Beach: 1.5km

A holiday villa rental designed to truly live in. A home in which to dream and travel without leaving. A space that was specially constructed to allow you to relax, surrender yourself, create. In the olive grove-laden slopes of Western Crete, with its gaze set on the Mediterranean, so close yet the perfect distance from the city of Chania just 20 minutes away, and with the vast blue sea at its feet, sits the Villa Filira Chania. The luxury villa rental sits dominantly upon a hill, elegant, spacious, striking, and exudes the love, artistic tastes, and care of its owners, who were inspired to construct it as a holiday home for guests with discriminating tastes and high aesthetics. Its large windows and doors allow the warm Greek sun to bathe the home in its light, carrying reflections of nature’s greens and blues to the interior, which in turn blend seamlessly with the earth tones that abound inside.

The exterior space that surrounds this Cretan vacation rental villa is defined by the gardens: elaborate, carefully tended to, and in keeping with the land that is its host, the Mediterranean in style. The heated swimming pool and its crystal clear, turquoise waters, is large and impressive. And the landscape, magical in its natural beauty, is ideal for total relaxation and well-being. In its interior, every element has been carefully chosen with a commitment to satisfying the senses everything down to the tiniest detail exudes an air of luxury, professionalism, and hospitality so that the Villa Filira impresses even the most well-traveled and discerning of guests.

Built on 3 levels, Villa Filira Chania unfolds before you from its central entry in a spacious airy manner, with its unobstructed views, high ceilings, and exposed wood beams. Carefully chosen furnishings with ethnic undertones, earthy hues in the soothing color scheme, personalized touches that include small decorative objects, and select lighting fixtures that create a warm atmosphere are just some of the elements of this luxury holiday villa boasts that suit a variety of needs and desires. Walls crafted of stone or that are elaborately hand-worked, baths and a kitchen where no expense was spared in the selection of materials and details, all create a unique private accommodation backdrop whose unwavering concern for the welfare of its guests is paramount.

On the ground floor, an open-plan, airy entry hall leads into a spacious living room with its welcoming fireplace and oak wood floors. Its natural extension is the dining area with its wooden family-size dining room table that beckons visitors to revel in Greek feasts: culinary taste treats that become memories for a lifetime. Further on, the kitchen: an oasis for those who understand the importance of surroundings in the creation of a hearty, delectable meal. Equipped in a contemporary fashion with a vintage flair, the kitchen is at the ready to correspond to any gastronomical inspiration requested of it, using ingredients sourced from the property’s organic vegetable garden and plentiful fruit trees. The ground floor layout is completed with the largest of the holiday villa’s three bedrooms, with its king-size bed, adjacent patio, and well-appointed bathroom.

Villa Filira’s exterior, with its roomy patios, covered outdoor living spaces and cozy corners including the impressive BBQ area in the shade of a broad-leaf mulberry tree, the aromas of the Mediterranean plants, and an assortment of colorful flowers against a backdrop of the lush green lawn, create yet another stage set for unforgettable holidays. Surrender yourselves to this setting, its wooden deck, gazebo, rattan furniture, infinity pool, silvery olive trees, and sea and sky that meet as you gaze out towards the edge of the horizon. A wooden staircase, chic in its simplicity and absolutely safe, leads to the first floor which boasts two more bedrooms, elegantly attractive in every aspect: from the hardwood floors to the walls adorned with select works of art, to the comfortable beds– queen size in the one-bedroom and two twin beds in the second–all with top quality Filira Villa Chania - Inside Viewmattresses and bed linens of exceptionally high quality and thread count. The rooms’ spacious interiors naturally extend to the outdoors with the two separate, private balconies, tastefully outfitted in outdoor patio furniture. Fluffy bathrobes and towels, personal slippers, bath, and personal hygiene products, and everything that would equip the bathroom of a private home round out the amenities of the first-floor bedrooms’ shared bathroom.

a view which will make you forget the world and just enjoy every single second of calmness and beauty. The villa itself is on the level of a luxury 5 stars hotel...the owner took care of the smallest detail even bath amenities. The landscaping of the villa is wonderful with so many aromatic flowers and some orang, lemon and olives tress. A car is a must....many restaurants and supermarket nearby, about 5min by car. Very recommended and the owner Mrs. Roula is kind and helpful.

We would highly recommend this villa to anyone visiting Crete. The villa is a lovely size, high spec, nicely furnished and every little detail has been thought about. You ideally need a car even to get into the nearby village but its such a lovely villa we didn't want to leave for long. The owner, was lovely and very helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed plus some well received extras including local wine, home made preserves and olive oil. We were also able to benefit from the produce grown in the gardens including melons, tomatoes, courgettes to name a few. We would not hesitate to return and hope we will next year.

What a dream!! The house, the view, garden, pool, absolutely everything has exceeded our expectations. We have spent an unforgettable week at Villa Filira. Everything fits perfect and you feel the loving details of the owners. The warm and bright friendly welcome gave us immediately the feeling of beeing at home. The owners have created a jewel at Crete, and we can only be thankful that the both of them share it with their guests. We say thank you again! Thank you for everything and we would love to come back any time but then for a longer stay!

We just spent 4 nights in Crete at this Villa. Loved it! Located in a quiet location and has a lovely owner. The Villa has everything we needed and the owner provided us some extras (olive oil, jam, honey, and wine that are branded with the Villas name). This was our favorite place we stayed during our 2 week vacation.

We’ve just come back from a two week stay at villa Filira in Kolymvari - we had such a great time, the villa is beautifully presented, beds comfortable (really important!) and fabulous infinity pool looking out towards the sea. There’s plenty to do in the area and the host couldn’t have done more for us to make our stay enjoyable. We will definitely be back!

We were a family of 6 with two little boys we have stayed in many great villas but villa Felicita surpassed our expectations. Fresh vegetables and oranges to pick in the garden, the property has everything as well as great location for touring beautiful island and charming Hania.Also nearby small village of Kolimbari offers everything you need.Two other great highlights were the cook a great experience for a couple of nights of local cuisine but also the great hospitality of the owner Roula who was a wonderful host,I am sure one of our 3 generations will return if not all three !

We just completed our week at the Villa Filira. You know how sometimes the pictures you see of a property don't really turn out as an accurate portrayal? Well that is definitely not the case here. The pictures we saw online were totally accurate and in fact it was more beautiful than expected. Villa Filira exceeded our expectations in every way. The villa itself is noting less than spectacular. An amazing combination of old world grace with a modern feel as well. It is only 8 years old and in amazing condition. There are so many things to mention about this property that I'm afraid I'll miss something in this review. One of the coolest things about it is the fact that not only is there a garden from which you can pick fresh eggplant, peppers, etc but there are also both orange and lime trees on the property as well. I so enjoyed picking a fresh lime off of the tree to cut up and put in my drink. Never had that experience anywhere before. One night we cooked a meal using all the ingredients from the garden. Such a cool thing to be able to do. Roula the villa owner, met us when we arrived and walked us through the property. She was very helpful and quickly responded to any queries we had either by phone or text. On two nights, Roula arranged for us to have someone come in and cook us an authentic Cretan meal. It was definitely worth the very reasonable expense. Antonia the cook was very charming and you could tell she really enjoyed cooking for us. Would definitely recommend this. The view from the Villa is simply amazing. One of my favorite things about it was to be able to sit at the big wooden table outside on the deck and do some work, looking out at the expanse of the sea an mountains. We also took walks up the hill every morning, which was a great workout. There is also a cave at the top of the hill that is worth checking out. The people along the way were very friendly and waved and greeted us warmly every morning we went for our walk. The small town of Kolymbria is only a 5 minute drive from the villa and there are some very good restaurants and supermarkets there. I would also recommend renting a car. Roula recommended a local agency that dropped off the car right to the villa and picked it up on the day before we left. The price for the rental for the entire week was only around 200 Euros including mileage. We did take a day trip to Elafonissi beach. About an hour and a half drive from the Villa and worth it for sure. Not that far in distance, but the drive takes you through the mountains and several small villages. Very windy road and very high up in some parts, but well worth it. We actually enjoyed the drive as much as the beach. So if you are considering this Villa, then don't hesitate. Book it. Definitely one of the most relaxing vacations we've ever taken and with incredible accommodations and scenic views. Didn't want to leave and would come back in a millisecond.

Villa Filira is the ideal backdrop for a perfect, tranquil holiday retreat. Everything you need has been thought of and provided. The pool is fantastic, the view is even better. The villa is faultless and it was truly a luxury week away. The beaches and local village are a perfect match to the style and luxurious setting of the villa. We had the most relaxing week we've ever had. A return visit next year is definitely on the cards. Roula is the perfect host and the villa was just beautiful.

It's very spacious for 6 people and every part of the property was beautiful. The owner Roula did a great job of looking after us and ensuring we had a good stay, including recommending some very good local restaurants (Argentina and Dictyna) which made our stay particularly enjoyable.
