Fantastic!
We really loved our stay at Mareike‘s and Georgios‘ village - they were superb hosts, the villa was great (exactly as shown in the beautiful pictures), the view and especially also the dinner were spectacular. There is only one place for us to stay, when we go back to Crete!!

Fantastic an absolute hidden gem.
Stayed here in early October for our honeymoon and really couldn't rate it any higher. Perfect is the word that comes to mind. Beautiful setting, very romantic with secluded pool and fantastic food.

The most perfect holiday villa
The two of us stayed for a week as a surprise holiday for my boyfriend's 40th birthday. When searching for a villa (across a few of the Greek islands) this one stood out and looking at the tripadvisor photos, other visitors photos all looked as picture-perfect as the professional ones on the website. It was instantly a winner!
We could not fault the villa, it had everything we needed for a relaxed home from home stay (definitely more sunshine too!).
It was clean, airy and spacious, the kitchen was very well equipped and the bed comfortable. It was something else drawing back the curtains in the bedroom to that view in the morning too. The pool is just amazing. The photos explain themselves.
Check in was great, we let Marieke and Georgios know an approximate time of arrival and they greeted us and showed us around the villa. They are absolutely lovely, so friendly and Marieke especially has a fantastic knowledge of things to do and places to visit on the island. She suggested quiet yet beautiful beaches away from the main tourist areas we could visit. Georgios makes a fantastic cocktail ( we checked a few, just to make sure it wasn't a one-off!) and he greeted us and looked after us when we visited the terrace for a drink or some food.
The grounds are beautiful, flourishing with colourful flowers and unbelievably well tended to. It was so relaxing to sit on the restaurant terrace outside the main building, surrounded by colourful plants, looking at the mountains and share a jug of wine after a day of exploring.
We got a bit carried away with our supermarket shopping as we would have liked to have eaten more in the restaurant. All the food they cook is fresh, homemade and delicious. Both being vegetarian we were still spoiled for choice and didn't manage to try everything. We both highly recommend the 'Tiganites', greek pancakes...thank us later
Our last day before leaving was my boyfriend's actual birthday, we had a delicious meal and then were treated to a special plate for dessert and a shot of raki to wash it all down with. It was the perfect end to the most special holiday and we wouldn't change a thing!

No words can describe the serenity and beauty
Truly a special place - starting from the design of the villa and its surroundings, warm reception, great food and the feeling that you are visiting a friends house, a friend that is really happy to see you. We were travelling with two kids (9 & 10 years old) and booked this place since we wanted to be a bit off the popular beaches. The moment we drove in, we were meet with friendliness and genuine smiles. After the first dinner at the property, we decided to not even bother with other restaurants in the area - the food was great, genuine and fresh, atmosphere perfect and the quietness unreal. Same goes for breakfast and the morning espresso - cannot ask for more. The owners are really great hosts and made us feel welcome with genuine friendliness as well as helping us with great tips about what we can do on this beautiful island.
The only "noise" you can hear at night is an occasional bark of a dog - from a village about 10km away (just to illustrate how deeply quite this place is).
We are coming back!

Voor herhaling vatbaar
Prima onderhouden. Zeer net. Vriendelijke en hulpvaardige eigenaars. Maar toch volledige privacy, ook met het eigen zwembad en afzonderlijke tuin. Zeer goede wifi. Airco geruisloos. Rolluiken. Horren. Dubbel glas. Zeer rustig. Je kan slapen met open ramen. Indien gewenst zorgen de eigenaars voor goedkope taxi voor afhaling luchthaven. Ook huurwage, volledi verzekerd en nieuw, aan gunstiger prijzen.

Ein Ort um die Seele baumeln zu lassen
Wir hatten das Glück und die Ehre 16 Nächte die Gastfreundschaft von Mareike und Ihrem Partner genießen zu dürfen. Die Anlage ist ohne Übertreibung ein Ort um die Seele baumeln zu lassen. Die Ruhe und die beruhigende Aussicht in das Idamassiv lässt jeden Tag einfach endspannt beginnen. Jeden Morgen möchte man sich diese Ruhe und diese Beschaulichkeit auch im Alltag wünschen. Die gemütlichen, sauberen und fast schon zur Heimat gewordenen Steinvillen haben alles was man braucht. Besonderen Dank wollen wir an dieser Stelle auch den allen diejenigen zukommen lassen die sich um die Sauberkeit und Ordnung in der Anlage bemühten, niemals Aufdringlich, zuvorkommend und dazu immer ein Lächeln übrig. Wir durften auch schon den Service von 5-Sterne-Häusern genießen. Wir müssen zugeben, uns war nicht Bewusst, dass noch solch eine Steigerung gibt sich um den Kunden und Menschen zu bemühen und dabei einem das Gefühl zu vermitteln - herzlichst willkommen zu sein, nicht nur ein "Gast" der mal eben bezahlt für seine Dienstleistung - hier wurde und wird jedem ein kleiner Einblick in einem Paradies gewährt. Dafür und vieles mehr bedanken wir uns und träumen noch immer von diesem Magischen Ort - Jutta & Stephan aus München

Lovely Hotel, lovely Crete
Our stay in Melidoni X Village was absolutely fantastic. Georgios and Mareike treated us so well and we could always contact them if we had any questions. The houses are really great with a lovely private pool and a good view over the mountains. Inside there was everything we needed, from a fully equipped kitchen to a big living room with a TV (even with german tv channels) to a nice bedroom and a very modern and clean bathroom. It's also possible to order different kinds of breakfast in the morning and to have dinner with lots of food on a big patio. We can really recommend this to everybody and plan to come back one day. Thanks Mareike & Georgios!!

away from it all
This was our first visit to Crete and we new that the island was very big with alot of busy resorts. We wanted to stay somewhere that was away from the crowds, traditional and family run. This was definitley the place to be. The bungalows are beautiful and built with the traditional stone and the views are amazing. Mareike and George who are the owners and work extremley hard to keep the village in top condition. Everything is spotless, our bungalow was cleaned twice a week, towels changed twice a week and bins changed everyday. They both made us feel very welcome and it was lovely to have that personal touch. Thankyou so much for our fantastic BBQ and all the advice you gave to us regarding the meat........it was delicious. The bungalows are sooo lovely that we did not see much of Crete because we could not drag ourselves from the pool.
We would definitely go back again, maybe next time we might try to see the island.
