Crete Villa Ariadne, Melidoni, Chania, Crete Solid Stone, swimming pool

Dramatic location in a small Crete village wonderfully secluded from the hustle and bustle of home, switch off and soak up a most unique experience with dramatic mountain views to the rear along with costal views to the front.

The city of Chania is only a thirty minute drive away with its harbour front restaurants and unique atmosphere.

With such breathtaking views as the background it is necessary that the Villa matches the beautiful vistas, and this house will not disappoint. It is fashioned out of solid stone, with its own heated swimming pool and garden. The traditional wood features will transport you back to an old Greece, while also allowing for the comfort of modern life; the old and the new come together in this house in a perfect symmetry.

The Villa has Air conditioning to the bedrooms.

Magical Place
There is something magical about relaxing by the pool while looking at the snow on the mountain peaks and then turning and seeing the Aegean in the distance. The hosts were wonderful and made us feel welcome without being obtrusive. The quiet at night was a peaceful respite after our time in Athens. We hope to return as the fates allow.

Great Hosts, Beautiful Home
Beautifully located in the foothills of Crete, but close to villages where you can shop for food, go to beaches, or find a nice taverna with traditional food. It was the highlight of our trip to Crete!

Fabulous villa in stunning location
I highly recommend Villa Ariadne. Spotlessly clean on arrival with a very generous welcome pack of provisions. The location is wonderful with views of the mountains and of the coastline, and with a generous sized swimming pool. You could easily laze away the days without moving from the villa and have a peaceful and restorative holiday. However, it's also great as a base to explore the countryside and the coast - only approx 20 mins drive to the nearest beach and 10-15 to the main east-west road that takes you to other parts of the island (car is essential if staying here). Hosts very responsive if you need anything. Cannot fault anything about the stay - truly wonderful.

Wonderful family holiday
We had a wonderful time staying at this beautiful villa. The location is truly magical. It was well equipped for families with great cot and high chair, also plastic cup/plate/bowls which was very helpful. A starter pack of ‘basics’ was also really helpful. Our daughter loved playing in the shallow walled off area of the swimming pool which she immediately claimed as hers. The owners were very responsive and helpful prior to the holiday, and lovely when we met them in Crete. Overall I would not hesitate to recommend this villa to anyone looking for a chilled holiday location.

Exactly as promised
We booked 10 days at Villa Ariadne, largely on the basis of previous reviewers' comments... They weren't wrong! The location (quiet, peaceful, relaxing, extraordinary views), the property itself (well equipped, tastefully furnished, thoughtful touches courtesy of the owners) and our hosts Samantha and Jerry (friendly, welcoming, helpful, unobtrusive) -- all lived up to the promise. Unquestionably 5 stars.

Fabulous villa
We had a fabulous holiday. The villa was just what we wanted. Situated in a quiet, beautiful setting with stunning views. The villa was perfect and well equipped. On arrival we were met by Samantha which was lovely. The little touches were thoughtful for example the welcome pack of food essentials, towels etc. You need a car to get about but we like that. Beach was 15 minutes away with lots of restaurants to choose from. The best part of the villa was definitely the pool kids loved. Would highly recommend, would certainly return

Beautiful
We had a wonderful time at this villa. Up in hills and away from it all you really get a feel for authentic western Crete. Easy to get to Chania, Chora Svakion etc but far enough away from the hustle and bustle to relax and enjoy the peaceful location. Pool was immaculate and the village Tavernas nearby were a joy. Thoroughly recommend.
