Description

Sleeps 4/6, 2 bedroom villa. New build with private solar heated swimming pool. Amazing views to sea and mountains.
Built within its own secluded olive grove of just over an acre in size, ensuring absolute privacy yet Hestia Villa is just over a Km from the tourist town of Kalyves and one of the best beaches in Western Crete at Almyrida is but a few minutes away. Hestia Villa stands alone with its own 11m x 4m heated pool, no other property shares the site or looks onto it in any way.
Impressive glass doors open onto extensive balconies overlooking the m agnificent infinity pool, olive groves and sea. At the side of the villa there is a shaded seating area, perfect for reading a book and relaxation.
Hestia Villa is well placed for exploring the old Venetian ports of Chania and Rethymnon, the Minion Palace at Knossos, the Limnoupolis waterpark, the unique beach at Elafonisi or walking the Samaria Gorge.

Registered with the Greek National Tourist Board.
20Mb satellite Internet with Wi-Fi, air-conditioning, washing machine, dishwasher, BBQ, 2x LED TVs, Blu-Ray, DVD, CD player and iron. In addition to Greek terrestrial TV, the Satellite TV receives about 800 channels from Astra 1 and Hotbird in many languages. Also included are a laser printer to print out those boarding passes and a phone with a UK landline number (available for guest use) so you can avoid expensive mobile fees yet stay in touch with family and friends.
The swimming pool is usable throughout the rented season, though the actual temperature will depend on how much sun is available to heat the water. You can expect the heating to provide a pool perhaps 5c-6c hotter than others in the area and up to about 30c, certainly it will be one of the warmest on Crete. In May 2015 pool temps reached around 27c-28c, which is comfortable for swimming and other local pools were reported to be 22c and quite cold.
Hestia Villa is a new build, the gardens were planted in February 2015 and are maturing nicely, the recently pruned olive trees are starting to return. The pictures shown were taken in February 2015 and will be updated periodically.

Beautiful villa

By Linda Ryan on 30-Sep-2024

The villa has everything you could possibly need. A long private driveway leads to the house and pool and is not overlooked, so very private. Gorgeous infinity pool and far reaching views from all the well designed outside spaces of which there are several. Excellent air conditioning throughout and when we experienced one small nuisance with a bleeping smoke alarm the maintenance team were amazingly responsive and quickly resolved the problem. Communication with the owner was brilliant in the run up to our stay and we loved it so much there we have re-booked. There is some road noise which others have commented on, so if you're looking for complete silence then this property may not be for you. However, we thought it was a small irritant that was far outweighed by what this beautiful property has to offer. There are several small towns close by with many options to eat/ drink and small supermarkets. Lidl being around a 20 min drive away. Many of the close by tavernas are virtually on the beach. I do feel you really need a car as walking back from a night out would be uphill, (estimate around a half hour or so walk) and with no pavement and little illumination. Plenty of taxis though as an alternative. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending Hestia villa.

Amazing villa and location

By Bernadette on 12-Jul-2024

Have just spent the most heavenly week at Hestia Villa in Crete. Photos do not do this beautiful villa and its gorgeous views justice. We absolutely loved waking up in the morning to the sea views whilst having a dip in the pool. I travelled along with my two teenagers who also had the best week. The villa is fairly remote and in a beautiful setting and still close enough to walk down to Kalyves which we did multiple times. It’s quite uphill on the way back but the local taxi company in Kalyves were amazing and we used them regularly to collect us and drop us back to the villa. I was worried how we would manage without hiring a car but it was no problem at all and we used the local taxi company in Kalyves all week who was were amazing. We even got taxis to Chania and to Lake Kournas and they were very reasonably priced. There are also buses that you could use should you wish to. The booking process was also seamless and Phil was extremely helpful and without a doubt we would come back again. Thank you.

Fantastic!!

By John & Tina on 02-Jun-2024

We have been holidaying at Villa Hestia for a number of years. Fantastic peaceful location, Villa is superb, fabulous pool with solar heating. Ample comfortable furniture outside with gorgeous views. Inside is just the same with very comfortable bed to master bedroom. All the facilities you require plus easily accessible to Almyrida and Kalyves. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Loved Crete and loved Hestia Villa

By Becca and Tim on 16-May-2024

We had a brilliant time. The weather was very good, Crete was beautiful and Hestia Villa exceeded expectations. Probably the best Villa we have stayed in since we stopped caravanning in 2010! It had everything we needed, and the range of outside spaces for sitting chilling and enjoying the amazing views is excellent. We made good use of the pool everyday, as well as visiting the lovely beach at Almyrida. The local town Kalyves is a short drive away and has a very good supermarket and some lovely tavernas with good tasty food at very reasonable prices. There was lots to see and do, but mainly enjoying a relaxing time reading and swimming at Hestia Villa.

villa set in olive grove with beautiful views over the sea and mountains

By catherine m on 22-Sep-2020

This beautiful villa is in a peaceful spot surrounded by an olive grove allowing total privacy. The villa is well equipped and the pool is wonderful. The outside space is very well thought out and allows some shade when needed.We had a very relaxing 2 week stay and would book again. 22/9/2020 at 07:40

The property is exactly as advertised. The outside space is fantastic, as are the views. Very secluded and peaceful yet close to local amenities. Would thoroughly recommend
