Our guests' experiences

Villa Athene
Liebe Familie Beibl, wir (4 Pärchen ) durften im Mai 2025 in der Villa Athene Ihre Gäste sein. Beim betreten der Villa waren waren wir Sprachlos über die Ausstattung der Villa, Lage, Meerblick. Nach dem wir uns darauf erstmal ein Mythos Bier getrunken haben, losten wir die Zimmer aus. Jedes Zimmer ist Perfekt ausgestattet, alle waren mit ihrem Zimmer rundum zufrieden. Der Pool ist von der Größe genau richtig, um sich Entspannt abzukühlen. Unseren Dank möchten wir auch an die freundlichen Damen die für die Innenreinigung zuständig waren ausdrücken. Die gutgelaunten Pool-Boys möchten wir auch unseren Dank aussprechen, nach einem Sahara Sandsturm ist der Pool schnell wieder gereinigt worden. Ein Erlebnis für uns war, das Köchin Amalia für uns gekocht hat. Einfach perfekt, wir waren alle rundum satt und glücklich. Wir haben 10 glückliche Tagen verbracht. Vielen Dank Familie Beibl, das wir Ihre Gäste sein durften. Wir werden uns wieder sehen. Liebe Grüße Wolfgang, Petra und Freunde

Villa Athene

Seid vielen Jahren sind wir mehr als zufriedene Gäste bei den Beibls auf Kreta. Alle Villen sind so extrem gut und mit Liebe ausgestattet, dass man sich von der ersten Sekunde zu Hause fühlt. Natürlich mit viel Sonne und dem phantastischen Meer. Wir lieben mittlerweile Kreta wie unsere zweite Heimat und können uns nichts schöneres vorstellen, als in der Villa Athene oder Rimondi Urlaub zu machen. Vielen, vielen Dank liebe Familie Beibl für diese wunderbaren Häuser, die extrem gute Gästebetreuung und die vielen tollen Tipps, um Kreta zu erkunden. Ihre Diana Dreeßen-Wösten mit Detlev Wösten und unserem ganzen Family and Friendsclan, den wir immer mitbringen.
