Stunning villa in Almyrida
This is a beautiful villa with stunning views out to sea. The communication with Maja the owner was fantastic and we really appreciated her support when we had to reschedule our holiday for medical reasons and because of Covid. She is quick to respond and always gives very helpful information. Roula met us on arrival and was very helpful, always responding to messages very promptly. The gym was one of the reasons we chose this property and it was really well equipped, we made good use of it. The pool was equally amazing. All bedrooms were gorgeous. We would definitely recommend this villa and would love to visit again sometime. Thank you!

Stunning Villa
We had a fabulous time at Villa Karga. The property is beautiful with huge windows and spectacular sea views. Almyrida is lovely and all the shops and restaurants are a short walk from the villa (the return walk is steeply uphill though so anyone with mobility difficulties might struggle) We didn't mind though as it gave us a chance to work off some of the delicious food we ate down in the village! The owner was so helpful in the run up to our stay, booking airport transfers and suggesting lots of great excursions. I cannot recommend this villa highly enough - 10/10!

Fabulous villa six star fully equiped beautifully furnished in a an idylic location
What a wonderful relaxing holiday in a superb villa with all mod cons, the villa is serviced twice a week by unobtrusive staff with fresh linen and towels, the villa sits on top of a hill with superb views over the bay. A short walk 5 minute to the village where there are shops, a deli a good choice of restaurants and bars modestly priced. We ate out every night and all the meals were good with a relaxed service, the first holiday I have had where I would go back again.

Villa Karga is the most beautiful villa with outstanding views. Would recommend to anyone.
As a family of 6 we stayed in Villa Karga for 2 weeks at the beginning of August 2017. Our friends stayed in Villa Nova for our first week and this worked perfectly with the interconnecting gate. On arrival we were greeted by Natasa who was so friendly and gave us a thorough tour of the beautiful villa and had also bought us the grocery items we had requested. It was so nice to know Natasa was nearby and she was incredibly kind and helpful when we needed to see a doctor with one of the children, we couldn't have asked for better service. The villa was equipped with everything we needed, was immaculate, very tastefully decorated and had the most beautiful views, it exceeded our expectations. Also on our request a table had been booked at the beautiful Elia and Thyme restaurant for our first evening. Along with the other restaurants, supermarkets and beach this was a short walk from the villa and became one of our favourite places to eat and on a couple of occasions we also had a takeaway delivered from there. Almyrida is the perfect location for a relaxing family holiday, with a lovely selection of restaurants and beautiful beach and both Villa Karga and Villa Nova are the most beautiful villas that made our stay perfect.

Hi there!
We live in Kolbotn and work in Oslo, the capital of Norway.
In the recent years, we have spent most of our vacations in Crete, which has become our second home. In 2006, when we for the first time visited Crete and Almyrida, we totally fell in love with this beautiful village and the surrounding areas with the White Mountains (Lefka Ori), the small island Karga right outside the sandy beaches in Almyrida and the hospitality of the citizens. We decided to buy our own property in this beautiful area. After 10 fantastic years in Crete, we decided to build a new house inside the village of Almyrida. We were lucky to find a nice plot just a few steps from the sandy beach and the center of the village. Now (in 2016) we are ready to share these two fantastic villas, Villa Karga and Villa Nova, with their distinctive architecture and design with you.
We are sure you will enjoy your holiday at this wonderful place!
