Villa Nynemia
Almyrida - Villa
Availability and prices
Accommodation
Description
Enjoying glorious sea views and a tranquil rural setting, Villa Nynemia is within fairly easy walking distance of the sandy beaches, shops and tavernas of Almyrida, especially in the cool of the evening.
Elegant furniture, quality kitchen and bathroom fittings (with English plumbing) are all part of Penny, the charismatic owner's philosophy that guests who really enjoy their stay are likely to return.
The beautiful salt filtered pool (no chlorine) is surrounded by sunbeds with a wonderful double sun bed under the Pergola.
Location Almyrida
Standing on a terraced hillside a little under 2 km from Almyrida, Villa Nynemia is set amongst 6,000 sq m. of olive groves. It's a 25min hilly walk into the laid back small resort of Almyrida with mini markets and other small shops and taverna tables on the waterfront.
2 kms inland, the pretty village of Gavalohori offers a further choice of excellent tavernas and a baker amongst its streets.
The beautiful Venetian harbours of Chania and Rethymnon are both easy to visit from Villa Nynemia and a trip into the nearby mountains is unmissable.

Over the last few years we have stayed in several Freelance villas, in Kefalonia and Crete, and this was the best we have stayed in so far.
Location is excellent. Less than an hour's drive from Xania airport, and less than 30 minutes walk from Almyrida beach. Almyrida is a small, fairly busy resort, with an excellent selection of places to eat and drink, from traditional Greek tavernas to a sophisticated rooftop cocktail bar. There are also some nice tavernas in the nearby village of Gavalohori. The villa itself is spacious and well equipped. The veranda at the front and rear balcony mean that you can always sit in the sun or shade, and the view from the rear balcony over Souda Bay is spectacular, especially at sunset. The pool was lovely and well-maintained, and the villa itself was clean with all the plumbing and electrics working as they should, (sadly this is often not the case in Greek holiday accommodation.) Nectarios, the owner was friendly and helpful, and there was even a chocolate cake waiting for us in the fridge when we arrived! We are seriously considering returning to Villa Nynemia next year. |

The owners Penny and her husband (Nictarios?) are so kind and so welcoming. There was a very good welcome pack, as well as a magnificent vegan-friendly cake, and Penny arrived with presents for our two grandsons who had their birthdays while we were there. The servicing is excellent and carried out with least disturbance to the occupants, and Nictarios insisted on coming to clean the pool after strong winds, in spite of having a very bad back at the time. The views are wonderful, and the grounds are great for exploring and games. We enjoyed lemons from the tree and various herbs we found. Wonderful time had by all. Enormous thanks to the owners for their efforts.

We had a wonderful week at Villa Nynemia with our 3 year old son and our 8 month old daughter. The villa is perfectly equipped (and ideal with children if you are attentive to the stairs and the edge of the pool), super quiet, with views of the sea and the surrounding mountains. The pool and garden are beautiful and we enjoyed a lot, even in early May. Penny and her husband were very warm, welcoming (special mention for the delicious chocolate cake and raki) and extremely accomodating! All the ingredients are here for an idyllic holiday! "

Wow! Villa Nynemia - what a find! I spent a wonderful few days here after extending my holiday in Crete. The villa is in a great location, 2km from the shops and tavernas and the beautiful beach. It is quiet and secluded, situated in a beautiful garden with great from every aspect.
The villa was immaculately presented and had all amenities that one would expect. Penny was a great host who gave me all the required info on arrival and was available to answer any questions I had. It really was a home from home and I immediately felt comfortable in the villa. There was a lovely gift of a home made chocolate cake and other goodies in the fridge. Ah, and then there was the pool - again beautifully presented and fantastic views towards the sea (even when in the pool!) It was hard to drag myself out of it. I will definitely be heading back next year and this time might even treat the family - it's an experience everyone should encounter! |

This villa is even better in real life than it is in the photos. The gardens and pool area are beautifully maintained with the most glorious views. We were a family of 3 adults and 3 children and the villa was perfect for all of us - it's extremely clean, very well looked after and has everything we needed including clean sheets and maid service. The location is wonderful - far enough away to feel secluded but 5 minutes from the villages of Almerida and Kalyves which both have brilliant beaches and tavernas. Our holiday really exceeded expectations, we didn't expect to love Crete as much as we did. Highlights included the village of Gavalohri (the restaurant here is exceptional), Piperakis bakery in Almerida, Georgeopolis beach (SummerLand has free loungers for a drink) and a trip to Chania. Penny is an exceptional host and met us late at night and was always on hand to answer texts and give us great recommendations. She left us the most delicious chocolate cake and really is a wonderful ambassador for the Crete. We can't wait to go back!
