Holiday rentals in Pentamodi

We spent 14 nights at Samiro Home Villa. Evi was the perfect host, thoughtful, considerate and responded very quickly to all queries. Everything about the villa was clean and excellent. The grounds offered plenty of opportunities for both sun and shade and the gas barbecue made meals at home easy. Perched high up in the hills, the villa is peaceful and commands marvellous views over the mountains and countryside. It is located an easy 30 minute drive from the centre of Heraklion (recommend parking in the port area €3 all day) and around 45 minutes from the major archaeological sites at Gortys, Phaistos and Agia Triada.

Villa conforme à l’annonce et plus belle en réalité. Très bien équipé, propre et sécurisé ! Possibilité de louer une voiture et l’hôte est venu à l’aéroport nous chercher. Le jardin est beaucoup plus grand que sur les photos et très joli. Piscine propre et bien entretenue. Équipe très professionnel et disponible pour tout besoin ou question à toute heure. Une épicerie juste à côté avec une taverne. Encore merci pour votre professionnalisme! Villa que je recommande !

sans aucun doute l'un des meilleurs logements dans lequel j'ai séjourné ! Le logement est très agréable, très bien équipé même pour passer plusieurs jours. Il y a également un extérieur très agréable et l'environnement est tranquille. la situation est idéale, tres proche d’heraklion mais tranquille dans la campagne. L’hôte est toujours très réactive,disponible et pleine de recommandations. un logement que je recommande très fortement !

I am beyond grateful for my time at the house. Niki is an incredible woman - experienced, excellent conversation, generous… Niki you are magic! The house is a very special space and I couldn’t recommend it enough if what you are looking for is tranquility, mystical nature, walking through the hills to visit other villages… I spent a month here alone, without a car, and I found everything I needed as I was looking for simplicity. The local shop in Pendamodi is only 15-20 minutes walking and stocks cheeses, tins, a good selection of carbohydrates, wine etc. Fruit and vegetables are in the city, but even by bus it is easy to do. I experimented with the buses and it seems it is most consistently arriving between 7:15am and 7:30am but recommend getting to the stop at 7:15 to be safe. The buses back from the city are 13:00 and 14:30 - it costs €2.20 per journey with cash (25 mins more or less) The village itself and the mountains are beyond incredible. Strongly recommend. I will return x x x

Excellent hosts, impeccable Hellenic hospitality.; warm, thoughtful, helpful, responsive and really wonderful family. We met all three generations - Evi, her father Iracles/Hercules and the grandfather. They were helpful and friendly beyond duty. We loved our time there, away from tourist spots in the quiet of the countryside, yet only 20 minutes from Heraklion town & airport. We went out most days to explore the north and the south. - but Crete is huge … ! The drive to the south coast over the mountains is beautiful. The local village restaurant - a couple minute’s drive / 5-7 minutes walk - is excellent with good vegetarian options. The morning mug of coffee, looking out at the range of sun bathed mountains over the olive groves, farms, the horse(s) in the far field below, and the the distant sea was always a wonderful start to the day. That’s a memory to savor. Thank you Evi and Iracles for a wonderful stay, for your kindness and warmth. God willing we’ll be back.

Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Die Unterkunft liegt mitten in einem idyllischen Bergdorf. Bei der Ankunft wurden wir mit süßen Leckereien überrascht… Kommen gerne wieder…

Ein sehr netter und sehr hilfsbereiter Gastgeber und ein wunderschönes Haus.

This was the most beautiful place our family has ever stayed and the best airbnb experience we've ever had! It was great for a family vacation and the villa was equipped with everything we needed. Kostas went above and beyond with everything - his mother came and cooked a Cretan meal for us on our first night, there was a homemade Greek cake, wine, and eggs. We recieved fresh eggs and more wine (made at the villa!) every few days, as well as more towels. We truly couldn't have asked for anything better - there was even a couple local cats who we managed to persuade to come say hi. This is THE place to stay!
