This was one of the best holidays we’ve had, the villa, welcome and facilities are 5*. If you’re thinking about booking this villa, my advice would be to book it now, you won’t regret it, the standard of the accommodation was superb. We received a great welcome, a fabulous welcome pack and the villa was so clean. I would recommend anyone that wants to visit Crete, come here, the tavernas in the village were excellent also, both different to each other, but both great. You will need a car, but that means you can tour the island. The team that manages the villa were also great, we had no problems but they checked in with us every week.

If you are considering a villa holiday then please make Aquila your’e choice. The house itself is stunning, well maintained and a gorgeous mix of modern and traditional style. The owner Artemis kindly met us with the agent Niki on arrival and gave us a lovely tour…they are both on hand if you have any issues/questions and answer very quickly. The location is slightly isolated so you will need a car to get to a large enough supermarket to do a big shop but there is a tiny shop and restaurant within a 10 minute walk. A generous basket of treats was awaiting us on arrival and the villa has all you will need to cook day and night. The views are breathtaking and it felt like a home from home… we only left the villa on a single day! Without a doubt we will be back and I can’t wait.

The best villa we have stayed in in over 25 years of villa holidays in Greece, Spain and Portugal. The whole process of booking and arrival at the Villa was excellent and our hosts could not have been more helpful in meeting us on our late night arrival, providing a brilliant welcome pack which we were unable to finish in the week. The location high up on the hillside provided stunning views in all directions and the sunsets were amazing. The Villa was great, 4 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms ensured everyone was equally catered for, great beds and furnishings. The kitchen and lounge area were fully equipped and were spacious. The outside space was grassed (allowing for some friendly Padel/pickleball games) and provided several different seating areas and the many loungers, bean bags and chairs was a really nice aspect. The pool at about 12 metres was big enough to swim some lengths or float on the provided airbeds and relax. A great place to stay in every respect and it is very possible that we will revisit this stunning villa again in the next couple of years.Thanks so much to Artemis and Nikki and Chania Rentals. P.S. Car hire through the company was also very positive. Nick, Karen, Christiaan, Robyn and Cheryl.

We were two families staying at the end of october. It was our second time at Aquila Villa and we loved it just a little bit more because of the heated pool. The House is incredible nice and there is all you need to have a good stay, even a welcome package (cookies, oil, honey,...) and drinks. The view over the sea is incredible and best from the pool! We also loved the near tavern owned by the family of Eleonore. They are very nice people with very good origin food (and a lot of it!! ;) ) And visit the oilmill of the Melissakis family near the Villa. The oil ist wonderful!
We will be happy to come back and enjoy the peace and quiet.
Thank you very much Niki and Artemis!

We were 8 women and spent 8 days in this awesome house. Wonderfully furnished and lots of comfort! Infinity pool with a view of the sea, simply breathtaking! We didn't want to leave the complex at all. Niki and her husband were also extremely friendly and accommodating. We will definitely be back!

We recently stayed with our family (5 aduls and 2 children) in this holiday villa for a week and we highly recommend this villa. First of all, the view of the villa was spectacular and the pool lovely. You will directly get a holiday vibe when you arrive there. The villa was spatious (even more than expected), clean and everythink was working perfectly. Lastly, the owner was so kind to provide us a basket with some food for breakfast as we arrived during the night and it was a national holiday so all stores were closed.
