We had the most fantastic family holiday here we were 5 adults and stayed 3 weeks here . We did not want to leave and is by far the best villa we have ever rented . The pool area and whole outside area was delightful and extremely spacious . Everything is bigger than the photos . All bedrooms are lovely with sea views and very comfortable . Kitchen is very well equipped and straight out onto outdoor area . Rose who looks after the house was amazing and a wealth of information Nothing is too much trouble if you need anything .she strives to make your stay comfortable Luke who looks after the pool is very friendly and really cares about your experience at the pool which is so well maintained Nathalie the owner is lovely and always on hand . We had a rental car but rarely used it as the tavernas and beach were so close walking about 15 minutes to the square and about 8 minutes to the beach The view from the infinity pool is outstanding and from the whole house . It is breathtaking Bathrooms are all modern and the outside shower was wonderful . We all took our evening showers outside as it was an amazing experience We will really miss this place and will definately return in the future

We had a fabulous two weeks staying at Villa Dore, the views are just amazing and you can never get bored of looking at them. The town of Elounda has most things you would need during your stay and lots of lovely restaurants. The pool and outside space was fantastic being a family consisting of us and 2 adult daughters and their boyfriends it meant we all had lots of space not to be on top of each other. We all agreed even after 2 wks we could have easily stayed longer. Thank you so much for letting us stay in your lovely villa. Paul & Ally x

Location and view from Villa Dore were great and we had a super stay, despite sweltering heat. I think it worth mentioning in notes sent prior to arrival that the roads up are very very steep and our hire car couldnt make it on the recommended route to villa. Luckily we found different route in and Rose then told us another easier route in and out of Elounda. We are a fit family, but contrary to other reviews ,it was a much longer walk into town than 20 minutes and we had to drive. Also, the photos are fairly deceptive - it felt alot more compact inside with the only living space being the kitchen which was alot smaller than the photos and we only had the annexe of the house, though the owner is never present when the villa is let. The kitchen was not that well supplied and 2 rings with no oven just a microwave meant cooking was not ideal for a family of 4. Also, other villas usually leave at least salt, bit of cooking oil, foil , dishclothes etc but the cupboards were bare. We had a really relaxing stay and the pool, terrace and view were wonderful.

The house is very clean and nice. It has great views.The exterior of the house was the highlight with the infinity pool, pool chairs, dining table and outdoor shower bathroom.Even though the house is on the mountain, the location is good for easy access to supermarket, restaurants and beach. Would definitely recommend this house. We loved our stay.

This house was exactly what we needed after days of travel. Very relaxing, and the views were amazing. Would love to come back again!

What an amazing place to stay and have your family reunion at. The entire family (combo US and CZ) felt like we hit a Jackpot in Crete. So relaxing, quiet, clean and beautiful place with gorgeous views. Definitely would come back or recommend to anyone who enjoys privacy and relaxation.

The property was exemplary! Almost didn't want to venture out because the villa was so nice to be at! My family were so delighted with the view of the harbour from the poolside!

The location is excellent and in comfortable walking distance of Elounda with all of its restaurants and shops. The view from the villa is stunning and the outdoor facilities of the villa are good. The pool is very nice and relatively deep. It was also very well maintained. The inside of the villa was a bit of a disappointment as the living area is inadequate for 6 adults and the bathroom arrangements should have been better described. However, as the weather was so good, much of the time was spent outside but I would not recommend this villa for the shoulders of the season.
