1891 Hem framhäver avkoppling med magiska vyer i hjärtat av byn

The 1891 Home was even more beautiful than the pictures portray, and Kefalas was a perfect location to visit both Chania and Rethymno. The homemade treats and kitchen supplies were a welcome touch as we arrived late on our first bight. Alexandra was very welcoming and responsive. We would love to visit again.

We had a wonderful stay in Alexandra’s house. Stunning views and a beautifully designed house - somehow even more beautiful than the pictures. We had everything we needed for our stay; the house is very well equipped, very clean, and we had a very warm welcome. Alexandra very generously left wine, groceries and some delicious pastries - a very special touch. We would love to stay here again!

Alexandra the host made us so welcome, she even stocked the fridge with groceries, fantastic. The house is charming, extremely comfortable and every last detail has been thought of. The pool and back garden have a great view over the sea of Crete. Both local tavernas (both excellent) have grocery stores and are a pleasant 6 minute walk from the house. If you don’t know this area of Crete it’s still sleepy and totally unspoiled but really central for getting everywhere. If I could give the house 20 out of 10, I would, we loved our time staying here. Thank you

After a late arrival it was wonderful to arrive to such a warm welcome at 1891 home. The villa has such a beautiful setting but it\'s so much more than an amazing view with a wonderful pool, although those were amazing! Alexandra had really thoughtfully stocked the villa with everything you might need for a comfortable stay and the village setting is a real taste of authentic Crete with two amazing tavernas within easy walk. As our son repeatedly said, "best holiday ever!"

1891 is a truly beautiful holiday home. Alexandra, the owner, has succeeded in preserving and celebrating the history of the property as an olive mill whilst making it a modern and comfortable home with a great kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms. Her attention to detail is evident throughout. The mattresses in the bedrooms are extremely comfortable and the A/C works really well. The family and local history that are so closely woven through the property make it really special. The views through the picture window and from the fabulous infinity pool really are to die for. The pool is a good size and having an integrated toddler pool area was yet another clever touch. The welcome pack goes beyond what you might expect - generous and thoughtful. I can't recommend this holiday home highly enough. It is fantastic. The owner is truly welcoming and goes the extra mile to make sure you have a great stay.
