Lovely villa
This is a beautiful villa with extremely nice hosts who left a delicious Moussaka on the first evening. Its perfect for two families , there is plenty of space both inside and outside with the grounds being particularly nice. The pool is great , we had it heated as it was at the end of the season. You probably need a car as its little remote but there are mini markets nearby. We used both the pizza oven and bbq which were really nice evenings. I would highly recommend this villa We used

Amazing villa centrally located between Heraklion and Chania, as well as near highways.
The villa location is right in the middle of Crete, about equidistant to Chania and Heraklion, as well as near the major highway that connects north to south - making it ideal for travelling around. The villa was an amazing place to stay, spacious, modern and full of amenities. Steam shower - Gym, Heat Pool - Pool Table - Ping Pong table - Outdoor cooking (We hired private chef for a few nights) just to name a few. The hosts met us upon arrival and provided a great tour and details needed for the stay and were very gracious. They were very helpful with information about the island and recommended places, restaurants and things to do. Would highly recommend the villa!

This villa is absolutely stunning, from the moment we walked through the gates we were blown away! Kiki and Thomas were there to greet us and show us around, Kiki had made one of her famous "made with love" moussaka's and it didn't disappoint! The villa was absolutely spotless, we found no faults, from the spectacular sunrise at the back of the villa to the stunning sunset at the front of the villa! Everything we needed for our stay was ready and available. The grounds of the property are just as stunning as the property it's self with several seating areas around the stunning pool. We also made great use of the Poole table inside and the ping pong table outside ! There was lots of information available within the villa for days out etc, and Kiki was available if we needed anything ! There is a bus stop located near by ,taxi service available and a few local shops,cafe and restaurants available near by. We would absolutely love to return one day to this villa.It was beyond our expectations. We shall keep Kiki and Thomas updated with our souvenirs yearly !!! Thank you for hosting us !!!

We were two families with 5 kids (age 6 - 13) and the villa was perfect. Spotlessly clean, spacious, very tastefully decorated with everything we needed for a weeks stay. The outside area is beautiful and the sunsets from the balcony are stunning. KiKi our host could not have been more helpful or accommodating. Would 100% recommend.

Absolute heaven on earth!
You see lovely pictures in brochures but often the reality disappoints, not this time, the communication before we went, the arrival greeting and overall villa were just fantastic. The villa is tucked away like a diamond in the rough but boy is it worth it - beautifully designed with the bedrooms on the lower ground making the most of the sea views from the terrace above where you can watch the sunsets while sipping G&T or wine. The weather was also perfect with long sunny days and calm balmy evenings - the air conditioning made sleeping comfortable and everything was just so lovely - we cannot thank Thomas and Kiki enough for their attention to detail. Thomas' design and planting of the garden made for an oasis. The welcoming Moussaka was a treat and delicious. Being away from the crowded tourist spots, we found the neighbours welcoming as they waved hello from their terraces as we walked by. The local supermarket and beach restaurant staff were also friendly and the latter found it funny to watch us brits take shots of complimentary tequila when we ate there. If I had to make any recommendation to fellow travellers, I would say hire a car as the villa, although only 20 mins walk from local restaurant and small supermarket, it is quite a way when it is 30 degrees, few pavements and carrying bottles of water back. We managed to hire one for three days while there meant we could travel further and enjoy the local caves and towns. Highly recommend this villa.

Beautiful villa & location, amazing hosts!
We have just had an lovely week in this amazing villa. It was so much bigger than it looked in photos meaning we had plenty of space as 8 adults and 2 children. Kiki and Thomas kindly organised an extra mattress for us too. The sunsets from the terrace are the most beautiful I’ve ever seen every single night. Our flight was delayed and diverted on our way out so we arrived very late. Kiki kept in contact and made sure we arrived OK. She also left her delicious homemade mousakka in the oven for us :) There are some great restaurants withing a few mins drive and we visited the old town Rhythmno a couple of times for dinner too (15/20mins by car). Bali beach is a must visit. Thank you to Kiki and Thomas for all your help and allowing us to stay in your beautiful villa!

We had a lovely week and wanted to stay longer! Lovely position not too high up the hill, enough for wonderful views of the sunset over the sea, but easily accessible by car. Some great restaurants nearby, and bakery and supermarkets wirhin walking distance. Kiki kindly made us moussaka for dinner on our first night and was very helpful showing us around. We all enjoyed the pool, and the boys loved ping pong, gym equipment and pool table. The villa is amazing!

Luxurious Villa set in beautiful landscaped gardens
This villa does not disappoint on any level. Thomas and Kiki are the most delightful couple you could ever meet. The warm welcome you receive on arrival along with the famous moussaka do not disappoint. They genuinely want you to have the best holiday at their gorgeous villa and you can see how much pride they take in looking after it and maintaining the grounds and pool. They are just a phone call away if you ever need them. Not that we did because everything was just wonderful. The pool is heated to a lovely temperature and is a great size. The gardens look even better than in the photos as they are somewhat more established and are just beautiful. There is always sun and shade available for everyone throughout the day round the pool and in the garden. The view of the sun setting from the balcony is just breathtaking. The layout of the villa is well thought out. Even the view from the kitchen window you can see the sea and also watch the farmers working in the fields and see olive grows dotted on the landscape. The air conditioning is fantastic, the rooms are clean and spacious. The small village of Stavromenos is walkable and has some lovely restaurants and tavernas. There are also a couple of mini markets if you don’t have a hire car. If you haven’t visited Crete before I would highly recommend the Island and staying at this villa. We have come back relaxed, chilled and most importantly with lots of lovely memories because it was just perfect.

Exceptional Villa
We were a party of 8, 6 adults and 2 children but the villa is spacious enough to ensure that it never felt crowded. All the bedrooms are a good size with spacious beds and plenty of wardrobe space. The villa is well laid out and well equipped and the pool and gardens are a delight. In short, what you see in the video, you get. It was well into the 30's centigrade during our stay so the pool was especially welcome and the aircon coped admirably. There are plenty of outdoor eating areas if you fancy eating in and the wood fired pizza oven is fun to use and produces great pizzas. There is parking enough for 4 or 5 cars and the approach road doesn't make you nervous for your rental car like many we have experienced. Shops and supermarkets are easily reached and easy to park at. More than all this, however, are the wonderful hosts, Kiki and Thomas. Many have commented on Kiki's legendary welcome moussaka and it didn't disappoint. It was really welcome after a long day travelling. She and Thomas are friendly, genuinely welcoming and quickly respond to any queries or problems.

Paradise in Crete
We arrived late in the evening and our host Thomas was waiting to show us around the property. He went into detail about the area and gave us suggestions for what to do and see in Crete. As he was leaving, he opened the oven and showed us the moussaka warming in the oven that his wife Kiki had prepared for us. After a very long day of traveling it was the perfect gift! The gardens, grounds and pool put many 5 star resorts to shame. The surrounding area is beautiful with views of both the sea and the mountains. The house is spacious and includes a number of spots to rest and enjoy the view. The grill and pizza oven are thoughtfully stocked with local olive wood to inspire your work. It is heaven to enjoy a glass of wine, the warmth of the setting sun and the soft breeze while you work on the grill. No detail is missed including down pillows. We left wishing we had another week at the Velvet Breeze. Thank you Kiki and Thomas for a lovely week!

Can’t rate this villa and Kiki and Thomas as hosts highly enough. The villa is even better than the photos, spacious inside and out with fabulous gardens created by Thomas plenty of options for seating/eating, an awesome pool and a pool room with a view too!! Kiki and Thomas made us feel welcome with little surprise delights from Kiki throughout our stay- best hosts ever, attentive and happy to help/advise promptly - just genuinely nice people😀 We didn’t walk down to the local restaurants as we had a 2 year old and a pensioner but we did order some fabulous souvlaki/gyros for delivery and we found plenty of great restaurants in Rethymno, a short drive away. The only appropriate word to describe our visit is WOW 🤩 Thanks Thomas and Kiki 😀 I hope we will be back!

Luxurious, spacious & comfortable!
To say you’re in for a treat at Velvel Breeze villa is a massive understatement. The marketing pictures and videos are very accurate and when we arrived we were even more blown away by the scale of the property and its surrounding grounds. The villa is like a little piece of the Hollywood Hills right there overlooking the beautiful Cretian sea! There were 8 of us (6 adults and 2 kids, 4yrs and 8yrs old) and we had so much space and room in terms of all the living space, bedroom space and most importantly outside space. The pool is a great size and so cleverly thought out in terms of the views to the sea whilst taking a well needed dip. Thomas has designed a very beautiful a private garden offering aesthetics and practicality in the form of shade, enough poolside beds, outdoor living room space, outdoor toilet and poolside showers plus the added fun of the table tennis table 👍 The property is extremely high-spec and Thomas and Kiki have created a really beautiful home for their guests and in addition rank as the very best hosts we’ve ever had when staying in holiday villas abroad - wonderfully warm, friendly and helpful people who we look forward to staying in touch with. There’s no way you could be disappointed by this as a holiday experience. We can’t wait to go back...if it’s ever available ever again!!! Thank you Thomas and Kiki. You gave us the best holiday in Greece (and we’ve had several!) we can remember. See you soon and take care x

Stunning property, beautiful location, fantastic hosts.
My family and I (5 adults and 2 children) visited Velvet Breeze from 08/08/20 - 22/08/20. From the moment of booking the hosts Thomas and Kiki were very easy to reach and responded quickly to any questions we had. We were travelling during the pandemic so there was lots of uncertainty about our trip, but Thomas was very accommodating and understanding during this time. Fortunately we managed to travel and were greeted with a very warm welcome from Thomas and Kiki. A delicious homemade moussaka and Greek salad were waiting for us on arrival. Throughout our stay Thomas and Kiki’s hospitality and generosity was amazing and they ensured that we had everything we needed for our stay. The property itself is stunning and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. There is plenty of space and the outdoor area is fantastic. The children loved the pool and play area, and the outdoor kitchen is great for alfresco dining. The view to the front of the property is beautiful and we enjoyed watching many sunsets from the balcony. The property was immaculately presented and clean on arrival, and a cleaning service was offered throughout our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday to Crete, and Velvet Breeze made it perfect. We definitely want to return one day and would highly recommend it. Fay and family

Thomas' and Kiki's Velvet Breeze Villa is outstanding. They were welcoming and helpful from our initial email contact. Thomas greeted us on our arrival and Kiki provided us with a delicious, welcoming dinner while Thomas ' mother sent us dessert for our last night at their Villa. The Villa is beyond what you see in the pictures, with a breathtaking view of the Mediterrean and then you turn around and you are looking at snow capped mountains. Should I ever return to Greece I would definitely return to the Velevet Breeze Villa.

Snazzy villa - even better than the photos
Helpful from way before we even arrived, Thomas and Kiki were perfect hosts. Quick with advice and answers to our questions they made everything simple and clear. When we arrived they welcome us and show us where everything was in their beautifully appointed villa. Kiki had also left a delicious moussaka in the oven, which was a godsend after our day of travelling (she even returned a few days later with gooey chocolate puds and some freshly laid eggs). The villa had oodles of space and gorgeous furnishings, and the outside space was even better than the pictures (it is rare to find such lush grass late in October! Thomas is a horticulturist so has very green fingers). We were two families - nine in total - and we lived like royalty. The swimming pool was great for us all , including the 1 year old with us and the view from the water was fabulous. The outdoor play area was amazing too, and our 3-6 years olds spent hours busying themselves in the Wendy house and swings. The pool table was fun for impromptu adult tournaments too. There is an office which the kids turned into their secret hideout/Playroom. The beds are comfy with good linen. There are beaches close by but as we were there at the end of the season on a couple of days we chased the hot weather down to the south coast (and found some amazing beaches), and on other days just lazed around the pool and enjoyed the villa. Highly recommended to anyone reading this, and thank you Thomas and Kiki.
