Summary: We had the most wonderful time at Dimokritos Villa. Nothing was too much trouble for either the villa owner or management company. It’s set in a lovely garden with great views and has everything you need to have a totally relaxing holiday.

Summary: Lovely villa with plenty of room for everyone. Lovely pool very much appreciated in the heat for a cool down, with great bbq area that was well used for sunset meals. Location was quiet, I would recommend a car to explore the island and experience some of the beautiful beaches. We would definitely come back again.

Summary: We had such a lovely time we have booked to go back next year. If you like a more remote peaceful holiday this is perfect. All the villas are beautiful, well kept and the owners are on hand all the time. Such lovely people, they can’t do enough for you. Beautiful views of olive farm land. We were a mix of two families with a teenager and a infant. Villa was perfect. You need to hire a car to get around but loads to explore locally. Can’t wait to go back again next year

Summary: Outstanding service & hospitality received from both Think Villas and the hosts of Dimokritos Villas. From the moment of booking Valia and her team at Think Villas provide a first class service with quick responses keeping you updated at all times regarding your booking with full directions and helpful recommendations. This really helped to make us relaxed before we had even left home! Throughout our stay any questions, queries or problems we had were dealt with efficiently in a very professional and friendly manner. Popi, Manolis and their lovely family could not have been more hospitable. The villa was spotless with regular cleaning and change of linen, the pool is regularly cleaned and Manolis's lovely mother every few days delivered different small packages of fresh eggs, lemons, oranges, herbs, cheese pastries and the best stuffed vine leaves we tasted on the Island. They always respected our own privacy but were available when needed, nothing was too much trouble even when we locked ourselves out of the villa! Thank you all so much for a fabulous holiday x

Summary: First the booking agency (Valia Kokkinou) is very professional: friendly contact, quick answers and all necessary information including a description to find the villa (inkl. GPS link). We enjoyed the villa very much. Everything is clean and well appointed. We liked the barbeque and sitting on the balcony at evening dawn (very special colours), The terrasse is nice, too. The bed clothes and shower towels were changed every four days, excellent. Everything is worth it, we can recommend the villa for 100 %. The owners Popi and Manolis were so friendly, thank you very much for everything. Do not miss the Taverna Roumeli, the view is the best we ever had in Greece.

Summary: We had a wonderful 12 night stay at Dimokritos Villa 1. On arrival, the owner was there to meet us with a welcome snack and home made wine and the villa was spotlessly clean. Throughout our stay the family were on hand attending to the villa and grounds and bringing guests delicious home made Cretan specialties such as stuffed vine leaves and home grown watermelon and home made feta. The nearest main town , Panormo, was lovely with a beach and plenty of shops and tavernas to visit but a car is necessary to get there from the villas. I would highly recommend these villas to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday in the Cretan countryside.
