A lovely family residence in the heart of Kalyves village.
One of the main features of Villa Argo is its location; a stone’s throw from the centre makes you feel part of village life, while being far enough out to still be private and peaceful.
The house is built on two floors with additional mezzanine.
Situated on the ground floor are, the living room, kitchen, WC and one bedroom with double bed and en suite bathroom
Upstairs you'll find a double bedroom with king size bed, a family bathroom with walk in shower. A second bedroom with twin beds and it's off this room you'll find the mezzanine.
The mezz has a bedroom area with 2 single beds and a studio couch which opens out to give an extra double or single bed (on request). It has an extra lounge area, with a library of books and games. The mezz has proved to be the favourite room for teenagers
The house was designed to take advantage of its views of the famous White Mountains, which you can enjoy from the comfort of the living room and pool area! From the 1st floor sun terrace you have views of the sea and surrounding area.
Outside there is a covered arched terrace, with picnic table for outside dining.
The garden is a mixture of olive and fruit trees and guests are invited to pick their own apricots, plums and loquats, when in season!
The pool area is a perfect location for relaxing, but for the more energetic who enjoy walking, jogging or cycling, simply turn left out of the gate and you’re already on one of the of many beautiful trails through the countryside!
The family retain a private basement annex on the property and are available to assist you with your holiday needs.
The villa doesn’t have a washing machine, but a laundry service is available on request.
Villa Argo is suitable for families and couples.
Out of respect for other local residents, young singles groups looking to ‘party’ are advised to seek alternative accommodation.
Wi-Fi services are available.
Villa Argo has a no smoking policy indoors.

Back again for our second visit, as ever George provided the perfect taxi service to any desired destination. Thank you Gail for organising all the trips, the boat trips with Dream Adventure in Almirida and Kalives Cruises with its laid back atmosphere and hospitality on board, were wonderful. The kids loved the waterpark as always, but nothing compared to your pool! Our younges quited the floaties and learned to swim (one of the many here I hear!!) Well done Gail for delivering yet another perfect holiday in a splendid home! We will be back again next year, our home from home. Callum & family - Kalle & family Sweden/NewZealand

We have been to Crete many times before but never enjoyed a holiday as much as we have here, in this beautiful villa in this wonderful town. We've spent most of our time with car parked and idle!! Everything we wanted was in the town including lovely beaches and enough high quality resturants to stay for a month and go to a new one every night! Thank you Gail for being such a wise and friendly host! We, like you, have discovered that Yorkshire & Crete is a wonderful combination! Best wishes, Alan & Carolyn

Best wishes Dennis & Ann and the Baldwin family & friends
Villa Argo
By Lynne Palmer on 26-Aug-2018
Villa Argo has been a great place to stay as a family of 8. We have all enjoyed the pool & the views and walks into Kalyves. The buses into Chania have been good and Georgos has been a great taxi driver! Thank you for arranging all the water sports in Almirida, we all had a go at paddle boarding (with varing levels of success!! haha) Chania was delightful, turtles in the harbour & the bustling little alleyways, lovely shopping! Thankyou Gail & Jason for your wonderful hospitality and all your help. Can't wait to come back! Best wishes, the Palmer family & the other Palmer family

So sad to end our fabulous stay and we have much to be grateful for. Gail you are super! So caring and thoughtful, we didn't miss the attention to detail when refreshing the house xx We explored the area a great deal and kept George and his taxi van busy. Do very much like the village of Kalyves and even Almiryda. Many good meals both at resturants and on the BBQ! Your house is a pleasure to spend time in and we hope to return next year. Our 'fish' have become better swimmers because of you! Best Wishes Callum & family - Kalle & family (Sweden)

Once again what a wonderful holiday, our second year with you!
Many thanks for everything, it was like coming home! Thank you from the girls who were delighted with all the presents you got them, your patience with all their chats! Thank you so much for organising the boat trip with Dream Adventure in Almirida, it was wonderful, the snorkelling/cave exploring, the trip was such a special end to our perfect holiday. Best Wishes, Clewley family xx

We had a great time in your villa enjoying relaxing moments in the pool, on the pool side or exploring the area. We couldn't imagine a better place to spend our Autumn-holidays! We have fallen in love with your cosy villa and the Greek mentality in general and thank you for providing a welcoming and caring home for our unique experiences here on Crete. We wish you all the best, see you next year :) The Gorol Family (Germany/Poland)

We have visited Kalyves many times over the years but never stayed anywhere so well equipped and comfortable. We loved our time at the villa being very lazy in the 30 + degree C /heat. The villa had everything we could need & we were made to feel very welcome by Gail & the family. Loved the pool & the garden with the mountain views. Just a short stroll into town – perfect! Definitely hope to return, Helen, Alistair, Robbie & Ben Campbell

Sitting here on your terrace and enjoying the spectacular view of the mountains, while the sun is rising over the sea! I can’t believe the week has gone by already – but what a week! Fun in the pool, delicious food and great sightseeing. This was only possible because of your extraordinary service and wonderful hospitality!
