Crete, Villa Petra, 3 bedroom Villa with pool

6 kms from Georgioupolis and a few hundred metres from the tiny hamlet of Maza, this charming three bedroom villa, stands alone on a tiny plateau amongst rolling hillsides covered by cypress and pine trees with the ethereal backdrop of Crete’s fabulous White Mountains adding a touch of magic. Although newly built, the authentic stone walls bound together with a faint pink tinted mortar give an impression of mellow old age and the traditional Cretan architecture is carried through to the interior where dark wood beamed ceilings rise to the eaves. Comfortably furnished in an attractive antique style, the house nevertheless enjoys all mod cons with 21st century kitchen and bathroom fittings, as well as satellite TV and a small Hi Fi system with CD player.

Although Georgioupolis with its lovely sandy beaches is now a thriving seaside resort it still retains a pleasing rural ambience and leisurely pace of life. Numerous tavernas and cafes surround the bustling village square whilst in little side streets you will find a number of small shops selling jewellery and local pottery. Down by the river the fishermen with their boats and nets add a tangy whiff of the sea to the village atmosphere and here it is possible to hire a boat and paddle upstream towards Lake Kournas spotting turtles and fish as they drift by. In Vrisses, huge Plane trees line the road where you will find mini-markets, a bank and a bakery (do try the cheese pies). Of a morning time this is a bustling little town, but by mid-day the pace slows and the tavernas spread their tables out towards the banks of the river Voutakis, where you can relax in the shade and enjoy a bowl of creamy local yoghurt and honey, for which this area is famous.

At The Front Of The Villa

A rustic covered veranda with polished table and cushioned bench seating overlooks the pool and from here a door opens directly into the cosy living area with two large Cretan sofas, a handsome antique dresser and a traditional stone fireplace housing a state of the art glass fronted fire. Through a striking stone archway, the spacious turquoise fitted kitchen comes complete with all the necessities of modern living including a dishwasher, washing machine, full electric cooker, fridge freezer and microwave. In one corner are a table and chairs for impromptu meals, whilst French windows on the other side lead to a small shaded terrace with patio furniture and a barbeque.

Off An Inner Hallway

are one double and one twin bedroom both with French windows to their own patio and garden areas on opposite sides of the house. The double bedroom has a smart en-suit shower room, whilst opposite the twin bedroom is a full bathroom, extravagantly equipped with a turbo massage bath. There is also a small single bedroom opposite the double. If you are squeezing in a sixth person, the twin bedroom has a further single bed romantically set in the eaves and reached by its own fairly steep small staircase, although we would not recommend its use by children under 6.

Flowered Gardens

Surround the villa and set into the lawn is a sparkling blue mosaic tiled pool measuring 8m x 4m, with a small children’s pool at one end. The village square in Maza is just a short stroll away and boasts a small cafenion and ancient Byzantine church. The cafenion serves drinks and simple meals as well as ice cream, but you may need a smattering of Greek to make yourself understood. For wonderful yogurt, day to day shopping and a few simple tavernas the village of Vrisses is just 2 km away, whilst for a day on the beach and a really wide choice of tavernas, Georgioupolis is the place to head for.

Review Submitted: December 06, 2007, Date of stay: December, 2007

WE had a brilliant holiday and couldn't find fault with anything. Villa Petra is absolutely lovely with stunning views(and sunsets)and extremely peaceful. The villa itself is of a very high standard and it was great to meet the owner who greeted us on arrival. The freelance reps were great too. We are just sorry our two weeks came to and end!

Harvey and Mary Scorey - Villa Petra - Sep 2006
Can't say enough. Perfect accommodation, perfect setting. Lovely, lovely. Villa was spotless and immaculate. Owner met us on arrival and showed us around. Pleasure beyond belief. Stayed in 2006 and have booked again for 2007.

Denzil & Beverley Williams - Villa Petra - Jul 2006
We had an excellent holiday at Villa Petra. It really is as good as it looks in the photos on the website. The villa is beautiful inside and out, whilst the pool and gardens are really terrific. Maza is inland and so you get slightly cooler weather - which is a blessing.
