We were a family group aged between 15 and 76\. We have been on many holidays together but everyone agreed that this was the best yet! The villas are so well equipped, the pool and garden areas are delightful and would also be suitable for younger children. It was perfect. We were all together, but had our own space too. Maria and her husband went above and beyond to help my mother with a medical issue and we were so grateful. Exceptional service - thank you so much. We all hope to visit again in the future 😊 ##### Emma H.

Every year we stay in a house in a different country. Daphnis Villas was probably the best one to date. The overall plan with the 4 villas, the common area, huge pool, and BBQ/dining/playground area offer the rare option to have both privacy and be together in family. The quality of the infrastructure is very good. Last but no least, Maria is a gracious, friendly and efficient host who leaves in front of the property and is always available to help or fix any issues. Not to forget the delicious olive oil gifts from Maria that we are bringing back home. Kids loved it, and so did adults. ##### Arash A.

Jul 31, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Family stay in all 4 houses We stayed at Daphnis Villas for one week, 15 persons with an age span from 5 to 73 years. This place was perfect for us, being a big group with people with different needs and day rythms. Each family had their own house, but most of the time was spent in the common area for meals, sunbathing and swimming. The pool is quite big, and there is also a ping-pong table which we used a lot. The barbeque area was perfect for common meals, but we also had many of our dinners at restaurants by the beach (5 min by bike, 15-20 min on foot). The owners provided several bicycles to our disposal, which was very practical. The beach is just a couple of minutes walking distance from the houses, and there is also a restaurant with tables in the shadow and sunbeds for the customers in this part of the beach. The landlady Maria was very helpful, she drove us around and showed us the area the first day, and stopped by to see if we needed anything during our stay. The houses and the area were clean and wel held. We rented a car during our stay, which was practical for grocery shopping, but we also could have managed well without. We would definitely recommend Daphnis Villas! ##### Thomas Valsø S. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard K.

We were 14 people between the ages of 8 - 80\. Every single one of us loved the villa. The pool is beautiful and so much larger than it looks in the pictures. Maria is an incredible host. She is warm and helpful and can give you any advice you need. The villas themselves are so well-appointed. You will not need anything at all. Everything you can think of is provided. The location is also perfect. It is a 4 minute walk to a small beach with great swimming. It is an easy drive to Balos and Falassarna if you want to see more famous beaches. There are so many great restaurants and bakeries within an easy walk of the villa. We would absolutely love to come back again. Maria has really created the perfect family vacation spot.

Maria var en fantastisk vert som var oppmerksom og hjelpsom på alle mulige måter. Bassengområdet fungerte meget godt med tilstrekkelig med plass og solsenger. 3 6 åringer lærte å svømme i bassenget og vil nok huske denne ferien lenge. Leilighetene var meget funksjonelle med vaskemaski n, oppvaskmaskin og alt man trengte for matlaging. Det var gode muligheter for både fellesskap og privatliv på dette feristedet. AC på alle rom var også helt fantastisk. Vi brukte grillområdet mange kvelder og hadde noen fantastiske solnedganger og kveldsstunder sammen. Vi kan anbefale stedet på det varmeste ##### Tore S.

It was perfect for us, like having a private hotel. Chania is amazing, and the villas are a great base for exploring the island. Spotlessly clean thanks to Maria the daily cleaner who is lovely. Our only issue was that on the day of check out both the cleaner and the owner were camping out waiting for us to leave from 8am (we were due to be out at 10). Felt a bit like we were being told to get out ASAP, and difficult to enjoy our last breakfast on the terrace when the whole place is already being hosed down. ##### Edmond W.

Jul 3, 2018 #### Fina hus med närhet tillvarandra en stor pool och härliga terasser med havsutsikt. Vi har bott 18 personer ( både vuxna och barn) i en vecka. Fantastiskt fin vistelse och bra välplanerade hus med terasser och pool som utnyttjades flitigt. Nära till havet, dock lite längre till flera restauranger men inom promenadavstånd. Välfungerande cyklar finns att använda dagligen gratis. En fin liten trädgård med grill och sittplatser och även lite gungor och rutschkanor för barnen. Servicen och kontakten med Maria fastighetsägaren har fungerat utmärkt. Snabba svar, positivt bemötande och bra hjälp. Maria har också gett oss tips på utflykter och fina närliggande stränder och hjälpt till med att ordna saker vi behövt hjälp med. Vi hade gärna stannat en vecka till och vi längtar redan tillbaka. Vi vill tacka Maria för en fin vistelse och ser fram till att återvända snart. Med vänliga hälsningar Anita med familj och vänner. ##### anita f.

I would have one remark: the WiFi was not very strong. But this doesn’t really matter when you are on vacation! All my family loved the villas, and we would absolutely come again.

Stayed 10 nights in Jun 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katie C., West Yorkshire Jun 2, 2018 #### Really lovely stay for families 18 of us visited in May 2018, 4 families including 10 children aged 1 to 12\. We had a fabulous time with wonderful service from Maria who was very helpful and kind. She organised a mini bus transfer for the airport and also a beach day trip to Falassarna (beautiful sandy beach about 40 mins away). The villas are great, comfy beds and well equipped kitchens. There is a great size pool for the kids and excellent BBQ facilities. We didn’t hire a car at all, very easy bus route to Chania or €25 in a taxi. Also in walking distance of some great local restaurants which are very reasonable. The shingle beach 200m away is very easy to get to and we were lucky to have beautiful sunshine all week ☀️ We all loved our stay and hope to return! ##### Katie C.

Jun 12, 2017 #### Fantastic villas, pool and location We have just returned from our 2 week family holiday at Daphnis Villas. Ours was a family of 19 people ranging from 11 months to 80 years old so needs and requirements were varied. After an extensive search for a large villa we came across Daphnis Villas, it seemed to fit the bill perfectly. We rented all 4 villas so had exclusive use of the complex and had a wonderful time. The villas are all well equipped, well maintained and clean. They had everything we needed plus a maid came round daily which was luxury. For us it was all about the large pool, relaxing, being together yet having our own space when you wanted it and this certainly gave us that. The layout of the complex means that you can have shade or sun anytime of the day. The large BBQ and play area together with the table tennis (we had a tournament) were excellent. The gym was used by some of us and was a big hit, it even has hot showers. Our hosts Maria and Nikos were lovely, we were greeted on arrival and they ensured we had everything we needed. One of the children had a medical problem that Nikos helped with above and beyond. On arrival Maria noticed my mother had some mobility issues and asked if she'd like a bed made up on the ground floor, Mum gratefully accepted this kind offer. Having read reviews prior to booking I was concerned that the pool may be a problem with the children 11months, 15months, 3yrs and 8 yrs but all was good as the surrounding area is large and non slip. The shallow area was ideal for the babies. Just great!! As for location it was ideal for us, set in a quiet area with a local mini mart and bus stop just 2 mins walk away. The beach is just a 5 min walk away. A vegetarian restaurant just 2 mins walk away serves great crepes and beetroot burgers. A 20 min stroll takes you to Maleme where you can find larger supermarkets and several bars and restaurants. The bus service is regular and efficient. Just a 10 min bus ride away is the quiet village of Kolymbari, it has a small harbour, a few shops and excellent restaurants, also it's worth going to see the beautiful Monastry of Gonia while your there. If you want somewhere busier then Platanias is just a short bus ride away, it's a large busy resort with plenty of tavernas, bars and shops. Everything is on the doorstep of these villas, the villas, pool and grounds are just wonderful. I can throughly recommend Daphnis Villas. None of us wanted to leave. Thank you so much Maria and Niko ##### Lesley O. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Athina Suites Platanias](https://www.expedia.ca/Platanias-Hotels-Athina-Suites-Platanias.h36119213.Hotel-Information) > > [Emilia Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Emilia-Apartments.h32115564.Hotel-Information) > > [Seaside A Lifestyle Resort All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Malevizi-Hotels-Seaside-A-Lifestyle-Resort-All-Inclusive.h2312612.Hotel-Information) > > [Aulus Chania Resort, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Chania-Hotels-Isla-Brown-Chania-Resort-Spa.h10438386.Hotel-Information) > > [Phāea Blue - Small Luxury Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.ca/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Phaea-Blue-Small-Luxury-Hotels-Of-The-World.h972986.Hotel-Information) > > [Melina's House](https://www.expedia.ca/Chania-Hotels-Melinas-House.h5370697.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Marina](https://www.expedia.ca/Rethymno-Hotels-Villa-Marina.h33462100.Hotel-Information) > > [Porto Platanias Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Platanias-Hotels-Porto-Platanias-Village.h10251301.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Venus](https://www.expedia.ca/Athens-Hotels-VILLA-VENUS.h44564734.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunrise Village Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Chania-Hotels-Sunrise-Village-Hotel.h3484918.Hotel-Information) > > [Galini Sea View](https://www.expedia.ca/Chania-Hotels-CHC-Galini-Sea-View.h1848566.Hotel-Information) > > [Pergamos Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Platanias-Hotels-Pergamos-Village.h15409220.Hotel-Information) > > [Stella Palace Aqua Park Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Stella-Palace-Resort-Spa.h9330057.Hotel-Information) > > [Isadora Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Apokoronas-Hotels-Isadora-Apartments.h13097231.Hotel-Information) > > [Akti Posidonos](https://www.expedia.ca/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Akti-Posidonos.h32828315.Hotel-Information) > > [Minos Imperial Beach Resort Milatos Crete](https://www.expedia.ca/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Minos-Imperial.h660214.Hotel-Information) > > [Areti Suites Chania](https://www.expedia.ca/Chania-Hotels-Areti-Suites.h15036048.Hotel-Information) > > [Grecotel LUXME White](https://www.expedia.ca/Rethymno-Hotels-Grecotel-LUXME-White-Palace-All-Inclusive.h2573709.Hotel-Information) > > [Castello Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Mylopotamos-Hotels-Castello-Apartments.h20187823.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonidas Rooms](https://www.expedia.ca/Platanias-Hotels-Leonidas-Rooms.h46322852.Hotel-Information) > > [Alsus Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Malevizi-Hotels-Alsus-Boutique-Hotel.h92024666.Hotel-Information) > > [Anemone Seaside Traditional Homes](https://www.expedia.ca/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Anemone-Seaside-Traditional-Homes.h16777776.Hotel-Information) > > [Cretan Dream Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Chania-Hotels-Cretan-Dream-Royal-Hotel.h2336360.Hotel-Information) > > [Kalypso Cretan Village Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Agios-Vasileios-Hotels-Kalypso-Cretan-Village-Resort-Spa.h1853964.Hotel-Information) > > [Unique Blue!
