Another fantastic stay at Villa Jazmin
Excellent stay again at Villa Jazmin. Everything was perfect from arrival to leaving. Nicole kept in touch regarding towels and recommendations. Just a fantastic villa in a great location, a few km outside Plakias. Trips to Rethymno in 35 mins which we did a few times. Great places to eat nearby. Pool was great in 35 deg heat and Pedro was great as usual. Thanks Nicole for another great holiday. 👍

Amazing views, relaxing stay!
This is a great villa. Clean, comfortable, modern and airy. We didn't even need to use the air-con as the breeze kept the villa cool. Such beautiful views from the huge terrace... we enjoyed star gazing at night. We didn't want to leave! It's a good sized villa and we enjoyed the pool too. The area is quiet and peaceful but you are only a few minutes walk away from an excellent taverna and only 10 mins drive from two lovely beaches. We enjoyed exploring the South of Crete, having stayed in the North a previous time. We drove to Matala, got a boat to Preveli beach, and visited Damnini and Plakias beaches. Plakias has lots of nice shops and restaurants. Got some lovely ceramic bowls from the town up from Mariou too. Great help and communication from Nicole. I would love to return! Thank you.

Perfection
Jazmin Villa provided our family with a perfect Greek experience. Firstly, I want to express our sincere thanks to Nicole, the property owner - who was extremely generous, quick to respond, and patient with the ever changing landscape with Covid. Our booking was made before this horrible pandemic struck, yet Nicole was excellent with all aspects of our booking. We feel so very lucky to have been able to experience this villa and the area, given the problems across the world. Jazmin Villa provided us with exceptional homely comfort, with world class views across the Libyan Sea. Split over three levels, the lounge, diner and breakfast area gave us views across the whole bay. Everything was accounted for and the coffee machine was a god send :) Two bedrooms on the second level were air conditioned and very comfortable to sleep in, especially with 36 Deg heat! Each room had doors which opened on to the second level balcony and garden. The gym and playroom was brilliant. Not that we used the gym much :) The lower level was a fantastic pool, with plenty of loungers to relax to the chime of Caceda’s. Plakias is a wonderful small village with plenty of restaurants and shops. Restaurants provided a view across the sea. Wonderful. Recommendations, provided by Nicole were perfect. Plenty of beaches around to visit. In summary, I cannot rate Jazmin Villa, Nicole, and Plakias high enough. It was one of our most enjoyable holidays ever, despite all the issues with Covid. Massive thanks to Nicole for letting our family experience her villa and the area. I’m sure we will be back!

Lovely villa, stunning views.
Beautiful views you never tire of looking at. Villa had everything you need for a holiday Taverna walking distance, food was great. Lots of other tavernas around but a car is definitely needed to get around. Some of the drives across the mountains are a little scary but so worth the views.

Great villa, great location, superb views.
A very comfortable and roomy villa with everything you need and superb views to the east south and west. The villa has everything you need for a very comfortable stay and the owners are very helpful and on hand if you need anything. The taverna close by is very friendly and the food is excellent and not over priced.

Toller Urlaub, herrliche Aussicht auf Meer und Berge
Sehr sauberes Haus. sehr großer Pool der top sauber war und täglich gereinigt wurde. Nach 1. Woche wurde das Haus komplett gereinigt, Bettwäsche und Handtücher gewechselt. Es gibt kleinere Ausstattungsmängel (wenig Besteck, knarrende Türen), die durch positive Dinge wie Super Wlan für drei Geräte gleichzeitig, Spül- und Waschmaschinentabs. Essig, Öl, Salz, Zucker, eine tolle Espressomschine sowie zur Begrüßung Eier, Milch, Espressopulver und div. Tees mehr als ausgeglichen wurden. Die englische Vermieterin Nicole war schon bei der Planung und während des Aufenthalts sehr nett und hilfreich (Anfahrt, Handynummer Arzt und anderes mehr) und jederzeit erreichbar. Wir haben den Urlub und auch das abendliche Poolbillardspielen sehr genossen.

Alles Prima
Wir haben uns in der Villa sehr wohl gefühlt. Die beiden Zimmer im Untergeschoss sind klimatisiert. Die Klimaanlage im Obergeschoss haben wir kaum benutzt, da sich das Leben im wesentlichen auf der großen Terrasse mit Meerblick abgespielt hat. Das Haus ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht: Großer Kühlschrank, Spülmaschine, eine Bluetooth Anlage, Billardtisch, Tischtennis, Räder und kleinere Fitnessgeräte. Das Haus hat eine zweckmäßige Einrichtung und war sauber und sehr aufgeräumt als wir eingezogen sind. Der Pool wurde täglich durch einen sehr freundlichen Hausmeister gereinigt. Der Kontakt zur Vermieterin war schnell und unkompliziert.

Vorzeitige Abreise
Wir haben eine Woche in der Villa Jazmin gebucht. Wir sind nach zwei Tagen wieder abgereist und haben eine neue Villa bezogen. Als wir ankamen, war der Pool sehr dreckig. Das wurde aber zügig behoben. Die Villa selbst nicht sehr liebevoll eingerichtet oder gepflegt. - Haare in den Betten - Schranktüren im Schlafzimmer kommen einem beim Öffnen entgegen - die Badezimmertür ließ sich nicht schließen - die Duschschriebetür sprang aus der Führung - die Verkleidung vom Rolladengurt fällt bei Benutzung ab - viele tote Spinnen an den Wänden - muffiger Geruch in der unteren Etage - die Klimaanlage im oberen Bereich reicht nicht aus um dem Raum zu kühlen - Haare an der Staubsaugerbürste - der Bügelbrettbezug war sehr fleckig - in kurzen Abständen ist es nicht möglich die Toilettenspülung zu betätigen, da das Wasser nicht nachläuft

Wunderschönes Haus mit tollem Blick
Wir hatten eine großartige Zeit in diesem wunderschönen Haus. Es ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man sich wünschen kann. Bei schlechterem Wetter kann man seine Zeit mit Billard oder Tischtennis vertreiben. Das Haus ist sehr offen gestaltet, so dass man überall die tolle Aussicht genießen kann. Der Pool ist sauber und wird regelmäßig gewartet. Der Kontakt zur Vermieterin ist schnell und unkompliziert, da wir sehr spät ankamen, wurde sogar für uns eingekauft. Draußen gibt es eine sehr schöne Terrasse, auf der man den Blick bis zum Meer genießen kann und überall gibt es Liegen und Sitzgelegenheiten. Ich kann diese Villa nur von ganzem Herzen empfehlen und wir kommen bestimmt wieder

Die Lage ist optimal mit wunderschönem Blick auf die Bucht von Plakias, viele schöne Strände sind nach kurzer Fahrzeit erreichbar. Die Taverna Mariou vor Ort ist unbedingt zu empfehlen.

Exellent villa
This is how it's supposed to be. The villa is very comfortable. It's even more spacious then it looks like on the pictures. The views are stunning. On arrival we found a welcome package with food and drinks. Very helpful as we arrived late. The beach and restaurants are a very short drive away. The owner Nicole is very nice and helpful and always quick to reply. The house was cleaned halfway and the pool every day. Absolutely recommend this villa.
