Potentially a great villa, but!!!
The villa has a lot going for it, but it feels unloved, little things let it down, only 2 usable sun loungers, a further 2 (unusable) dumped on the wall, the top patio furnishings stained and worn, 2 windows upstairs with odd curtains, a few screws to hold them in place would stop the pole moving and the end falling off, the garden has lots of debris laying around, lots of weeds out the front. It did come as a very big surprise that no cleaning took place for our 3 week stay, no spare sheets or towels, so you had to wash them early, lay them out somewhere and dry them that day, very strange set up. On the positive note the pool area is great, the chairs and furniture on the pool level are comfortable, the kitchen is very well equipped, watching the sunset with a cold beer is the perfect end to the day.

Stunning views and great location
We had a lovely week at the villa. We spent a lot of the time in the pool and relaxing. As others have said, the views of the surrounding coast are stunning. There are supermarkets and tavernas a 15minute walk away. Thanks for a great week!

A nice spot for a family
We spent a month at this villa with our two daughters whom were doing online schooling and we felt the layout worked well and everyone had their own space. We did lots of cooking and the sunroom off the living room was a nice space for meals. The outdoor space is great and we really enjoyed using the grill and outdoor kitchen. The views and sunsets are amazing and we often walked to Plaka to the restaurants and grocery store. It’s also a beautiful place for jogging. We were there a bit early in the season and the pool was pretty cold but we all went for dips anyways and enjoyed the Sun loungers. It’s a nice home base to check out the area!

What a view !
Villa Ilios provided an excellent location for our 2 week family holiday in Crete. We must have stayed in around 20+ villas in various countries and this may be the best views we have ever had. The upstairs balcony with comfortable seating, glass paneling and views over Souda Bay. The sunset, wow. The Villa has most things you need to provide you with a comfortable stay. Wifi, had no complaints from the kids, so that's a bonus. Ground level there are two double bed rooms both with access to the pool, and a 3rd room with 2 singles (all bedrooms with air conditioning). No ensuite, but large shared bathroom with bath and shower. Living and Kitchen area upstairs with a toilet ( with shower) also on that floor. Several balconies. Pool Area, there are plenty of seating and outside dining areas. Outside kitchen with bbq complete with a great cooling fridge for water and beers ( saving trips upstairs). The pool itself was well maintained and clean. There are 4 x sun beds but no poolside umbrellas, so beds got little use due to no shade from that August sun. Jason did find a small beach umbrella in the house to use for one bed. Another small disappointment was no mid week cleaning was provided, even though we have really payed 2 x 1 week costs. That's a first in all villas we have stayed. A washing machine is provided though to wash towels etc. The area is quiet and pretty, although you are within a 15 min walk of several restaurants and small supermarkets, I would recommend a car during the stay at this Villa. It's a dirt track to the 4 private villas of which Ilios is one. We travelled to many beaches in the area from 5 mins to 45 mins, This area really impressed us. Chania ancient city is a must see and the markets too, again 45 mins drive and lots of free parking. I would recommend this Villa for any family holiday in this beautiful area of crete. Already missing those sun sets.

Beautiful Cretan holidays
We had the most wonderful family vacation in this lovely villa! Everything went flawlessly, we met Sandra and Jason in Plaka, they showed us the way to the place. We loved the friendliness of the locals, the excellent dinners (with free Raki!)at Elpis and other restaurants, the beaches and the amazing sunsets. We will be back!

Great location. Photos don't do the view justice particularly at sunset
Lovely villa in a great location. Can walk to local shops and restaurants in 25 minutes but anything else requires a car. Good pool and BBQ area. The views across the bay and towards the white mountains are a lot better than the photos suggest. Well equipped kitchen for home catering ( coffee machine was the only small glitch) good showers and comfortable beds.

traumhafte Aussicht
Wir waren bereits zum 2. Mal zu Besuch in dem Ferienhaus und haben erneut eine wunderschöne Zeit verbracht. Man hat einen wunderschönen Ausblick auf die Bucht von Almyrida und im Hintergrund die Berge. Allerdings waren wir etwas enttäuscht, da der Pool nicht wie vereinbart regelmäßig gereinigt wurde und sich im Laufe der zwei Wochen immer wieder trüb gefärbt hat, da die Pumpe wohl nicht intakt war. Somit fühlten wir uns teilweise nicht mehr wohl, in den Pool zu gehen und konnten diesen für einige Tage nicht benutzen. Abgesehen davon hatten wir eine tolle Zeit. Im Haus hat jeder genug Platz und zu Fuß erreicht man die traumhafte kleine Bucht von Koutalas.

Maison Ilios
Nous avons séjourné une semaine à l’Ouest à Kokkino Chorio puis une semaine à l’Est pour pouvoir rayonner et visiter plus facilement. A la maison Ilios, la vue de la terrasse est magnifique, la piscine très agréable et la maison bien équipée et climatisée. Voiture indispensable : Commerces et Tavernes à 2 mn à Plaka ou 5 mn à Almyrida. La crique de Koutalas à 2 mn avec ses eaux limpides et le village de Vamos à 15 mn (ambiance très sympathique). Très bonne situation pour rayonner et visiter l’ouest de la Crète (Chania, Falassarna, Georgioupoli, le lac de Kournas Elafonissi au sud-ouest et les villages de montagne, …) Très beau séjour. La Crète est une très belle île et l’accueil particulièrement agréable.
