Relaxation by the Lake of Kournas, at Bluefairy Dafni Villa

At a time when the world is experiencing a global pandemic - a holiday could not have been more important for us to recharge our batteries and we were able to do just that at the villa. The backdrop of the lake was enchanting and calming in equal measures. There’s plenty to do on the lake and we very much enjoyed our early morning canoes with us being the only ones on there. Turtle spotting was a ... more

“splendid located villa if you like being outside the tourist centra but still close enough to them for shopping and food. the house has everything what you can expect for this price. good location to make some trips to the south of the island which still is the nicest part of Crete. ”

We received a very warm welcome to the villa which is beautifully situated looking over the lake. The villa was lovely, everything was clean and fresh. We received a large bowl of fruit, an enormous piece of cheese and some raki!. We were made most welcome and even got some little cakes made by he owner's mother. We would recommend the villa and would definitely like to visit again. Thank y... more

Super gelegene Villa. Wenn man es etwas ruhiger haben will. Toller Blick von der Terasse. Jedes Haus hat einen gesonderten Pool. Genügend Privatsphäre. Sehr sauber und sehr nette Gastgeberin. Mano tritt als Vermittler auf. Sehr netter E Mail Austausch. Das Haus wurde während unseres zweiwöchigen Aufenthalts 3 mal gereinigt. Sehr angenehm. Küche war gut ausgestattet. Sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet... more

Komplette Ausstattung, die keine Wünsche offen läßt. Für 4 Personen ist das Haus vollkommen ausreichend, wo jedoch die beiden anderen schlafen sollen, die bei einer 6-Personenbelegung mitreisen?! (ein Doppel- und zwei Einzelbetten). Viele Geräte (z.B. Waschmaschine, Bügeleisen, usw.) haben wir nicht benutzt und können daher auch nicht sagen, ob sie funktionieren würden. Der eigene Pool war sehr ... more

We absolutely loved it here, the villa is beautiful and very well equipped. The owners are so friendly and greeted us on arrival and during our stay we had homemade cakes, biscuits, local olive oil and even Raki! For us we wanted a relaxing break away from the hustle and bustle and this was definitely it, there are a handful of good local tavernas but all very low key. The lake is lovely for swi... more

Very nicely appointed villa with own pool and great views over lake. Owners very helpful while we were there. Sunny aspect all day.

An excellent place you should absolutely try!!!! We had a wonderful time in the Dafne villa. The villa's owners and their daughter were very wormeful and welcoming and she speaks very well English. At our arrival, the family was waiting for us to welcome us and explain everything about the villa, which was very beautiful, clean and new and had all the comfort to feel at home. The landscape from th... more

We had a warm welcome into Villa Dafne by Eleftheria and her parents and an added bonus of a bottle of Raki and home made biscuits. The villa was spotlessly clean and well equipped for a very comfortable stay. The view of the lake was just amazing and it was just a short car ride away to the local sandy beach. There are many restaurants within walking distance and the food was very good. We would ... more

We stayed at Villa Dafne for two weeks and enjoyed every minute. The owners, Eleftheria and her parents, could not have been more welcoming and attentive and made us feel that we were valued as guests, not just another paying customer. The villa was spotlessly clean and had every amenity that we needed. Little touches such as fruit and home made biscuits on arrival and home made cake - delicious -... more

My wife and I rented this villa for a week towards the end of May and it was one of the best vacation rentals that I have ever stayed in. The villas themselves (there are two) are spacious, well equipped (including wifi and private pools, one for each villa), immaculately clean and very-well maintained. However, the best part is the fantastic view over the lake, the hills to the south and the sea ... more
