"Our stay at Villa Leon was 5 days of pure relaxation and peace in the most beautiful of settings. From the start, both hosts were wonderful, greeting us on arrival and showing us around the property. The residence was pristine clean including bedding, bathroom and kitchen. The host treated our group to some lovely Cretan treats and meals during our stay along with many local beach, restaurant and cafe recommendations, which really made us feel at home in Crete. Appliances such as dishwasher, washing machine, LCD TV and air conditioning throughout made our stay very pleasant. We couldn’t recommend Villa Leon more if you are staying in Chania town, which is only a 10 minute drive away."

"Villa Leon was amazing! The villa is spotless and offers all the amenities, including an outdoor shower! The pool provides a stunning view of the mountains, all while being in a fantastic location—just a 15-minute drive to Chania Old Town and centrally located between several beaches. There's also a local tavern just down the road. The owner, was excellent at meeting all our needs while respecting our privacy, making the villa feel like it's all yours. We would definitely stay again!"

"What a great stay we had. Our host and his family greeted us warmly and showered us with Cretan food treats throughout our stay. We were made to feel part of the family which was very special to us. The villa itself is first class, spotlessly clean with a great swimming pool which we used daily. We received good recommendations on beaches to visit, local gorges to see and local food options. Yannis was my contact and he communicated regularly and was very helpful in resolving a car rental return for me which I greatly appreciated. Would return to stay here in a heartbeat and would 110% recommend this property to all."

"The pictures by the pool are an accurate portrayal of blissfully sitting out with that view. The area is quiet for relaxing, with birdsong and lamb bells for background noise as you relax."

"Very friendly owners. Although they spoke no English, we managed to communicate through Michalis’s translation app. They were very hospitable and prepared a local dinner for us on our last night🙏🏼❤️. We lacked a few kitchen utilities during our stay, but Michalis quickly came up with some workable solutions. All in all, very thankful for our stay at this location."

"I recently had the pleasure of staying at Villa Leon's Airbnb, and it was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment I stepped in, every detail was thoughtfully curated, ensuring a comfortable and memorable experience. The location was prime, nestled within close proximity to local attractions yet offering a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle. The owner's hospitality was commendable, always available for recommendations or any assistance. The space was immaculately clean, cozy, and equipped with all the essentials. If you're looking for a home away from home, this is the place to be. Highly recommend!"

"This is a really beautiful place to stay - the private pool is stunning and spotlessly clean, and sitting outside next to it with the view down to the sea is lovely. Much better than the photos even. In addition the communication from the company that manages the property is brilliant - they are on hand at all times to help. And the couple that own it are lovely - they brought us Greek food lots of evenings, gave us recommendations for things to do and were really kind."

"This place is absolutely gorgeous! Immaculately clean, loads of space, ample parking, and only a €15 taxi into Chania if you fancy a few drinks on the evening! The pool is also gorgeous and it was only used by us our entire trip! The owner, his wife and daughter are SO welcoming and showed us how to use everything in the villa. They left us bread, ham, cheese, fruit, orange juice and water to help get us in which was so nice. And then gave us the most amazing tasting Cretan treats pretty much every day thereafter!"

On site host Michalis was very helpful, proactive and friendly to all issues but not invasive and a great asset to this property. I was pleased to take up his offer of a trek in the surrounding hills and he was a great guide pointing out rare trees and herbs as well as spectacular views over the north side of the island. Once he realised my wife was vegetarian, he amended the offer to cook a traditional lamb dish and produced a vegetarian dish specially which was very thoughtful. The villa is well appointed with good views over the Port and good connection to all parts of the West of the island. Recommended.

The property is well located only 15 mins from Chania by car. The pictures by the pool are an accurate portrayal of blissfully sitting out with that view. The area is quiet for relaxing, with birdsong and lamb bells for background noise as you relax. The host of the property is what really makes this place special. They check in on you throughout the stay and provide anything you need. And Mr. Michalis upstairs comes down with home made Cretan dishes for you to try- which are all delicious. It’s the perfect property for relaxing in the sun by the pool, combined with days out around the island.
