Summary: This traditional house has been lovingly restored and refurbished to a very high standard by Julie and is equipped with everything you could possibly need for an enjoyable stay. The house is very comfortable and we loved the quirkyness of its upside down set up with the living accommodation at the top where the veranda gives beautiful views of the surrounding areas and the mountains and is a natural suntrap. It is an excellent base to visit the area but please note that a car is essential and that the house is not suitable for anyone with a disability as it is built on a very steep hillside. Thank you Julie for all your help and consideration particularly for meeting us very late on our first evening to guide us to the property it was very much appreciated.

Summary: The house was exactly as described, in a great area with superb views. Plenty of space inside, with a well set out kitchen, and living room, with table for eating meals. The terrace and views are the place to unwind, and either have breakfast or soak up the sun, also an excellent location to sit at the end of the day and watch the sun go down The village is quiet, and relaxing, but within easy walking distance of other villages with shops, tavernas & restaurants. And you can easily go further afield, to the coast using the regular bus service. Julie was always on hand if we needed any information or help, and nothing was too much trouble for Julie. An excellent location and holiday.

Summary: We absolutely loved our 5 nights in Olive View. The location was perfect for exploring this part of Crete and the house was amazing - it had everything we needed. We spent hours on the terrace listening to what was going on around and star gazing. Julie was a great host, giving us plenty of local information and was always available. We’ll definitely be coming back and this time for longer. Thank you Julie, for making the start of our Crete adventure so amazing.

Summary: Olive view surpassed all expectations, the accomodation was excellent and the views from the patio either day or night were amazing, a great base from which to explore north east Crete and then return to enjoy some wonderful meals in the excellent local tavernas. All in all an experience we will never forget.

Summary: We met Julie on arrival and she was so helpful. Olive View is fantastic with breathtaking views of the Olive Trees and the mountains. It is very peaceful and private. We spent two weeks here and it is ideal for visiting the local beaches, touring the region or relaxing on the Sun Terrace. We loved our stay and would not hesitate to return. Thanks again Julie for all your help and information.

Summary: Olive View lives up to its name . It was just as we thought it would be in the region of Neapoli surrounded by olive groves with stunning views- we hired a car and could park at the top of the property near the renovated windmill which is a great landmark for locating the property - it’s easy to get to Hersonissos and Malia and in the opposite direction to Agios Nikolaos and Elounda. Julie is a great host and very informative. It was lovely to sit out on the terrace at night listening to the different sounds around and the stars. Would highly recommend

Summary: A credit to the owner (Julie) who has renovated this delightful house to the very highest standard.....well equipped, you will want for nothing in the way of fixtures and fittings. Julie is very pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable, having lived in Crete for over 25 years. There’s little she doesn’t know about the island. I can recommend this property without hesitation. It’s in a very small village tucked away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Lord Lucan could be living next door and you’d never know!

Summary: The property is in a fantastic picturesque location. It's out of the way but still only 15 minutes drive to the beaches and touristy places. We enjoyed eating out locally most nights and all restaurants offered good food and good prices particularly the local taverna in the village of nikithianos. The owner of the property is a wealth of information having lived on the island for many years. The property itself is a fantastic place to stop and has lots of charm and character. It was our first visit to crete and was very memorable as we were over for our daughters wedding. We have loved every minute of our stay and will hopefully make a return visit.
