Location Overview – Meet Atsipades Village TO SEE: Kefali Villa is located in Atsipades village, a small yet picturesque settlement set toward the center of a large bay, embraced by dramatic mountain scenery. The village offers a peaceful, authentic Cretan atmosphere, ideal for guests seeking tranquility and natural beauty. Just a short drive away, the nearby village of Koxare provides a convenient local cafe and tavern. Plakias, a well-known seaside resort, is located 20 minutes from the villa by car. Once a quiet fishing village, Plakias has evolved into a vibrant destination while retaining its strong connection to nature and the sea. TO DINE: While Atsipades itself is a traditional village, dining options can be found nearby in Koxare and, more extensively, in Plakias. Along Plakias’ main road, visitors will discover a wide selection of restaurants, traditional tavernas, cafés, and beach bars offering both local and international cuisine. Dining here is complemented by the relaxed seaside setting, where Cretan hospitality, fresh ingredients, and local products take center stage. TO EXPLORE: Plakias is renowned for its natural beauty and excellent facilities. The long sandy beach is fully organized with sunbeds, umbrellas, changing rooms, and showers, while tamarisk trees provide natural shade. The surrounding rocky areas are ideal for fishing and snorkeling, and the coastal road is perfect for walking or cycling. Plakias also serves as an excellent base for exploration, with scenic coastal walks toward Souda, inland routes to traditional villages such as Sellia and Mirthios—known for spectacular sea views—and a coastal track leading west to Souda, Rodakino, Frangokastello, and Sfakia beaches. For outdoor enthusiasts, the area offers plentiful walking routes, mountain biking, and cycle touring, as well as access to the lush high countryside beyond the coastal mountain range north of the town.

There is a large area for eating, barbecuing, and playing together for the whole group in the evenings. The area is very private and has a beautiful garden and it was wonderful to see the stars during the night. It is close to several cute beaches for beach days and a few fun hiking locations.

The terraces and the outside oven and bbq are an absolute plus. The houses are nice and well furnished, only downside is the few kitchen utensils that are present (lack of knives, cutting boards, ...). But we take that with a smile. Very nice experience! ##### Jeroen V.

It is a lovly place and we enjoyed every moment there. The way up the hill is tricky in the beginning, but one gets used to it quickly. The villa itself has a large outside area with many possibilitys for the kids to play. The houses are comfortable but we rearly spent time inside and used the outdoor areas and the poolside instead to eat our meals alltogehter. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 12 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carol L., Twickenham, UK 4 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Tranquil haven in a glorious location Our family of 5 adults, including our son and his partner plus another son stayed in this property in June 2022\. We had 2 x villas, one for ourselves and one for our sons which was rather special. The villas are old and beautiful. The views and location are wonderful. There is so much outside space, you can all enjoy your own privacy and have sun/shade/part shade whenever you want. There was also great play equipment for younger children. We were fortunate to have sunny weather every day 28- 35C, with a lovely breeze from the mountains. There are 4-5 cove style beaches within a 20-30 min drive. The drive is an absolute pleasure - down the mountain and through a spectacular gorge. We generally shopped on the way home but there is a nearby "super market" around 10 mins drive . Katrina our host/owner was very helpful and quick to respond. Think Villa staff were also very attentive. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday and would definitely recommend this accommodation. Thank you all very much, Carol and family ##### Carol L.

Die An-und Abfahrt ist sehr eng und steil. Wir hatten einen kleineren Mietwagen und einen Transporter und durften etwa 30 m außerhalb des Grundstücks parken. Das ist vielleicht das einzigste Mako des Ferienhauses. Aber da gewöhnt man sich daran. Das Haus teilt sich in drei getrennte Wohnbereiche. Für Familien/Freunde prima. Jeder hat seinen eigenen Eingang. Zum Kochen/Geschirrmäßig gestaltet es sich deshalb etwas kompliziert, wenn alle gemeinsam essen möchten. Ist aber auch machbar. Wir gingen eh gerne in der weiteren Umgebung essen. Das ist sehr zu empfehlen. Köstlich und preislich günstiger als zu Hause😋 Die komplette Anlage wurde regelmäßig und sorgfältig gepflegt und gereinigt. Wir bekamen frisch bezogene Betten und frisch duftende Handücher/Badetücher. Da fühlt man sich gleich wie Zuhause. Der Outdoorbereich hatte alles, was unser Herz begehrte. Sauberer Pool, ausreichend Liegen u Schirme, Schatten-und Sonnenplätze, einen großzügigen Grillplatz, den wir ebenfalls gerne nutzten. Alles sauber gepflegt. Hervorheben möchte ich auch die wunderbare Gastfreundschaft von Katerina und Giannis. Egal, was wir fragten oder benötigten, wurde uns direkt beantwortet und geholfen. Stavroula, unsere Putzfee, hat uns ebenfalls umsorgt. Wir haben definitiv vor, wieder zu kommen. Die Lage abseits vom Touristenrummel, traumhafte Strandbuchten mit glasklarem Wasser, herzliche Griechen…was will man mehr im Urlaub in einem Ferienhaus 🇬🇷❤️ ##### Andrea H.

Alles sauber und gepflegt. Einziger Mangel ist die schlechte Ausstattung der Küchen. Es gibt lediglich ein Gedeck pro Person und sogar weniger Gläser als gebuchte Gäste. Die Spülmaschine befindet sich in der kleinen Wohnung, so dass wir leider oft von Hand spülen mussten. Alles in allem aber dennoch sehr empfehlenswert! ##### Marc G.

Sicherlich top für warme Tage. Wenn es kälter wird, gibt es kaltes bis lauwarmes Wasser zum Duschen, der Jacuzzi ist nicht beheizt. Bei Sturm ist zweimal der Strom ausgefallen. Heizung musste angefragt werden. Das Bett in dem Zwei-Personen-Haus ist definitv zu klein für zwei Erwachsene. Auf Wunsch wurde ein Extrabett dazugestellt, dann gings. ##### Ruth S.

Naturen omkring er flot med bjerge og kløfter, hvor man kan vandre. Stranden i nærheden fin. Køkkenet må godt have bedre udstyr feks knive og der er en kedelig lugt fra nogle afløb. Trods dette varm anbefaling, plads til mange. ##### birgitte munch j.

Orientation Nord donc ensoleillée juste en matinée. Piscine non chauffée comme le jacuzzi. Jardin, extérieur superbes. Coin barbecue extra. Côté maisons, pas si propre, poussière, tâches... volets grinçants sans cesse, ancien pressoir donc l'air passe partout surtout au niveau des portes. On entend tout d'une chambre à l'autre. Les portes sont dures et font beaucoup de bruit, souvent touchants le sol. Peu de matériel de cuisine ou ustensile. Escalier en colimaçon assez dangereux dans la 1ere résidence (Attention), chambre du bas sans fenêtre ni clarté. Salle de bain à l'étage dans un ancien placard donc porte contre cabinet et douche débordante, dommage. Endroit très paisible et joli, le paysage superbe. Voiture obligatoire car 1er commerce à 10kms. Le voisinage est exceptionnel, les villageois gentils, accueillants, aidants. L'entrée pour accéder au domaine est hyper dangereuse, une allée montante et tournant sans sécurité avec le vide en contrebas et étroitesse du passage entre les maisons sans oublier un revêtement déglingué. Nous avons préféré laisser la voiture dans la rue 100mts plus bas, super les allers-retours avec la côte. Dommage, il ne manque pas grand chose pour en faire une superbe adresse. ##### Pascal F.

Un petit village où les gens sont ouverts, communiquants malgré la barrière de la langue. La villa Kefali est très bien entretenue avec 2 maisons dont une divisée en 2 appartements, un immense espace extérieur, c'est là que nous vivions principalement, il y a tout ce qu'il faut, une immense table face au barbecue, evier, réfrigérateur et la piscine sans oublier tous les coins où chacun peut s' isoler parmi les fleurs et arbres fruitiers. Nous avons été accueilli comme des rois avec un service irréprochable ( Katerina et son équipe réactifs dès que nous les contactions 👍)et même des petits cadeaux. Je conseille fortement la villa Kefali 🤩 Des vacances de rêve dans un endroit magnifique à 10 mn des gorges de Kourtaliotiko et 20 mn Plakias où on trouve tous commerces et plages. C'est la 3ème fois que je visite la Crête et j'adore tout, les crétois, la nature, les paysages. Je prévois déjà ma 4ème venue😁 ##### Brigitte v.

Es war ausreichend Geschirr vorhanden und in der größten Wohnung konnten wir auch bei schlechtem Wetter gemeinsam Essen. Geschlafen haben wir sehr gut, es war sehr ruhig, nur die Glocken der Schafe läuteten nachts leise.
