    The cleanliness of the entire property was impeccable, with even antibacterial spray and hand cleanser available. The private and serene atmosphere created a calming and relaxing experience. The beautiful pool was refreshing, and the absence of TVs in every room was a huge plus as it encouraged quality time with loved ones. The comfortable beds and cool rooms ensured a perfect stay. The incredibly friendly owner provided attentive service without being intrusive. The property itself was as stunning in person as it was in the pictures, offering a rustic yet modern ambiance. The location was ideal, with a mini-mart nearby and a short walk to the town and beach. a fantastic place to stay that exceeded our expectations.

    The private pool was the highlight of our stay. It was like having our own personal oasis, perfect for a relaxing dip after a day of exploring. The fully equipped kitchen was a game-changer. We were able to whip up delicious meals and enjoy them al fresco on the terrace, making us feel like gourmet chefs. The location of the villa was fantastic. While the main road of Platanias was bustling with tourists, we found solace up the quiet hill where the accommodation was. It felt like our own little paradise away from the hustle and bustle.

    Minor issue - The washing machine wasn't working.

    We absolutely loved the cleanliness of the property, with antibacterial spray and hand cleanser available. The pool was beautiful and refreshing, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. We also appreciated that there was only one TV in the whole property, allowing our children to spend quality time together without being glued to screens. The location was also great, away from the touristy main road and situated on a quiet but steep hill.

    The noise from the road and other apartments in the area was a bit bothersome. the washing machine wasn't working during our stay, which was a bit inconvenient.

    The villa at Cretan Soul was super cozy and made me feel right at home. I loved the separate bedrooms, they gave me plenty of privacy. The living room was perfect for hanging out and the fully equipped kitchen was a convenient bonus.

    Personally, I wasn't a fan of the tumble dryer in the villa. But hey, that's just me!

    We stayed at Cretan Soul for a week and it exceeded all our expectations. This modern masterpiece has a beautifully designed interior with attention to every detail. The property is immaculate, and the outdoor space with a small pool and sun lounges is perfect for relaxation. The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming, leaving us fresh fruit and local produce, and checking in regularly to ensure our comfortable stay. The spacious bedrooms and bathroom, efficient air conditioning, and convenient amenities like a washing machine and dishwasher made our stay even more enjoyable.

    I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The cleanliness of the whole property was impeccable, with antibacterial spray and hand cleanser readily available. The hotel facilities, especially the beautiful and refreshing pool, added to the private, calming, and relaxing atmosphere. Another aspect I loved was that there was only one TV in the whole property, encouraging my children to play and enjoy time together without relying on screens. The comfortable beds and cool rooms made for a perfect stay.

    There was nothing I didn't like.

    We had an amazing stay at Cretan Soul Villa. the accommodation was beautifully appointed and had everything we needed. the warm welcome from Silvia and Giorgos made us feel right at home. the location was perfect, with plenty of nice restaurants nearby and a peaceful atmosphere. We loved the pool for cooling off and the fact that the property was a great base for exploring the west of Crete, away from the busy areas. the modern and comfortable space, along with the daily cleaning by the housekeeper, made our stay even more enjoyable. We can't wait to come back to this hidden gem. Cons: Couldn't fault anything! 👌.
