At the end of a short track, nestling amidst a lush, fragrant forest of pine, fir, and pretty silver green olive trees, with only the sound of bird song and the hum of the cicadas to interrupt the serenity, Villa Pegasus provides both peaceful surroundings and peace of mind. If excellent value for money and privacy are important to you then you can unwind on a comfortable sun-bed next to the larger than average pool at Villa Pegasus without a care in the world. Upon entering the 4000m2 fenced and gated grounds visitors arrive at the large gravelled parking area which has natural shade from two of the villas’ many mature olive trees, and is bordered by flower beds which have been planted with colourful shrubs including oleander, roses and geranium. Extensive terracotta tiled terracing encircles Villa Pegasus giving guests plenty of room to spread out, with a choice of sun or shade. There is a grove of young cherry and olive trees with a path running through it and space for children to run around and play. The remainder of the extensive garden has been left in its natural state, in keeping with the rural surroundings, with rocky outcrops interspersed with almond, yucca, aloe, and an array of vibrant wild flowers in the spring. The sparkling 10m x 4m+ pool takes centre stage at rear of the villa and is blessed by a southerly aspect. On long hot summer days it invites you to take a very welcome cooling swim, or just lounge around on the family friendly steps in the Roman end with a refreshing icy drink. The pool terrace is well equipped with sun-beds, umbrellas, a shower, a dining table and chairs, and even a solid brick barbeque that is all set for action. When the sun goes down the enticing aroma of local produce sizzling on the grill, and pretty lighting, creates an enchanting atmosphere that enables you to relax outside enjoying amusing conversation and fine wines from the nearby Dourakis winery well into the night. Clear, balmy evenings are also perfect for star gazing, and the constellation of Pegasus, the magnificent winged horse from Greek mythology, can be seen in the Cretan night sky between July and January. Inside Villa Pegasus the comfortable, well equipped, and welcoming living accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged over 2 floors with the living room and kitchen located on the top floor in order to best appreciate the eye-catching views of the surrounding area. The bedrooms are on the ground floor where it is easy to sleep at night because it is naturally cooler (though the villa does have full air-conditioning for times when it is particularly hot outside). All 3 bedrooms boast a set of sliding glass doors which lead out on to their own private balconies that overlook the pretty Mediterranean gardens. Ideal for leisurely breakfasts, lingering dinners, or even just lazing around reading the latest best seller, the upstairs main balcony runs along one end of the spacious living room. Shaded by a cypress wood pergola with a terracotta tiled roof, the balcony is equipped with a dining table and chairs, and a couch and coffee table, and has sweeping views to the glorious White Mountains in the south, and peeping out over the top of a quintessentially Cretan landscape of woodland and higgledy-piggledy low stone walls, there is the brilliant blue of the sea to the north. A pleasant 300m amble down the track that leads to Villa Pegasus brings you to the unspoilt hamlet of Xirosterni which is one of the most picturesque villages in the area and is made up of a few narrow lanes, small chapels, ruins, and sympathetically renovated traditional houses. Everyday essentials can be bought from the well-stocked village shop and unhurried drinks (and occasionally snacks) can be had at the rustic, grapevine covered kafenion. On August 5th and 6th every year this sleepy enclave comes alive when the villagers honour the Saviour Christ (also the name of the main church) by putting on a fabulous feast for anyone who would like to participate. The sound of music, exuberant dancing, and huge amounts of food sizzling away on barbeques, continues into the early hours of the morning, and much merriment is had by all. Just 3kms away are Vamos and Gavalohori where there are a good selection of tavernas, cafes, and shops, and an easy drive of 6km on one quiet country road brings you to the popular and charming village of Almyrida with its Blue Flag sandy beaches, small fishing harbour, choice of seaside tavernas, many shops, and excellent amenities. \*\*\* N.B. Villa Pegasus is situated on the plot of land next to Villa Margaret, an almost identical villa with 3 bedrooms that we also handle. For larger families or groups of friends looking to holiday together whilst still retaining a good amount of independence and privacy, booking both villas together would be a superb option.

EOT (Greek Tourist Board) License Number: MHTE 1042K92003025901 \*\*\* As of January 01, 2024, the Greek government have replaced the old “bed tax” with a new tax that is applied to all stays in short-term rental accommodation in Greece. The Climate Resilience Levy is a response to the devastating forest fires and floods that Greece has experienced in recent years, with the government hoping to generate extra funding that will go towards financing reconstruction, supporting victims, and increasing the country’s defences against future natural disasters. The owners of all short-term rental accommodation are legally obliged to collect the Climate Resilience Levy as a separate tax for all overnight stays (per villa) as follows: In 2024: €10.00 per night on stays between March 01 and October 31, and €4.00 per night on stays between November 01 and February 28/29. In 2025: €15.00 per night on stays between March 01 and October 31, and €4.00 per night on stays between November 01 and February 28/29. The Vrbo system does not have a section for collecting the Climate Resilience Levy and we have, therefore, had to add it to the billing section as an extra fee which will show on the booking as a Host Fee (until Vrbo update their system). Whilst we understand the potential budget concerns of our guests, this tax/levy is beyond our control and we hope that our guests see this as a way of contributing to the protection of the planet and the beautiful area where they are holidaying. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the villa: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Outdoor shower - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Stereo - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property - Note from host: No smoking inside the villa. ### Services and conveniences - Concierge services - Housekeeping (limited availability) - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - In the mountains - Near a hospital - Near the bay - Near the sea ### Things to do - Optional golf privileges - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Spelunking nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Water skiing nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,076 square feet ## Similar properties ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/75000000/74440000/74434400/74434306/2c9c9d54.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 3 bedroom villa common pool Παλαιλώνι - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi 8.8 Excellent 6 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-15&endDate=2025-10-16&selected=74434306&PinnedHotelID=74434306&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/37000000/36980000/36977600/36977574/e334ebad.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cosy Traditional Villa - Private Pool - Perfect for families with children Χανια - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi 7.4 Good 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-15&endDate=2025-10-16&selected=36977574&PinnedHotelID=36977574&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby, sun-loungers](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/25000000/24260000/24256500/24256497/b3dbeb5a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### CRÊTE, beautiful villa with swimming pool and fantastic sea view on souda bay Chania - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi 9.6 Exceptional 41 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-15&endDate=2025-10-16&selected=24256497&PinnedHotelID=24256497&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33600000/33592300/33592286/f55e9d85.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lovely villa with 40m2 pool with Roman steps and panoramic sea views Chania - Sea view - Pool - Kitchen - Washer 9.6 Exceptional 16 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-15&endDate=2025-10-16&selected=33592286&PinnedHotelID=33592286&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/94000000/93450000/93444500/93444474/7f92477a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beautiful Stone Villa with peaceful setting, private pool and lovely sea views.

Property was immaculately clean Pool amazing Agent and local property management were great Friendly feedback and observations are: - Entrance Gate broken and there was no ‘Villa Pegasus’ signage (at main road entrance or by the gate) - Some batteries need replacing in the AC & TV remote control(s) but minor things.. - Beds were on the firm side. Pillows a bit bulky and foam v feather which is only a personal point of view.. No criticisms intended, great villa and super peaceful location… highly recommended.. ##### Colin T.

The area around the villa is very rural and quiet, we really enjoyed our time lazing around the pool, which is totally secluded and well equipped.There were plenty of comfortable loungers and umbrellas, and the pool was still a comfortable 24 to 25DegC. The track up to the villa is quite rough, but perfectly OK with care in our normal hire car. Although in a slightly remote area, a good selection of coastal villages are 10 or 20 minutes away, which was not a problem for us. Inside the villa was well appointed, but showing it's age a little, with a number of things not working quite as they should. The local agent promptly dealt with those which were important to us, the villa needs being lived in for a while, to identify and resolve the minor problems which would make this an almost perfect destination. ##### Tony B. Stayed 14 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 16 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Schöner Aufenthalt in einer ruhigen Gegend Das Haus an sich war sehr schön und im Großen und Ganzen gut in Schuss. Ein paar Schönheitsfehler, über die man aber getrost hinwegsehen konnte. Zweimal in der Woche wurden die Handtücher getauscht und die Bäder gereinigt und sogar der Müll entsorgt! Dank hier an Fiona und Ihr Team. Das einzige Manko war, das das Tor zum Haus kaputt war und somit zwei Wochen alles offen stand und im Grunde jeder auf das Gelände konnte. Wir wurden im Vorfeld darauf hingewiesen das Tor immer geschlossen zu halten, damit kein freilaufendes Getier (Schafe und Ziegen) auf das Gelände gelangen konnten, aber das hat scheinbar die Agentur doch nicht sos her gestört, dass das Tor kaputt war. Was man auf alle Fälle einmal austauschen müsste sind die Pfannen. Die waren beide unter aller Kanone (zerkratzt und verbogen). Solche Pfannen benutze ich zu Hause nicht mehr. Ansonsten alles da, was man braucht, außer kleine scharfe Messer. Aber da wir das bereits aus anderen Häusern kennen, sind wir darauf vorbereitet und haben uns welche mitgebracht. Auch wenn uns der Aufenthalt gefallen hat, würden wir dieses Haus nicht mehr buchen, da es auf Kreta genug schöne Strände gibt und man einen eigenen Pool nicht zwingend braucht. Auch war das Wasser darin viel zu kalt, Das Meer war wärmer. Auch ist man viel unterwegs, weil es viel zu sehen gibt. Auf alle Fälle ist Kreta eine oder mehrere Reisen wert. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 14 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Francois G. 25 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Vacances parfaites, tranquilles pour apprécier la Crète Villa idéalement placée, au calme, dans un village avec toutes les facilités, proximité Chania, Rethymon, mer, et nombreuses sorties possibles dans un rayon <1h en voiture ##### Francois G.

Alles was man benötigt (Taverne, Mini-Markt, Strand usw.) befindet sich in Reichweite von 5 bis 20 Minuten. Kein hektischer Lärm durch Touristenhochburgen, einfach "in the middle of nowhere". Wir haben in der Villa Pegasus einen sehr entspannten und erholsamen Urlaub genossen. 3 Schlafzimmer mit Klimatisierung im Erdgeschoß. Eine großzügige und moderne Wohnküche mit allen Geräten und Utensilien im Obergeschoß. Zwei moderne Bäder. Entspannend ist das Frühstück auf dem nördlich gelegenen Balkon des Wohnbereich gewesen; ein perfekter Start in den Tag. Ebenso der Sprung früh oder abends in den hauseigenen Pool. Das Haus ist 2008/09 erbaut, modern eingerichtet und sehr gepflegt. Jedes Zimmer hat eine eigene Terrasse oder Balkon. Genug Fläche / Ort sich zurückzuziehen. Die großzügige Terrasse am Pool bietet genügend Platz zum ungestörten relaxen. Perfekter Service; sollte etwas nicht ganz in Ordnung sein oder nicht funktionieren genügt ein kurzer Anruf. Eine Empfehlung für den welcher Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit liebt und nicht davor scheut 20 Minuten zu einem der nächsten tollen und empfehlenswerten Strände zu fahren. Oder auch als Ausgangsort für andere Erkundungen und Tagestouren. Es gibt sehr viele empfehlenswerte Tavernen im nahen Umkreis mit natürlich rein griechischer Küche und Flair; ein MUß! Besonders die liebevolle und freundliche Bedienung welche wir dort erfahren haben! Der Mini-Markt in 5 Minuten Fußmarsch hat 7 Tage die Woche geöffnet und bietet alles für den Grundbedarf. Villa Pegasus steht bei uns ganz oben für einen der nächsten Aufenthalte auf Kreta! ##### Olaf D.

There are spectacular views of the mountains on one side and views to the coast from the first floor terrace. It’s very easy to reach Gavalohori and Vamos from the Villa, and easy to drive to Kalyves and Chania. ##### Tim D.

En conclusion c’était malgré ces petits détails très bien ! ##### Jean Claude c.

Endroit très calme, nous avions juste une villa à côté de nous autrement les champs, vue sur la montagne et la mer. La villa est bien entretenue de l'extérieur, intérieur propre (vaisselle un peu sale). Je remercie Frankie et ses collègues, elles ont toutes été très réactives et ont répondu à toutes nos demandes. Les personnes qui viennent faire le ménage sont très souriantes. Chose importante il n'y a pas trois salles de bains mais deux. La villa apparaît dans les recherches quand on sélectionne 3 salles de bains mais ce n'est pas le cas .... ##### marie b.
