wonderful stay !!!
Checked in late and Antonis provided us with snacks in case local restaurants were closed which was very kind. We wanted to see things on both sides of the island which made this a great central location. Great neighbourhood with friendly restaurants with fabulous food. beautiful private property that we would come back to any time

Beste Villa auf Kreta
Nach 4 Aufenthalten in verschiedenen Villen auf Kreta steht bei allen in der Familie fest, dass die Sportsvilla die Beste gewesen ist.

One week in Pigi
The house is situated in a lovely village of Pigi, just a few meters walk from a taverna, minimart, butcher and bakery. Although the minimart sells everything you need you are still only a 5 minute drive from Lidl. We were a family of 5, my husband myself and 3 teenage children. One of my son's is a very keen sportsman and he made full use of the gym which is fantastically equipped. The house was immaculately clean and tidy and very well equipped. The only criticism would be that there weren't that many glasses or cups and its really only set up for six. We ate out most evenings and therefore it wasn't a problem for us, but I think if you were planning to cook at the house everyday you might get a little frustrated. Great pool area, although the door that leads out to the pool area is very easy to catch your fingers in, so those with small children should be careful. All in all we had a great holiday. Antonis and Georgia are fantastic hosts and always on the other end of the phone should you have a problem or just need some advice. I couldn't praise them highly enough. They even provided us with food when we arrived at 1.30am.

Komfortable Villa, zauberhaftes Dörfchen und sehr sympathische Eigentümer
Wir waren im Juni in der Sportsvilla mit unserem fast zweijährigen Sohn, einem weiteren Pärchen und dem Cousin meines Mannes für 8 Nächte. Die Villa hat eine super Lage, eigene überdachte! Stellplätze und ist sehr modern eingerichtet und bietet allen möglichen Komfort. Die Küche ist mit allem, was man braucht ausgestattet und ein Pluspunkt waren auf jeden Fall der Pool mit Kinderbereich, der Grill, die vielen Spielgeräte drausen, der Fitnessbereich mit Sauna und Jacuzzi, den wir auch genutzt haben, sowie die Reinigung die wir zweimal hatten. Kinder sind auf jeden Fall hier willkommen! Bei unserer Ankunft erwartete uns bereits ein gedeckter Tisch, die Gastfreundschaft von Antonis und Georgia waren kaum zu übertreffen, an unseren Sohn haben sie auch immer gedacht. Wir fühlten uns sehr wohl in der Villa, und auch im Dorf Pigi. Es gibt einige Tavernen und kleine Minimärkte, und eine Bäckerei, Metzger also alles was man braucht. Das Essen in den Tavernen war gut und authentisch und günstig! Wir hatten dort eine gute Zeit! Vielen Dank nochmal an Antonis und Georgia!

TOP!
We, a family of 3 with a friend of our teenage son, stayed at the Sportsvilla from 26.09.2017 till 03.10.2017. We can merely repeat what all the other reviewers have described and praised with regard to the house, its furniture & equipment, the leisure possibilities, village & surroundings and owners. We were unlucky with the weather which can happen. Surely Antonis would have changed it if he could. Pigi however is located so centrally and on a relatively narrow part of the isle, that we were able to find dry and more importantly sunny spots anyway, within reasonable distance. We definitely consider coming back to this place.

About the host

Hosted by Georgia-Antonis /Property managers / Owner

Host profile image
My name is Georgia Chalkiadaki born and grew up in Rethymno Crete. Pigi is a lovely traditional village just 10 minutes away from the city of Rethymno. There my father grew up in an old house which me and my husband Antonis decided to replace it and build the house of our dreams. Only the 17m well can now remember that house!!! Me and Antonis had the original and profitable idea to build the first Sportsvilla in Greece inspired from our two loves: the luxury holidays and sports. Antonis is a gym instructor (we are also owners of a local gym) with Sports studies in Athens University and Master studies in Bristol University. We work together and have three very young children living in village nearby Pigi. I really love travelling around the world and I am sure that I can be very useful during your stay in our villa.

Why they chose this property

This property is:
1)A brand new luxury villa in a plot of 600 m2 private land.
2) Highly recommended for athletes or sports lovers because of the professional wellness equipment-facilities.
3)Appropriate for kids (safety, privacy, playground)
4)Location: Pigi is a peaceful place close to everything you need with very kind and warm people.

What makes this property unique

Sportsvilla is the first villa in Greece with so particular characteristic and is a unique attraction in our area!!!
Pigi is located in the middle of Crete the biggest and the most interesting Greek island. I can organize for you many incredible tours around.
