Villa Vangelis Stylos Crete

From the moment of booking Villa Vangelis, Freelance Villas provided us with friendly and helpful information. No need to buy travel guides - it was all there in the Villa Guide, from local insider information regarding local tavernas, sights and shopping, to recommendations further afield. Directions to the Villa were impeccable - Villa Vangelis is a little'out of the way' - but the directions took us straight there. On arrival, Villa Vangelis lived up to all our expectations and beyond. Fabulous views, gorgeous pool area, and comfortable outside, shaded living area. We particularly appreciated that the outside area was well lit for the longer October evenings. (Lights could also be switched off to appreciate the star lit night sky.) A great choice of really good tavernas within a short drive. We particularly liked the understated and closest beach at Kyani Akti with its simple taverna offering delicious food, good service and a few sun beds. Also a lovely walk along the beach to Kalives. Overall a wonderful experience provided by the very friendly, but politely distanced staff at Freelance Villas. Couldn't recommend more highly both Freelance Villas and Villa Vangelis.

It's a lovely villa, very well kept. Excellent pool and good facilities, although the shower room is a tad small. You need to be much more explicit about the condition of the road up from Stylos. There is nothing in the booking info online about how rough the road is. To say, in the info provided AFTER booking, that it's a "bumpy country road" is economical with the truth. I've driven many rough and unmade roads but that is the worst public road I've ever driven over, and right at the limits of what a Nissan Micra could cope with. If I'd known in advance how bad it was I'd have booked a 4WD car.

Ein wunderschönes Anwesen inmitten eines am Hang gelegenen Olivenhains. Ein typisches kretisches Steinhaus, sehr umfangreich mit alllem ausgestattet was den Aufenthalt angenehm macht. Ein Geländegängiges Fahrzeug (wir hatten einen T-Cross) ist erforderlich, um dieses 7 min. vom Dorf Stylos Abseits gelegene Mediterrane Nest zu erreichen. Die Aussicht in die Souda Bucht ist sensationell. Wer absolute Ruhe, neben den Geräuschen der Natur, liebt ist hier richtig. Vaso und Vangelis sind äußerst gastfreundliche Eigentümer die sofort auf jeden Wunsch reagieren. Die 2x wöchentliche Poolreinigung und auch sonstiges Housekeeping wird von Ihnen selbst durchgeführt. Es macht Freude sich bei der Gelegenheit mit diesen voller positiver Energie aufgeladenen Menschen zu unterhalten. Man fühlt sich als wenn man zur Familie gehören würde. Die gesamte professionelle Organisation und die vorbereitenden Informationen über Freelancevillas.com verdient ebenso eine Bewertung von ***** Das wird schwierig.......

Great property with everything you could require, nice pool. Great views of Kalyves and the surrounding landscape. Lovely taverna just down the road and a nice shop. Highly recommend

Villa Vangelis sits on its own among the olive groves, you look down on to the plain and all you can hear are the goat bells. This is a well equipped villa, with all you could want and an excellent pool area. Yes it is out of the way up a narrow bumpy road, and that's why we like it. Stylos nearby has tavernas, coffee shops and a mini market.
