Top Hotels Near Venetian Fountain in Agios Vasileios from AU$70

"As a family, we have spent our vacations in many vacation homes, and our stay at Villa Manouski was by far one of the best. Rarely have we had such a courteous, helpful, and friendly host (and probably the best lemon cake in Crete). The house and pool were exactly as pictured online, and everything was very well maintained and clean. We felt so comfortable that we would come back anytime!"

"Quiet and quirky. Everything one needed. Excellent for hiking trips. One needs a car. Very good breakfast."

"Sea view room above a restaurant owned by a beautiful family who showed the best hospitality ever. We arrived late and were still offered dinner, there was everything we needed in the room inclusive of coffee machine and coffee, waters and utensils, air conditioning a huge bonus, freshly clean sheets, a drying rack for putting our wet bathing suits on our private balcony, a table and two chairs to move out there as well. Sun blocking curtains, a mosquito net to the sliding door so we could wake up with the sunrise, in the post peaceful, quiet area at the foot of the canyon. A two minute walk to the beachfront where you can rent umbrellas and lounge, and also located is the base of the small hiking trail to get to the palm forest. But it was all made perfect by the kindness of the most wonderful staff. Many thanks and we will be coming back every year! (freddo espresso a must!) and wifi included--Thank you Dionyssos Rooms!"

"Wonderful stay. The host was great. Quick to reply to messages and very knowledgeable about the area. The house was great. Everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The pool isn’t massive but was plenty big enough to cool down and the children loved playing in it. The area is stunning. Amazing views and a number of great beaches within a short drive. We were treated to a hot mousaka on our arrival and the kitchen was brilliantly stocked with wine and treats and home made cheese. On one of the days we got a tour of the farm and a the kids got to ride a horse. We felt very looked after. Brilliant place if your looking for a quite stay in the awe inspiring Crete mountains. "

"Great out of the way location. The villa is clean and comfortable. Communication with the owner was good. Loved it."

"This place is a piece of heaven and the pictures don't do justice. The hosts are incredibly nice and always checked and made sure we are happy and have everything. The house inside is beautiful ( traditional cretan) and clean with lots of space, confortable beds, very cool compared with other places we've stayed. Yes it has AC but we didn't have to use it after a hot day at the beach. Brilliant location for visiting lots of places, amazing view and privacy, good size swimming pool and a incredible wildlife around the house and the lake. We just spent evenings in the garden listening to the birds and other animals around. The house has its own cat( Skia) - which means Shadow which is so lovely and polite. Nikos it's the best host and such an incredible guy and for that reason we highly recommend this place. Thank you guys for having us, will miss you lots. See you again in 11 monthsLove Andrea and George "
