Panoramic Sea Views in Archos Villa

This villa was perfect for us - a group of 7 young people. There’s a great pool, pool table, games and beautiful views. It is a bit far out from anything but we hired a car and this made food shopping easy so it wasn’t a huge problem. All in all great villa, great hosts and we had a fab time!

it's a lovely house with a lot of extra's like the swimmingpool and the pooltable. Fresh lemons and figs right from the garden on your plate. Unfortunately we had soms inconvenience with the water but Mr Yannis was very helpfull to fix the problems. We had a lovely holiday.

Staying for two weeks in Villa Archos was an outstanding experience. What a beautiful large villa, location, view, pool and facilities around. Very quiet location with an fantastic view on the sea a few km away. It’s located very close to the beach and the beautiful town Rethymno where there is all you need: shops, restaurants, supermarket (10 minutes drive only), beaches, history and many more. T... more

We booked this villa for a 10 day stay in Crete with another family - the four bedrooms were perfect for that. Booking was easy, the owners were very helpful over email in sorting out the questions we had. When we arrived at the airport, I phoned the owner to let him know we were on our way. When we got to the villa he was there to meet us and had left a lovely platter of fresh fruits and chees... more

A very nice villa! And a very nice host! We have enjoyed our stay very much! Yiannis is such a nice person. The house has everything you need. when there was a problem the host was very helpful! The house is very huge. We stayed there with only four persons and it was like a big villa for us. We would come back again. Big thanks to the host. Hopefully we will see each other again someday ;)

The villa was great. Really enjoyed sitting up on the top terrace and watching the sunset. So much space and we were greeted with an amazing spread and some traditional Raki. Really thoughtful touches. Only downside was the lack of water in the mornings but that was a local issue.

The villa was fine and the owner Mr Yiannis was very nice at our arrival and very helpful in supplying us with some food and advice on where/what to do. The swimming pool was kept clean every night by the owner and the pool in the basement is a bonus to spend some time. Very nice experience and we hope to return soon.

We had an amazing trip and the villa was one of the best parts of it. The villa is locating in a beautiful area, surrounded by breathtaking vistas of mountains, olive trees and the sea in the horizon. The villa is secluded, and it takes only 12 minutes to reach Rethymno. We had a car and it was very easy to go to the supermarket, go out, and go to restaurants in the evenings. The villa has 3 floor... more

The villa was absolutely perfect for us, two families with 3 children in total. The divided space of the floors, the different areas to be on and play are great! The owner was incredibly friendly and offered us to help ourselves to all the fruit and vegetables growing on the grounds, which was really lovely: having such healthy and fun snacks for the children was really great. The villa was exactl... more

Fantastische vakantie villa! Je voelt je gelijk thuis en prima te doen met 8 man

Very lovely place! The villa has all you need and any extra wish is fullfilled with joy!

We booked the villas Archos for our wedding on the beach in July 2018 and it did not disappoint. It had beautiful views and was very peaceful and quite an idyllic location to chill out before the wedding. when we arrived we were met by the owner who had prepared some snacks and drinks for us, and put essentials in the fridge including raiki. On our second day we were contacted by the concierge M... more

Archos villa is really lovely - the pictures don't do it justice! There were 7 people in our party and there was plenty of space for everyone. The pool is a good size and the BBQ area is really nice. The villa was very well equipped with cutlery, plates etc and there was a fridge on each floor which proved handy. The location is fabulous - it feels very rural but is only a 10-15 minute drive to th... more

We had a wonderfull holiday! The house is very nice. The owner very kind en helpfull. The house was clean. The swimmingpool was great: we used it every day. The app we received from CreteVillas4U was nice and informative.

Booked the cook at home for 4 dinners and had great Greek home made (in our kitchen) food also using the outside grill and the really nice pizza oven ! Food was excellent (thanks Maria !), the... more

Our stay at Archos Villa was a delight from the moment we arrived. It has an amazing vista overlooking the Aegean and due to being in the foothills near Rethymnon, a cool breeze wafts through the villa in the afternoon and evenings. The air-conditioning in the bedrooms works brilliantly (although not installed and not needed in the basement bedroom, due to it always being cool as it is built in... more

Wir wurden an unserem ersten Tag mit frischen Trauben, einheimischem Käse und Raki auf der wunderschönen Terasse mit Meerblick begrüsst. Der Vermieter des Hauses ist sehr aufmerksam, freundlich und zuvorkommend. Er kam täglich vorbei und erkundigte sich wie es allen geht, als einer der Mitreisenden krank war bot er uns an uns zu den Ärzten zu begleiten um zu übersetzten und er las uns während de... more

Upon our arrival, I was preparing myself of the house being more worn down and dirty than the pictures. Pictures always lie, and I did not want to be disappointed. So I lovered my expectations, and hoped the house would be at least ok. However, what met us that evening, right after the sun set, was the perfect start to our two weeks holyday in beautiful Krete! The house owner, Gianis, and Manos, w... more

We(group of 9 people including 4 kids) stayed in the villa for a week and had a great time. All the facilities were up to the mark as mentioned in the website. The host/owner of the villa is a very polite and friendly person. The swimming pool has got lots of great inflatable toys for kids To stay in the villa a car is recommended (Posted on Tripadvisor)

Overall experience staying there one word would describe it all. Peaceful!! To be honest at the beginning i was afraid of the distance by looking in Google map but i found out that it was only 3 minutes from the main villages of adele & Pigi which had all that we wanted for the house. Cleaning service was typical for Greek standards, nothing too enthusiastic but not bad as well. The house inside i... more

We travelled last year to Crete and decided to stay at archos villa. It was the only place that suited for two families, had all the facilities we needed and yet was in a close distance from capital city (Rethymno). Definitely the best value for money ratio highly Recomended. (Posted on Tripadvisor)
