Velanos Villas

Pros: finding our villa and acessing the room was not a problem, communication with jenny (the owner) worked perfectly. very nice old stone villas. jenny was very friendly and came over the next morning to say hello.ä and gave us recommendations for restaurants.

Great view, nice and cozy villas. A perfekt getaway

Pros: Great view, nice and cozy villas. A perfekt getaway. Very sweet owners

Cons: The drive up is not for the faint hearted

Unspoilt haven.

Pros: Jenny has created a haven up in the mountains. It's 20 mins to Topolio gorge and 20 mins to Elafonnissi i.e. easy access to hiking AND beach days -with a return to stunning views with only the sound of birds and bells at the end of the day. Great local eateries (ask Jenny!) in time-untouched villages. We also appreciated the homemade gifts left for us - the beeswax balm is amazing!

Cons: For us, it was perfect.

Stunning views from the terrace and a beautiful starry sky at night

Pros: Great location in the mountains. The view from the villa's terrace was stunning. The territory of the villa was great, there's a swimming pool which we unfortunately didn't have time to use. The villa itself is built in a classical stone house style and gives a vibe of the grandma's house in the village. A bottle of wine and cookies were waiting for us on arrival. Unfortunately, due to our schedule we didn't meet the owner, but they were really friendly when messaging.

Cons: The road to the villa after you turn from the main road is steep and could be hard for non-experienced drivers. The village is super small and has only one or two restaurants, so not many food options to reach by foot.

Beautiful stone villa in the mountains

Pros: Fabulous large Villa full of character, with amazing views, hosts left us wine, apple cake & beeswax, very kind.

This villa is a precious jewel in a beautiful location.

Pros: I highly recommend these lovely villas. We stayed in early September and the weather was perfect for lazing and eating out on our private balcony, swimming in the good size pool and simply enjoying the beautiful views. A drive to a recommended beach took less than half an hour and the fabulous Krystalia taverna was a gentle 15 minute walk (other even closer tavernas were available!). The village church with its 14th century frescos is well worth a visit. Last but not least our host, Jenny, made our visit all the more special thanks to her warm welcome (with goodies), attention to detail and useful suggestions. Would love to return.

Simply beautiful

Pros: Our villa was just simply amazing. We are very happy to stayed in Velanos. Very good owner and such beautiful lovely place. ⭐️

picturesque, peaceful, relaxing

Pros: The location was beautiful and views are amazing. Such a lovely place. If you’re looking for total ‘off grid’ tranquility…this is the place.

Cons: It was a little to isolated for us. We had booked a week but we stayed only 3 nights as we are more drawn to the coastal areas. But if you are looking for nothing but peace and quiet and away from ‘life’ itself….you will love it 😊

breathtaking views, great villa, brilliant owner

Pros: Beautiful location, lovely view and room. jenny the owner was a delight. wine and water in the fridge, plus her tasty apple pie.

Pros: The place was amazing and Jenny also. Everything was perfect from beginning until the end. The house, Jenny, the swimming pool, the view, the cat and the sweet gifts from Jenny.
