A little piece of heaven...

What a gem!!We arrived at the property and were overwhelmed by the loveliness of what we had booked. The property is in a quiet village location with wonderful views of mountains and olive groves. The living spaces were spotlessly clean and cool the whole time. The shower was powerful and controllable. The kitchen is really well equipped with everything we needed and cooking was a pleasure. The fridge and freezer are a great size, the washing machine is easy to use and does a great job.The location is great for Rethymno, which we loved and kept going back. Heraklion was also within reach for a day out as well as Chania in the other direction. We visited many of the places recommended by the host including the caves and the wonderful village of Margarites to see the potters at work.The villa is obviously a much loved home from home as well as a rental. It's got those 'home touches' without being cluttered.The host was amazing at communicating and we felt fully informed about the villa facilities and the area. The village map was so helpful on arrival.We enjoyed being surrounded by wildlife & stargazing at night.Only drawback we can think of is there's a lot of stairs. But worth it we think for the tranquility.A car is necessary for this property but roads are in good condition and easy to navigate.Can't recommed this villa too highly! Loved it!

Peace and relaxation

My wife and I took our 2 week break at Villa Eirene to just relax and get away from the rat race. The villa is perfect for this. It’s so quiet in the neighbourhood and the views from the verandah are stunning. The pool is a great size and we spent most of our time there. Eating out is just a simple short car journey away or the local taverna does some good home cooked food. Decent supermarkets are also a short car trip away. The house itself is cosy and has everything you need. The communication with Chris was first class at all times and his pre-stay info pack is detailed. The internet can be a bit patchy at times but this is a small village in Crete not a big city. All in all we had one of the most relaxing stays we’ve had together anywhere since the children left home 10 years ago. Highly recommended.

Stay at Roumeli

This is a beautiful villa, very well appointed in a quiet area with fantastic views (over olive groves with hills beyond), from the lounge,front balconies,third bedroom and the pool.The accommodation we found was first class,couldn't fault it,home from home, clean,tidy, everything we needed.Communication with the owner was excellent.The only thing we noticed was there are some steepish steps and the third bedroom is a self contained room built into the villa but not accessible from it. This was not a problem for us(our 17 year old enjoyed the freedom) but might be for others with young children. If you're looking for a relaxed break in a great setting but still near lots of facilities with a lovely pool, air conditioned bedrooms etc then this is the place for you.

An Hellenic Gem.

Villa Eirene is fantastically located. It has a sense of solitude, overlooking an expanse of olive groves, out towards the mountains. Although the Villa is also well situated, with good access to the E75, proving easy access to the major cities of Chania, Rethynmon and Iralaklion. As a family, we found the villa welcoming and well equipped and a relaxing place to spend time under the Hellenic sun. The swimming pool was well cared for and and larger than average for Crete. A great place to swim, or just to lean over the edge and take in the vista. The veranda is well shaded and cool, with a breeze that is cooling. The guest folder is comprehensive and provides some great suggestions for beaches and cultural attractions. Locally, closely located to the villa, is the small fishing village of Panormos. It has a small beach and some excellent tavernas. Finally, Chris was a great host, a good communicator and attentive. We would not hesitate to return to Villa Eirene in a heart beat. Truly a Hellenic gem.

Lovely villa with beautiful views!

We had a fantastic stay in Roumeli. The villa was perfect for our family of four and we especially loved the beautiful views and the pool. The villa is on the edge of a village looking out over olive groves. Very serene and peaceful. We found the beaches at Bali (15 min) were great for kids and teens and the port at Panormos (5min) was a lovely spot for dinner watching the sunset. It was great to have aircon in both bedrooms too and the house had every convenience we could need for a relaxing stay (dishwasher etc). Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday!

Beautiful peaceful location

Eirene is located in the most beautiful and peaceful place at the edge of a very small village. We had a fabulous time here. We loved having the pool (and aircon in the bedrooms). It was very well stocked for cooking in the villa. The only thing I would say is that we arrived at 23.30 not having had anything to eat or much to drink since about 13.00 and there was nowhere open until late morning on the Sunday. There are 2 supermarkets here where you can get pretty much all you need. I would recommend getting a car because the village is quite remote but once you have, Crete is a beautiful place that is easy to explore with lots to do or time to just chill at this gorgeous villa.

First time in Crete

This is such a beautiful and peaceful villa, the photos don't do it justice. Our flight was delayed, and we struggled to find it in the dark - luckily we accidentally drove to Stefano's house and he very kindly led us to the villa. What a wonderful surprise when we woke up the next morning, and saw the beautiful view across the olive groves - magical. Our kids loved the pool, and we loved Crete. There are a couple of lovely cafes in Roumeli and you have to have dinner at Taverna Roumeli - so welcoming, and great food. We loved our 2 weeks of relaxing and exploring the area - so many lovely places to enjoy Rethymno, Plakias, Panormo to name just a few. The villa is very well equipped. There are 3 terraces so always somewhere shady to escape to, or somewhere to sunbathe, or somewhere to escape your family. A couple of things to bear in mind - there are a lot of steps - no problem for us but if you have mobility issues, or very small children, this might not be for you. The third bedroom is a self contained unit that cannot be accessed from inside the main villa, it has its own access and staircase - once again perfect for us, our daughter loved her own space. If you're looking for somewhere to relax and explore Crete - this villa is perfect. We hope to come back one day.

We had a wonderful time in Roumeli. Such a beautiful setting amidst olive groves with the mountains behind them. We ate at the little coastal town of Panormos a few times. The pool was beautifully kept. We have nothing but good things to say about the villa. It was very private with only 4 others nearby but set back out of sight. Chris was patient throughout as Covid meant numerous changes, but it was definitely worth it in the end.

Peaceful house in village location

Stayed as a family of 4. Great house in a peaceful location overlooking olive groves with mountains in the distance. Situated on the edge of a village (great taverna 15 minute walk away) and only a 5 minute drive from Panormos or 20 minutes to Bali. Teenage son particularly enjoyed having his own'pad' using the downstairs bedroom! Great base for exploring either east or west and also for a few days chilling by the pool. Chris was great at responding to any queries we had and we'd love to revisit in the future!

Very comfortable, clean and well equipped. Great location.

We had a great week. If anything the photos and description don't do the house and location justice. The house is very comfortable, plenty of places to sit in the sun or the shade. The pool is great and also very clean. It is a short walk into Roumeli where there is a basic shop, couple of bars and a fab taverna. We didn't bother to go further than Panormos which is relatively uncrowded, has a couple of beaches and lots of places to eat and shop. Very easy journey along the motorway from Heraklion. This villa is perfect for a lazy, recharge your batteries holiday. It's nice and quiet but not isolated. Surrounded by olive groves with views of the mountains. Highly recommend and the owner was very helpful when we were booking.
