I would do the boat trip instead, these were not on in April. We also went to the botanical garden which was lovely and had a beautiful hill top restaurant. We loved our holiday and would definitely return, Crete was really beautiful in April we were lucky with temp 21-25c perfect for us we stayed 7 night and would have loved a few more! Thank you Ria :)

Villa was superb, we could not have wished for anything more. Extremely clean and everything you could want. Cleaning also done every few days which was great having clean beds and towels. Wonderful views and location, quiet with everything you need a couple of miles up the road. We paid the bread man in advance and woke up to a fresh loaf every morning , super... the bars two minute walk away were very good and excellent value for money, we rarely went anywhere else. The sunset the peace were heaven. Ria was the perfect host, so kind and accommodating baking us a gorgeous cake, supplying local honey and olive oil, thank you so much Ria. Lots to do Chania old town very nice, lots to see and do. We drove through the mountains which are gorgeous, and the local town of Kissamos provided everything we needed, Then people are just so helpful and friendly.

Wir haben eine sehr schöne Woche in der Villa verbracht. Sehr schöne Villa. Toller Pool, gute Ausstattung, sehr sauber. Kontakte zur Vermieterin sehr nett. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
