Description from the owner
Elounda Solfez Villa is located in elounda, in Eastern Crete, Greece offering breathtaking views over the Mirabello Bay and the Aegean Sea.
At day break the light beams will gently caress you out of Morpheus (God of Sleep) Land and lead you for a refreshing swim in the privacy of your pool, before enjoying your breakfast with natural Cretan products and be filled with energy for the rest of your day.
When the Sun is going down, it paints red the distant Sitia Mountains (Eastern end of Crete), offering you a sensational visual experience, while you are enjoying an aperitif or your dinner.

Additional Location Information
Destination Elounda, Crete, Greece
There is practically nothing you will ask and not find in Elounda and the surrounding areas. Either you wish to relax at your villa's veranda or terrace, just gazing at the azure sea of Mirabello Bay, to clubbing and dancing at the nearby city of Aghios Nikolaos (10 km).
Elounda is a slow paced, picturesque, fishing village, blending ancient memories with contemporary living and mouth watering Cretan gastronomy with crystal clear secluded beaches and warm hearted local people.
Its small harbour with its traditionally painted boats is surrounded by shops, taverns and cafes where you can sit and gaze a slow paced world, going by. You will experience that carnal time does not apply here!
Closest sandy beach to your villa is in Elounda, only 2km away, a pleasant five minutes drive with your car. It has the "Blue Flag" award from the European Union for its clear waters and very safe for children to swim in. Elounda has been a refuelling station during the Second World War for the allied forces.

Fira, GreeceIncredible villa, incredible pool, beautiful view!
Left on 05/07/2013 for a stay in May 2013
I stayed at the Elounda Solfez villa for 8 days with my wife, my 4yr old daughter and my parents. The villa is exactly as advertised. We were welcomed by Nikolas and he bought milk, juice and fresh fruit for the following breakfast. The villa is really clean. The rooms are perfect : 1 with 2 single beds, 2 with a double bed. The balcony on the second floor is ideal for breakfast or any meal near the Kitchen and the terrasse is enormous. The pool is amazing and the garden well maintain. We really liked the view... Elounda is at 5 minutes driving. You need a car for this stay. We would definitely go back.

London, United KingdomBeautiful house with great facilities
Left on 10/10/2012 for a stay in August 2012
We had a great stay here this summer. The welcome team and the help from the guys throughout our stay was excellent. The villa is kept really clean and is really well equipped for self-catering holidays. The views are spectacular and the villas are well designed so you don't overlook other villas and vice-versa. The local town Elounda is a 5 minute drive and a nice town to go out in during the evening.
The villas are at the top of a really steep hill and are a little bit off the beaten track so you you definitely need a car (a good one!) to get to and from the villa. -

Left on 09/09/2012 for a stay in July 2012
We simply fell in love with the place; the villa, the service, the welcoming and then more generally Elounda, its scenaries, its lovely people and of course the food... Magical. And what made it more enjoyable are the hospitality, assistance, care and availability of the management staff; Nikolas, Ippo... Thank you!! Always available; yet, invisible and respectful of your privacy.. We are "serial vacationeers" and can tell you that we have been around; so in comparison, if you're looking for peace, tranquility and at the same time the possibility to escapade... Solfez it!

Wellesley, MAWow!!
Left on 09/06/2012 for a stay in August 2012
We stayed here for four nights recently and couldn't have been happier. Ippo welcomed us on the first evening with keys and full description of the villa: 3 bedrooms with a family room, kitchen, and our own pool! After a week of close quarters (i.e., small European hotel rooms), our family of four was grateful for the chance to spread out, make a few of our own meals, and relax. The villa was clean, very modern, and well laid-out. It had 3 levels, each with a balcony and/or patio, so you are enjoying the incredible views wherever you are. We didn't want to leave to go sightseeing each day.
My one caveat: the villas have incredible views because they are built on a steep hill overlooking Elounda. Climbing the driveway in your car is not for the faint-of-heart! The basic drill is as follows... 1) Put your car in first gear; 2) Floor it!;) and, 3) If there are cars coming down the driveway the same time you're going up, you have the right of way. We never did have to test #3, thankfully, but our little VW Polo did cough and even stall (twice) on this steep (1/2-mile?) stretch of road. A little harrowing, but we'd still stay there again because *every* other aspect of the villa was outstanding. -

Left on 01/01/2012 for a stay in September 2011
The villas are situated on an east facing hillside in a quiet location with an unspoilt view over magnificent Mirabello bay which sets the scene for complete relaxation. Well equipped and comfortable with plenty of outdoor space there is little left to wish for in a holiday rental. The owner who lives on site went way beyond the call of duty to assist us in every way to ensure that our stay was as pleasant as possible and is to be highly commended. Situated between Elounda and agios Nikolaos one is best catered for in terms of amenities, restaurants, beaches and nightlife, not to mention the ancient and cultural treasures of eastern Crete. The perfect place to relax, explore or just chill out. We certainly plan to return, highly recommended. One tip, first gear and heavy on the accelerator to negotiate the steep climb up to the villas.

Montreal, CanadaGreat villa, great location, great service
Left on 08/13/2011 for a stay in August 2011
We had a fantastic vacation at Villa Solfez which is quite comfortable for six people (including a two year old and a seven year old). The breathtaking view is a fabulous reward for the steep climb to get to the property.
Nikos, the manager of the property, really makes a difference with his kindness, availability and resourcefulness (he suggested off-the-beaten path restaurants and sites to visit). These discoveries certainly added to the quality of our vacation.
It is a worry-free rental: the house is cleaned every 2 to 3 days, the pool is cleaned every day.
If you rent, you wont regret it. -

Athens, GreeceSuperb!
Left on 07/29/2011 for a stay in July 2011
To wake up in the morning and see the sunrise through the large panoramic window at the foot of the bed was pure heaven!
A very peaceful location (you don't hear a sound) with one of the best views in Crete! Elounda Town is just a few minutes away by car - and you do need a car. Many people will not want to leave the villa but stay by the pool all day and then dine on the terrace overlooking the breathtaking Bay below.
The villa was extremely clean with modern, quality fittings throughout. Luxury! The pool man arrived every afternoon. We are British but live in athens and have recommended Elounda Solfez Villas to all our friends. We will certainly be returning.
