Lake View Suites Private Pool Villas with Panoramic Lake Kournas Views Near Chania 48 Booking reviewsPosted on Booking MarionVerified Un moment de repos total! ☺ L’appartement est extraordinaire. Hyper bien aménagé, 2 terrasses, une vue exceptionnelle, une piscine pour nous 2 et Nikos au petit soin. Un moment de grande détente. ☹ Rien!Posted on Booking ChrisVerified ExceptionalPosted on Booking JeanVerified Exceptional ☺ Appartement très bien équipé, confortable et très bien situé au dessus du lac. Accueil très sympathique et le réfrigérateur bien garni pour les petits déjeuners, et même quelques canettes de bière. Nous y avons passé un séjour formidable avec la terrasse donnant sur le lac et la piscine privative pour les moments de repos après les visites touristiques. ☹ Tout était parfaitPosted on Booking VasylVerified ExceptionalPosted on Booking LisaVerified Simply amazing! ☺ Lake View Suites was a dream holiday from start to finish. Nikos the host went above and beyond from the very moment I booked. He accommodated a very inconvenient middle of the night arrival, arranged for taxi to pick us up from the airport, and greeted us on arrival. The fridge was fully stocked with everything you needed, bread, milk, juice, ham, cheese, beers, cokes. He even provided cereal for my young daughter. The apartment itself is spotless, again it had everything we could possibly need, washing liquids, dishwasher tablets etc. There was even a portable speaker which we used around the pool. The pool and views are to die for, honestly one of the most stunning views we have encountered. The pool had inflatables, comfy sun beds, lots of shaded areas and was spotless. Close to the apartment there are a number of tavernas all serving amazing food. The lake is about a 5 minute walk, again with lovely places to eat. The beach is easily accessible via a taxi or car if you are driving. We loved our stay and miss it already. I would love to come back. Thank you Nikos and your lovely mother for making us feel so welcome. We hope to see you again soon! ☹ Having to leave!Posted on Booking BogusławVerified Widok zdecydowanie wyróżnia ten apartament ☺ Wyjątkowy widok na jezioro Kournaos, bardzo dobry kontakt z gospodarzem, lodówka wypełniona colą, wodą, winem i piwem; prywatny basen z pięknym widokiem; liczne ręczniki; elastyczne godziny wymeldowania; Nikos dziękujemy i pozdrawiamy :)Posted on Booking AviramVerified Exceptional ☺ מארחים מדהימים בריכה פרטיתPosted on Booking KeithVerified Superb ☺ What's not to like? Nikos is a superstar. So generous, helpful and friendly. The apartment is extremely well equipped, with a private pool. There is another apartment and this one also has its own private pool on a different level. It's close to the lake, restaurants and transport into town if needed. The Welcome Pack was ample - water, coffee, tea, beer, wine, milk, bread, the list goes on. The Wifi was also really good, so the kids were happy. If we ever come back to Crete, we'll stay here again ☹ We had to leave.Posted on Booking SamuelVerified Exceptional ☺ Everything was INCREDIBLE! We spent the whole weekend here and never wanted to leave. The apartment is big, beautiful, and spotless. The private pool is extremely well kept and gorgeous. The view is absolutely breath taking! Nick, the host, was extremely nice and friendly and super accommodating and helpful. Can't wait to stay here again, highly recommend!!Posted on Booking AlinaVerified The perfect place with the most amazing host ☺ Everything From the arrival till we left, everything was magnificent I don't think there are enough words to describe how perfect and magical this place is ☹ No such thing

Posted on Google Anthony CostelloTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This lake looks amazing it's nice little views from the hill make it look breathtaking, you can rent little boats to go on the lake if you wanted toPosted on Google Sascha BenzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Der Aufenthalt war klasse! Besonders der Gastgeber Nikos war absolut spitze, zuvorkommend, hilfsbereit und freundlich! Der private Pool lädt zum Verweilen ein und hat eine tolle Aussicht auf die Berge und den See!Posted on Google Marek MargosiakTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Super miejsce zarówno na krótki odpoczynek, jak i na dłuższy urlop. Gospodarz niezwykle pomocny i uprzejmy. PolecamPosted on Google Νεκταρία ΚαστανάκηTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Νοικιασαμε πέρυσι ολο το συγκροτημα 12 ατομα με παιδιά για δυο βράδια και πραγματικα μας εμεινε αξέχαστη η διαμονή! Ο οικοδεσπότης απιστευτα εξυπηρετικός, φιλικός και ευγενικός μας προσφερε μεχρι και πρωινό με αρτοσκευασματα απο τοπικο φουρνο!!! Τα σπιτια ηταν πληρως εξοπλισμένα με οτι χρειαζομασταν και πολυ καθαρα. Νικο ευχαριστούμε πολύ!Posted on Google axier pagolaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great place and great location. When we arrived we had some refreshments and some snacks. The apartment was perfectly clean and everything was smelling good. Niko was really kind and sent us some information in advance about places around. The apartment is good size and the aircons works perfectly. My family was on vacation but due to some issues... I had to work and I can tell that the internet works amazingly good. Emails, Teams with camera and sharing content from the cloud,... no issues at all. Additionally you have a really good restaurnat 10 meters far, called Taberna Ambrosia, really good food, good service and affordable. The swimming pool is big enough to relax and has amazing views. The pool is a good place to relax listening music and eating and drinking. I would give a 10 and I would certainly repeat. Also, the apartment is right on top of the lake, 10 minutes walking, great to go to swim, a lot of fun. If I need to address a BUT... it would be that it is a bit far from Elafonisi, Balos and Samaria Gorge.
