Armeni - Villa

Accommodation
Description
A sophisticated and charming Villa with the extravagant addition of an indoor *heated jacuzzi pool on the lower level, the true worth of Villa Amvrosia is in its matchless outside space. A gorgeous L shaped pool is set into the beautifully furnished deck which, thanks to its hillside setting, is built at treetop level with views of the village of Stylos perched on the lower slopes of the dramatic White Mountains.
A second, lower deck is set in a small copse and furnished with table tennis, hammock and a swing seat beside a spacious fully equipped barbecue kitchen and dining area.
The villa's landscaped gardens have been chiseled out of the stony Cretan hillside and there’s even a pretty aviary holding a host of small birds at the entrance.
Location
Villa Amvrosia sits on a hillside on the edge of the small and charming village of Armeni where there is a choice of tavernas, a coffee shop, minimarket and butcher/deli. There are deliveries of fresh, locally baked bread to the small cafenion of Michael's in the centre.
Just 4.3 kms away, the low key seaside resort of Kalyves has lovely shallow shelving sandy beaches and a good choice of tavernas by the waters edge. Beyond Kalyves is the next seaside village of Almyrida which again has shallow waters and sandy beaches plus numerous tavernas and cafes.

- Once again Villa Amvrosia delivered all we could have hoped for.A comfortable villa set in rural countryside with only the sounds of the country to disturb the peace. Carefully and intelligently designed for both sun and shade lovers. The pool and its surrounds is a delight and the views of the mountains spectacular.
Just wonderful and when coupled with the generosity of the hosts truly splendid, I just wish it could have been longer. |

The villa is very spacious and well appointed and provided plenty of room for 4 adults (myself, my wife and two adult sons). The kitchen was well equipped, the bedrooms comfortable and furnished with good quality mattresses (always a key consideration for me) and there was copius hot water for showering. The outside areas are extensive and provide plenty of spaces for some quiet time. The pool is excellent, there are plenty of sunbeds and the layout ensures there is always somewhere shady to sit if you need to get out of the midday sun. There is also a very well placed and comfortable hammock that got well used! The Cretan barbecue area provides a great cooking alternative and has a second fridge which was very useful for maintaining a good supply of chilled drinking water and other beverages. Overall very pleased adn would definitely consider re-booking if returning to Cre

Beautiful villa - we’ve stayed in quite a few and this tops the lot. Just as advertised, if not better. We arrived to a fruit basket, wine and biscuits. The villa was very clean and simply decorated inside. Lovely balconies and we loved the very private pool area. We loved being surrounded by nature (the dawn chorus here is unreal!) - beautiful views across to the mountains with glorious sunsets. The added extras (table tennis and jacuzzi) kept us entertained.
Great location near the village and two small sandy beaches (Kalyves and Almyrida). We ate in the big restaurant in Armenoi village three times….beware the huge portions - “appetisers” are more like big sharing plates! The local coffee shop also does pancakes and omelettes for breakfast. |

Everything about this villa was pleasant. It was clean, quiet and homely. Our stay in Crete was wonderful as a result. The view from every sitting place was beautiful and uninterrupted. A short drive overall from Chania airport and plenty of room for parking outside. The local restaurants were a great find. Additionally all the furniture was attractive and of a great quality. We felt very spoilt. Thank you so much. I will definitely be using Freelance Villas again.

What a gorgeous villa and beautiful surroundings. We had very much wanted privacy and peace and quiet which is exactly what we got. Knowing Kalyves and Almirida well, we were looking for somewhere close by and this was perfect. The pool area and outside areas were simply lovely, enabling you to either chase the sun all day or escape into a shady area. The views are stunning with the mountains all around. The pool itself is just fabulous and we spent most of our time floating around! The evenings were lovely sitting in the warm air and enjoying a G&T under the stars. Bed was very comfortable and view from master bedroom just stunning. We didn't use the jacuzzi and whilst we absolutely loved the Cretan Kitchen, we only used once as couldn't get the extractor to work so the room filled with smoke pretty quickly. Plenty of amenities in the village to get you by including a fantastic butchers. The welcome pack enabled us to have a glass of wine on our late arrival and some fresh water before heading down to the bakery the following morning for breakfast supplies. Kalyves is a very short drive for one of my favourite beaches and plenty of tavernas for delicious food. We will definitely return!

Very nice and great house and a very generous pool and eating areas., air conditioned works perfectly, everything for daily use is already there and in sufficient quantities for our 12 nights stay (soap, toilet paper, dish washing stuff, towels, sheets, baby crib and chair, etc...), the kitchen has everything we need, TV with android and Chromecast, showers and toilets everywhere, washing machine with capsules, ..., you name it, he house has it. We didn't use the inside jaccuzi / pool often as it was the summer and we liked the outside pool quite much. The outside of the house however is what really makes this house exceptional : large sunny pool, different spaces around the pool to relax (and tan time of the day you'll find both areas in direct sunlightin shades), large BBQ house which looks more like a second full stuffed kitchen, and a lot of different places with sunbeds, outside chairs, couches and mattresses, gardens and stairs that means every step you take is making you discover a new relaxing / playing area (ping pong table, hammock, etc...). Large trees are everywhere, and the view of the mountains and little hill villages is stunning. That is without mentioning the balconies in which we had pleasure eating. Location is perfect for what we wanted with a small baby : very calm, alone in the mountains, but still some neighbours too far away, and the lovely Armeni village at a 10 minutes walk3 minutes drive. Armeni is a very typical village in where you'll find life pleasant and relaxing, with a beautiful church en large trees in the village. You'll find a mini-market there, and also a fresh shop (which sells mostly meat, cheese and frozen fish). We went on a regular basis to the 2 restaurants located in the center of the village and we never were disappointed : great local food for a budget money. Kalyves beach is 5-10 minutes drive away, and Chania is 25 minutes drive away. We felt as we had a secluded very calm house, but still could go anywhere in very reasonable time. Services provided by Freelance Villas were also very nice : house cleaning every 4 days, pool always clean, fast answers to e-mails if we had inquiries. And they are providing all this services with extreme discretion : we never found out who cleaned the pool. It's pretty simple : although we really feel at home in Villa Amvrosia, the hotel-style services provided added a degree of comfort we did not expect. To sum-up : great house and vacations, we recommend it fully.

The Villa is perfectly equipped for a family getaway with all little details starting with pool towels and ending with the nice little touches like fresh local fruitsa chilled bottle of wine in the fridge. Freelance were very responsive and accommodating, we're so grateful for extra heated pool for the colder days! Definitely recommend to anyone looking to experience calm and relaxing holidays on Crete.

We adored this wonderful and spacial beautiful Vila. We had everything we needed and even more. We enjoyed the silence, the beautiful mountains in the back. And woke up with so much birds songs what was very lovely. The Vila has everything, as well in the kitchen, as towels to use and the swimming pool is marvelous. Every night we enjoyed the beautiful stars on the porch. Its situated so lovely in the small village where you can get fresh bread and fruits in the morning. The Greek people are very! nice and polite. Also the beach was small but perfect. And there was a good supermarket and enough restaurants to chose from. You enjoyed our stay here very much!

We had a wonderful stay with our 3 kids at the villa Amvrosia. We ideally wanted a place that wasn't too far from the city but also not in the middle of the hustle bustle and Villa Amvrosia was just perfect! The village is very close, everything you see more
We had a wonderful stay with our 3 kids at the villa Amvrosia. We ideally wanted a place that wasn't too far from the city but also not in the middle of the hustle bustle and Villa Amvrosia was just perfect! The village is very close, everything you need is there including some really great local tavernas! The villa is fully equipped with everything you need if you need to cookbbq. The hosts left some food and wine for us when we arrived which was very thoughtful. We enjoyed some lovely bbq's, swam in the pool, played table tennis and read a book in the hammock
