“Good”
+The outside area
−The hill getting up to the property. One of the reviews said it was an easy walk. We are both very fit and active but there is no way anyone with mobility issues could handle that steep incline. Felt it was misleading

“Clean and comfortable villa with unreal views”
+It was very clean and very comfortable with a great location. We were able to walk into Elounda in about 10 mins. We enjoyed the pool area and BBQ facilities. The host is also very helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be back.
−One thing to note is not to close the patio door when outside at the pool as it has a tendency to lock itself if it’s closed too hard. We just closed over the bug net when at the pool to make sure.

“Great stay, be prepared for a steep hill, careful with the slippery floors”
+Clean, well maintained with a super good view
−Very steep and narrow to get to the top of the hill where the villa is. Pool area, while beautiful, extremely slippery. Great view but the backyard really needs and umbrella. For what you pay that should be included.

“Excellent. The hosts were fantastic kind enough to let us stay for as long as we wanted on our checkout day.”
+Very clean and spacious, exceptional views of the bay and Spinalonga peninsula.
−We loved the pool and patio area but felt a parasol would have been welcome so that we could enjoy the view in the morning for longer periods without having to apply sun cream.

“Very enjoyable relaxing stay, Villa had excellent facilities and sea views”
+Well equipped villa with a great sea view and outlook. Television connections also worked for satellite channels in English
−New Villa building and development work on the plot of land in front of the Villa did provide some disruption to peace and quiet during our stay. Parking access to the Villa was a little tight, although manageable with the small car we hired (i10) would be an issue for larger cars.

“Great villa base”
+Excellent villa, very clean, comfortableand good facilities. Nice and easy to get into Elounda.
−Parking space was a bit tight. You need a hire car, but it needs to be small. We were able to use the drive of adjourning villa to turn round in, but if they were occupied it would have been very difficult to get the car in and out - but not a game changer for us.

“Lovely villa in stunning location, up high on a hill, which was fine for us as we have no mobility problems, but would n”
+Beautiful location, amazing views. Had everything we needed.
−Could’ve done with a little more basic information in arrival folder, eg. As it was so early in the season, and our first few days were not sunny enough for the solar panels to heat the water, there was no info available to tell us where immersion heater was. After cold showers on our first day, I messaged the guy that looked after the property & he came over to show us promptly, but would’ve been nice to have had that info before our cold showers!

“Amazing villa with stanning views, total privacy and very helpful host. highly recommended”
+Our stay at Villa Helios in Elounda was exceptional. The villa is modern, spotless, and fully equipped with everything needed for a relaxing vacation. The view over the bay is stunning, and the outdoor area with the private pool is perfect for total relaxation. The location is ideal,close to Elounda but still very quiet and private. The host was friendly, helpful, and always available. Highly recommended. We would definitely stay here again.
−Everything was amazing

+I have never seen the view better than from the balcony of the house. The house is cosy and very clean. I hope to return.
