Description

Luxury villa with large, 12 meter private pool looking over an olive grove with mountain and sea views in Vamos, Crete. 
 
Villa Chrysoula is situated on a high ridge just outside of Vamos, surrounded by mature trees, olive groves, and beautiful gardens. With magnificent views of Souda Bay and the White Mountains (Lefka Ori), this garden paradise is alive with bird song and scents of the Mediterranean. Villa Chrysoula offers plenty of space to host families and their guests. Only 500 meters from the center of the charming village of Vamos, it is close enough to walk to all amenities, but far enough to feel like you're in the countryside. 
 
The swimming-pool is surrounded by beautiful gardens and has a toddlers’ area. Sun loungers and parasols are available on the pool deck. Cook on the gas-barbecue (Weber) and eat al fresco at the outdoor dining-area.
 
The main floor of the villa has an open-plan kitchen that leads into a spacious living and dining room, made comfortable at any season with well-equipped air conditioners, ceiling fans and under floor heating. Walk directly outdoors onto the terrace, garden and pool deck via sliding doors. Guests are welcome to enjoy the acoustic guitar, board games and books.
 
The kitchen is equipped with top quality Indesit cooking and refrigeration appliances, as well as an electric orange juicer, food processor, coffee machine, and hand electric blender. All pots, pans, and kitchenware are ready for you to cook---a must with the incredible quality of local food in the Vamos  and Apokoranas area, especially the olive oil, yoghurt, honey and cheeses. 
 
The top floor features 2 double bedrooms with luxury-top mattresses, built-in wardrobes, air conditioners, ceiling fans and an adjoining bathroom/shower with bath. Both bedrooms step out onto a long, shared balcony for you to enjoy sunsets and lovely views of the Aegean Sea. 
 
The ground floor has a spacious bedroom suite equipped with 2 double beds, each with luxury top mattresses.  The ground floor suite also has built-in wardrobes, its own bathroom/shower room, with hair dryer, and can be accessed by a separate entrance making it ideal for a multiple family/group visit. 
 
The ground floor is equipped with a large laundry/utility room, which includes a clothes washing machine, clothes drying rack, and iron with board. The utility room also has an extra drinks fridge/freezer.
 
The traditional village of Vamos offers all amenities, including a 24 hour health centre, dentist, bank, school, mini markets & a variety of other stores. The village also attracts tourists interested in the archeology and history of this historic village.

Villa Chrysoula -a real gem for a great holiday!


We have recently returned from a wonderful holiday in Western Crete in May. Villa Chrysoula had everything that we needed. The owners have given a great deal of thought in making it a very comfortable and attractive home. It has large, light, sunny rooms with views to the mountains and the sea from the pool terrace and balconies.. The accommodation is very well planned and furnished, with plenty of storage space. The kitchen and utility room are particularly well equipped and will meet everyone\'s requirements with all its modern appliances. The lovely poolside terrace is surrounded by a pretty garden and it has complete privacy. The Villa is in an ideal position for exploring Western Crete, the Mountain Gorges, and the old city of Chania. The local village of Vamos, which is very close, has a number of excellent restaurants , cafes and shops, where we always received a warm welcome. We highly recommend Villa Chrysoula and enjoyed a great holiday in this beautiful part of Crete. Ian & Lyn, UK

Spacious, bright and clean. Lovely pool and well equipped house.


Pool area was great with pretty garden and lots of different shady spots to sit in. House is well equipped and had air conditioning which meant we slept well. Plenty to do in the area for our week long stay. Xani in Chania was indeed a lovely restaurant. Would also recommend the Botanical Gardens. We made shorter trips to the beaches/diving point at Almyrida, Georgiopolous (v cold!) and Kefalas. Aptera was interesting (we went early in the day) and we spent our last afternoon before a late flight on a fantastic beach at Kalathas. Vamos is just a short stroll down the hill. A couple of nice restaurants and don\'t miss ice cream and cake from the cafe next to Georgina\'s. You can get essentials from the two little supermarkets. We would certainly recommend a visit to others.

Very well designed & comfortable property


This property was very easy to find from the directions and when we arrived everything was in order. The rooms were exactly as described and thankfully the air con was very efficient. The whole rental was totally hassle free. We had a very relaxing stay at the villa that met our requirements in every aspect, we did very little sightseeing this time in Crete so I expect to return to this Villa in the near future to remedy this.
