Jasmine villa is situated in our large landscaped gardens close to the pool

Jasmine is one of our three beautiful villas set in our spacious landscaped gardens which have been carefully chosen for their beautiful flowers and foliage, allowing for a private experience, with mature trees providing shade from the sun.

Our emerald green lawns give the opportunity to lay back and sunbath around the pool, or play a few lawn games.

The pool is a massive 20 meters by 10 meters, perfect for relaxing in or for the serious swimmer to get some lengths in. The pool is situated 50 meters from the villa and shared with the other 2 villas. Available 24hrs a day.

The villa has two bedrooms, one large double and an even bigger triple, with the option of adding an extra single bed. There is a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher and washing machine. Space to sit inside and eat or enjoy our outside patio area with gas BBQ for alfresco dinning.

We have a gated private parking spot for each villa. Guests are very welcome to enjoy our various gardens at any time to relax and enjoy the Cretan flowers and wildlife in perfect tranquility.

Our village is located at the foot of the mountain Malaxa, and has the feel of a traditional Greek village, yet only 4km from Chania. There are two local mini markets a chemist and a coffee shop. There is also a traditional taverna serving food and drink.

Meltemaki beach is 2km away it is a beautiful sandy beach popular with the locals. There is a fish taverna, perfect for experiencing authentic Mediterranean seafood.

There is a village bus stop 30 meters from the entrance to the car park, and a bus stop 1km away on the main road from Souda to Chania, buses run every 20 minutes from there and three times a day from the village bus stop.
Taxis from the center of Chania back to Crete retreat are around 8 euro.

Crete retreat is a family run business and we live on site so are available if needed. We are animal lovers with dogs, cats, chickens and parakeets kept within our own premises. Guests are welcome to arrange a visit.

In our opinion Crete Retreat is a perfect environment for people who wish to explore and enjoy Crete, from a beautiful and unique oasis.

WINTER LETS

If you wish to rent the villa during the winter months (November to March) the price is NOT inclusive of electricity, gas or firewood. Please contact us prior to booking to discuss.

Nice lodging near Chania
Convenient lodging with a large pool. Within walking distance of Souda with supermarket, ATM and a Baker. It's easy to get around in the area by bus and it's a good starting point for excursions. Very nice and helpful landlord.

Excellent location of the house

Friendly Owner, Good Setting, Nice Villa
We stayed 10 days with 3 teenage boys so the extra bathroom was very helpful - villa was good, few areas needed some upgrade but fine for our stay. Pool was great. Loved Crete and proximity to village and local town and beautiful Chania a short drive/bus ride away. Well situated to explore the west end of Crete. Ian, the owner was very friendly and helpful.

Peaceful hideaway near Chania
We stayed for 1 week in June and it was absolutely gorgeous! Ian is a terrific host, discrete and helpful. His garden is lovingly tended and he is always followed by his entourage of friendly dogs and the occasional cat. The pool is utterly wonderful, it's huge and there are lots of sun loungers dotted about for your use and it's floodlit at night. The villa is simple but just right, with a lovely covered veranda to sit out on and eat your breakfast. We were very comfortable and it's a little oasis from the bustle of being on the beach or in Chania. It's tucked away, you can walk to a cafe and taverna and the local shop but we never got round to it (!). It's very close to Souda, feels more like being in a suburb rather than a village but it's very peaceful and a 15 minute drive into the heart of Chania. You can also take the bus in from the end of the road. We were in a perfect location for various lovely beaches all about 20 minutes away by car and great sites like Aptera. I cannot recommend this highly enough.

Not Prepared Well
Our Villa was the only one that was open and as such we were under the impression that we were the first visitors of the season. The Villa and Gardens are lovely and pool is great. But when we arrived the place had not been cleaned and was dusty and dirty obviously it had just been opened after the winter and very little preparation had taken place. The bedding was clean and prepared but that was all. We had to clean everything and there was thick dust and grease over the cooker. There was a smashed picture with glass all over the floor in the living room. Ian came and made a half hearted attempt at cleaning it up and we had to finish the rest. Plates and crockery that chipped should have been replaced. In a nutshell preparation was next to none existant.

Villa Jasmine
Wir haben ein paar schöne Tage in der Villa Jasmine verbracht. Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt. Nur das Wetter hätte schöner sein können. Es hat fast jeden Tag geregnet, so dass wir den schönen Pool nicht nutzen könnten. Vielen Dank an Rob und Ian.

Perfect location !!
It was exactly what we were looking for and more. The garden is amazing, you can buy vegetables from the property, the swimming pool is giant. Ian is making his own gin and it is gorgeous and Ian, Rob and Rachel are very nice and helpful. It is very near from Chania and perfect to discover the area. So you have to go there !!
