Great villa, fantastic roof terrace, amazing host!
We actually stayed at Villa Pasiphae for three months when we moved to Crete this spring. The house is spacious and well equipped, even for a stay as long as ours. We spent many hours on the roof terrace, relaxing and enjoying the view. There’s almost always a good breeze, which makes it a very pleasant place to while away a few hours with a bottle of wonderful Cretan wine. There is an off street parking space (which took a bit of practice to master maneuvering), and a securely fenced garden (much appreciated by my dogs!). Close to the beaches and tavernas in Karteros, and just a few minutes drive into Kokkini Hani, there’s always lots to do. Only 15 minutes into Heraklion center, and 5 minutes from the airport... you can watch the planes landing from the roof. Very convenient location. The host, Chris, was fabulous. Always on hand to help with any questions, and to make sure we were happy in the villa. Would definitely recommend this villa to anyone staying in this area. Only negative I can give is that there is only air conditioning in the living room and one bedroom, the other bedrooms get quite warm.

Tolle Villa nahe Irakleiou
Sehr schöne und sehr saubere Ferienwohnung in einzel stehender Villa. Gigantisch große und wunderbare Dachterrasse mit Außenküche und Aussicht aufs Meer über die gesamte Bucht. Mit allem eingerichtet, was man braucht. Sehr zuvor kommende Vermieter, unkompliziert und immer in Kontakt. Perfekte Ausgangslage für Inselerkundung aber auch Badeurlaub. Mietwagen empfehlenswert.

It's a beautiful surprise.
Abbiamo trovato una casa fornita di tutto, fresca, accogliente come il proprietario, premuroso nel fornirci qualunque cosa avessimo bisogno. Complimenti a Chris. P.S. Le cene fatte sul magnifico barbecue sulla terrazza, al tramonto, resteranno impresse nella nostra memoria per molto tempo.

Bel appartement
Bel appartement, très propre, spacieux et bien aménagé avec balcon et une très grande terrasse sur le toit Hôte courtois et disponible. Proche de l'aéroport, ce qui présente des avantages, mais aussi quelques nuisances sonores si l'on garde les fenêtres ouvertes, mais il y a des ventilateurs au plafond et l'air conditionné donc cela n'a pas posé de problème. Il faut par contre savoir que louer une voiture est indispensable pour profiter de son séjour à Karteros car les voies d'accès au village et à la plage ne sont pas prévues pour les piétons, ce qui présente quelques dangers, surtout avec des enfants. Une bonne base de départ pour se déplacer en Crète en voiture, car on fait vite le tour de ce que le village a à offrir.

Maison très spacieuse avec très belle terrasse avec vue sur la mer.
La maison située à la campagne non loin d'Heraklion est spacieuse et très bien aménagée. Elle dispose de deux terrasses, l'une au rez de chaussée ornée de bougainvillées, l'autre, très vaste à l'étage offrant une très belle vue sur l'aéroport et sur la mer. Cette dernière est en partie couverte et est aménagée avec un barbecue maçonné, une très grande table et des bancs de bois. La salle de bain et la douche sont grandes et commodes. Le propriétaire est venu nous chercher à l'entrée du village pour nous conduire chez lui et nous a donné la possibilité de nous garer à l'intérieur de la propriété. Cependant, la place étant un peu étroite pour notre voiture de location, nous avons préféré nous garer sur un terrain situé un peu avant la maison ce qui a pu se faire sans problème. L'équipement de la maison est complet. À peu de distance on peut trouver des restaurants et une plage ainsi que quelques petits commerces d'alimentation ouverts même à une heure tardive. Nous avons fait un séjour fort agréable dans cet endroit à partir duquel il est aisé de visiter Heraklion et ses alentours.

Große Villa nahe Hieraklion
Die Villa Pasiphae Karteros Bay ist günstig in der Nähe von Hieraklion und nahe zum Meer gelegen. Die Wohnräume sind neu ausgebaut bzw. renoviert, die Gesamtanlage gibt aber wegen des nicht fertig ausgebauten Einfahrtsbereichs und Kellers einen nicht ganz fertigen Eindruck. Die Inneneinrichtung und Küchenausstattung ist komplett, allerdings waren einige der Matratzen hart und unbequem. WLAN war sehr gut, TV war nicht angeschlossen. Die sehr große Dachterrasse mit überdachter Pallisade und großem, überdachtem Grillbereich bietet eine schöne Aussicht (für schöne Abendstimmung) (konnten wir wegen schlechtem Wetter leider nicht nutzen).
