STAY AT VILLA VARVARA
Our 2nd stop on this trip to Greece, was Almyrida at Villa Varvara. Outstanding clean private local and accessible. We found it to be a great base for exploring the west side of Crete. the local shops and eateries near the property were just what we wanted small local excellent fare. Walking distance down to beach chairs and the ocean.The views from ALL the balconies of the property are breathtaking. We tried to spend a night on each one and found the back balcony looking at the mountains to be our favorite. Excellent bedding and water pressure for baths and shower. PRIVATE!! we loved the kitties that came to visit. GREAT communication and direction from the Hosts. FULL KITCHEN made some dinners at home was great. The pool had ample chairs and outside amenities. We recommend that you choose a car that is small to mid compact in order to park on the private driveway. We rec host describe this in listing if you came in a jeep it would not work.Easy access with getting into the property. We would rebook here. We were only two in the house so one full bath worked out. The 2nd 1/2 bath is not he first floor and makes for good access. Come to Alymrida and stay at Villa Varvara.

Lovely holiday
Thank you. We stayed just a week but wish we had stayed longer. We had a lovely time, and the villa is in a great location, providing peace & quiet and only being 5 mins walk from the beach. If anything, the property description undersells the villa. The outdoor space is great for anytime of the day and the many balconies excellent for retreating to in the evenings with wonderful views of the mountains, which was an added bonus. The location is also only 15 mins walk from Plaka with all of its great places to eat. The host, Jan was very responsive in keeping us up to date with many recommendations. Thank you for giving us a lovely holiday.

Wonderful stay !
Our stay at Villa Vavara was a truly enjoyable experience. The villa is lovely, blending modern comfort with a cozy, welcoming feel. The rooms were spacious, clean, and well-decorated, offering lovely views of the surrounding area. The outdoor space was a highlight for us. The private pool was a great place to relax, surrounded by lush greenery that provided a peaceful atmosphere. We spent a lot of time there, soaking up the calm and quiet that the villa offers. The location was also very convenient, giving us a sense of seclusion while still being close to local attractions and restaurants. It was easy to explore during the day and come back to the villa for some rest in the evenings. Villa Vavara is a wonderful place for a relaxing getaway. Whether you're looking for a quiet retreat or a comfortable base for exploring the area, this villa has a lot to offer. We had a great time and would definitely consider returning in the future.

Sept. 2023 Thank you Jan and Dimitra; also Kaiti and the team. We had an excellent stay. The first time having our own villa and pool, what a treat! The villa was beautifully decorated, spacious and very clean, with all the amenities. There was plenty of space outside for sunbathing around the lovely pool and also garden areas where we picked limes off the trees for our G & Ts. The area was private but only 5 minutes from a great choice of restaurants with the best food and a lovely beach area. All this was handy for us as we did not want to hire a car. We booked a taxi for a trip to Chania which was a lovely day out but there is also a bus service available. It was lovely to meet you Jan - what a great guy. Jane and Mark xx

Just home after 13 nights at the beautiful Villa Varvara. So much outside space and of course the pool. Surrounded by Olive trees, lemon trees, herbs, plants and flowers. Villa is in a fantastic location just outside the village of Almyrida. It truly is a 5 minute walk to the beach, restaurants, shops and water activities. Definitely do not need a car. Almyrida taxis are reliable and clean for airport transfers or a supermarket trip. Jan is a real treasure of a host and was thankfully forgiving of our clumsy teenager 😆 Would definitely recommend a stay!

Wonderful villa, by far the best equipped villa we have ever had. The pool area was also well equipped with plenty of loungers and tables and chairs. Very convenient position as only a 5 minute walk to the bakery, shops and restaurants. The beach is sandy - ideal for the granddaughter who was 20 months old. The cot and high chair were excellent as well. We didn’t hire a car but the taxi service in the village is good. Overall I’d recommend this villa to anyone other than those with mobility problems as there are steps from the garden up to the pool area and more steps into the house.

Thank you Jan and Dimitra, also Kaiti and the team, we had a lovely holiday. We really liked the Villa Varvara! We had never stayed in our own villa with our own pool before, so it was a real treat. Communication beforehand while booking etc was excellent. Arrangements to access the property were clear. Everything was very clean and had been prepared carefully with Covid precautions. The one double and two twin rooms were perfect for our family. We enjoyed the various balconies particularly the 'mountain view terrace' as we called it where my wife and I had our , morning coffee and cake each day looking out to the White Mountains. We all really enjoyed the pool which was a good size and really clean. Plenty of terrace chairs and loungers. Jan, Dimitra, Kaiti and colleagues were really helpful, and kind. Sadly we are not able to come to Crete every year but would definitely revisit Villa Varvara if circumstances allow. Thank you.

This was our first visit to Crete, and wow what a beautiful place! The villa had everything we needed and was a real home from home. a welcome pack of bread, butter, veg, fruit, water, wine had been left for us which was really generous. The beach ,restaurants etc were a couple of minutes walk and the food was fantastic. We Walked into Kalyves following the path on the hills with absolutely stunning views and also took a bus in to Chania which is worth a visit.

Wonderful Villa Varvara in Almyrida!
We are a family of 5 and we were very happy with our stay at this villa. A romantic and fantastic villa, recently modernized to a very high standard. The Villa holds everything we need for a beautiful holiday and the welcome pack of wine and basic provisions were gratefully received. Well equipped , comfortable and spacious with a lovely garden with tables and chairs and great private pool. There are multiple terraces and always a place to sit in the shade. The big terrace on the first floor is great for spending the evening after a hot day. It would benefit from some literature on the local amenities and attractions although there is a internet smart TV which you can access information through. A great villa in the very pretty village of Almyrida. It's 5 minutes walk on a flat road from the village where there are lots of nice restaurants and a lovely sandy beach and we have not rented a car. Villa Varvara is next to its brother Villa Iannis but we had plenty of privacy, they Villas have separate entrance, separate parking and lovely prive it pools. The Villa was very clean and well maintained and Anne and Richard were very helpful. Jan the owner is very friendly and accommodating and he wants give to you a lovely holiday. We’ve enjoyed breakfast at Francoise. If you want to have dinner on the beach, we’d recommend Dimitri’s in Almyrida, good greek food with a beautiful sunset. We’ve also walked the Samaria Gorge, which is a tough walk but definitely worth it! However, you don’t have to leave Villa Varvara to have a good time, we’ve enjoyed many lovely days at the pool! It is not often we as a family go back to the same place but we really have fallen in love with this part of Crete and are looking forward to our next visit. We all loved it!

Fantastic villa in a great location - ideal for larger families
We stayed in this villa 5 years ago under it's previous owners and it was tired. Now, re-painted and with appropriate furniture that fits it has a new lease of life. From the moment you book you are always in control knowing where to find the keys etc, who to contact if you have any issues and where things are. Anne and Richard from the property management company are excellent and will be at the property in minutes if needed. Would thoroughly recommend this villa as it is a short walk (less than 5 mins) on level ground to teh beach and teh Tavernas.

They were unfortunately not able to greet us but as well them and other people responsible for the villa were so helpful and nice ❤️.
