Freelance's "Holidays In Crete" Selection

Villa Kallisto, Almerida, Crete 
Featured in The Sunday Times ***"The 40 hottest villas in Europe"***   

With its brazen clean lines and uncluttered grey facades making a bold statement of modern architecture Villa Kallisto nevertheless sits surprisingly at ease amongst the olive trees. Far removed from ancient Cretan dwellings, Nectarios and Penny (who also own Villa Nynemia) commissioned their new architect designed  Villa to showcase the style and taste of a new age and guests staying here will be lucky enough to discover the ideas behind the design.

On arrival you will immediately begin to appreciate the concept of the villa as, with all three bedrooms on the ground floor, it requires minimal effort to unload your luggage and hang holiday clothes in the spacious wardrobes. Sliding glass doors open from each 'boutique hotel' inspired bedroom onto a patio by the pool area perfect for that first dip. All three spacious bedrooms (two double and one twin) have sleek spa inspired en-suite shower rooms equipped with hydro massage showers.

Stairs, both internal and external, lead to the upper floor where the living space profits from its position at the top of the villa for maximum impact of breathtaking panoramic views over Souda Bay and the commanding Crete White Mountains. Moving around, sitting or standing, each intriguingly placed window frames a different snapshot of the magnificent views. This is a light and uncluttered sociable space to enjoy whether cooking; dining or just 'chilling out'. Equipped with flat screen satellite TV, DVD Player and music system and furnished with hand crafted bespoke furniture -  suede corner sofa, wood and glass dining table and leather covered dining chairs - the living area simply exudes style. Clean modern lines in the kitchen offer all that you might expect from a Villa of this calibre - large fridge freezer, electric fan oven, ceramic hob, dishwasher and capuccino- espresso machine. Three double sliding French windows open onto a wide dual aspect terrace furnished for open air dining and overlooking the 5000sq m of olive groves in which Villa Kallisto is set and the exemplary 11.5m x 5m mineral spa water pool. Holidays In Crete

One link  has forged  Villa Kallisto with the past - translated from ancient Greek, Kallisto means Most Beautiful and each visitor will return home with their own opinion of whether this Villa was named for its architecture, furnishings or views.

There is a purpose built barbecue and outside dining furniture near to the swimming pool which has roman steps leading into it and an overall depth of 1.50m
All the villas windows are fitted with mosquito screens and electric roll down shutters and there is a washing machine in one of the shower rooms.

**As an extra service at Villa Kallisto, for those clients who would prefer to enjoy their beautiful surroundings in the evenings without cooking, Penny has thoughtfully made take away delivery arrangements with one of the tavernas in Almirida, who will deliver your meal in serving dishes to Villa Kallisto (not tin foil dishes) and actually lay the table for you. Crockery etc can be returned the following day,**

Location of Villa Kallisto
Almerida , Crete

22 km east of Chania, Almerida, this pretty little seaside village has two gently shelving sandy beaches fringed by sleepy waterside tavernas as well as a small fishing harbour and little rocky coves, with the sea a marvellous melange of colours from deep aquamarine to a pastel turquoise. ...More about Almerida >>

Sarah Troup - Aug 2011
Perfect holiday and didn't want to come home
"We have just spent 2 weeks at the Villa Kallisto and we didn't want to come home. The villa is gorgeous, the pool is fantastic, the location is great, the views and sunsets are amazing, Pennie the owner is the best we've come across and the weather was wonderful. The villa is a 25 minute leisurely walk downhill to Almerida (you can get back in 25 minutes but it's uphill and definately requires more effort!) There are quite a few tavernas (all on the beach giving you a perfect view of the bay whilst getting your toes sandy if you wish), a couple of bakers, 4 mini supermarkets, lovely sandy beach, ATM and generally everything you need. It is not a place to go if you're looking for a wild nightlife but it is perfect for families and chilling in the most blissful way. "

John F - Sep 2010
Superb accommodation
"Ideal for a family or couples looking for complete privacy in superb accommodation. The views from the veranda of the White Mountains and coast were stunning."

Deidre - Aug 2010

The Montagus - Jul 2010
Too easy to relax by the pool
"We have just made it back home after a lovely week and thought we ought to express our thanks once again for all your assistance with the fuel situation. This was the first visit to Crete for 18 years and we wanted to try and show our children some of the places they had heard us talk about so much over the years. Unfortunately the fuel situation curtailed some of our plans but we did manage to make a memorable trip to the South coast having managed to fill up the car. However it must also be said that having the use of Villa Kallisto made a huge difference and it was all too easy just to relax by the pool and blame the fuel shortages! The views over Souda Bay were very familiar. We were very pleased with the service you gave us and also the care and attention from Pennie at the house. We all agree that when we come back again we will contact yourselves first. "

Andrew Munro - Aug 2009
"We found the mineral water pool to be very good and more could be made of this as an alternative to chlorine. Penny was marvellous! Keep up the good work!"

Catherine Ching - Jul 2009
Wonderful Villa
"We had a wonderful week at Villa Kallisto and Penny and her family made us all very welcome. We would certainly consider using Freelance Holidays for future holidays."

Karen Hunt - Jul 2008
"What a wonderful holiday we had at Villa Kallisto! It was brilliant and would recommend it to anyone. We also had first class service from Diane and Ann in Crete. Both very helpful and professional. We had a bit of an issue with the car which they soon sorted. Very happy and will travel with you again soon . Thank you."

The Levitts - Jun 2008
Service is unrivaled
"This is the third time we have holidayed with Freelance and I am hoping not our last, your quality of service is unrivaled. Special mention needs to be made about Penny (owner of Villa Nynemia and Villa Kallisto) who every year makes our stay just that bit more special, she is kind, considerate and nothing is too much trouble."
