About this property

Amazing family vacation in a unique property


Villa Marianna is a unique resort for private and relaxing family vacations, at the authentic region of Apokoronas in Chania prefecture, with uninterrupted view of western Crete landscape.

A modern and spacious villa offering comfortable stay for up to 8  guests, situated in a private property of 2000sqm, surrounded by olive and orange trees in a walking distance from the beautiful village of Vryses.

With numerous spots to relax and calm for adults, villa Marianna is the best choice for big families. The kids will enjoy endless hours of fun at the big pool and the gardens around the villa.

Villa Marianna was built with focus on every detail, aiming to cover the needs of a big family, or group of friends looking for a comfortable and safe vacation stay.

Villa Marianna is a house of modern design with spacious interior, equipped with all amenities so as to have a peace of mind during your stay. Nothing to think other than your precious vacation time.

The main kitchen and living/dining room are on the first floor. Three bedrooms with wooden ceiling and each with its own balcony are on the second floor.

The lovely hostel downstairs with separate entrance from the main house is a fully equipped apartment with a bedroom, living room, bathroom and kitchen offering extra privacy even within the same group of guests.

The one of its kind exterior with a big 50sqm tile covered swimming pool, the amazing barbeque, the waterfalls, the stone colorful creations in the amazing gardens, the backyard of fruit trees, will create you life time memories.

With respect to Cretan tradition and the world famous hospitality, our aim is to provide nothing less but the best and make you feel like home.

For us success is our guests to have a memorable stay in our villa, become our friends and choose again and again our villa as their favorable vacation resort.

Either from Chania airport or Heraklion airport the access of the villa is quite easy and safe. Vrysses village is a couple of km from the north national road of Crete which directly connects the two airports of Crete.

The village of Vrysses is at walking distance from the villa. Vrysses is the capital and at the heart of Apokoronas region. At the village you can find all the necessary for your stay while the taverns alongside the river offer Cretan tradinional cousine.

The long sandy beaches of Georgioupolis, Kavros, Almyrida and Kalyves are a few minutes away. Water sports, shopping, restaurants and bars offer so many options in all these destinations.

Just 2 km away is the north national road that connects the major cities of Crete, Chania on the left and Heraklion on the right.

Vryses is also the starting point for breathtaking routes to south Crete and Sfakia area through the sierra of White Mountains.

Looking forward to host you in brilliant villa Marianna!

Lovely place
We loved the villa and the surrounding area. We enjoyed the quiet countryside and local village but also only a short drive to the beach. The villa was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The pool was fabulous and we loved the outdoor kitchen area and cooked homemade pizza's in the wood fired oven which was a real treat. Thank you to the hosts who were responsive and helpful to any questions we had.

Fantastic place
Absolutely fantastic is all I can say!!!! The owners were so welcoming and warm. Any issue or query we had was attended to there and then. Any advice we needed they were on hand any time of day! the outside of this villa is stunning! Absolutely perfect location. Near a beach. Near tourist areas but also traditional Crete is right on your doorstep. The local shops bars and taverns on right on hand with the freshest of produce… we were so so sad to leave but left with the best memories and the most relaxed version of ourselves in a while. The outside bbq area was a huge hit with hubby. And the apartment underneath was perfect for the grandparents. They said it was the best holiday they have ever had. This holiday this villa this family this location has a special part in our hearts. Xxx

Fantastic Place - Great Hospitality
We can give nothing but 5 stars. We felt so welcomed and even though we arrived late in the evening the first day we were greeted welcome, and the landlord had even prepared some food for us. The surroundings and the villa were great. It was nice to stay in Vryses, a little bit outside the tourist areas. The pool was nice, there was a lot of sunbeds as well as tables and chairs on the property. There was also air-conditioning in all bedrooms and the main living room. Everything worked as expected and whenever we had a question or a request we got immediate answers or service. We received a service well over what anyone could expect. The landlord delivered fresh cheese (own production) to us as well and on the day where we wanted to cook pizzas in the pizza oven (a great outdoor kitchen with a BBQ and pizza oven) the landlord showed up and prepared the oven for us - and they even brought some Greek specialties for us (Kalitsounia). Even during checkout, the landlord was being extraordinary flexible. We felt welcome and appreciated all the time. Thanks a lot, to Villa Marianna and the family behind it! Our best and most sincere recommendations for this Villa Marianna. We will definitely come back again.

Fantastic Villa
Me and my family have just returned from our holiday and everything was wonderful. The villa is stunning and absolutely spotless. Located in a lovely village just a short walk away you had the best of both worlds - privacy with the option of walking to some lovely taverns. The local beach is 15 minutes away and is stunning. The hosts went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Always available if we needed anything and even provided us with a delicious meal for our first evening!! This was our first vist but wont be our last. Thank you so very much.
