When you go to Melidoni X Village, everything is special... you are a special guest for the wonderful hosts Marieke and Georgios, who take great care of you; You have your special villa with a private garden and swimming pool, looking at a beautiful landscape view; The homemade food and cocktails (great Mojitos :-) are very good... it is a piece of paradise for people who like relaxing in a safe heaven. Concerning activities, Marieke gives you all necessary information to do the activities you like, beach, sea side restaurants, cultural site seeing, kids activities, typical Crete villages tour, hiking, ... If I go back to Crete, I definitely will stay there again as a priority. Special thanks to the Melidoni X team!

Third time to Crete, but this time we decided to stay away from the touristy beach resorts and instead had the perfect time in our mountain "stone house", complete with private pool, amazing mountain views, a first class very affordable restaurant on site, all the privacy we needed, and still, only a ten minute drive from some of the nicest beaches in Crete. Hosts Mareike and Giorgios were there for us when we needed anything, including offering some of the best Greek meals we'd ever had. Highly recommended! We usually don't travel to the same place twice, but this time we may make an exception!
Efaristo,

We stayed for two weeks and it was fabulous! ....and the time was toooo short....!
We will come back, because Mareike and Georgios are the best hosts we ever met.
They give you very good advices whatever you like to do!
The villas are very beautiful, the pool and garden are really lovely and you have there the best sight on the highest peaks of mountains. It was like in Paradise!!! And you all have to try the homemade food n the restaurant! We thank you for your warm welcome. See you soon!!!!

This is one of the best kept secrets on Crete. We stayed for a week in July and loved every minute. The villas are spacious and well appointed. The pool and garden are lovely and bigger than we expected from the photos. The overall setting is stunning with a beautiful outlook over the highest peak in Crete. It's well located for interesting day trips to the coast and inland. The food in the restaurant is fresh, tasty and good value. If you feel like dining out then there are lots of options within a short drive. We loved Panormos and also enjoyed an evening drink in one of the tavernas in the square down the road in Melidoni. A wonderful place that we can't recommend highly enough!

Melidoni X Villages ist auf einem Berghang entstanden, auf dem früher Schafe geweidet haben. Es liegt dem Berg IDA genau gegenüber, und wenn wir morgens aus unserer komfortablen Villa auf die Terrasse traten, um in unseren Pool zu tauchen, sahen wir diesen wunderschönen Berg im Morgenlicht, über einem weiten Tal. Danach gab es das beste Frühstück in ganz Griechenland, liebevoll zubereitet von Mareike, die eine sehr gute Köchin ist. Ausgezeichneter Service, herzlicher Empfang, hervorragende Küche - ein Paradies!
