Luxury villa with large, 12 meter private pool looking over an olive grove with mountain and sea views in Vamos, Crete.

Villa Chrysoula is situated on a high ridge just outside of Vamos, surrounded by mature trees, olive groves, and beautiful gardens. With magnificent views of Souda Bay and the White Mountains (Lefka Ori), this garden paradise is alive with bird song and scents of the Mediterranean. Villa Chrysoula offers plenty of space to host families and their guests. Only 500 meters from the center of the charming village of Vamos, it is close enough to walk to all amenities, but far enough to feel like you're in the countryside.

The swimming-pool is surrounded by beautiful gardens and has a toddlers’ area. Sun loungers and parasols are available on the pool deck. Cook on the gas-barbecue (Weber) and eat al fresco at the outdoor dining-area.

The main floor of the villa has an open-plan kitchen that leads into a spacious living and dining room, made comfortable at any season with well-equipped air conditioners, ceiling fans and under floor heating. Walk directly outdoors onto the terrace, garden and pool deck via sliding doors. Here's something you won't find at most villas: a guitar! Guests are welcome to enjoy the acoustic guitar, board games and books.

The kitchen is equipped with top quality Indesit cooking and refrigeration appliances, as well as an electric orange juicer, food processor, coffee machine, and hand electric blender. All pots, pans, and kitchenware are ready for you to cook---a must with the incredible quality of local food in the Vamos and Apokoranas area, especially the olive oil, yoghurt, honey and cheeses.

The top floor features two double bedrooms with luxury-top mattresses, built-in wardrobes, air conditioners, ceiling fans and an adjoining bathroom/shower with bath. Both bedrooms step out onto a long, shared balcony for you to enjoy sunsets and lovely views of the Aegean Sea.

The ground floor has a spacious bedroom suite equipped with two double beds, each with luxury top mattresses. The ground floor suite also has built-in wardrobes, its own bathroom/shower room, with hair dryer, and can be accessed by a separate entrance making it ideal for a multiple family visit.

The ground floor is equipped with a large laundry/utility room, which includes a clothes washing machine, clothes drying rack, and iron with board. The utility room also has an extra drinks fridge/freezer.

The traditional village of Vamos offers all amenities, including a 24 hour health centre, dentist, bank, school, mini markets & a variety of other stores. The village also attracts tourists interested in the archeology and history of this historic village.

    An amazing stay! The villa is situated in a beautiful countryside surrounded by olive trees, fruit trees, and herbs. The pool was warm and clean. The check in was simple - just followed detailed instructions Nicola sent us. The kitchen is well equipped and we were pleasantly surprised by some hoodies left for us by the host. The villa itself is spacious, which was nice for our family. The communication with the host was also easy and quick.You need a car to stay there - it is situated in a small village in the hills, about 45 minutes from Chania and Rethymno. You also need a car to get to the beaches. I would definitely recommend this place!!!

    Fabulous! We stayed for 10 nights at this villa, the villa was perfect - very spacious, fully equipped with everything you need. All the rooms have air con and ceiling fans, we found we mainly only needed to use the fans as they worked so well. The villa was extremely clean upon arrival with a welcome basket of bread, milk, water, jam, yoghurt, butter, beers and wine - perfect as we did not arrive until after midnight. The views are simply stunning looking out onto the White Mountains was so relaxing, plenty of outside spaces to sit and sunbathe with the pool being a perfect size, with a separate padding area perfect if you have toddlers. You can walk a short walk (10 mins) into Vamos village where there are a shops that contain everything you need, some lovely restaurant's where the food is amazing and staff so friendly and welcoming. It is very traditional and not at all touristy so perfect is you want to experience authentic Crete. We hired a car so that we could drive to the beach (10 mins by car) the beaches are fantastic, Keyleves beach has more choice of restaurants and bars/shops - also a bigger supermarket. We were a family of 5, children ranging from 13 to 19 and we had the best time - we would love to return to Crete and to this wonderful villa. Thank you to Nicola who was always available to answer any queries we had and arranged for us to leave out cases at the villa after check out so we could arrange for taxi to collect us on our last day.

    We have stayed here many years ago and still loved it we were 4 adults and two children aged 6 and 8 and it was perfect for us. We mostly ate in using the barbecue and kitchen and it worked very well. The pool is very good for young children.

    The villa lies just outside the village of Vámos, which has a great selection of restaurants and cafes. It is ideally located a short drive to the lovely local beaches to the North and Chania and Rethimno both a short drive away. We loved the outside space and pool area, which offered spectacular views towards the White Mountains. We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 weeks at the villa and hope to return to further explore the area.

    Spent a wonderful 11 nights at the villa. A extremely clean and well equipped property and much larger than it looks in the photos. Pool area is lovely and remains in the sunshine all day although there are many shady areas around the property in which to relax out of the sun. Great location for exploring this lovely island. We especially recommend snorkelling at Octopus Bay for a memorable experience. Plenty to do do but also the perfect place to relax. Would highly recommend to friends and family

    We had a wonderful stay at the villa. Nicola, the owner, was attentive and welcoming. The house lacked nothing - we even enjoyed the guitar!! We were 4 adults and we constantly felt we had lots of space, privacy and quiet. From the beautiful gardens to the refreshing pool to the vistas from the villa - it was perfect. We were located in the beautiful Vamos with its many tavernas, bakeries and shops. It was one of the most relaxing vacations any of us had experienced with the slow pace of life in the many villages we visited the perfect antidote to our more rushed living. We would return in a minute to fall back into the beauty, the always amazing food and, of course, the beaches of unbelievable beauty of Crete.

    What with the wonderful villa and its magnificent views of the mountains from the swimming pool terrace; the ever so helpful owners who were there to ensure the stay went smoothly and the good fortune to have two weeks of gloriously sunny weather our holiday was just perfect in every way. We couldn’t recommend it more highly and would definitely love to come back in the future.
