Relaxation in a beautiful setting!
This property is exactly as advertised. Lovely cool, shiny, clean entrance, kitchen with everything you need, a comfy lounge area and 2 large bedrooms with a bathroom each! Both with balconys too! Then there's the pool! It was cleaned twice during our stay. Beautiful views over Elounda with plenty of room around the pool for dining, sunbathing and just pure relaxation. A couple of beautiful walks down to Elounda town, with Tavernas en-route! Always a bonus! Overall, a fantastic stay. Thanks Andrew and Rose. We will definitely be back! Tracy and Martin x

A hidden gem with views to die for...
Villa Minos was perfect. I travelled with my wife and 15 year old daughter. We flew to Heraklion and hired a car to drive to the villa. Even with a few hours delay, Rose (property manager) was really helpful and accommodating and met us at the property. The villa was lovely and I don't think the photo's do it justice. It's modern, clean, a good size for 4 people. The bedrooms and downstairs had effective and much needed air conditioning, The pool area, sunbeds and seating areas provided lots of outdoor eating/drinking space. The views from the pool terrace were amazing - perfect to watch the day go by and sun go down behind the villa - the colours on the mountains in the distance were photographed almost every evening. The kitchen has all the mod-cons including dishwasher and washing machine. The villa is in Mavrikiano. Near to the villa (less than 5 minutes walk) were 2 tavernas and a Cretan Pub - all with beautiful views over Elounda bay. I'm not going to lie, Mavrikiano is on a very steep hill but this shouldn't put anyone off. We went into Elounda several times which was a 10-15 minute walk down the hill. There are so many bars/restaurants and shops down there - everything you need. The beach in Elounda was nice - and 2 sunbeds & parasol were a reasonable 8 euros for the day. I would highly recommend Villa Minos and this area of Crete. A lovely relaxing, chilled holiday! Thank you!

Beautiful villa with amazing views!
We had a wonderful holiday staying at Villa Minos! The villa itself is beautiful. All of the rooms are spacious, modern and immaculately clean. The kitchen is well stocked, the pool is a great size and clean and the gardens are pretty and well kept. Wifi is very good as is the air conditioning too.The views from the gardens, pool area and both bedroom balconies are beautiful - absolutely picture perfect. You'll see the steep hill mentioned to reach the villa, the last short road is steep but we walked to and from town everyday, though less abled walkers may struggle in which case it is drivable with parking space directly in front of the villa. We walked through the village and olive groves instead, a gentler and less hilly walk before the last incline, though the villa and views are well worth it! We found the villa in a quiet and safe village area, the residents we passed were happy and welcoming, greeting us everyday and there are good tavernas close by too. The walk to the main town is 10 -15 minutes and the town and beach are beautiful with a great choice of restaurants and shops. Andrew's correspondence was fast and excellent, booking was smooth and easy and the villa details and local details were clear and helpful. Rose met us at the villa and is lovely, knowledgeable about the area and keeps the villa well stocked and immaculately clean. We have no hesitation recommending the Villa and hope to be back soon, enjoy!

Comfortabele villa met prachtig uitzicht
We hebben enorm genoten van ons verblijf in de villa. De villa is prachtig gelegen met een heel mooi uitzicht over de baai. Het huis is netjes en alle apparatuur doet het naar behoren. De communicatie over aankomst en vertrek of als er iets aan de hand is verloopt vlot en prettig. De baai van Elounda is heel gezellig met veel goede restaurantjes en leuke winkeltjes. We hebben zelf ook uitstapjes met de auto gemaakt. Het enige wat iets minder prettig is, is de steile weg omhoog naar de villa. Dat wende wel maar was de eerste keren even spannend.
