Indoor facilities at Villa Mare Falasarna

Villa Mare is a two-story villa consisting of three bedrooms, two of which are located on the first floor with the other one. The bathrooms on the first floor are ensuite with showers. On the ground floor, there is another bedroom. Luxury and modern design complete the scenery of contemporary architecture and high-quality products. On the ground floor, there is a spacious open area with a fully equipped kitchen, a dining area, a living room with modern furnishings, and a big flat-screen smart TV with satellite channels. The large doors open onto the veranda and pool area, providing a seamless transition between the indoor and outdoor areas.

Outdoor facilities at Villa Mare Falasarna

The most dominant feature of the exterior area is a large swimming pool with a secure session for kids to swim and a lounge area with sofas and a firepit, making it the ideal spot to relax while gazing at the gorgeous sunset. Pretty close to this area exists an outdoor dining table under a pergola next to the charcoal barbecue with a sink, cupboards, and preparation area. Next to this area, there are comfortable sunbeds with umbrellas for luxurious poolside relaxation. Spacious verandas and balconies are the best places to spend your time outside enjoying the sea view and fresh air. Don’t forget that a secure parking area is provided outside of the villa.

*Heated Pool Policy

The swimming pool can be heated from March till the end of May and from 15th September till the end of November, upon request free of charge by a Pool Heat Pump at about 26 – 27°C depending on weather conditions. We request three days’ advance notice for this facility.(Kindly be informed that the heated pool feature is not available during the summer months due to naturally high ambient temperatures).

As the villa is located on a hill, the last 600m to reach the complex is an off-road road. We recommend using an SUV car to reach the complex easily.

The villa is situated at a very idyllic point and nothing can interrupt the magical views of the Cretan sea and mountains.

Villa Mare is part of the Cielo e Mare Villas Complex, which includes three villas: Villa Cielo ( 3 bedrooms) ,Villa Mare (3 bedrooms) and Villa Vista (1 bedroom). Cielo e Mare Villas are three private, luxurious, and autonomous villas set on a hill with gorgeous Sea views.

Testimonials

Britt April 2026

This is an amazing property. The house is beautiful as in the photos and has all amenities. Three days into the stay the house gets a professional clean plus changing of towels and sheets which felt very luxurious. The pool and garden area are immaculate. We visited early April and this meant most restaurants etc in close vicinity were still closed which was ok with us. The kitchen has everything you need to cook and local supermarkets are well stocked. Within a 20 min drive you can find nice restaurants. Must have for staying here: good rugged car (we had a Jeep), the road to the house is through very rocky terrain next to agricultural land. Also if you want to visit local beaches a good Jeep would be best (definitely for Balos). The pool felt cold even though heated but felt very warm on our last day. Maybe we should have asked them to check (the agents are super nice and responsive!).,if it’s your first time there do sound some time in Chania and go to Balos beach! Enjoy.

Audrey Lamothe – Villa Cielo November 2025

Loved our stay with Holiways Villas at Cielo & Mare! Amazing staff, attention to details & responsive. Thanks again for everything!

Richard Morgan – Villa Mare November 2025

Villa Mare was absolutely beautiful and spotlessly clean. The views over the sea were amazing and it was the perfect place for a relaxing holiday. The villa was well appointed with great attention to detail throughout. Peaceful location, lovely local tavernas and a warm welcome from Sandra and the team. We left with lovely memories and would love to come back one day! Highly recommended!

Andrea – Villa Mare October 2025

Wir hatten eine wunderbare Zeit in der Unterkunft. Das Haus bietet alles, was das Herz begehrt. Wahnsinnig schöner Ausblick, tolle Sonnenuntergänge, super Ausstattung, alles blitzsauber und gepflegt, einfache und schnelle Kommunikation, flexibler Check-in. Alles sah aus wie auf den Fotos und noch schöner. Es gab einen Korb mit landestypischen Spezialitäten und Snacks. Abends kann man auch sehr gut die Sterne beobachten. Um vor Ort sich bewegen zu können, ist meiner Meinung nach ein Auto notwendig. Die letzten Fahrminuten zur Unterkunft führen über eine grobe Schotterstraße. Ist denke ich mit jedem Auto machbar, eine Reifenversicherung ist zu empfehlen. Wenn wir das nächste Mal nach Kreta reisen, kommen wir sehr gern wieder zurück. Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt. Vielen Dank für alles.

Stephan van Sint Fiet – Villa Mare August 2022

This review relates to the Cielo e Mare Villas in Falassarna.

In short: book this place, you will not regret it. The location on the hillside above the Falassarna bay is stunning, the house is as beautiful as on the pictures and the view is simply stunning. Guests have nearly 180 degree view of the bay and surrounding hills. The host from Holiway (Stella) and house owner were very kind and helpful throughout the whole stay, we got some great advice for activities and local restaurants. The village and nearby town have everything you need for your stay. A good car, ideally SUV, is recommended for getting to and from the house.

Julia – Villa Mare September 2025

The view is simply amazing and the beach is in walking distance. We loved the place.

Wayne – Villa Mare October 2025

Super.

Beautiful, clean and stylish house with stunning, peaceful views of the sea and glorious sunsets. Very lovely owner and hosts.

Ivana – Villa Mare June 2024

Exceptional

David – Villa Mare May 2025

La villa de nos rêves pour passer des vacances inoubliable.
L’emplacement surplombant la mer avec en prime, un coucher du soleil quotidien…Le confort et l’agencement de la villa : tout était parfait.
Pas grand chose si ce n’est le chemin ((très court) pour y accéder.

Natasha – Villa Mare April 2023

Immaculate property, beautiful views
Exceptional villa, with everything you could possibly need for a self-catered holiday. It was immaculately clean, luxurious and with stunning views across Falasarna and the beaches. The photos on Booking.com are an accurate depiction of the villa and the pool (your own pool, each villa has a separate one).

Stella the concierge was so helpful, she organised a shopping delivery for our arrival. She was available throughout the stay if we needed her.

We arrived just before Easter, still in the off-season and felt like we had most of Crete to ourselves with just a handful of other tourists – no queues, empty beaches and friendly unhurried service in the restaurants, bakeries and supermarkets.

Eating lunch next to the pool, gazing out across the Mediterranean with the hills framing the view – what a fantastic week.
There was nothing I would change.

Daisy – Villa Mare July 2023

PERFECT PIECE OF PARADISE
Absolutely everything. The villa was stunning, inside and out, We had the most beautiful views, the pool was incredible, the villa rooms and facilities weer beyond expectations and were just perfect. The communication with Giannis and then the incredible Stella made everything so easy and we were so thankful for them. All 6 of us said multiple times that it was the most beautiful place we’d ever stayed in – the outdoor kitchen, the fire pit, the garden, the pool. BEAUTIFUL. We were also on a 2 min drive or 10 min walk from the incredible smaller Falasarna beach and great tavernas. Our only wish is to have stayed here for so much longer, Love love loved it.
NOTHING

Brabec – Villa Mare April 2024

Thank you so much for cleaning service, they did outstanding job much appreciated. Heated pool was nice treat in April.

We had unforgettable vacation at Cielo e Mare, really exceptional place. Thank you for letting us enjoy your Villa.

Ildiko – Villa Mare July 2021

Our stay at Villa Mare was splendid. We enjoyed the luxuries of the house and its surrounding area. The Falassarna region is still very quiet and relaxing. It offers a variety of nice restaurants and wonderful beaches.
The sunsets from Villa Mare’s terrace were breathtaking. We enjoyed the pool and lounge areas every evening, stargazing and the sounds Nature helped us relax and recharge.
Stella was a fantastic hostess; she gave us a lot of good advice concerning restaurants and shops and responded very promptly to our inquiries.
You need a car if you want stay at Villa Mare, the place is very safe and you can park your car in a protected area.
We were a party of four people and had lots of space, we highly recommend Villa Mare for your vacation, if you are looking for a clean, quiet, luxurious and simply beautiful place to stay.

Michael- Villa Mare July 2021

We had a fantastic week in Villa Mare. The house and garden is wonderful. Everything is well prepared, the service during the week is perfect and the location is awesome.
We loved our week in Falassarna and now we want to buy a house in the area.

Felix – Villa Mare September 2021

Die Villa liegt auf einem Berg und ist über eine nicht befestigte Straße zu erreichen. Durch die hohe Lage hat man einen fantastischen Ausblick auf das Meer und den Sonnenuntergang. In wenigen Fahrminuten erreicht man eine kleine Bäckerei fürs Frühstück und einen Mini-Market. Im Ort sind einige Restaurants mit tollem Ausblick zu finden, ein Auto ist hier aber unerlässlich: den nächst größeren Ort Platanias erreicht man in ca. 30 Fahrminuten.
Die Fotos entsprechen zu 100% der Villa. Bei der Sauberkeit gibt es nichts zu bemängeln. Lediglich die Organisation der Reinigungszeiten gestaltete sich schwierig: eine Reinigungskraft für die ganze Villa benötigte mind. 3 Stunden, während wir draußen warteten, um sie nicht zu stören. Die Reinigungszeiten wurden sehr spontan besprochen. Dies wurde bei der Mitarbeiterin von Holiways bereits angemerkt, sie nahm die Kritik professionell entgegen.
Die Sonnenliegen sind sehr bequem und hochwertig, jedoch gibt es am Pool durch die kleinen Strohschirme kaum Schattenplätze. Auch der große Esstisch draußen befindet sich ab einer gewissen Zeit in praller Hitze. Eventuell sollte man hier für Leute, die wie wir nicht an starke Sonnenstrahlen gewöhnt sind, über weitere Schattenmöglichkeiten, zB Sonnensegel nachdenken.
Der Kontakt zu Holiways erweiste sich vor, während und auch nach unserer Reise als professionell und freundlich.
Wir können die Villa zu 100% weiterempfehlen.

Farshad – Villa Mare October 2021

What a lovely place!!
We spent a fabulous week here end of September visiting from Manchester, three couples, and everything was perfect. It has everything you can ask for, view, location, heated pool, access to beach (not only one!), villa itself, not to mention the most beautiful sunset !!
If you are a bbq lover it has a decent bbq!! Team is professional and friendly. Easy check in and access to the villa’s management team for any requirement you might have.
We will happily go back to this villa for our next Crete visit.

Johannes – Villa Mare October 2021

Traumhafte Unterkunft in jeder Hinsicht! Die Lage ist unbeschreiblich, morgens der Blick auf das Meer, die Stille, gelegentlich hört man Ziegen in der Nähe, keine Autos… Die drei Einheiten sind so konzipiert, dass man wirklich überhaupt nichts voneinander mitbekommt. Die gesamte Architektur und Innenausstattung bewegt sich auf einem wirklich sehr hohen Niveau, hervorragende Betten, Sanitär sehr geschmackvoll und tadellos funktionierend, Küche voll ausgestattet, es gibt sogar einen Weinkühlschrank!!! Außerordentlich netter und freundlicher Kontakt mit Stella und Maria. Den Besitzer haben wir leider verpasst, da wir an diesem Tag im Süden Kretas waren, er hat uns einen sehr guten Limonenkuchen dagelassen.
Alles in allem die in allen Belangen bislang beste Selbstverpflegerunterkunft, die wir hatten, nicht nur auf Kreta.

Khara – Villa Mare May 2022

Perfect location for a family stay. The villa is just beautiful with the most amazing sea views. The furnishings inside and out are such high quality. The villa has been very carefully thought through and planned to ensure that guests have everything they will need during their stay. Any questions we had were answered quickly and professionally by the team. The owner himself was lovely and he paid us a visit also. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The villa and pool were very clean on our arrival and we were welcomed by Maria who helped us to settle in and explained everything we needed to know. Five star service- thank you.

Karolin – Villa Mare October 2022

Es ist eine wunderbare Villa; sehr geräumig, schön designt, fantastisch gelegen und ausgestattet mit allem was man braucht. Trotz den schönen Stränden in unmittelbarer Nähe, wollten wir das Grundstück kaum verlassen 😉

Catherine – Villa Mare May 2023

Incredible hosts. The villa was exceptionally clean. Very prompt and thoughtful service. They helped us set up wide the of services and provided excellent recommendations. Would absolutely stay again.

Stephan – Villa Mare June 2023

2nd time in this wonderful villa and absolutely loved it again. See my first review for more details, but honestly, the pictures speak for themselves…

Bridgitte – Villa Mare July 2023

We had a wonderful stay at the villa in West Crete. The villa was a short distance from one of the most beautiful beaches. We used the smaller beach so that our children could swim safely, however, there were three other nearby beaches with lots of facilities available. The view was spectacular and we had a very relaxing time around the pool reading and enjoying the sunsets. We all had a wonderful time and our host was very responsive. Would definitely recommend this place for a family of four looking for a top notch time together.

Lisa – Villa Mare October 2023

Eine sehr schöne Villa in Falassarna. Es war ein wunderbarer Urlaub. Man ist nur für sich und das Haus gibt mit Pool genug Platz und Möglichkeiten für bis zu 6 Personen. Es ist genau wie auf den Bildern. Gastgeber absolut freundlich, nett und hilfsbereit.
Immer wieder gerne, Preis-Leistung stimmt. Gastfreundschaft wird hier groß geschrieben. Vielen lieben Dank dafür.

Liz – Villa Mare May 2024

Wunderschönes uneinsehbares Ferienhaus mit Traumblick über das komplette Gebiet, ruhig oben am Berg gelegen. Auffahrt etwas holprig aber nimmt man aufgrund der tollen Aussicht gerne in Kauf. Sehr stilvoll eingerichtet, da bleiben keine Wünsche offen. Beheizter wunderschöner Pool. Kommunikation sehr gut, Sauberkeit Top, Begrüssungskorb mit griechischen Leckereien, der Besitzer hat uns sogar mal einen leckeren Torte vorbei gebracht. Herzlichen Dank an alle die diesen Urlaub unvergesslich gemacht haben.
5 Sterne von uns, würden es uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.

Anastasia – Villa Mare June 2024

Fantastic place!
The villa is wonderful, spacious and very peaceful.
We had a great time there
Many thanks to Stella for making this stay so special and pleasant for us.

Gia – Villa Mare July 2024

Incredible views and great host. Highly recommend.

Severina – Villa Mare October 2024

BEST VIEW EVER! The impossible blues of the beaches and sea, the expanse of the night sky. Enjoying the pool. Adventuring to Falassarna beach, Elafonissi, and the famous Balos ‘blue lagoon’. Delicious food at Spilios, and ALEA. A perfect location, views from every room. We absolutely loved our stay.

Antoine – Villa Mare November 2024

Parfait

Ramon – Villa Mare June 2025

Die Villa war wunderschön – genau wie auf den Fotos. Alles war sehr sauber und gepflegt und es hat nichts gefehlt. Besonders abends war die Stimmung traumhaft, mit einem schönen Sonnenuntergang direkt vom Pool aus.
Falasarna Beach ist nur drei Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt und ist bestimmt einen Besuch wert. Die letzten etwa 300 Meter der Zufahrt zur Unterkunft sind zwar etwas steinig, aber problemlos auch ohne Geländewagen befahrbar.
Insgesamt eine traumhafte Unterkunft in toller Lage – wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen!

Mico – Villa Mare June 2025

Séjour incroyable.
Prestations à la hauteur, du linge de maison propre.
Tous est pensé pour se sentir bien.
Un havre de paix, et une vue dont on ne se lasse pas.
