Villa DORE- a secret gem of Elounda.

What an amazing place to stay and have your family reunion at. The entire family (combo US and CZ) felt like we hit a Jackpot in Crete. So relaxing, quiet, clean and beautiful place with gorgeous views. Definitely would come back or recommend to anyone who enjoys privacy and relaxation.

Wonderful stay in Elounda

The house is very clean and nice. It has great views.The exterior of the house was the highlight with the infinity pool, pool chairs, dining table and outdoor shower bathroom.Even though the house is on the mountain, the location is good for easy access to supermarket, restaurants and beach. Would definitely recommend this house. We loved our stay.

Elounda bliss

The property was exemplary! Almost didn't want to venture out because the villa was so nice to be at! My family were so delighted with the view of the harbour from the poolside!

Loved it

We were 3 couples on a sampler trip through parts of Europe. This house was a highlight of our trip. We loved the view, the pool, the friendliness and responsiveness of the host, the usefulness of everything in the house. We had a couple of small issues but when we told the host, they were going to get them taken care of. It was hard to leave when our time came.

Wonderful views, lovely villa

Villa Dore is an impressive villa with wonderful views. Nathalie was an excellent host and the problems with the pool we had on arrival were swiftly rectified. The villa is spacious and clean and has everything you could possibly need. The villa is about a 20 minute walk from Elounda, which is a pleasant walk. The villa is on a very steep hill so I would recommend a hire car, but the views across the bay are amazing. We enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful hillside villa with stunning views

Stayed at Villa Doré for 11 days. Two couples. Everything was perfect. The pool was was wonderful. Lots of outside space. Short walk down into Elounda which has a large selection of restaurants and a lovely beach. We’d planned quite a few day trips but the villa is so lovely and peaceful that we spent most of the time by the pool enjoying the stunning views or on the beach enjoying the delicious food in the local restaurants. Would thoroughly recommend this villa

A wonderful Two weeks

We had a fabulous two weeks staying at Villa Dore, the views are just amazing and you can never get bored of looking at them. The town of Elounda has most things you would need during your stay and lots of lovely restaurants. The pool and outside space was fantastic being a family consisting of us and 2 adult daughters and their boyfriends it meant we all had lots of space not to be on top of each other. We all agreed even after 2 wks we could have easily stayed longer. Thank you so much for letting us stay in your lovely villa. Paul & Ally x

Picture perfect view and pool

Great property and holiday. The town is down the hill with restaurants near by not in Elounda and some of the best. The one problem we had with the aircon was addressed quickly. The only reason for not giving 5 stars is the strange feeling being very conscious of turning off the aircon when leaving for day. In fairness the house kept cool with them off, but far too many notices did distract from just enjoying the facilties paid for. Great property.

Villa Dore July 23

Location and view from Villa Dore were great and we had a super stay, despite sweltering heat. I think it worth mentioning in notes sent prior to arrival that the roads up are very very steep and our hire car couldnt make it on the recommended route to villa. Luckily we found different route in and Rose then told us another easier route in and out of Elounda. We are a fit family, but contrary to other reviews ,it was a much longer walk into town than 20 minutes and we had to drive. Also, the photos are fairly deceptive - it felt alot more compact inside with the only living space being the kitchen which was alot smaller than the photos and we only had the annexe of the house, though the owner is never present when the villa is let. The kitchen was not that well supplied and 2 rings with no oven just a microwave meant cooking was not ideal for a family of 4. Also, other villas usually leave at least salt, bit of cooking oil, foil , dishclothes etc but the cupboards were bare. We had a really relaxing stay and the pool, terrace and view were wonderful.

The most amazing view - highly recommended

Over the years we have stayed in many Villas - but this one tops the lot. The check-in process from Dimitri was easy - I love the private auto gates and the windy drive up to the property. The 3 bedrooms are a nice size - the two on the first floor have balconies. The pool is lovely - really deep at one end which is great - but the view from the pool is amazing. The owners and Demitri were very helpful - I honestly can’t recommend highly enough. We will back.

vacances familiales

Un logement fonctionnel mais avec une pièce de vie un peu petite. Des travaux d'une villa en construction juste à côté ont un peu gâché la tranquillité du lieu y compris pendant le week-end. Villa bien située entre Elounda et Plaka mais il est fortement recommandé d'avoir une voiture.

Eine wunderschöne Villa, ruhig, nahe am Meer, mit Pool zum Alleingebrauch

Eine ganz schöne Villa, ruhig, dennoch in Gehdistanz entfernt vom Meer und vom ansprechenden Ferienort Elounda. Wunderbarer Ausblick und Pool. Es hat nichts gefehlt. Beim Ankommen hatten wir eine kleine Unsicherheit: Es geht um eine Doppelvilla, von der an uns eine Hälfte vermietet wurde (die rechte, vom Meer gesehen), und wir waren nicht sicher, ob die andere Hälfte ebenfalls belegt sein wird (dann hätten wir den Pool teilen müssen). Allerdings haben wir von Rose, die uns begrüsst hat, erfahren, dass die Besitzer immer nur eine Hälfte vermieten, die andere Hälfte haben sie zum eigenen Gebrauch. So hatten wir eine komplette Ruhe und den Pool nur für uns alleine.

Wonderful and idyllic

We had the most fantastic family holiday here we were 5 adults and stayed 3 weeks here . We did not want to leave and is by far the best villa we have ever rented . The pool area and whole outside area was delightful and extremely spacious . Everything is bigger than the photos . All bedrooms are lovely with sea views and very comfortable . Kitchen is very well equipped and straight out onto outdoor area . Rose who looks after the house was amazing and a wealth of information Nothing is too much trouble if you need anything .she strives to make your stay comfortable Luke who looks after the pool is very friendly and really cares about your experience at the pool which is so well maintained Nathalie the owner is lovely and always on hand . We had a rental car but rarely used it as the tavernas and beach were so close walking about 15 minutes to the square and about 8 minutes to the beach The view from the infinity pool is outstanding and from the whole house . It is breathtaking Bathrooms are all modern and the outside shower was wonderful . We all took our evening showers outside as it was an amazing experience We will really miss this place and will definately return in the future

Beautiful location and a great summer venue

The location is excellent and in comfortable walking distance of Elounda with all of its restaurants and shops. The view from the villa is stunning and the outdoor facilities of the villa are good. The pool is very nice and relatively deep. It was also very well maintained. The inside of the villa was a bit of a disappointment as the living area is inadequate for 6 adults and the bathroom arrangements should have been better described. However, as the weather was so good, much of the time was spent outside but I would not recommend this villa for the shoulders of the season.

Tolle Insel, schönes Haus und einfach ein erholsamer Urlaub

Wir sind super glücklich mit der Villa gewesen, haben einen wunderschönen Urlaub in Elounda verbracht. Die Zimmeraufteilung war für uns vier Paare nicht perfekt, aber das wusste wir vorher und haben uns dennoch für diese Unterkunft entschieden. Der Außenbereich mit Pool und sitzecke für alle Gäste hat uns am meisten begeistert.

Beautiful view

The house had a magical view from the pool and outdoor areas. The drive to get to the property was quiet tricky but we got better at it as the days went on. The house had a lot of deferred maintenance and even some moldly utensils in the kitchen. However, I think we were the first rental of the season.

Great place near Eloundia

Really good villa, well equided in good condition. New bath-rooms, nice pool, good panorama view on Elounida, near mountains and sea. Good check-in and check-out proceedure. WLAN ok but limited to kitchen area. Driving and finding the villa is even with description a bit of an adventure. TV is without connection to Central European stations and is receiving mainly TV stations from Middle East/Africa what was of little use to us. Still a good place to stay for a couple of nights.

Fantastic Villa

We have just returned from a weeks stay in Villa Dore. We were 6 adults and I can say it was one of the best villas we have stayed in. The villa was spotlessly clean and well equipped with every thing that we needed including towels to use around the pool. The views from the villa were fabulous and it only took a 15 minute stroll into Elounda each evening. coming back was a bit longer as it is uphill which didn't bother us. Nathalie the owner was excellent. She answered all our enquiries quickly and was easy to communicate with. We would definitely recommend Villa Dore to others.
