Overall we enjoyed our stay. We were late getting in the first night because the ferry was running behind. The directions put right at the house, it was dark so a little difficult finding the house. We were all tired. The host could not have been any nicer. He showed us around and gave us some history on the house. The beds were comfortable. The time we spent at the house we enjoyed sitting outside.. We would stay there again if ever in the area.

Delightful property with great character. Bedrooms are a good size and all have ceiling fans. The outdoor area is fantastic with plenty of seating, a pool and a beautiful garden. Location is perfect if you plan on hiring a car. We visited Rethymno, Chania and Heraklion; we even did a day trip to Elafonisi Beach. There is a taverna less than 5 mins walk away that serves food until midnight, a couple local grocery shops for your essentials, and a larger Lidl about 10 mins drive away. Manolis was an extremely helpful host and very accommodating with check-in when our flight was delayed. He also provided fascinating information on the history of the villa and gave us some recommendations on current exhibitions happening in Crete.

We enjoyed or stay at Villa Svega. Some delicious welcome treats and home baked goods were provided by the owners. This vacation rental was built around 1500, but solar hot water heating and photovoltaic solar panels have been added. We appreciated that the owner collected our fruit and vegetable waste for composting. There is no AC but there are fans. The garden and pool area is private and really beautiful, very clean. Wifi was good enough for us to stream movies. There's a nice roof terrace too. Shady outdoor seating for all times of the day. Nice neighborhood. One tavern just down the street and several good ones within a short drive. Bring mosquito repellant!
