"Vagelis was a wonderful host and his villa and garden were perfect for our 3-generation family holiday. We arrived at a very unsocial hour and Vagelis was there to welcome us and share delicious local provisions to start our holiday.Highly recommended."

"We had a great stay. Hotel was sparkling clean. Lovely pool and simple but very good breakfast with freshest vegetables and feta every day. Coffee machine worked well and the options for coffee were fantastic. Plenty of parking near hotel, and a nice village and great beach in walking distance were of course what we came for. I wish we stayed even longer. "

"The hotel was a lovely place to stay Near to everything you would need Not far to walk to town and the beach "

"We had the most amazing stay from start to finish. We got there after midnight due to flight times, but were offered a guide to get us there or clear directions with a code for a key box. When we got there, the property had outside lights to guide us in and a fridge with a home cooked meal in, snacks, wine, olive oil and fruit. :-). So welcoming. The next day when we woke up we realised how beautiful the villa was and the views are just stunning. There is a twisty mountain road to get up to the villa but it’s very quiet. You’ll see more goats than cars. Take your time and enjoy the scenery and all is well. The pool was spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable, the showers wonderful and it was very well equipped. The villa is within half an hour of Rethymno which is delightful. We were also within an easy drive of Knossos, Chania, Heraklion and Lake Kournas. One day however, we just stayed home and enjoyed the relaxation of the villa. :-)As we had a super late flight home and as no one was due to arrive the day we left, our hosts kindly agreed that we could stay way beyond the check out time and enjoy our last day without rushing. We stayed until 4pm and we are so appreciative of the kindness. We even received a parting gift. I cannot recommend Harkia Villas enough. Simply stunning. X. "

"Quiet and quirky. Everything one needed. Excellent for hiking trips. One needs a car. Very good breakfast."

"The house was a lovely old Cretan house renovated to a high standard, and Popi was a wonderful, helpful, and knowledgeable host - really friendly and full of suggestions of where to go next. You will need to have a car to get around as it is not at all central, and do not expect a modern building - but it was full of character and the aircon worked very well, so in my eyes it was perfect! I would happily stay here again, and hope to do so some day in the coming years."

"Thank you so much Zacharias for a relaxing 11 nights in your beautiful villa. We had the best time and from first booking the villa to leaving the villa, your kindness and helpfulness was amazing. Your villa is so peaceful and in a lovely country setting but within easy reach of local tavernas and shops. Thank you for the lovely meal, drinks etc which greated us on arrival and thank you for the kind gifts on leaving. We will definitely return. Amazing holiday in a beautiful villa "

"Great villa in a village with good amenities. The pool is nice with a fabulous view, and there are numerous spaces to relax and eat around the villa at different times of the day. Check in/out was very easy and the host was very prompt with help to sort out any issues."

"The hotel is a bit run down. The rooms are fine but rather antiquated. The view from the pool is incredible as is the overall setting. The restaurant menu was a bit eccentric and the service slow. The main issue we had during the peak summer is that it’s a very quiet part of Crete but too hot to do hiking etc"
