recommends this villa Mrs Murrell, Leamington Spa, July 2010
"The villa was very clean, well maintained, well equipped and in a lovely location, with fantastic views. It was just as good as it looked in the photos - if not better. "
recommends this villa Mr Van Rooyen, London, October 2009
"Really the only problem with our villa was a dog tied up nearby that barked all night long and kept us awake. We think that the owner had something to do with the adjacent villa (possibly another James' villa) so maybe a quick word would solve the problem...
Apart from that the place really was brilliant with everything of the highest possible standard. We will be back! "
recommends this villa Ms Singer, Aberdare, September 2009
"This is the second time we have stayed at Minos - we think it is a wonderful villa in a great location. We were slightly apprehensive about returning this year - would it be well maintained etc - but were not disappointed - it lived up to our expectations. "
Mrs Pennycook, Helensburgh, September 2009
"We, myself, partner and 73 year old mother, stayed at the Villa Minos in Plaka Crete for 2 weeks in Sept 09. As with previous James Villa holidays we have taken,this location and villa were just out of this world. The villa was in 3 stories with a granny flat (which we called it) contained on the ground floor which my mother just loved, this had a walk in shower, kitchen, dining area, tv, dvd, soft seating area, bed with pink mosquito net which she adored. Sliding doors took you to the pool. This is a great extra contained living area. This villa had everything to make us feel at home. It was as usual very clean, the owners paid us a visit and made us feel very,very welcome. The James villa rep also paid us his visit and was a mine of local information. The view from the villa overlooking the Bay of Souda was amazing at sunset. The walk of 5 mins to the village of Plaka is a joy of meandering through between the old Greek houses, the village itself has great places to eat and the locals are so welcoming. I would recommend this villa for a quiet holiday as there are few villas around, although the village of Almirida is 5 mins by car if that, down the hill and is a bit busier. The living area on the ground floor is a great idea. We would most certainly stay there again without hesitation. "
Miss Howieson, Leeds, August 2009
"100% top class holiday!! perfect. "
Mrs Phoenix, Maidenhead, June 2008
"It was wonderful! "
Mrs Jones, Annan, April 2008
"Only to say we had a wonderful relaxing holiday and the villa was superb. "
Ms Dawson, Shipston-on-Stour, September 2007
"The sign for the Villa was difficult to read as it was tucked away and written in purple. We had a fantastic relaxing holiday/honeymoon and would use James Villas again. "
Mr Hamon, St. Helens, July 2007
"villa minos excellent, owners genuenly want you to enjoy your holiday always asking how they can improve the villa, truth is its already perfect. "
