Very clean and spacious property. Comfortably would sleep 4 adults in 2 sizeable bedrooms. Further sleeping downstairs available in 2 futon beds (maybe ok for children/teenagers) 2 min walk from centre of Kefalas where there are a few tavernas and bars. Lovely pool and terrace.

Great Accommodation with stunning views
Very clean spacious villa. All the equipment you need for a self catering Holliday. Located a short walk from the village of Kefalas which is a typical Greek village. There are two mini markets and two bars and a restaurant. Ideally placed for exploring this region of Chania and Rethymno.

Wonderful stay in Kefalas villa, Crete
We had a fantastic stay at Pon's villa in Keralas. What an amazing setting in a lovely traditional Greek village, and the perfect location for getting to nearby beaches on Souda Bay and Chania, Rethymno and Lake Kournas. The villa is clean, comfortable and comes with everything you could need including good Wifi. Outside there are wonderful sea views and a lovely private pool - I found it really refreshing in the heat, although my wife and daughter felt the water was a little cold. Would really recommend the Meterizi taverna just a short walk away. Pon was the perfect host and offered us this villa at no extra cost as a replacement for the one we'd originally booked in Almyrida due to building work taking place nearby. His communication and help in making this happen was first class - he also recommended a very good car hire place at Chania Airport. What a lovely few days we had in Kefalas - I cannot recommend it highly enough and we will certainly be back. Pete, Jo and Hannah

Beautiful scenery.
Me and my partner were fortunate enough to spend a week at this beautiful villa at the start of May 2022. Located in a quite village at the top a mountain, this villa is a perfect getaway for anybody looking for a more quite and relaxed vacation as appose to the "usual" busy and bustling tourist locations. A car rental is a must as you are quite secluded when at "home", though local shops are only a 2 or 3 minute drive away. The nearest beach we found was perhaps a 15 minute drive down the meandering mountain roads. I would definitely recommend this place and we will most likely return in the near future. Ps, the pictures on this site don't so the villa justice. It's actually a lot bigger than it looks in these pics and also more updated. Pps, Pon was a great host and very helpful throughout our stay. He was always just a phone call away whenever we had any questions. Jay and Heidi, Birmingham, England, UK

Wonderful and Authentic Cretan Vacation
My family (four adults and two children) stayed at the villa for eight days at the beginning of July and it did not disappoint. Located high in the village of Kefalas, the location of the villa ensured we had an authentic Cretan experience while providing us easy access to several beaches and tourist locations in western Crete. We enjoyed to beautiful view of the Mediterranean from the villa, the short walks to village, its two small grocery stores, and three tavernas. From the start of the trip we felt welcome and left feeling a sense of loss as we departed from our new found friends. Pon and his team were excellent! From the start, the communication was excellent and was maintained throughout our trip until our arrival back home. We were able to contact Pon at any time, and any need we had was addressed immediately. The villa had everything to guarantee a great vacation. With two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a sofa sleeper our family of six had plenty of room and was always comfortable with A/C located in every room. The washer and hanging rack allowed us to pack light while ensuring we had clean clothes every day. We spent most mornings cooking breakfast in the well-stocked kitchen as the kids (and some adults) enjoyed a morning swim prior to the day’s activities. Upon arrival, the pool was clean and a pool cleaner stopped by once during our stay. There is ample seating in and outside of the house and Pon provided us some basic necessities to get our trip started. You must have a car for this location, but we would recommend a car for any stay in Crete in order to take advantage of the multitude of beaches and historical sites throughout the island. Pon provided us a local car rental company that was able to rent us a vehicle that could accommodate our large family at a far more affordable price than what can be found online. There is free adequate parking at the villa. Our family was able to visit seven beaches, the archaeological sites of Aptera and Knossos, as well as the Venetian port of Chania. In addition to Kefalas, we had wonderful, affordable Cretan cuisine in Kalyves, Aptera, Chania, Heraklion, and Georgeopoulis. For cash we would stop in Vamos, which has an bank/ATM as well as a bakery, several small cafes, shops, and grocery stores. The villa has a television, DVD player, movies, playing cards, and dominoes, but we spent most of time lounging at the pool, visiting with the locals, or visiting the beaches and sites.

Séjour à Kefalas
Propriété confortable, disposant d'une très belle vue, mais espace de la terrasse réduit et photo ne faisant pas apparaître une promiscuité avec la maison voisine, peu gênante au final. Situation agréable, mais un peu éloignée de La Canée. Par contre, Giorgopolis, la ville balnéaire proche est très agréable : belles plages, peu encombrées. Excellentes tavernes. La maison est un peu vétuste, mais dispose du confort moderne. Nous re'comandons cette location.

Fantastischer Ausblick, nettes Dörfchen, exzellenter Gastgeber
Wir haben über Ostern ein großzügiges Haus mit Blick aufs Meer, Pool und nicht einzelstehend gesucht. All das haben wir hier gefunden und mit Pon Logan sogar noch den absolut besten Gastgeber, den man sich wünschen kann! Das Haus steht auf der etwas abseits von der Ortstmitte auf einem Hügel. Nach rechts kann Mann übers Meer bis Rethymnon und nach links bis fast Chania sehen. Die Lage ist wirklich super, man braucht aber zwingend ein Auto. Im Haus haben wir 5 uns ausbreiten können, es war alles da, was man braucht. Es gibt zwar nicht viel Ablagemöglichkeiten in den Schränken, aber wir haben alles verstaut. Sogar ein Kinderbett und ein Beistellbett war da, bei unserer Ankunft alles bereits sauber bezogen. Was wirklich toll ist sind die Betten, gute Matratzen und alle mit wasserdichten Bezug, was mit Kindern nicht unrelevant ist. Es gibt ein Bad mit Dusche und Wanne, und ein WC mit Waschmaschine. Die Küche hatte auch viel Platz und wir haben oft dort gekocht. Sie hätte etwas sauberer sein können bei unserer Ankunft, aber das hat uns nicht weiter gestört. Einzig unter der Spüle müffelt es etwas. Die Spülmaschine hat gute Arbeit geleistet. Den 32“ TV haben wir nur selten genutzt, es gibt auf jeden Fall Sat-TV. Internet gibt es gegen Extragebühr auch, allerdings ist jedes 5G Smartphone (Empfang 2-3 Balken) schneller. Ich habe Remote gearbeitet und meistens den Hotspot genutzt. Danke an Pon für die stete Erreichbarkeit und immer freundliche Hilfe!

Our stay in Kefalas was simply wonderful. The accommodation matched the description perfectly and was cozy and comfortable. Even though Pon wasn't on-site, he remained a helpful and attentive host, always just a message away.

Wir Lieben das Haus
Für uns war das Haus einfach nur PERFEKT. Es liegt auf einem Hügel mit super Aussicht auf die Küste von Kreta. Alles notwendige ist im Haus verfügbar und der Pool ist ein Traum . Kefalas ist ein kleines scharmantes Dorf mit 3 Tavernen (die wir ausprobiert haben). Der kleine Bio Market hat das nötigste, für den grösseren Einkauf muss man etwas weiter fahren. Pon der Hausbesitzer war telefonisch jederzeit erreichbar und hat uns auch sehr geholfen. Wir können dieses Haus für Familien oder für eine Reisegruppe empfehlen. Wir würden es auf Jedenfall wieder buchen.

Schöne Villa mit privatem Pool
Wir waren 2 Wochen in der Villa in dem kleinen Örtchen Kefalas und haben uns nicht einen Moment gelangweilt. Die Villa ist gut ausgestattet, mit Klimaanlage, 2 Bädern, gute Küchenausstattung, eigener Pool. Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter lief sehr gut und sehr freundlich. Um an die Strände zu fahren, benötigt man ein Auto. Wir waren von unserem Urlaub begeistert und können die Villa nur weiterempfehlen.

Schön wars ...
Wir haben für 2 Wochen eine wunderschöne Zeit in Pons Villa verbracht. Der Weg dorthin ist etwas schwierig, besonders wenn man im Dunkeln ankommt, aber Pon hat uns per Telefon sicher ans Ziel geführt und dort sogar auf uns gewartet. In der Villa standen bereits Willkommensgeschenke, wie Obst, Wein, Wasser und Milch, worüber wir uns sehr gefreut haben. Frühling auf Kreta kann manchmal auch recht kühl sein, aber die Villa hat zum Glück genügend Heiz-/Klimageräte (ausser im Bad) dafür hat uns Pon extra noch eine mobile Heizung zur Verfügung gestellt. Die Villa ist mit allem eingerichtet was man braucht. Das Doppelbett war für unsere Verhältnisse mit 140cm etwas klein, aber das mag für andere völlig okay sein und es gibt ja Ausweichmöglichkeiten. Mehr als 4 Personen sollten die Villa unserer Meinung nach aber nicht bewohnen, sonst wird es doch sehr eng. Der Blick von hier oben ist wunderschön, durch die Lage aber oft auch sehr windig bis stürmisch. Ein Auto braucht man hier auf jeden Fall. Die Wege bis hoch sind ziemlich serpentinenreich und teilweise recht eng, besonders in den Ortschaften. 2 kleine Supermärkte sowie zwei kleine Gastwirtschaften sind fußläufig im Ort erreichbar. Pon ist ein bezaubernder und ausgeprochen freundlicher Gastgeber, immer erreichbar, hat für alle Fragen oder Probleme jederzeit ein offenes Ohr und ist sehr auf das Wohl seiner Gäste bedacht. Wir können Pon als Gastgeber uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.
