amazing
the villa is perfect and the owners are kind and attentive- they cooked us a meal for our arrival and nothing was too much trouble. the photos don't really do it justice- there are extensive grounds with olive groves, fruit trees and an allotment, all of which you are encouraged to use. the taverna, which is a 3 minute walk away, is brilliant- we went 3 times. there are many great days out a short drive away. we had a brilliant time here and would highly recommend it

Villa Marvi -Exceptional property and personal service
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Crete and would highly recommend both the local area and without question Villa Marvi. Next time we still for much longer as there is so much to explore and to enjoy the peace and quiet of the villa and village. Thank you Stelios and his family for your perfect holiday home.

Beautiful villa for a relaxing holiday
The villa is stunning and finished to a very high standard. Spotlessly clean. Well maintained gardens full of fruit and vegetables which the lovely owners encourage you to pick and eat. The homemade welcome meal, complete with a large carafe of wine, was delicious and very well received after a day of travelling. The bed was comfortable. The pool is fabulous, with a jacuzzi in the shallow end. The villa is quite remote so a car is needed. Panarmo is the closest coastal village and our favourite place for a meal and drinks. We were lucky enough not to have any neighbours in the villa next to us during our stay, but only the bedroom balconies overlook the pool if there was anyone there. Would highly recommend Villa Marvi to our friends and family. Efcharistò

Heaven on Earth!
I have decided that this is what heaven looks like and sounds like to me. The hospitality shown us from the moment we arrived exceeded any expectations - three generations of the wonderful house family met us. They had a delicious homemade meal waiting on the table with wine! We loved picking apricots from the garden each morning. Make sure to visit Meldoni Cave, eat at Carob 'n Olive, and swim at the third to last beach in Bali. FANTASTIC!!! Clean, peaceful - you will awake to the sounds of roosters and goat bells. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!

Beautiful, peaceful & well appointed villa in a great location.
The property is a beautiful two story stone clad villa in the village of Roumeli, just in-land from the port town of Panormos. The villa is modern and beautifully decoratorated. It sits in a large private plot surrounded by fruit and olive trees with pots of beautiful and unsual plants on a hillside overlooking the sea to the North and the beautiful snowcapped mountains to the South. We found the villa quite difficult to locate on the first day and were quite late arriving. The wonderful family who run villa Marvi waited for us to arrive to welcome us and show us arround. They had even prepared a delicious traditional greek dinner for us. Our two boys loved the refreshingly cool pool (which was beautifully maintained) and wanted to be in there as soon as we got back from exploring each day. Our youngest loved critter hunting and found praying mantis, lizards and a Cretan Frog in the garden which made his holiday. Our eldest loved the WiFi.... We loved the peace and quiet and made use of the lovely BBQ facilities for dinners. We would suggest if you stay here you should definitiely visit the Palace of Knossos and hire a guide for an hour before exploring yourself. Heraklion museum is beautiful and holds the famous bulls head Rhyton; Cretes version of the mask of Tutankhamun. Rethymno & Chania harbours are full of history and are great places to enjoy a lovely seafood meal. There is a lovely, friendly and affordable taverna 5 mins walk away from the villa with great views over the valley & lots of gratis Raki. If you have a rainy day and kids we'd definitely suggest visiting Reptisland in the nearby village of Melidoni where your kids can hold snakes and lizards and Melidoni cave which a stones throw away. The Cretaquarium near Heraklion is lovely too, the VR experience is definitely worth paying the extra for. I'd like to thank Stelios and his family for making our stay in their wonderful villa a holiday we will always remember with a big smile. I am quite sure we will be back one day and have recommended Villa Marvi to all of our friends and releatives.

Lovely Villa
We have just returned from a lovely two week stay at this property. The villa is exactly as per the listing - spacious, spotlessly clean, great air conditioning and comfortable beds and all the facilities you need. The pool and outside areas are lovely too. Roumeli itself is a small village, with 3 main streets going up the hill, a very nice Taverna, a couple of cafes and a supermarket. We had a car and would probably recommend that - although here you have the advantage of feeling that you are in a remote place and yet being only a couple of kms from the national road and also the small coastal resort of Panormo. If you like the feeling of being away from it - but not too far than this is the perfect location. there is a property next door but they were only there for a couple of days and it was generally very quiet. As well as the villa itself, the hospitality of stelios and family was also outstanding. When we arrived they had prepared a lovely meal for us - as well as a basket of their wine, olives, oil fruit and other produce. Throughout the stay we were left with different gifts of fruit and vegetables from the garden, eggs and even cakes. It was a lovely additional touch and adds to the general charm of the place. We would definitely stay again if we visit Crete again and would highly recommend this lovely place

A small slice of heaven
What a beautiful villa, an amazing experience and incredible host. From the first moment you arrive, where Donia and Stelios (and mum) have prepared a welcome moussaka for you, there’s not a moment that isn’t idyllic. With its own olive grove, herb garden and orchestra of crickets, Villa Marvi just keeps on giving. The views are spectacular, the BBQ and pool perfect and you just couldn’t possibly wish for more....other than a longer stay of course! Best hosts and villa ever, can’t recommend this place highly enough...

Relaxing, wonderful holiday
Stelios and his family were so welcoming. The villa has everything you could want including a delicious moussaka to welcome us, regular deliveries of fruit and vegetables homegrown, towels for the pool, inflatables for the pool, excellent air conditioning, a wonderful taverna, local cafe and supermarket and much more. My mark down for the description was that with all the wonderful photos there were none that showed the villa immediately next door with a balcony overlooking our pool. We had a perfect holiday and would thoroughly recommend Villa Marvi
