Anemomilos Villas are Great for Big Groups

Our stay couldn’t have been more perfect. The host was extremely responsive. Everyday the hosts father delivered fresh eggs, breads, fruits and pastries from a local bakery. We had four families and the compound suited us all very well. My only issue is we only two openers for the gated driveway which made splitting up difficult. They helped coordinate a private DJ for a 50th birthday party and ma... more

Big beautiful home just like in the pictures. Very responsive and helpful host. Left us fresh eggs and Greek pastry every morning. Big house to host a big family reunion . Would come here around if I’m in Crete again .

Highly recommended A wonderful place for a large family's vacation. The house is huge, the pools are great, the location is incredibly peaceful, and the view is breathtaking. The hosts are exceptionally caring, friendly, and always ready to help. I would gladly return.

We had an absolutely exceptional stay! The house is magnificent, even more beautiful than in the photos, perfectly maintained, and very well equipped to accommodate a large group. There were 18 of us, and everyone found their own comfortable space without ever feeling cramped. The owners were incredibly kind and gave us a warm welcome. Every morning, we received the thoughtful touch of fresh crois... more

Thank you so much for the wonderful stay at this accommodation. This fantastic Airbnb was an absolute stroke of luck. The hosts were incredibly kind and provided us with croissants, eggs, and baguettes in the morning, not to mention all the complimentary fruit.

Amazing! Positive: Very kind hosts. Amazing location. Negative: Nothing, was just perfect

We came as a family of 6 adults, 7 teenagers, and 4 children, and we were delighted to spend this week at the villa. We appreciated having separate apartments for each family, each with its own appliances. So convenient for those big loads of laundry! The living room with its large table is perfect for gathering by the pool, and there's a ping-pong table and foosball to keep the children entertain... more

We had a great week and enjoyed the nice house

Lovely stay with lots of activities in the house! Very nice house with everything you could imagine for a holiday with friends: From the heated pool to the small tennis court on the roof. Our landlord was always there for us and super friendly!

Beautiful villa with a breathtaking view. Very kind and always available host.

The view is amazing ....Andreas and his family are lovely person and help us all we need ....if you are in Crete you must take this villa

The place was huge...consisting of four separate homes, two pools and a communal play area. It is peaceful, and the host's are a wonderful family. Highly recommended.

Friendly and responsive host, clean villa, with a superb view but a bit far from the beaches (we were driving 10-15 minutes to the nearby beaches).

The owners are wonderful, welcoming people. They went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. We were a group of 4 families so the 4 separate apartments was the perfect arrangement. Everything was clean and we had everything we needed. Then there is the view. I could have sat on the terrace all day long just staring at it. All Andrea's local suggestions were excellent, especially the local Ta... more

Our extended family of 14 stayed and honestly the photos don’t do it justice. It was even nicer in real life and perfect for a big gathering - with space to be on your own and huge communal areas for gatherings. Beautiful locations and views and above all gracious lovely hosts. Farm eggs, local olive oil and produce and always willing to help - we all felt truly spoilt. We could have happily spent... more

We recently celebrated our wedding at Villas Anemomilos and couldn't have asked for a more perfect experience. From the moment we arrived, Andreas made us feel completely at home. He was incredibly kind, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Every morning, we were welcomed with fresh eggs, vegetables, bread, and delicious croissants — such a thoughtful and ... more

Amazing place perfect for larger groups that might still want some privacy wich you get from the four separate "apartments" inside the villa. The house owner was very helpful and gave us recommendations about places to visit, where to eat and where to hire a car. The host also delivered fresh eggs and bakery every morning wich was above expectation and very appreciated. The only downside was that ... more

If you have a large party or several families traveling to Greece, this is where you must go!! The host and family were incredible. They made daily visits to check on us and make sure we were comfortable. They brought fresh, hot bakery items and eggs to us each day. He was always responsive and helpful. The island was gorgeous. Stunning views, quiet towns with the kindest, most accommodating peopl... more

We got married at the villa. We had amazing days with family and friends in the four apartments, which had separate kitchen but we always cooked in the biggest ”outdoor” kitchen. They have old pictures on Airbnb. Now the big ”outdoor” kitchen is renovated and in house. There are all utensils, equipments and big fridge and freezers. The play room was amazing for breakfast. The house is big enough f... more

The villa is fantastic! We had a fantastic time with 12 friends. It consists of several apartments with many bedrooms and a lovely common room for cooking and breakfast, as well as a separate room for playing games and celebrating. The family was very helpful and brought croissants and eggs in the morning. Another highlight was the tennis court with a sea view, where we played foot-tennis in the s... more

We used this space for our destination wedding and were truly pinching ourselves the entire time. It was a dream come true. From the pools, to the outdoor kitchen, to the view… everything was even more perfect than we imagined. The owner even showed up in the mornings to deliver us farm fresh eggs, tomatoes, olive oil, and chocolate croissants. Seriously would stay here a million times and never g... more

Absolutely stunning holiday - heaps of space to accommodate 4 families! Wonderful family hosting and super responsive to all our queries and local recommendations! Absolutely wonderful space can’t wait to visit again! Thank you

Very nice venue for birthdays, weddings etc. Thank you to the host. The villa is incredible

A Dream Vacation Villa! We stayed at this beautiful villa as a group of 19 adults and 2 babies, which is the maximum capacity with everyone comfortably accommodated. The villa is made up of 4 separate apartments, each thoughtfully laid out. Three of the apartments have space for 5 people—1 couple in a master bedroom and 3 single beds in an extra room. The fourth apartment has room for 4 single bed... more

Amazing place and great and friendly host! The place is even better in person - you will not be disappointed! The hosts were great and every morning provided us with fresh eggs and fruit! Would highly recommend!

Such an incredible place. We did a work retreat and everyone love it

Excellent hospitality!! Big place with several complexes, amazing view. Excellent service

We came here for my sisters 50th, there was 16 of us and it was perfect. The hosts could not do enough for us. Thanks you for a fantastic few days. (If you do book the villa there arnt any shops in walking distance, so would recommend you bring food with you)

We absolutely loved this house! Amazing! Breathtaking views! Manos’ hospitality was beyond reproach. They did everything by to make sure we had a wonderful experience. The multiple villa areas allowed all of our guests to feel comfortable and spread out across the entire property. We would love to return!

Wir waren mit 16 Personen in der Unterkunft von Manos. Bei der Ankunft wurden wir herzlich von Manos' Vater in Empfang genommen, der uns die Unterkunft mit allen Gegebenheiten erklärt / gezeigt hat. Es ist eine tolle Unterkunft, in der man so viele Dinge gemeinsam erleben kann (Pool, Tennis, gemeinsames Essen, Tischkicker etc.), sich aber auch genauso gut zurückziehen und ein wenig Privatsphäre ge... more

We were staying in villa 06/16-06/21. 17 adults and 1 child. Andreas, the owner of the villa, was really helpful. We ordered catering the day before our arrival and owner let them in and they even put everything in to the fridge. Villa is located 15 minutes from HER airport, so the road didn’t take long. Rooms were clean and spacious, everything was in perfect condition. Shared area was cleaned ev... more

Séjour parfait pour notre mariage. Nous avons passé un superbe séjour au sein de cette villa que nous avons loué pour faire notre cérémonie de mariage. L’hôte de la villa a été disponible et très réactif. Je recommande fortement.

Stayed here in May '24 for a family and friends celebration and couldn't have had a better time! Manos made the process of booking and arrival unbelievably easy, he was fantastic from start to finish with plenty of info and recommendations too. The host Andreas was exceptionally friendly, with a tour at the start that made us feel right at home and more recommendations for the area - his dad broug... more

Parfait, hôtes réactifs et supers sympa, tous les jours, fruits légumes et pain.. séjour parfait et conforme à nos attentes ! Merci encore :)

Fantastisk sted, med den skønneste udsigt ud over vandet og bjergene. Huset er godt indrette med mindre enheder og samtidig et der rig mulighed for at være fælles i det store opholdsrum og i grill køkkenet. Pool området er godt indrettet. Anbefalingsværdig til store grupper. Hver dag kom der besøg af husets ejer, der var god service og smagsprøver fra haven.

What an amazing villa! We came for two weeks as a group of 15 from 2nd-16th August 2023 and had the most amazing time. The Villa itself is actually a lot bigger than can be determined from the photos, particularly with the stone villa at the back of the courtyard which is basically a villa in its own right. The rooms were clean and well kept with all apartments fully self contained but with eas... more

We had an incredible stay at Villas Anenomilos. we stayed for one week however could have stayed a lot longer. The facilities at the villa are perfect, you have everything you need. The sunset each night was amazing. We rented a vehicle but the local taxi company was also very reliable whenever we needed it, despite there being 18 of us. There are beautiful beaches nearby with bars and restaurants... more

The villa is amazing for a large groups of families. Because it is split into four private villas you get the space you need for family time but also have plenty of space to gather together. The bbq / kitchen area is awesome, the photos don’t really do it justice but we loved using the BBQ and Pizza oven for our dinners. The only snag with the villa is the location. You have to drive everywhere re... more

Wij hebbenw genoten van ons verblijf in deze accomodatie. Het ontvangst was hartelijk en vriendelijk. Alle delen van deze grote villa waren netjes en schoon. Er waren dagelijks verse eigen eieren en croissantjes. De eigenaren waren altijd bereikbaar en zeer behulpzaam. We hebben vooral genoten van de heerlijk frisse zwembaden en het feit dat alle gezinnetjes een eigen appartement hadden. Met elkaa... more

we go again.... nice people nice place.

Magnifique villa avec une vu incroyable pour venir se depayser entre amis ou comme pour nous s offrir un mariage de rêve !!!tout les matins l hôte venait nous offrir des œufs et su pain frais toujours disponible pour toutes questions ou recommandations merci encore on ne pouvait pas espérer mieu

Myself and my family (19 in total) stayed here in July / August. The villa and grounds are lovely. The hosts were very nice and made check in / out very easy. As the villa is comprised of 4 completely separate apartments, it was difficult to cook for a large group, we had to cook in the kitchens in each apartment and then bring food & drink down etc, it's a pity there's not a proper kitchen in the... more

We have just spent a fabulous week at Villas Anenomilos. 3 families together, with 6 adults and 8 kids across 11 - 17 age range. We werent quite sure whet to expect but all our hopes were surpassed. Easy location to access beaches, shops, cultural sites; very friendly and flexible host; facilities on site were excellent; great views - the perfect venue for a large/mixed group holiday. We will be b... more

Great place. Multiple units worked great and hangout rooms were wonderful. Fantastic hosts. Easy to get to. Plenty of parking. Make sure you tell them ahead if time if you want the pools heated. We didn't and water was cold even in the middle of summer. But once you got. Acclimated, couple minutes, it was fine. 4 nice cats kept us company. Hosts brought us wonderful edible gifts almost daily.

As a group of young people we enjoyed the nice and easy going way how everything was handled and organized. The villa is great, quiet, great seaview, wonderful pools. The rooms are nice and comfortabley. This has made our "Maturareise" a meomrable event. Everybody was friendly - we had a great time. Thank you Class of 2022 Innsbruck, Austria

We absolutely loved our stay at the villa! It was perfect for what we needed - with beautiful views of the sea, two swimming pools and separate apartments so that everyone had plenty of space. I could not recommend this place enough. Hopefully we will be able to come back soon x

We had a great time with a group of 20! Highly recommend staying there, great for big groups and a good time near Achlada the beautiful small village! The house managers are super kind and can organize anything from groceries to large amounts of beer.

An amazing Villa, with extremely friendly owners. My stay here was incredible- the view, the pools, the apartments and houses were all extremely high quality, very comfortable and clean. The owner was incredibly friendly and very helpful, and cooked an amazing dinner for us one evening. Top location could not recommend more!

Amazing Villa set high in the mountain with fantastic views! The kids had a great time in the pools!! And Manos was a great Host....could not do enough to help with our holiday. We will definitely be back..

Great view

Quaint Airbnb (actually by quaint I mean massive) but also cozy! Tons of mini-apartments joined together and a fun common room with a ping pong/football table to keep us entertained! The breakfast by the charming hosts gets an A+!

Costas and Andreas are wonderful hosts. We got frash bread and eggs every morning! The location is close to heraklion and 8 minutes driving from the sea and restaurants.

We stayed here for 10 days. It was perfect, there were 17 of us , 10 adults and 7 children ages 12-4. Our hosts Kostas and his family were so generous, apart from keeping the villa in tip top shape, they supplied us with eggs, fruit, bread, cakes. The villa is ideal , it has four separate apartments, and a communal games, TV area. Kostas and his family cooked a Cretan meal for us one evening ... more

Un logement tout simplement paradisiaque. Adapté aux jeunes mais aussi aux grandes familles. Une vue sublime des levers et couchers de soleil. Et surtout, une hospitalité très touchante de l’hôte dont la disponibilité a été irréprochable. Nous avons passé une semaine idyllique !

My extended family had a fantastic trip to the Anemolylos Villa in Agia Pelagia. The villas are beautiful, with stunning cliff top ocean views. Each villa was well appointed and the bedrooms, kitchens, and living space were well equipped for a home away from home experience. The pools and grounds were gorgeous. We paid the extra to have the pools heated which was totally worth it, despite it ... more

Nous venons de passer un séjour dans la villa. Nous étions un groupe familial de 17 personnes e t chacun y a trouve sa place. La maison est très belle, la vue extraordinaire. Nos propriétaires très sympathiques, toujours prêts a nous aider. Grace a eux nous avons eu un repas de fête typiquement crétois et ce fut une très belle expérience. Rien a dire sinon UNE SUGGESTION (pas une critique) ... more

We were a group of 12 people, adults and children We stayed at the villa 22-16/7 We had a wonderful time there! The property is very clean and well kept, and the staff were very pleasant and helpful having 4 separate apartments was absolutely grate - every family had their own privacy and we all had the common play room/ kitchen space to get together. I highly recommend this villa for a great vaca... more

We were a party of 6 adults and 6 children who stayed a week. We particularly enjoyed the space behind the main villa where there was a nice fireplace that we used every night. I can highly recommend a trip to the local butcher and then cooking over the fireplace. The villa's pool area was another popular place to hangout during the days. The pools were a little cool which was expected though sinc... more

We had a great stay at Villa Anemolylos! We have been a group of 10 people and had a great time there. Great location with nice sea view and 2 nice pools. The rooms are very convenient. The house owners are very kind and provided us with great local vegetables, eggs & etc for free. We also booked a grill with lamb which the owner and his wife prepared for us - best lamb we ever had and one tim... more

Wir (Reisegruppe mit 14 Personen) haben gerade unseren einwöchigen Aufenthalt in der Villa beendet und beschlossen, die Reise im nächsten Jahr zu wiederholen. Kosta ist ein sehr umsichtiger Gastgeber, der uns bestens versorgt hat. Die Villa ist sehr großzügig, es ist alle vorhanden, was das anspruchsvolle Urlauberherz begehrt. Hervorragende Poolananlage, wobei sich die Investition in die Beheizung... more

Wat hebben we genoten in het prachtige huis hoog in de bergen. Schitterend uitzicht over het dorp Agia Palagia. Elk jaar gaan we met 14 vrienden een week in een huis in een warm land. Dit huis hoort echt bij de top 2 van huizen die we hebben bezocht. De familie Costes, eigenaar van het huis droeg ons op handen en deed er alles aan om ons verblijf zo optimaal mogelijk te maken. We mochten iets e... more

"וילה מדהימה. שרות מעולה. נוף מדהים. בריכות שחיה נקיות וצלולות. בקיצור מקום מדהים.''

Nous avons passé 5 jours dans la très belle villa de Manos, tout s'est parfaitement bien passé. La villa est grande, très calme avec une belle vue sur mer. L'accueil s'est fait avec Kostas. Nous le remercions encore pour le superbe repas proposé (mouton grillé au barbecue) et nous remercions également sa fille pour le babysitting réalisé !

we enjoyed the apartments very much/ a lot of room / the kitchen was very well quipped and every thing was clean and satisfied. we will recommend this place with such a beautiful view and excellent weather / we hardly used the air condition/ One remark which is important is that the pool water was quite chilly and when the children wanted to play in the pool they could not unfortunately.

I would firstly like to say Manos from Crete Villa’s 4u was very helpful and accommodating from start to finish The information he provided was of great use too With 3 families sharing the same holiday the requirements are and can be endless, with 6 adults and 8 children, we were looking for a place which would allow us to spend quality time together as a group, but also have the ability t... more

La maison est bien entretenue, idéale pour un groupe comme le notre composé de 4 familles. L'emplacement est parfait avec du vent, permettant de profiter de l'extérieur toute la journée. La piscine est agréable, les pataugeoires pour les enfants sont un plus appréciable.
