Holiday Villa-House for rent in Almirida Crete Chania Prefecture Greece, vacation rental | short term let.

Property for rent in Almirida Chania Prefecture Crete Greece.
Villa Rigani is situated in Kambia, between the villages of Plaka and Kokkino Chorio. It has glorious sea and mountain views across Souda Bay and The White Mountains.

Built in 2006 in the local stone with classic wooden features, this fully air-conditioned villa has been extremely well planned to provide luxury accommodation either for a couple seeking a holiday alone, for two couples to enjoy sharing a villa whilst having their own private spaces or for small families where children can play safely whilst mum and dad relax.

The villa is in a peaceful and quiet location accessed via a short tarmac lane and track before you come to the villa's driveway which is shared with one other villa. It is very handily positioned being only a couple of minutes drive from the beach at Almirida and local tavernas and mini markets.

The unique design provides a private, first floor master suite consisting of a spacious double bedroom with large en-suite bathroom with bath, shower, bidet and vanity sink unit. A large private sun terrace furnished with loungers and umbrellas leads off the bedroom. The sea and mountain views from this private terrace are simply stunning.

On the ground floor there is another large bedroom with twin beds that can be pushed together if required, French doors open up to a terrace. Adjacent is the large family bathroom, again with bath and shower. The open plan lounge/dining room and kitchen leads off through an archway. The kitchen is comprehensively equipped and there is a dining table with 6 chairs. In the lounge there is a comfortable sofa in addition to a sofa bed which means that the villa can sleep up to 6; we would suggest no more than 4 adults + 2 children (on the sofa bed). For your entertainment, the owners have provided an lcd TV with satellite reception (not Sky), a DVD player, cd player/radio and wi-fi broadband capability via satellite internet connection (bring your own equipment). A collection of books, cd's and dvd's are provided at the villa.

Outside you can savour those glorious views from so many vantage points in the garden or from the terraces surrounding the private infinity pool which is the perfect size for cooling off rather than serious swimming. At night the pool is lit and inviting for those who may like to try a midnight dip. The terraces are well furnished for soaking up the sun and dining al fresco with lots of loungers and umbrellas, a large outdoor dining table and directors chairs. There is a separate tiled BBQ area away from the pool.

The air-conditioning units also provide heating making the villa a good choice for early or late season holidays when the evenings can be cooler and some heating may be required.

Quote from a client - August 2011 Highly recommend the Dream speedboat trip from Almyrida - best day of the holiday vote by all (3 teenagers and 2 older!).

Quote from a client - June 2011 - "This is our first visit to Crete and we enjoyed every minute of it, it is such a beautiful island and Plaka is wonderful, very peaceful and relaxing with a good selection of tavernas in the square and a little supermarket for provisions - the man who owns it is very helpful!! Almyrida is lovely too with a bigger selection of tavernas, a great bakery and a lovely beach.

Quote from a client - September 2010 - "We loved Chania and recommend it. The drive south to Chora Sfakion is spectacular. Another great drive is to Georgioupolis via Kokkino Chorio with village after village unchanged by time. Sunday lunch in one of the tavernas in Gavalochori surrounded by Greek families enjoying each other's company was great fun."
