"Spectacular views. Spacious villa - super clean. Angelina was super-helpful - was there to meet us in the dead of night when our flights had been delayed - there's a great BBQ - the kitchen's great - you'll enjoy yourselves - but you do need a car!"

"The highlight is the view across to the peninsula. It is stunning! And there are plenty of places from which to enjoy it. Sitting in the shade by the villa, on sun loungers round the pool, in the pool or from various balconys. Location: halfway between Rethymnon and Chania make it great for airport or ferry. Short walk to Plaka (5 mins) with good supermarkets and one very good taverna and a couple of other OK ones. Slightly longer walk (15 mins) down to Almyrida with more choice of tavernas and two or three small beaches. Good taxi service back up the hill if you don't want to walk. NB. The driveway down to the villa is steep for those with walking difficulties Rooms: All great. Most with ensuite. Two rooms share a bathroom. All but one have great views across the sea and have their own balconies. The master suite is amazing with windows on all sides, a large dressing room and bathroom (with bath and shower). Perfect for us with 20+ year old 'children', their partners, parents and a grandparent. Lots of space and privacy for us all so we didn't feel we were living on top of each other Living areas: large and spacious, outside and in, with lots of places for us all to sit together or in smaller groups. Kitchen very well kitted out, with everything you could imagine to cook with (only a four ring hob, slightly surprising for such a large villa but was fine for us) Management: Alexandra responsive and Carina was v helpful day to day "

"My wife and I stayed 9 nights at Bay View Villa1, and wished we could have stayed longer. The villa is compact, not overlooked and perfect for two people, but could easily house four. It has everything you need to make your stay comfortable and relaxing. The view over Souda Bay is incredible. A short walk will take you to the village of Kokkino Chorio with its friendly taverna and well stocked shop. We spent most of our time chilling by the lovely pool, but occasionally ventured out to the nearby coastal village of Almyrida, where there were a number of very good restaurants by the sea. We particularly liked Thalami and Psaros, but there were plenty more to try. Almyrida also had an excellent pharmacy, where all the staff spoke English. If we ever came to this part of Crete again, we would definitely stay at Bay View Villa 1."

"We enjoyed our stay in the villa very much, it had everything we needed. The place is spacious, clean and well looked after and Louise easy to contact. The garden and separating it bushes give sort of privacy from guests staying in other villas and the pool never was overcrowded. We ate in places recommended by Louise, but our favourite one was tavern near the villa, which serves authentic and hearty Greek dishes. Make sure to try it! "

"Really lovely villas and large pools. Could do with slightly more foliage in between villa terraces for added privacy and the cleaner should sweep when changing towels etc..other than that the owners were extremely friendly and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend staying here. Definitely need to rent a car. "

"This is the second time we have stayed here now (also 2 years ago). The views are absolutely stunning from everywhere at the villa. The pool is great and very clean. The house is very big and comfortable. Alex met us to check us in and gave us great tips on beaches and restaurants and was available throughout our stay. The local village Plaka is close by and its a 5 minute drive to Almyrida which has great restaurants on the beach. We will definitely be coming back here again!!"
