Villas in Crete: Head for the mountains.

We are very proud of our mountains. Crete has two famous mountains and a very famous Gorge well known worldwide. The first mountain is Lefka Ori- Or the so called- White Mountains and the second one is Mount Ida (Psiloritis) which-according to Greek mythology was the birthplace of Zeus. The first mountain has an altitude of 2454m and the latter an altitude of 2456m. It is pretty uncommon to have such similar and extremely tall mountains in Crete on an island, that’s why many vacationers choose to rent villas in Crete close to those mountains. If you are one of them, we can certainly help you to find your perfect mountain Villa or mountain retreat for your vacation in Greece.

Villas in Crete: Mountain Villas in Chania.

Chania is a place where you see a lot of mountains. The White mountains extend to nearly 50km from east to west and divide Chania region into the north and the south part. Climate is extremely different from those regions and people searching for villas in Crete love to live not only on beachfront villas but on mountains of Crete as well. There are many villages that offer villas with nice mountain views and mountain access to the vacationers.

Nice options for mountain villages that you can discover are the Villages of Theriso, Meskla and Zourva, not very far away from Chania centre. People wanting to have a villa in Crete close to the mountain ranges tend to love those villages as they are on the foothills of the White mountains and provide an easy and fast access to hiking paths, and small journeys in the mountain environment of Crete.

Villas with mountain views in Crete.

There are many vacationers that want to combine proximity to the sea with impeccable and breathtaking views of the White Mountains mountain range we have already talked about. Hopefully, villas in Crete can easily manage that as many of them are built in prominent areas combining sea and mountain views.

We have found out that the villas in Crete that we successfully manage and combine both views are mainly in Apokoronas area . Apokoronas is a region in Chania area that is close to the beach, offers sea views and by looking south you get to experience a clear and concise view of the white mountains. You can see many Villas for rent in Crete in the areas of Kalyves, Almyrida, Kokkino Chorio, Drepano, Kefalas, Georgioupoli, Vrysses, Ramni where the mountain element is very strong and will leave you extremely satisfied.

Omalos: Ideal for mountain villas in Crete.

Omalos is a well known plateau at an altitude of 1100 right in the heart of the White Mountains. This plateau is full of mountains that circle the whole area and is full of (being a plateau) in cultivated lands and an artificial lake for the shepherds having their cattle there. Although a snowy place in the winter, during autumn and spring or summer months it is an excellent place to find mountain villas in Crete as the environment is 100 % mountainous and is gear for people that crave a mountain vacation in Greece. It is also very close to the Samaria Gorge and many other Cretan hiking paths of extreme beauty.

Villas in Crete: What to be careful for in the mountains.

Although breathtaking, mountains require extreme attention from travelers especially inexperienced. Especially during the winter months you have to be careful because sometimes extreme snowfalls can make transportation-or even orientation- quite difficult. If you are travelling by car, note that many cars are not capable of driving in harsh or snowy conditions and you need to reconsider some roads when the weather is snowy or rainy.

Summer also needs caution when vacationing on mountain villas all over Crete. You need to always stay hydrated and don’t overestimate your powers because there are days with extreme heatwave when hiking, wandering in mountains and other physical activities must not happen. Remember that on higher altitude the temperature may be lower in comparison to zero altitude, but the reverberations of this hot summer climate are the same towards your body. We strongly recommend consulting a reputable weather forecast service for more detailed information about the upcoming weather and plan accordingly.

Rent a villa in Crete: When?

Typically, most people decide to rent a villa in Crete during summer months. This is due to the fact that vacations in Greece have always connected with summer vacation in people’s minds.

The weather is perfect, and plane routes are more common. Also, many of the villas in Crete don’t operate in winter, either because they are in a remote area that has snow or fog or that villas don’t have the necessary requirements for a comfortable stay during the winter (e.x. lack of heating, fireplace etc). If you decide to rent a villa in Crete in the winter, we can certainly help finding you an ideal rental villa in Crete during the wintertime as well.

Rent a villa in Crete: Summer Overview.

Greek summer is generally pretty vast. As a country, Greece has unobstructed sunshine for more than 250 days a year. Especially for villas in Crete, sunshine is present for about 300 days a year that can guarantee you a pleasant summer vacation.

Greek summer season generally starts in April, where spring makes the scenery very beautiful with flower blossoms and essences elevating your vacation experience. Temperatures are mild and never exceed 30 degrees Celsius.

May is also a mild summer month for Greek Summer where you can enjoy your vacation with mild sunshine, lack of heatwaves and also lack of rainfalls that can ruin your vacation days. Also, tourist traffic is moderate which means that you will avoid traffic and beach congestions that can ruin your experience.

June and July are the months that Greek summer is at its peak. Much tourist traffic and hot summer days are the elements that define those two months. Villas in Crete are normally on high demand during June and July and this is pretty normal as hot summer weather is a perfect vacation time for Europeans. Temperatures range from 30-40 degrees celsius and is advised not to wander around between 13:00 and 18:00 due to the hot Greek scorching sun.

August: A villas in Crete pinnacle!

Pafos -Ike has a year long experience in villas management and villa rentals in Crete: We have seen an enormous demand for villas in Crete during August. Tourist traffic is skyrocketing during August as weather is similar to June- July, we have no rainfalls whatsoever, and the weather is perfect for relaxing and enjoying Greece.

August is also a very hot vacation month for Greeks as well. Most of the people in Athens (capital of Greece) tend to have their annual paid leave during these months and obviously the demand for villas, hotels and vacation rentals in Crete is quite high.

This is why also the prices of vacation rentals in Crete tend to be the highest during this month. August is also a holy month for Greeks because we, as Greeks, tend to link our vacation time with a significant religious ritual that happens on 15 August which is the birth of Virgin Mary. Many fests are being done during this period in villages of mainland Greece and is also a folklore event that you have to attend if you are in the country.

September- October: Still Greek summer.

September and October are also very common months for vacations during Greek Summer. Weather is still hot (but mild) and there are rare rainfalls making it ideal for vacation or enjoying the countryside. In some areas of Greece (such as Crete) you can still enjoy Greek summer in November as well. However you may need to watch the weather forecasts

in order to organize your vacation days better, as sometimes you may get to see some rainfalls from the wintertime that is slowly approaching.

Villa in Chania: Luxury vacations for you.

Villas in Chania are a well established option for vacationers when coming to the island. You can browse our exceptional villas in chania which are for rent and see for yourself the immense luxury and comfort they can provide you. We fairly believe that luxury and comfort has to also co-exist into the other elements of your vacation, thus we recommend that you should arrange an airport transfer prior to your arrival on our lovely and hospitable island.

Airport transfer: A villa in Chania must.

Airport transfer is by far the most efficient way to reach your villa in chania from the airport. In case you don’t know, the airport is situated in Akrotiri area, which engulfs the gulf and port of Souda. Usually you will be renting a villa in Chania in a place some kilometers away– which can take up to an hour of driving.

Also airplane routes sometimes are in uncommon hours which means that by the time you reach Chania, chances are that maybe shops, restaurants and general infrastructure (such as taxis) will not be 100 % there to accomodate you. This is why we recommend thinking beforehand and when renting a villa in chania you can combine an airport transfer at the same time.

Avoid stress when coming to a villa in Chania.

Arranged airport transfer is a wonderful way to start your relaxing vacation in a villa in Chania. You know beforehand that someone is going to be waiting for you when you arrive and that everything is well cared for. By doing this you will be rest assured that you will be avoiding stress and fuss and really get to focus on what really matters when on vacation. This is also key when you are arriving from a distant destination and you may feel dizzy and tired. A professional transfer then is ideal for you and will save you the headache of finally reaching your villa in Chania.

Know what you pay.

An already organized airport transfer will also get you the best value as you will be 100 % certain that you know what you will be paying beforehand. This is very important as you will have plenty of time to arrange everything else like which villa in Chania you will be staying in. As soon as the airport transfer is arranged you can focus on the important things that comprise your vacation in Chania.

Avoid Illegal Transfers.

We have been in the villas management business in Chania for many years and we do it in a very professional manner. Because of this we have found out that there are many companies and individuals that offering illegal transfers from and to the airport. Their prices may be a little lower, but we strongly insist that you book a transfer from a reputable taxi or transfer company. At the end of the day, you will get the perfect service you deserve, you will know that you endorse a viable business and if something, for whichever reason goes wrong, you will indeed have someone to complain to or ask for a refund if you are not satisfied.

Staying in a villa in chania: Educate yourself.

We, at Pafos -Ike property management company in chania we believe that you need to be educated at all times. By this way, you will be ready for your vacation and you may avoid paying extra unwanted charges or negotiate prices better. Especially in the airport transfer sector there are many parameters that can change your fares, and we recommend that you take a look on the normal taxi services for Greece in order to be prepared.

We wish you a pleasant vacation !
