Villa Charmony

We have just returned from a week staying in the topmost villa pictured. We arrived at night having been met by Vasillis the excellent english speaking owner who proudly showed us the spotless interior with all its modern gadgetry and ultra modern layout and gave us all the information on the best places to go and visit. In the morning we awoke to find breathtaking views of the coastline of Kissamos Bay between the Gramvousa peninsula and the old port of Kissamos. We were able to swim and relax in our spacious and private terrace and infinity pool with the mountain backdrop and tranquility emphasising what a paradise spot this is.This is a very special place - not cheap but worth the extra costs one could expect of 5 star. The owner was always at hand if we needed anything and his hospitality was exceptional. Whilst we had a car to explore this part of the island we were able to walk in the evening down the hill and through the olive groves to the quaint local village of Kaliviana where there were two very good Cretan restaurants. Also very near by are a couple of good fishing restaurants in the old port.Further afield there are dozens of small typically unspoilt villages worthy of visiting as well as fantastic sandy beaches at Falasarna, Balos Bay and Elafanissi. Kissamos has all the necessary facilties that one could expect in a small town.
We cannot speak more highly of Youphoria and no doubt we will return.
