Amazing villa in Crete!
Our family had the most amazing time at this Villa. We spent 5 glorious nights, Christine was so helpful as the property manager, met us there and walked us through the house at the beginning of our stay. The views are incomparable, Plaka is very beautiful, and quiet. The pool is gorgeous, and if you love sunrises, words can't describe how beautiful the sunrise is here. It's a short walk to a beach and great restaurants/grocery. We would absolutely return, it was truly like a dream.

Wonderful location; beautiful villa.
We arrived in Plaka late on a very windy night to be met by the lovely Christine who took us to the villa. It wasn't until the next morning that we appreciated just how beautiful the location is. The villa itself is very well equipped and was kept scrupulously clean by the visiting cleaner. Plaka itself is small and very friendly. We had a very relaxing 2 weeks and would not hesitate in returning.

The house is gorgeous, so spacious, clean, beautiful pool and with everything you need from condiments to linen. Christine our host is absolutely wonderful! Such a great communicator, met us at the property and took us through and has been an enormous help assisting with an item left there. If I could give her 100 stars I would, she is awesome. Only downside is we didn’t stay long enough. Can’t wait to go back.

Wonderful
This is a wonderful villa just above the sea and beach with uninterrupted panoramic views across to Spinalonga and along to Plaka. Complimentary beach sunbeds are available when staying at the villa. The village itself which is lovely ( 5-10 minutes walk ) has a good selection of quality restaurants together with several bars, shops and a couple of small supermarkets. The owner ( Susanne ) and manager ( Christine ) were very helpful and easy to deal with. Christine organised airport transfers for us together with a supermarket contact which delivered for our arrival although there was also a nice welcome pack provided. We also rented a small automatic car so we could explore a bit from a local company ( Eagle ) which they delivered to and collected from the villa at a good fully inclusive price and excellent service. We took a taxi one evening into the neighbouring town of Elounda which is also nice although we decided we preferred Plaka. Overall we had a great time and thoroughly recommend the property to anyone wishing to visit this part of Crete.

dreamy stay at Crete Dreams
Our family had a fabulous stay at Vill Crete Dreams in early April. Our ages ranged from 5 to 68, and there was something for all of us there. The villas was spacious, comfortable, and well-appointed. We awoke to magical views, had morning walks along the coast, took the boat trip to Spinalonga and a day trip to Knossos, visited several beaches within a 15-20 minute drive, played card games on rainy days, and took daily strolls into the village for dinner at a different restaurant every night. Because the season was just starting, we often had the restaurants to ourselves and were treated royally by the restaurant staff. Our time in Crete was too short. We will dream of returning to this special island someday.

Poor service. Non existent,
the villa is very basic despite having a great view. when we arrived there was no pillows or duvets and we had to wait 2 nights before they were delivered. the manager lives 20 km away, and you need to rely on the service of the pool man who doesnt speak english. There is no point staying in sometimes, as the TV has no english speaking channels apart from BBC world and there is no air condition in the sitting room we even had workmen digging the garden right outside the kitchen window for 3 days. last year the water was cutting out constantly and the fridge broke down and had to wait for 2 days before it being fixed. the owner does not get involved with any issues related to your stay and insists on vacating in the morning even if your flight is 12 hours later. so you will need to walk around with your suitcases in 35 degree heat or choose to board the plan in your swimwear covered in sand and salt as a courtesy shower room can not be provided.

Perfection
We arrived late at night and were given clear instructions about the villa access (01:00 hence no meet and greet). The taxi from the airport was booked by Christine and the driver present when we arrived. On arrival at the villa we could not sleep for another hour as the villa was stunning and exceeded our expectations. We met with Christine the following morning for introductions and if we were happy with everything. Christine was terrific, friendly, engaging and professional. The next twelve days were bliss. One restaurant in our mind stood out 'Ta Kymata' which is adjacent to the mini supermarket on the left. The wild mushroom risotto and a portion of french fries were fantastic. Being creatures of habit, well, we returned five times over the course of the twelve days. Aisa restaurant is great for lunches and near the beach. Back to villa. Everthing spotless, piping hot water, good power showers, very large patio area, fantastic pool, etc, etc. The view of Spinalonga and Plaka is unsurpassed. We will definitely return. Christine was a credit to her profession. Near the end of our vacation my wife fell ill (allergic to an Antibiotic course of medicine she was currently on) and i contacted Christine who without hesitation arranged for a doctor who arrived within two hours. My wife was much better after some prescriptive medicine. A big thanks to Christine. We won't forget that.

Great place but needs hot water for showers and a working toilet
The view was awesome. The issues we had were that none of the 5 bathrooms had hot water. In addition, one of the toilets in a separate apartment wasn’t working. Not great for the couple staying there. They had to climb up steps and use one of the other bathrooms to shower. Otherwise, everything would have been wonderful.

Perfect area and delightful villa
The property was in a perfect area within walking distance to Plaka and all its restaurants, shops etc. The pool was very cold during stay but it was used by the brave! The upstairs bedrooms were comfortable but the first bedroom was lacking a decent size area to place clothing. We were very sad to leave and our thanks to everyone who helped us during our stay.

The Best Views of the Sea + the Moon
This home was perfect for our large group traveling to Plaka. The outdoor space, ocean views, and pool is as advertised with close access to a beach with beautiful clean water for swimming right down the hill below the home. We spent all of our time outside and made good use to the BBQ to cook fish, prawns, and octopus we purchased from the fish market. We also ordered in food from Spinalonga Taverna and Marias Taverna and ate regularly on the covered balcony as we would watch the full moon rise majestically over the island of Spinalonga. The rooms were large and the beds easily and comfortably accommodated all the adults in our party. The hosts were amazing letting us check in early due to our early morning arrival which allowed us to enjoy the day and have a cool place for my grandmother to stay during the heat of the day. The kitchen is very well stocked with cooking equipment which we found handy as we prepared meals for the group. We really enjoyed the area and village of Plaka. It was very inviting and nice to walk around with cute little shops, delicious ice cream, bars, and great restaurants. The sun beds at the beach were free for anyone staying at the home (which was a great perk) and the water was beautiful for swimming. We would stay here again and really appreciate the setting this home provided for the start of our family vacation!
