Reviews

"We would certainly recommend the villa. This was our second visit to Crete in the same area and it was the fact that it was such a beautiful villa and we could walk to the restaurants & shop that will make us return to The Villa on Top."

We had a wonderful stay at Villa On Top. The view from the pool and villa is simply stunning and we never tired of gazing at the blue waters of the distant bay with ferries and naval ships passing through. The living space in the villa is comfortable, spacious and well-appointed, and the air-conditioning in the bedrooms meant we all slept well. We loved eating out on the kitchen-side balcony in the warm evenings. The pool is large for a private villa, and is shallow enough for a four year old to stand in - our 4 year old spent hours playing in shallow end. The deep end is standing depth for an adult, so it's a perfect pool for all the family! There's a bit of a breeze so you don't get too hot. The view from the pool shower, nestled under the olive tree, looking out over Souda Bay, is to die for. The two local restaurants are a short wander down the hill and to your right, and the one we went to served tasty, good value, local fare. The small supermarket at the bottom of the hill is very handy and supermarkets are only 10 minutes drive, so we had everything we needed. Everyone we met was friendly and helpful, and we were very grateful for the welcome food and water supplies waiting after our late arrival. We initially had wifi problems but the owner, our contact Maria at the holiday agency, and Emmanuel and Yannis worked very hard to fix this as quickly as possible, and for most of our stay we had excellent wifi connection. We were impressed by how well we were looked after. Many thanks for a fabulous holiday, and we look forward to returning to Villa on Top when we are next in Crete!

There is something quite special when you can combine your breakfast, lunch or supper with spectacular views across Suda Bay. The Villa on Top has stunning views. This is a delightful villa with ample private parking overlooking the bay and the valley approach road to the village. Outstanding communication and help from Emmanuel & Yannis along with a welcome gift of wine. We were met by the owner’s family to take us round the villa and show us how things worked. Everything listed was included and worked perfectly and the Wi-Fi was exceptional – always a prime requirement nowadays, particularly if you have to keep in touch with your office – in the digital age you are never really on holiday! We walked most days to the mini-market at the bottom of the road or further along to the 2 restaurants and 1 Café in the village so you can enjoy a drink and not have to drive. The final 200 yards back up to the Villa is a little steep but good exercise. We would certainly recommend the villa. This was our second visit to Crete in the same area and it was the fact that it was such a beautiful villa and we could walk to the restaurants & shop that will make us return to The Villa on Top.
