Villa Bougainvillea, Stunning Sea view, Near Almyrida, 2 Private Pools, Sleeps 7

Note March 2025: Construction work in the neighborhood is completely finished. No need to worry about the construction noise.

Nestled in the hillside above Souda Bay, Villa Bougainvillea offers a spectacular panoramic ocean view, two private outdoor swimming pools (1 adult pool L7xW4xD1.2 m and 1 childrens paddling pool D45 cm) and private gated drive with ample parking. Sleeps 7 plus cot.

The villa is beautifully furnished and features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a living area and kitchen. Each bedroom and living area has french doors to balconies with mountain & sea views. Full air conditioning in all rooms.

The villa is fully equipped with everything you will need for a fabulous home from home, luxury holiday. WIFI Internet connection, leather sofas (1 sofa bed), smart HD TV, dishwasher, washing machine, fridge/freezer, coffee maker, juicer, toaster, kettle, slow cooker and so on.

The balconies, pool and pool terrace with BBQ are illuminated at night for that perfect relaxing evening for Al Fresco entertaining and maybe a midnight swim. Plenty of outside table and chairs, sunbeds and umbrellas with a choice of locations to sit from a private terrace, to by the pool, to on each balcony.

For families with small children, the children's pool is adjacent to the main private swimming pool, ideal for the children to play safely whilst you enjoy a swim or relax on a sun bed by the pool. Moveable umbrellas with sturdy stands so that you can position the umbrella over the children's pool to protect little ones from the sun. A range of children's pool toys are available. If the children are happy, Mum and Dad are happy!

With luggage restrictions getting tighter with airlines save on your weight allowance: A travel cot with bedding is provided so no need to haul your own from home. Books, hairdryers, stairgate and beach towels are also available for your use.

The houses either side of our villa are privately owned and not used as a full time residence or holiday let, and therefore for the majority of the year they are empty. Villa Bougainvillea is indeed an oasis located amongst nature, in a peaceful and quiet location with full privacy.

*** December 2024, the Greek parliament approved a bill increasing the daily tax on short-term rental and hotel accommodation. This measure has come into effect for all arrivals January 2025 onwards. This increase aims to combat climate change and support reconstruction efforts after Greeceā€™s 2023 extreme weather events, building resilience for a sustainable future. Going forward, the daily tax for hotel and holiday rental accommodation will increase to 15-euros per night during the summer season (2 euros per night for smaller properties).

The Vrbo system does not yet have a section for collecting the Climate Resilience Levy and we have, therefore, had to add it to the billing section as an extra fee which will show on the booking as either a Host Fee or an Adminsitrative Fee.

Whilst we understand the potential budget concerns of our guests, this tax is beyond our control and we encourage our guests to see this as a way of contributing to the protection of the planet and the beautiful area where they are holidaying.

building noise
The villa was as advertised however our holiday was spoilt by the noise coming from several neighbouring villas that are under construction.With constant drilling, hammering and sawing from various power tools starting at 8.00am to 4.00pm every day including weekends, we chatted to a local resident who confirmed the building works had been going on for at least the last 6 months, I am very disappointed that our hosts didn't inform us of the noise issues before we booked and paid !. I would strongly recommend that anyone thinking of booking this villa should not do so for at least 12 months hopefully by then the building works should have ceased.

Fantastic property, superb location
Our stay at Villa Bougainvillea was faultless from start to finish. The pictures of the Villa and its outstanding location do not do it justice. From the initial booking, Jennifer has been the perfect host, always responding to any queries in a timely manner and the checking in details were fantastic. We had a few issues with the water supply during our 10 day stay (something that is common in this area and we were aware of) but Jennifer did her utmost to rectify the situation and it did not affect our holiday at all. The villa has everything that you need to enjoy a relaxing break and the location is absolutely perfect for exploring western Crete. The views from the villa are breathtaking. Nearby Plaka and Almyrida are great for soaking up the holiday atmosphere with many great Tavernas. The locals are super friendly and you can be sure of a warm welcome. It was our first visit to Crete and weā€™ve no doubt that weā€™ll be returning. We have fallen completely in love with this island and made some everlasting family memories during our stay at this wonderful villa. Thank you Jennifer.

Excellent villa
This is a superb villa option and perfect for our mixed age group of parents, adult children and grandma. The villa is very clean, really well stocked with what you need and with stunning views over Souda Bay. You need a car to explore but we loved the location. Plaka has a number of restaurants and is only a short stroll away and the hidden cove of Koutalas is an absolute gem.

Lovely well equipped villa with stunning views
We had a wonderfully relaxing stay. The villa is very clean, well designed and well equipped - great modern appliances, aircon+ceiling fans in all rooms, lots of balconies with hooks on all doors to let air flow, extensive kitchen utensils and crockery, and pristine pool. The views are stunning. The 15min walk up to the village is lovely with a good taverna and a good mini market - and great walk back down the slopes looking across the bay at night. Easy drive to Plaka for more tavernas and mini-markets, and to Almyreda for beach days.

Fabulous family holiday
We have just returned from a wonderful week away. The villa has the most amazing view which just made our holiday extra special. Due to the elevated position a car is essential especially for a family with younger children but in the evening the taxis were reliable and reasonably priced. The villa is well equipped and comfortable and the pool area has plenty of inflatables and toys to amuse the children. We loved the beach side restaurants in Almyrida which cost aprox 15 euros in a taxi. Contact with the owner was quick and efficient. We would love to return one day soon and would recommend this property.

Stunning views at a lovely villa
We have stayed here for four years in a row and absolutely love it. The villa is spacious and beautiful and the views are fabulous. We really enjoy the area...a bit away from the crowds but close to great food and beaches.

So beautiful
I was there with some friends and we loved it. The view was beautiful and the Villa had everything you Need. When we arrived we had a ā€žwelcome packā€œ with coffee, tea and some bread so we had a Little bit to eat. The normal Check in Time was at 2 oā€˜clock but we arrived earlier and it wasnā€˜t a Problem to Check in earlier. The Service was very good... if you Need something or you have a question they answer very fast. So the Villa and the Service are so good and you can have nice holidays there. Enjoy:)
