A massive thank you......

Georgia was a wonderful host. We stayed there after our return flight from Greece to the UK was cancelled. We were allowed to keep our room all day until we checked out to leave for the airport at no extra cost. Georgia arranged our transfer and refused anything extra for the additional services she provided. Kares Estate is a wonderful quiet place to spend time away from the tourist areas of this wonderful island.

Nothing.

Great hospitality let down by poor maintenence and updating

Good location, easy to find and not too far from the airport. Staff very friendly and helpful, food very good and excellent breakfast. Swimming pool was clean. Villa itself was clean as we're the surrounding gardens. Lovely view. Evening meal was nice and very good value. Georgia our host was great, best part of our stay.

The main building was dated, lots of wooden structures which appeared to need maintenence and did not look like the websites images which must have been taken some time ago. Main resturaunt area inside very dated. The villa was very different from website images. No aircon in our room made it a very difficult nights sleep. The villa is on three levels, the lower floor was good. Very small kitchen area which did not bother us as we were only there one night.

Ideal for the airport

A warm & friendly welcome. Verdant landscape and quiet rural setting away from the hustle and bustle of Heraklion. Theres a beautiful swimming pool

our accommodation seems to have seen better days ! There are lovely photos on their website but they must have been the first photos ! We took the basic room with countryside view. I believe that there are some things that need to be reviewed, like the general layout of the accommodation, electricity, security and general wear and tear of the property. I dont think that 72 euros is a fair price.

A great stay at a beautiful place with a lovely, welcoming staff!

We had a fantastic weekend here, the staff made us feel at home right away, doing everything to accommodate our needs, and Georgia is a lovely character, always around with a smile and warm humor while working with everything! The location is lovely and quiet and has a good atmosphere, everything was nice and clean. They prepare local food, using fresh and local quality products. We had all our meals here, and enjoyed everything! Make sure to try the pomegranate juice for breakfast! It is a bit remote so it's recommended to have a car. This is a place we would like to visit again!

A delightful two night stay.

Beautiful location Friendly staff make you feel welcome throughout. Georgia is exceptional, she is constantly on the go cleaning, cooking etc. but always has time for a chat and some fun as well.
