Fabulous villa in great location
We had a wonderful time at Michael's villa Balos/Amfimala. The house is excellently located just outside Georgioupolis, where there is a beautiful sandy and safe beach, small harbour, village square and numerous shops, tavernas and bars. If you travel a little further afield you can visit the Venetian cities of Chania and Rethymnon easily by car or by the reliable and cheap bus service, as well as some lovely small traditional villages in the mountains. Michael is a great and attentive host. We were welcomed to the villa and he kindly provided a hot meal with Greek salad, a thoughtful touch for our first meal. He visited daily to empty bins and service the pool so we were able to ask him for his advice on the best places to eat. When we had a small issue, he was there immediately on phoning and it was swiftly sorted out. The villa has everything you need for a relaxing stay. The pool was excellent and spotlessly clean. The views are lovely and the walk to the town is easy for adults and older children; we hired a car which was useful for younger ones. Highly recommended 😊

Excellent villa, well situated, with a lovely villa owner
This villa ticks all the boxes, well situated overlooking the local town is clean, well maitained and the best equipped we have been to. For example, dishwasher tablets, washing up powder etc...even a tap producing filtered water meaning we dont have to buy and carry litres of water. The pool was always clean, the air con works and the tv has loads of options. The villa owner Michael could not have been more helpful, we arrived with a hot meal left for us, and a fridge with all sorts such as salad and beer. It really is a 10min walk to the town maybe 12-15mins to the beach, the sea is warm, restaurants were good and people were nice. You can easily get by without a car although we rented locally from Mikes who where well priced and drove the car to and from our villa. If we visit Crete again we would defintely want to come back to this villa.

Great Property, Great Location, Great Hosts
Lovely comfortable house with great Cretan location; day trips to Chania, Rethymnon, and Irakleion as well as archaeological sites Aptera, Knossos, Elevtherna easily accessible from this property; fantastic beaches just a few km away; and garden pool a great place to cool off when the day is done. Thank you, Mihalis!

May 2022 Trip to Crete
My family and I have been renting VRBOs for many years. This house is at the absolute top of our list. The house was spacious and immaculate. The panoramic views from the roof are amazing. The town (Georgioupoli) has a great beach, and great shops and restaurants. The pool was awesome, even at the end of May. Swimming in the morning was my granddaughters favorite part of our entire trip to Greece. Finally, Mihalis and his wife were one of the most thoughtful, and friendliest hosts we have ever rented from. They even prepared a fresh Greek salad and a warm casserole for our arrival. When we come back to Crete, we will definitely stay here again if available. Thank you Mihalis for making our stay in Crete so memorable.

Superb villa, outstanding host!
We had an amazing last minute break at this villa. I cannot express how great Michael was throughout, nothing was too much trouble. We had a late flight and he had a hot meal and drinks waiting for us, with some breakfast in the fridge too! Communication was no problem, he is very responsive. The villa is amazing, views were for. It's spacious, spotless and relaxing. The villa is a 10 min walk to plenty of bars and restaurants, shops and supermarkets. It is up a slight hill, but you do not need to be super fit! Would totally recommend the villa and Michael as a host!

A little piece of heaven
Four of us, all senior citizens, stayed for a week at Villa Balos. It was absolutely fabulous. The amenities, with space to enjoy being together and also plenty of places to be comfortably alone to rest, were top notch; Mihalis and his wife were superb hosts; and the view of the sea was spectacular. We were tempted to move in permanently. We can't imagine a more perfect place.

Beautiful villa
We have just returned from a holiday at the beautiful villa Balos ! We were a party ranging from 15 - 70 and the Villa suited everyone. It has everything you need , private and the views over the village are amazing. The village is a 10 minute walk with plenty of Tavernas and if you want to get a taxi back there are plenty and the cost 5 euro. We hired bikes from the village which were great for cycling to get fresh bread on a morning. Michalis was the perfect host and answered any questions we had. The meal on arrival was delicious and much appreciated !! He helped with transfers and organise a boat trip which was great. Would fully recommend the Villa !!! Great holiday .

Perfect location
We stopped here the last week in August and found it to be the perfect home from home. We found the villa spacious and very well equipped. It was a ten minute walk to the centre of Town where there is plenty of places to eat. Michalis, the villa owner was the perfect host and made us feel very welcome and popped up daily to sort the rubbish out and check the pool. Nothing was too much trouble, he even helped us by organising our transfers to and from the villa. We will be returning at the earliest opportunity. Thank you to Michalis and his family. We shall definitely see you again!!!

Wonderful Villa and People
We have just returned from 10 days wonderful holiday at Villa Balos. On arrival we were met by Mihalis, his wife Irene and his son - a nice touch to meet the family. We were made most welcome then and throughout our stay. One of the family would visit every couple of days to make sure everything was OK, and also responded quickly to email to answer any questions we had. We were pleasantly surprised to find a meal had been prepared and left for us - Greek salad, bread, bottle of wine and a huge dish of pastitsio cooked by Irene. The pastitsio was so good we said we would be happy to pay for another, which duly appeared together with a lemon sweet, but they would not accept any payment. If you are lucky to treated like this you will find Irene is a great cook. Having visited Crete several times and toured most of the island, we did not have a hire car trip. When Mihalis realised this, he offered several times to drive us to get shopping. They really could not have done more to make our stay a pleasant one. The villa itself was spacious, well furnished and well appointed - definitely a lovely home not just a holiday let. From it's elevated position it had fabulous, panaromic views across Georgiopoli to the bay, and to side and rear across open countryside to hills and mountains. It was a 15-20 minute walk to the central square in the village or the beach, with some short uphill sections as you near the villa, more than made up for by the resultant views. You only need to be reasonably fit to cope with these - as a reference our group ages ranged from 16 to 68 and no-one had any problems. Many thanks to Mihalis and his family, if we visit Georgiopoli again, and we may do given the beach, village and tavernas on offer, we would not hesitate to stay again at Villa Balos.
