Great villa with a spectacular location. Comfortable and big rooms. Fantastic pool area.
Kitchen utilities could have been bigger. Especially fridge and freezer.
Definitely a villa we will recommend.
8.0
The Villa has a fantastic sized pool and incredible view. It was lovely watching the sunsets. The location is quiet and appreciate all the bedrooms and bathrooms for multiple families staying. Lis was also very informative and resolved issues with the coffee maker we had right away.
We had a couple other things come up that were addressed. This is only improvement I would suggest is having some additional maintenance done as some of the property showed some wear and the basement bedroom had a damp/musky smell quite frequently and I expect a dehumidifier needs to be run consistently down there.
With that said we really enjoyed the villa, amazing views, pool and visiting the various beaches in the area and going to Chania Old Town.

This is a very special place and we all loved it (7-70+ years). There are breathtaking views from every single window. Big pool with more amazing sea views. Outdoor cooking facilities. Large, airy rooms. Everything spotless. Lots to see and do in the surrounding area. Great restaurants a short drive away. The property manager Lis is a goldmine of useful information and always on hand to help. 10/10.

Sarah, we are an international group of 8, from the US, UK snd Sweden. We visit a new place every 18 months or so. Villa Delfini was the best yet! We have stayed at Scottish castles, Villa Saraceno in Italy, Stockholm, Sonoma Valley in California, the Scilley islands and a couple of other places. This was our best ever! Lis was great and we had absolutely everything we needed. Thank you so much for sharing you Cretan home with us. Debbie Tyrrell will also be contacting you with some mutual experiences. Warmest regards, Betsy Hight

Can't fault the villa in any way. It's big (there were 13 of us) comfortable and spotless. Each room has an en suite and there are loads of other nice touches such as the big dining table and bbq area. It's fully kitted out and the pool is massive too. Our group has been going on holiday together for 10 years now and this is easily the best place we've stayed at. Good location and some decent places to eat within 5 mins by car. Shout out to Lis the property manager too who was really helpful with checking in, local knowledge etc. Considering coming back already.

Views are amazing, lovely sunset terrace, villa was very well equipped, any queries were dealt with quickly by the manager Lis who also gave us a map and showed us where to shop, eat and drink, and also arranged our airport transfers and details to hire a car. Comfy beds, perfect family spaces and pool is heated. Table tennis table and table football were both well used by the teenagers! Beautiful landscaped gardens too. We will definately be back, we all loved it!

We had a fantastic week at Villa Delphini. It is without doubt the best Villa that we have stayed in (we’ve stayed in quite a few over the years!), and it accommodated our group of nine with ease.
The house is both luxurious and homely, and equipped with everything you need. The pool is huge and the various terraces and outdoor areas are superb with plenty of loungers, seating areas and shade.
Sarah was excellent in recommending everything from car hire to places to visit when we booked, and Lis, the property manager, provided an great check in service when we arrived.
We’d love to return in the future and spend more time at this beautiful location.

We had a fantastic holiday in this villa! It had everything we wanted, plenty of space for our group (10 people) and a high standard of cleanliness throughout.
We would highly recommend this property.

Ahhh Delfini Villa...This is a breathtaking house! All the pictures can’t do justice to how it feels to sit at that table with your family and take in the view!
This is to say nothing of the pool, great location, well appointed spacious accommodations. The owner and property manager were very responsive in helping us plan and address any issues.
They helped us get a chef for a night who was also superb; a relaxing glorious night like in a movie ..we highly recommend this villa to anyone with a large group looking for a great Greek escape in Crete!
Thank you Sarah and Lis for the memories of a lifetime!!

Absolutely loved this property!! We were so excited about our family holiday and were so pleased when we arrived at the villa.
Stunning 360 degree views of the sea and mountains coupled with sunrises and sunsets made out holiday extra special.
You will see from the other reviews how helpful the property manager - Lis, and owner - Sarah are to their guests. I won't repeat anything but will confirm this to be true.
On our arrival, we were greeted by Lis who gave us an induction to the property, the space and the surrounding areas.
The property itself is, in my opinion, in the perfect location. You have plenty of privacy. Every window frames a beautiful view of either the mountains or the sea or the towns in the distance.
Each room was spacious and had enough storage space for our luggage and clothing. Bathrooms were also a good size.
We loved the split level living, the outdoor dining area and bbq, the pool, outdoor shower and the smaller dining area at the edge of the property.
The roll down shutters ensured a completely darkened room allowing for undisturbed sleep however the beds did take some getting used to. Whilst certainly sufficiently sized, a little soft for our liking.
We all felt very safe in the villa especially with the electric gate at the entrance of the villa.
The gardens were immaculate! Such a pleasant touch as these invited many beautiful butterflies. We noticed many other villa's did not have any plants or tree's which made us appreciate our space that much more.
I really hope to visit Crete again and if I do, I would very much look to stay here again.

Stunning views and sunsets
Spent a long awaited (due to COVID!) week at this lovely villa with 7 friends. The views are unbelievable from the pool. Lis (the property manager) was very helpful with recommendations and any issues we had. Look forward to hopefully returning one day!

Perfect Holiday
What an amazing stay we had at Delfini. Sarah's house is like paradise and Lis was an incredible hostess. We cannot possibly have asked for a better experience. It exceeded every possible expectation. We are a group of eight friends celebrating two 50th birthdays over a year and a half late because of covid. We were so desperate for time away with each other and in a beautiful place and this was perfect. Lis also helped us set up a masseuse to come to the house, a private chef for two dinners at the house, a day of sailing, and transport for early flights. She was easily accessible and an absolute delight. We even had an unfortunate hospital stay and she was so helpful. We left refreshed and blessed. Our only regret is that we could not have stayed much much longer! This is perfect for groups. 6 bedrooms, all en suites, and a beautiful pool overlooking the water. Some nights days/nights we stayed and others we went out and both ways were wonderful. Perfectly located close to the airport, about 30 minutes to Chania, an hour to Rethymon or Kissamos, and about two hours Elafonissi. We wanted to be close enough to things to explore but out of the dizziness and got exactly that. We had cars and everything was so convenient. There are a couple fabulous restaurants and markets and ATM about 5-10 minutes from the house. You will never forget the sunsets from the back terrace. The home is very well decorated and very well stocked. Highly recommend booking this place. Thank you so much Lis and Sarah! ❤️ Lis, we miss you already!!!

Our family stayed here over Easter 2022. The whole experience was incredible. The host Lis was fantastic and the Villa itself is just spectacular. We will certainly look to return and would not hesitate to recommend. Thank you

Wonderful stay at a beautiful villa
What a week we had at Villa Delfini!! Overall I would definitely recommend this Villa! Let me try and split it out...
- Views are spectacular. Those sunsets are unbelievable!
- Pool etc is perfect and includes helpful additions such as pool towels colour coordinated by room! There were also plenty of sun loungers for all 11 of us which made it very comfortable.
- The eating area outside was one of my favourite spots in the villa. It was lovely and we spent many lunches/dinners and hours sitting there enjoying the views (the shade) and some cold beverages!
-Kitchen was well equipped with all required items. We didn't do a lot of "real" cooking - more the odd eggs for breakfast and lots of snacky food (meat and cheese platters, pita breads, dips etc, reheating food in oven). But we found they had everything we needed.
- Rooms were great with bathrooms for each room and comfy beds. However we did have an issue with air conditioning while we were there. The technicians came out and fixed most rooms except one which was unable to be fixed until the last night of our stay. Lis was very communicative on this issue though and came out as soon as we complained.
- Speaking of Lis, she was the Property Manager and she was brilliant! She helped us with countless things - recommending car rental which was dropped at villa and picked up there, organising a grocery shop to be at villa prior to our arrival, organising a day boat trip, recommendations for a beach club, organising taxi pickups/drop offs, booking COVID tests (& transport) for return to UK, recommending a private chef to come to the villa (who was excellent)... The list goes on and on! Thanks again Lis for your awesome help.
- The location of the villa is superb in that the views are stunning and you aren't too hemmed in by other villas etc. If you want to be in the centre of the action though, this is a bit further out and is about a half an hour drive to Chania old town. There are groceries and other tavernas/little beach spots much closer though (a short drive away). This was fine for us - but is worth knowing and you will benefit from having a car while you are there.
- I guess only other niggles are that sometimes the shower had variable cold/warmth but I suspect this is more of a general issue for Crete rather than specific to this villa.
Overall, if you are thinking about it, all I can say is BOOK! My friends and I have all said we would love to return to this beautiful villa!

we enjoyed the stay very much. it was all perfect. twice a week it had been cleaned and the towels and sheets were changed. the outside area had even been cleaned almost every day. the equipment is also great. everything is very nicely decorated and very clean. the villa is a „bijou“ and the location & views are breathtaking. the villa has everything you need for an unforgettable stay! it was just a fantastic holiday thanks to villa delfini!

Wonderful holiday at Villa Delphini
We made a last-minute booking at Villa Delphini due to the UK Government advising against all travel to Spain, resulting in us abandoning our initial holiday plans.
The owner, Sarah, was so helpful in providing flexibility and assurance should the government restrict our travel to Greece, and we are incredibly grateful. It is so refreshing and positive to see an owner that is understanding to the current conditions that are affecting us all. Sarah is an example of an excellent villa owner on Home Away. Thank you again!
Villa Delphini is in a fantastic location with the most stunning sunsets (and sunrise!). The villa is immaculate and well equipped with each bedroom having its unique style. The area is tranquil, which suited us, but close enough to get to the supermarket, gyms, Chania town and local beaches. The airport is 15 minutes away.
Lis, the property manager, is absolutely lovely and always on hand to help and assist with anything you need. We also asked her to pre-stock the fridge before we arrived, which was a huge help. Lis also helped with car hire delivery to the villa, so we didn't have to queue at the airport - 5* service, thank you, Lis!
We returned well-rested and relaxed. We loved Chania and hope to return.

Fabulous villa
On arrival at Villa Delfini we were extremely impressed. The villa exceeded our expectations and all guests were delighted with the facilities it had to offer. As we were a party with keen culinary skills we were pleased to see the kitchen so well equipped. Lis was wonderful and informative, always at hand when needed. Attention to the comfort of guests was very evident with outside areas being cleaned and swept every morning. We had the most enjoyable stay at this beautiful villa.

We spent three weeks for a family reunion in July at beautiful Villa Delfini. Like many, we found the villa so beautiful that we tended to stay there. The location is very private and doesnt experience drive by traffic. We found a wonderful restaurant close-by in Stavros at Zorbas Beach and didnt have to venture far to eat out. The house is well taken care of, and Lis, the property manager is a true gem, quickly attending to any question. She is like seeing an old friend. The house is well stocked and cleaned twice weekly. The pool is absolutely gorgeous, all the children (young and old) loved it and it is large enough for quite a few to be in at the same time. The views are completely unobstructed and have beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Everyone in the family, and there were 12 of us, thought it might be the best vacation we ever had. We highly recommend a stay at Villa Delfini!

A fantastic villa with a marvelous location.
We were a company of 12 people who enjoyed this fantastic villa for a week in June. The pictures we saw before we got there were beautiful, but the reality actually exceeded our expectations. Even though we filled the house with 12 people, it never felt crowded. The kitchen was very well equipped, the pool area was great and last but not least the view with the sunset over the Mediterranean was magnificent. The local house manager was also very helpful and assisted us with shopping in connection with our late arrival, and lots of other tips and recommendations. We can really recommend a stay at Villa Delfini!!

Lovely Villa
Great kitchen and out door areas, beautiful pool. Expected a bit better "kitting out" (garbage bags, dishwasher soap, etc.) for this level of a property. Airy, bright, lots of bedrooms with ensuite baths -- though the bathrooms are quite small. There is an issue with the outside walls of the villa -- the stone is flaking away. Although someone comes to sweep it up every morning, the outside furniture and cushions get covered with it again very shortly, which is annoying.

Where to begin? Villa Delfini is perfection.
We were a group of 10 celebrating a 50th birthday. The villa is perfectly laid out to promote group activities but has enough quiet spaces to accommodate solitary moments. The house is well-equipped, and there was nothing we found missing. Lis is the perfect hostess and spends time to make sure you maximize the house and have access to quality dining and off-site activities. All of Lis’ recommendations were stellar and she’s just lovely. I really can’t say enough good things. We all cried as we packed up to leave. A week is not enough. Villa Delfini exceeds even your highest expectations! Heaven!

Will not disappoint!!!
Our experience at Villa Delfini was nothing short of amazing. The villa, pool, grounds and patio area were spectacular and very well cared for. Lis the manager was very friendly, helpful and accommodating. This was our home away from home for two weeks and we enjoyed every minute of our stay. The villa offers anything that you could possible think of. The interior is very well decorated and laid out, and has amazing views of the ocean and mountains from every angle. The villa was cleaned every 3 days during our stay, with clean towels and linens. The pictures online do not do this amazing place justice. We thoroughly enjoyed our two week stay with friends and family and have memories to last us a lifetime. Seriously a must see!! Until we meet again Villa Delfini and Chania, Crete.

Incredible!
From the moment we entered the villa, we didn't want to leave. The entire booking, checking in and checking out process was seamless. Sarah and Lis are fabulous to work with. We had 8 teens and 3 adults and we all had room to spread out, sleep and relax. The rooms are large and comfortable and each one has an incredible view. The location was perfect for us. It's a 25 min drive to Old Town Chania which is very charming. Close to the airport and many nearby beaches to choose from. Lis will give you eateries to try, places to visit and answer any questions you may have. I highly recommend Villa Delfini! Thank you Sarah and Lis for the dream vacation home!

Family celebration!
Wow! Amazing! This was our reaction on first entering the villa, together with the certainty of knowing that this, carefully chosen villa, was going to be absolutely perfect for our family get together. We were not wrong! The Villa Delfini was wonderful in every way, allowing us the space to go off into little groups or to join together for meals and 'Banagrams' tournaments! We were a mixed group aged from 11 to 60 and the villa fitted all our needs just perfectly. Beautiful pool area, huge terrace/seating areas and very clean, well appointed bedrooms and bathrooms. Plenty of crockery, glasses etc in the kitchen for mass catering and the large barbecue was fab! Sunsets and views abdolutely stunning. Lis, the manager, was a brilliant help - like having your own personal assistant although we tried not to abuse her kindness! The pool was cleaned and sheets/towels etc all changed mid-week, which we appreciated. We had to drag ourselves away from the villa to vist Tersanas beach (beautiful) and take a boat trip with Captain Nick from Chania (to be recommended). Our family came together from England and Australia to celebrate my 60th birthday and it was everything I could have wished for. The beautiful Villa Delfini was the icing on the cake.
P.S. Geraniums watered regularly, Sarah!

Fantastic villa, exceeding expectations.
The property exceed all our expectations. It is perfect for a big family. We were 14 people, three generations from 1 to 61 years and we all had a fantastic week enjoying the villa, the pool and the surroundings. The kids just loved the big pool and stayed more or less in the water from breakfast to bedtime. The local representative was very helpful and service minded and made our stay easy for us. This property was recommended to us by friends and we would love to recommend it further.

Extended family holiday
We wanted a villa that would suit 3 generations and we were not disappointed, it was everything the website said and more. It was in in very good condition and the cleaners inside and out maintained it beautifully. Nothing was too much trouble for Lis the property manager, she was delightful. It was well equipped and everyone enjoyed eating outside. I was concerned that I may end up babysitting the youngest generation but in fact I had to make their parents go out! The tavernas and beaches were stunning, I would return in a heartbeat, many thanks Martin and Sarah ( I watered the geraniums faithfully)

Stunning villa and great service!
Our stay at Villa Delphini was fantastic! The place is stunning, with a great outdoor area with a nice pool, a dinner area with view of the sunset (and the pool, so we were able to keep an eye on the kids at all times), a very well planned villa with six sleeps all with separate bath rooms. Everyting in the villa has a very high quality, from the furniture to the kitchen equipment. Lis, the villa manager, took fantastic care of us during the week and helped us with everything from new swim wear to a couple of the kids (due to late luggage), to a fantastic boat tour from Chania. The only downside was that one of the sleeps was in the basement, but still a nice room. We can definitely recommend this villa.

Top Notch
Villa Delfini was top notch for us – a mixed group of eleven friends from Sweden - the interior as well as the exterior and social areas were tasteful and fantastic, views beautiful and location perfect. And last but not least: Lis, the house manager is lovely, helpful and professional.
Most afternoons were spent by the pool and then later on the outside patio wining and dining as the sun set. The kitchen is well equipped with lots of space and we could easily cook for 11 persons.
Even tough we planned to travel around a bit - we ended up staying at the ”peninsula” most of the time as the surroundings and beaches were so nice and we felt no need to go any further.
Thank you Sarah and Martin – we had a fantastic week in your villa and we are definately looking forward to come back : )

haven on earth
Sarah and Lis are 2 women I will forever cherish in my heart.Sarah, for letting us stay in her house and Lis for making our stay comfortable fun and well informed.The house is heavenly.Beautifully perched at land's end over the sea,enviably well appointed ,there was nearly no need to leave the house at all .Our plans to hike extensively went literaly out the door.We'd venture out for fresh fish and Valencia oranges in Chania,fresh bread(great tip Lis) ,vegetables, olive oil and Feta cheese in Stavros and simply laze away on the comfy couches,sipping ice coffee while the kids marinated themselves in the pool for hours on end.
We went down to Tersanas beach and Calathas bay , enjoyed the clear water and the clean sand and had huge ice cream cones to seal the deal.We strolled around Chania's historic streets and ventured out to Milia (the ecologic village-not to be missed) and Vamos.
We rested well ate well and in short - had a dream vacation.We're definitely looking forward to repeating this experience sometime in the future.

Sheer bliss!
Villa Delfini is a delight - the interior and exterior decor is incredibly tasteful. Everything has been finished to a high standard and maintained very well, so you can enjoy the sun with no worries. It's the home you wish you had! Views from the terrace and pool across the sea (particularly during sunset/sunrise) are beautiful. The neighbouring villas are a good distance away and do nothing to hamper this. In short - exquisite.
Stavros itself is also a great location, with the beach nearby and lots of delicious restaurants only a short bike/drive away. There is also a homemade guidebook in the living room full of pictures and suggestions which is the only research you need! It was the icing on the cake. I really feel as though we made the most of being in this fantastic villa in an idyllic location. Can not come highly recommended enough. Thank you for a superb week and I hope I have the opportunity to come back again.

A dream villa in a beautiful location
Villa Delfini is a beautiful villa with everything you need for a wonderful holiday. The villa itself has been recently furnished so everything is fresh and modern. The beds are comfortable, the showers are powerful, the kitchen is well stocked with modern appliances and the fridges (both inside and outside) are big enough for lots of food and lots of drink! The swimming pool and outside area are stunning and the pool is very clean. The outside eating area makes the evenings of your holiday even more special. We were staying as a group of friends, and our holiday in Crete and stay in Villa Delfini was wonderful. The beach is just down the road and the area is home to some fantastic restaurants (try Maliki's and the Windmill). It's also only a short taxi away from Chania airport, so it's very accessible. Definitely would recommend this villa!

The Perfect Crete Experience
We were a mixed, young group who stayed here for a week last summer and absolutely loved it. The surrounding area is perfect for relaxing on beaches, eating a lazy lunches in tavernas and spending afternoons touring local vineyards. The villa was very clean and the outdoor dining area ideal for watching the long sunsets over the crystal clear sea. I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Beautiful villa in a quiet location with sea views
Villa Delphini is a modern villa which is fully equipped with everything you need when you are self catering. It is clean, light and airy with plenty of outside space for relaxing and eating. There is a BBQ conveniently placed near the large table outside where 11 of us could sit with plenty of room. The pool is a good size for swimming or games and the sea views are wonderful. There are several small beaches within walking distance of the villa, each with a Taverna. The manager Lis is very welcoming and will do all she can to ensure that you have a great holiday.

Beautiful views and a very relaxing holiday .
We were a group of 4 adults and 6 children aged between 7 and 14. We spent half term at Villa Delfini and we all loved it. The open plan living room/kitchen was welcoming and well thought out. The outside was spectacular with a lovely view of the sea. Loved the private balconies outside some of the bedrooms. It was relaxing just sitting there in the mornings with a cup of tea appreciating the view.
The children were entertained by the table football and the table tennis. We also played tennis in the hotel located a few minutes away by foot.
Liz the villa manager was full of enthusiasm and a great source of local information and recommended some great restaurants for us to eat at. She was extremely helpful.
Chania was only a short drive away and had lovely restaurants and shops.
There were quite a few lovely beaches located just a few minutes away in the car, the sea water was crystal clear.
We all really enjoyed the holiday and would love to return to the villa one day.
