Crete Villas - Freelance Villa Rentals
Spring is one of the most popular times to visit Crete, thanks to its proliferation of beautiful wildflowers. Did you konw that the island is home to over 2,000 species of plants, 10% of which can't be found anywhere else? Western Crete is the best place to see them, between now and May. Of particular note are the orchid, with 60 species here. #Crete #wildflowers #orchids #Kriti #Chania #Whitemountains #spring

We know that Freelance Villas customers have impeccable taste, but today, Tripadvisor has named Elafonissi Beach, Crete as THE best beach in the world in their Travellers Choice awards 2025. Its pink sands, family friendly beach and crystal clear waters were the winning factors. 10th best beach in the world (and 4th best in Europe?) Myrtos Beach, Kefalonia. #bestbeach #tripadvisor #travellerschoice2025 #Elafonissi #Crete #Myrtos #Kefalonia #summer #holiday

Villas with gardens
We've been captivated by Monty Don's British Gardens series, currently showing on BBC 2. There's nothing more uplifting than the sight of a garden in full bloom, especially during January! The colour! The hope! Here's just one of our favourite gardens surrounding Villa Vigla, in Stylos, Crete. Isn't it lovely! https://freelancevillas.link/vigla #gardens #bloom #flowers #villaswith gardens #MontyDonsBritishGardens #colour #RHS #gardening

The historic, once sleepy town of Gavalohori (aka Gavalochori), just 3kms from Almyrida and 25kms from Chania has had something of a makeover in recent years. Now it's packed full of artisan shops and food and drink establishments. https://freelancevillas.link/gavalohori #Gavalohori #Gavalochori #Crete #artisan #tavernas #foodanddrink #Mera #TheSwallow #Monicastaverna #Piperakisbakery #ElipidaKafeneio #travel #local #localknowledge #holiday #vacation #visitgreece

Great Greek Cookbook!
If you're a confirmed Graecophile, or know someone who is, this recipe book which came out earlier this year might make for a great Christmas gift. One-pot pastisio or baklava cheesecake, anyone? (Our opinion only - we have no financial incentive for promotion, just hunger!!) https://georginahayden.com/greekish/ #Greece #Greek #greekfood #Christmas #xmas #gift #food #delicious
