Villa Andreas

A cherished family village home has been transformed into a smart and comfortable holiday Villa, within walking distance of the beach, tavernas and public transport. The Villa now boasts a smart pool terrace, made private by smart wood fencing and furnished for soaking up the sun and for dining under the pergola. The living space is modern and spacious with floor to ceiling patio doors, to optimize the sea views and opening onto the pool terrace.

The windows of all three bedrooms open onto an orange grove at the rear of the Villa and a narrow village street passes by the front.

Villa Andreas is a superb family Villa if you want to experience real Crete, but prefer to leave your driving licence at home. A wonderful choice if you are looking for a lovely pool and a simple yet comfortable home in a real Cretan village with a rural atmosphere.



Location

It’s just a short stroll from Villa Andreas, located on the edge of the houses and old buildings which make up the village of Kamisiana, to a choice of tavernas and less than a kilometer to a long stretch of mixed pebble and sand beach. Even in the height of summer the beach remains relatively quiet but if you are looking for a little more action, then a short drive or bus ride (the bus service runs regularly along the main coast road), will bring you to a number of resorts.

Kolymbari, just a 5 mins bus ride, is known for its great seafood tavernas overlooking the little fishing harbour and Tavronitis, in the other direction, also has a good choice of shops and tavernas. Both villages have retained a sense of old style mixed with the new, with traditional cafeneons where the locals timelessly ‘put the world to right’ and sip their Greek coffee.

The western beaches of Falassarna and Elafonissi are a must see and easily accessible by car from this area as well as Gramvousa island and Balos Bay, which can be visited by boat.

Fabulously spacious villa

The villa itself was comfortable and well stocked with everything you could need. The pool area was very good and the pool lovely to use on the hot days we had. It was a 5 minute walk to the main road where two tavernas were open and a further few minutes to a further taverna and a few mini markets. Being towards the old village you didn't feel uou were in a resort and yet everything was still on hand. Neighbours were friendly. Didn't find a safe, but plenty of places to hide documents etc

Villa molto bella

Bellissima villa con piscina. Cucina accessoriata con tutto il necessario. Solone molto ampio e fornito di TV. Camere spaziose e bagno ampio. Zona esterna con piscina grande e lettini. Ottima per due famiglie con bambini. Presenza di molte formiche, in particolare in bagno. Il bagno non è stato pulito molto bene durante la pulizia settimanale.

Luxury Villa in rural location.

This must be the cosiest Villa we have stayed in during our many visits to Crete. Superbly kitted out.We had the best night sleeps and the the cosiest evening on the enormous settees when the weather turned cooler . The pool area is well equipped and private apart from the odd cat dropping in. The villa is 20 min.walk to the shingly beach which has 2 excellent tavernas on.. This is a rural area and the sounds of goats and sheep can be heard around..Travontis another 20 Min walk or short bus drive away is an agricultural town with lovely tavernas and shops .There is a bus at the end of the lane which takes you to Kolombryia.This resort is few miles down the road.The route passes the Supermarket which the Villa Owners run..You are guaranteed of a warm welcome here.! I would recommend Villa Andreas for travellers who want somewhere away from the tourist areas to really feel a bit of authentic Crete. Nothing .it was perfect .Thank you.
