Elounda Maris Villa Mirabello

Fantastic location, easily walkable into Plaka. Lovely private villa with plenty of space and large pool

Very good place ear the beaches, restaurants, supermarket... Etc.
The villa is nice and the pool is facing the sea.
Cleaning is daily which is a great plus.
Good stay

We really liked this accommodation, especially for its location: just 50 meters from a beautiful beach, with crystal clear water and a really pleasant atmosphere. The apartment is cozy, well maintained, and equipped with everything you need for a relaxing stay. The pool is also very nice, clean, and perfectly maintained. A property that we absolutely recommend to those looking for comfort, relaxation, and the possibility of enjoying the sea just a few steps from the house.

Fantastic Villa overlooking Plaka. The host and cleaning team were amazing and nothing was too much trouble. Location is walkable to Plaka with great restaurants and beach options. The pool is fantastic and a really good size. Overall very happy and would recommend.

We’ve visited Plaka many times and this was a wonderful location and space for our large group! The views are amazing, the infinity pool splendid, and the space thoughtfully coordinated. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend. The hosts were communicative and very responsive to our every need or question. The property is walking distance to beach and town, albeit uphill when returning. It is truly a gem and we shall return!

We absolutely loved our stay at this villa. The location was fantastic, with a great selection of lovely restaurants all within walking distance.
The pool was large, spotless, and perfect for relaxing, and the views were extraordinary and made the stay even more special.
Communication was excellent throughout, and the host was incredibly responsive and helpful, even arranging some basic groceries to be stocked in the villa before our arrival, which was very appreciated.
The daily cleaning service was also a huge benefit and helped make our stay feel effortless. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

Well-equipped, perfect for holidays with friends or family

Nearby are cosy streets with picturesque views, harbours, shops and plenty of restaurants. Clean villa, daily cleaning.

The villa is beautiful, the pool feels like a dream, and everything is so clean and comfortable. The location is perfect, close to everything. Daily cleaning was a great bonus. Our kids loved it, and we’d love to come back again. Highly recommend!

Village très sympa de plaka. Prestations hôtelières. Séjour d’une semaine en famille magnifique. Je recommande vivement.

Perfect location and stunning views of Elounda Bay

So restful. Pool wonderful. Views spectacular. Place was clean and modern

You do need a car with a big engine to get up the drive as it is quite steep, also the sunbeds need a cover as very uncomfortable, Property very clean and cleaner very friendly. overall the area is great and we had a very relaxing holiday.. The view is spectacular.

We spent a week in this marvellous place. The amenities are perfect and so is the service. Plaka is a small gem next to Elounda, quiet and peaceful. Upon our arrival we received fruits, bread, butter and jam, along with a bottle of wine. There is daily cleaning service. The infinite pool is magnificent. We could see the sunrise from the terrace. The beds are extremely comfortable and so it is the air conditioning, extremely necessary. There are several restaurants within walking distance. I would recommend 100%.

Gorgeous place in a hamlet with truly great restaurants (Giovanni’s and Carob Tree were especially good), shops and boats headed to Spinalonga every 45 minutes. Elounda is a short drive and Agios Nikolas half an hour away, beautiful beaches that were perfect for our kids (5 & 7). The house itself is solid and big, the pictures don’t do it, or the views, justice.

The villa was very modern with a stunning view of Spinalonga island and the sea. The main floor had a great balcony with a dining table and the pool was large and beautiful. The host also assisted us to schedule a private chef to cook us a dinner at the villa. There were several nice restaurants in an otherwise quiet and small village.

We loved it and little extra touches just made the stay more enjoyable. Thanks!

The owners were very helpful too, when our flights were really delayed by the major storm crashing over Crete on the day of our arrival. Many thanks.

Perfect to relax, great pool It was a pleasure to stay at Antonis house . It’s well equipped very well located . Highly recommended!!

We enjoyed a wonderful week at this villa in September. We know Plaka quite well and it is a terrific town with great restaurants, bars and shops/facilities. The villa was SO much better than the pictures - we were delighted! The villa is private with an amazing view and lots of space both internally and externally. The pool is the best we have come across - warm (always) and big enough with an lovely infinity outlook. The villa has lovely fittings, great towels, bedding and gowns and everything you need for a relaxing stay. The staff were helpful and communicative. We would thoroughly recommend this villa for your holiday.

Had a lovely stay at Elounda Maris Villa! The location and service was exceptional! Had a really great time lounging around by the pool! The view was spectacular! Thank you Antonis, for hosting our stay!

We had a wonderful stay at the Villa Mirabello. The pictures do not do justice to how spacious, light and airy the villa is - with extensive outside spaces and plenty of areas to relax and take in the breathtaking views. The villa is beautifully set up and the daily cleaning service was a bonus with a friendly and helpful member of staff. We were met bang on time when we arrived and received a welcome gift of some wine and food and fruit which was a lovely touch. The pool is the best we have had - a perfect size and temperature - and easy to stay in there gazing down at Plaka or out to sea. Other reviews have mentioned the lack of crockery and this is still a bit minimal - but more than enough for us. A few more personal touches in the decor and artwork and some notes about the villa and area would be helpful. However, we loved our stay, felt very lucky an will return - thank you.

Great place, extremely well-designed and clean, beautiful infinity pool and garden with breath-taking view. Perfect location - walking distance from the nearby village and a short drive to Elounda and various amazing beaches. We enjoyed our stay very much - highly recommended!

Comfortable house with a wonderful view of Spinalonga and Plaka. Fantastic outdoor spaces. The only negative of the house was the kitchen was not well set up for any serious cooking - we could never get the stove to work - but Plaka has so many great restaurants it was not a big deal for us. Housekeeping service was an unexpected bonus.

Vue à couper le souffle, emplacement au top et maison agréable. Manque juste peut être un peu de vaisselle, mais on a fait notre part en laissant sur place un économe et une rappe!

The villa is a great property in a wonderful location overlooking Plaka although it is a steep climb up the 100m driveway to the property! Lovely pool, large patio area, nice dining area with great view, and inside the villa was well laid out. Availability of daily cleaning was certainly an unexpected luxury. Despite being one of three close villas, privacy was certainly not a problem at all as due to the design we were not overlooked. Our only small issue was the small number of pots/pans and limited crockery (e.g. we had to buy our own mugs as there were only small cups available!).

Plaka itself is a lovely resort with a village atmosphere. There are numerous restaurants to try and a number of friendly bars. Plus of course the island of Spinalonga is a short 10 minute boat ride away and well worth a visit, especially if you have read The Island by Victoria Hislop!

Overall a very enjoyable stay and we would recommend both the villa and Plaka. We will be returning!

Thank you to the Maris family for giving us the opportunity to stay in this fabulous villa, as advertised. The location was perfect the house was spectacular. We can wait to return

Nous avons pleinement pu profiter de notre séjour à Plaka! L'accueil était chaleureux comme tous les gens que nous avons pu rencontrer pendant nos vacances en Crète. La villa Mirabello super avec une vue exceptionnelle, grande terrasse et magnifique piscine. Toute était propre et la femme de ménage passait tous les matins. En plus, la plage et l'idyllique village de Plaka accessible à 5 minutes à pied.

Si je dois mentioner un point moins fort: l'équipement de la cuisine, services et vaisselle devrait être completé. Et le chantier bruyant à proximité sera certainement bouclé quand on reviendra.

When my daughter and I and my two grandchildren left Villa Mirabello last year we knew we wanted to return ... and so we did. Couldn't wait to get there.. This villa certainly lives up to its name . It's location is superb ... One of three high quality villas , it sits in a elevated position with a breathtaking view across the Bay of Mirabello towards the beautiful island of Spinalonga and within five minutes walk of the unspoilt fishing village of Plaka. The minute you walk in you begin to relax . The villa is immaculate and has everything. You could possibly need down to luxury bathrobes and slippers and lovely little touches like essentials in the fridge fruit and water plus a box of biscuit from the owners bakery means that whatever time you arrive you will not go hungry ! The owner Kostas is lovely and couldn't be more helpful , nothing is too much trouble . The villa and pool , which is just beautiful are cleaned regularly and there are plenty of loungers and areas of sun and shade so everyone is happy ! Plaka itself is perfect , relaxing and quiet but with lovely tavernas and shops including a perfectly adequate supermarket with delightful owners .. In fact you need go no further if you just want to rest but I would recommend you get out and about and see this beautiful part of Crete ., it has everything .. Elounda is a bustling fishing port about ten minutes drive away and Agios Nikolaos should not be missed ! The island of Spinalonga is my absolute favourite though ...ia short boat ride from Plaka and totally mesmerising both fictionally and historically ! Again , we cannot wait to return ...will be counting the days ! ol Th

More beautiful than expected. Plaka is small but Eluonda is close by and has all you need
Warm welcome with box of cookies and breakfast foods upon arrival. Property manager readily available
