Die Bäder sind recht alt und die Einrichtung ist in die Jahre gekommen. Zum Beispiel schließen die meisten Zimmertür nicht. Die Küchenausrüstung ist unzureichend und wurde auch auf Nachfrage nicht ergänzt. Die Umgebung ist sehr nett, vor allem die fußläufige Entfernung nach Maroulas. Allerdings wird man jede Nacht durch bellende Hunde geweckt. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 14 nights in Jul 2022 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 8 Jun 2022 #### It was a beautiful spacious well-equipped villa in a peaceful location approx 7 mins drive from t... It was a beautiful spacious well-equipped villa in a peaceful location approx 7 mins drive from the center of Platanes and Rethymno where you can find plenty of life and entertainment if you want it. There is an excellent beach nearby and also great restaurants and bars within a few minutes walk from the villa and the sea/beach is only 5 minutes drive away. Otherwise, the villa is cozy and rooms are comfortable with nice beddings. Couldnt fault the villa at all. We visited Bali, Georgioupoli, and Rethymno a couple of times and really enjoyed tasting delicious specialties in local tavernas there. Very satisfied that we booked this villa for our current holiday destination and we definitely book it again for the next year. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jens G. 25 May 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Einfach nur WOW Unser Erwartungen wurden übertroffen, der Ausblick / Pool & die Laage bieten alles was man vom kretianischen Flair erwartet. Die Herzlichkeit mit denen uns die Dorfbewohner Maroulas begegnet sind, kann man schlecht in Worte fassen. Nach 2 Tagen fühlten wir uns fast wie Familienmitglieder. Die kleine Taverne Katarina (5 min zu Fuß entfernt) muss unbedingt besucht werden. Der Ausblick und das Geschmackserlebniss waren einmalig. Wir würden es jedem weiterempfehlen. ##### Jens G.

If you are looking for a quiet restful holiday in a private villa with perfect SEA VIEWS then this is the place for you! Great relaxed holiday at a nice quiet location, away from the main tourist strips. Villa Garifallia has a nice terrace and pool. We really enjoyed there while we were relaxing during the whole day and waited the moment to see the most beautiful sunset views. The location is also excellent for exploring other nearby places. Within only a 5-10 minute driving you are at Rethymn and Platanes, where you can enjoy their local amenities, beaches, shops, restaurants... All in all an excellent place and villa, which we highly recommend.

Enough far from the crowd places but still near to almost everything: local places to visit, restaurants, tavernas, bars...I think that the pictures accurately reflect the property. The outside and pool area were MAGNIFICENT and we all had our own privacy given the layout of the bedrooms and bathrooms. This is the first holiday we have had when we have not visited hotel resorts- and it was great to have ended up at such a well-thought-out and well-cared-for property. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor seating area and the pool. The children loved the pool and terrace and played there almost all day which in turn gave us a break too! We also visited Rethymno and Platanes and spend a great time there: tasting local food, drinking some of the local wines, swimming, sunbathing, snorkeling, etc. I found Agni to be extremely helpful & they gave us lots of useful information & contact numbers for the local area. Looking forward to booking with them again for next year. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Timothé L. 8 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Hospitalité 5 étoiles Propriété au top (si vous n'avez pas le sommeil trop léger, le réveil par les oies à 7h peut piquer), la vue + la piscine et la localisation (moyennant d'avoir un véhicule) sont juste parfaites !

The villa was ... We have just returned from the most fantastic 12 day holiday in Villa Garifallia. The villa was spotlessly clean and comfortable but it was the outside space that sets the villa apart. Gorgeous and fragrant bougainvillea framed the most breathtaking Mediterranean Sea view, ever changing and with the most glorious sunsets. We spent many a happy evening playing cards on the outside terraces both upstairs and downstairs. The pool was a very welcome oasis during the heat of the day and it too, was kept spotlessly clean by the very friendly Costos, who also worked at Katetina taverna 5mins walk from the villa. Very worth a visit to meet some super friendly and welcoming locals namely Valandes and Michael. Trips worth taking are Spinaloga, the monastery at Arkadi, and the pyschros caves although be warned very steep climb up to and down into the caves. We had an automatic car for the entire holiday which we made use of every day, even if only just for a trip to Rethymno to stroll along the beach. Would advise though a four wheel drive or at least a manual, as the roads can be very steep, somewhat challenging and not always paved!!! There is so much to discover on Crete its a magical place full of history and with wonderfully warm people. We will definitely be back and would highly recommend Villa Garifallia and Agni Travel. ##### Helen B.

The views are stunning and the outside area surrounding the villa is what sets this property apart. Car hire was going to cost between 30 -35 Euros per day and a Taxi Transfer to Rethymno takes about 10 mins and costs 30 Euros return. We decided not to hire car as it costs about the same as taxis and we could all enjoy a drink and not worry about driving. We just stocked up on supplies before getting the taxi back at night. That said we were the only family without a car in comparison with all the families staying at the other 3 villas. I think most people would recommend having a car, but its a personal choice. You must visit the Taverna Katerina in the village. The host called Vilades is a true character, the views are wonderful and the food is great. The village is like stepping back in time and is very quite, but has a special feel to it. You get a true taste of the real Greece far removed from the tourist trail. Everybody is so very friendly. The WI-FI is OK but our Kids 16 & 14 didnt think it was consistent and didnt extend to the upstair bedrooms. Not a huge deal though. I would recommend Agni Travel and also this Villa, if you want a relaxing holiday round the pool. ##### Kevin T. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Fortezza Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Fortezza-Hotel.h1486785.Hotel-Information) > > [Grecotel Creta Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Grecotel-Creta-Palace.h1100705.Hotel-Information) > > [Rimondi Grand Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Rimondi-Grand-Resort-Spa.h4925255.Hotel-Information) > > [Rethymno Mare & Water Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Rethymno-Mare-Water-Park.h1099275.Hotel-Information) > > [Camari Garden Hotel Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Camari-Garden-Hotel-Apartments.h31951529.Hotel-Information) > > [Mary Hotel & Mary Royal Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Mary-Hotel-Mary-Royal-Suites.h31114078.Hotel-Information) > > [Creta Royal - Adults only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Creta-Royal-Adults-Only.h921756.Hotel-Information) > > [White Olive Elite Rethymno - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-White-Olive-Elite-Rethymno.h45863990.Hotel-Information) > > [Cretan Sun](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Cretan-Sun.h4629371.Hotel-Information) > > [Kapsaliana Village Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Kapsaliana-Village-Hotel.h3096258.Hotel-Information) > > [Pepi Boutique Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Pepi-Boutique-Hotel.h3512277.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Rithymna Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Aquila-Rithymna-Beach.h1851789.Hotel-Information) > > [Rethymno Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Rethymno-Village.h4973216.Hotel-Information) > > [May Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-May-Beach-Hotel.h31105831.Hotel-Information) > > [Grecotel Casa Adele](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Grand-Leoniki-Residence-By-Grecotel.h14677426.Hotel-Information) > > [Avli Lounge Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Avli-Lounge-Apartments.h2946933.Hotel-Information) > > [Atermono Boutique Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Atermono-Boutique-Resort-Spa.h26893136.Hotel-Information) > > [Amnissos Residence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Bomo-Amnissos-Residence.h55521801.Hotel-Information) > > [The Syntopia Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-The-Syntopia-Hotel.h11254821.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Ideon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Hotel-Ideon.h31061668.Hotel-Information) > > [AMIRA LUXURY RESORT & SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-AMIRA-LUXURY-RESORT-SPA.h76969417.Hotel-Information) > > [Grecotel LUXME White](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Grecotel-LUXME-White-Palace-All-Inclusive.h2573709.Hotel-Information) > > [Rimondi Boutique Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Rimondi-Boutique-Hotels.h4564685.Hotel-Information) > > [Apollon Hotel Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Apollon-Hotel-Apartments.h3657311.Hotel-Information) > > [Scaleta Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Scaleta-Beach.h13420158.Hotel-Information) > > [Azul Eco Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Gortyna-Hotel.h2336536.Hotel-Information) > > [Thalassi Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Thalassi-Hotel.h12639637.Hotel-Information) > > [Palazzino Di Corina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Palazzino-Di-Corina.h1439236.Hotel-Information) > > [CHC Imperial Hotel – Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-CHC-Imperial-Palace-Hotel-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h40036846.Hotel-Information) > > [Caramel, A Grecotel Resort to Live](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-CARAMEL-Grecotel-Boutique-Resort.h8421076.Hotel-Information)
