EXCELLENT LOCATION, SPOTLESSLY CLEAN, WELL SERVICED

The entire process from booking to arriving to leaving was faultless. Dimos was there every step of the way, guiding and advising us and was there to greet us. The accom is as it is in the photos. It's beautifully located of you prefer peace and quiet and it's only a short walk into the centre of town. We LOVED that aspect - it was private and quiet. One thing to note, though, is if you have mobility issues, the accom is spread over 4 stories with the bedroom being on the 3rd floor (up to flights of timber spiral stairs) and the bathroom/toilet is on the ground floor. Not a terrible issue for us but could be a nuisance for middle-of-the-night toilet visits. Other than that, we rate this 5 out of 5 and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Thank you for everything, Dimos.

Quiet, Convenient and Charming

The house is lovely and the view from the comfortably outfitted terrace wonderful. Dimos is a most gracious and helpful host. The location is next to the waterfront in old town yet on a quiet street. There are stairs between floors but the entrance door is at ground level. I will be coming back.

Relaxing stay in Chania

An excellent comfortable house to stay in, at the quieter end of the Old Town. Our host, Dimos, was charming and very helpful, with our late arrival, parking and recommendations for good places to eat. The house is on 4 floors. The terrace at the top was a great place place to relax.

Beautiful roof terrace, ideal location, quiet, comfortable, and a host who communicates very well. Would be happy to return. Stairs could present a challenge for some (36 between bedroom and bathroom), but the listing was completely transparent and it was not a problem for us.

Great location, helpful host

This queint old house has all the modern amenities and situated on the edge of the Old Town: steps away from the harbor, ountless restaurants and shops, the lighthouse, yet away from the noisy heavy traffic areas. The roof top terrace is the best resting place after the day of walking around. The host was very responsive to all my questions and requests. VRBO w/conveniences of cleaning and concierge services, the best of the two worlds!

Perfect

Dimos is an excellent host. The apartment speaks for itself. It is perfectly located in Old Town with fish taverns just outside. We used this as a base and explored as far as Knossos. We had another great day driving to Plakius and back. Every day trip ended with a great evening, snacking in tavernas and wandering through the narrow streets of Chania until we ended back to a beautiful apartment.

Great house in fab location!

We loved staying here. House is very well appointed and very comfortable. Townhouse over 3 floors with a fantastic roof terrace which has great views over the harbour and up to the mountains. Location is fantastic - right in the marina side of the harbour. Fab restaurants and beautiful chania old town right on the doorstep. Parking can be found close by in either car park or street. We’d definitely stay again!

What a great place to stay in Chania

Casa Sabbionara is in Chania Old Town and walking distance to everything. It is a beautifully restored building, elegant, and true to its historic heritage, but with all modern amenities. The highlight of our stay, however, was the host. Always responsive, Dimosthenis went over and above in helping us out, even arranged transportation to the airport. Thank you!

Just Perfect!!!

The communications with Dimos were so easy and he was there to introduce us to Casa Sabbionara on arrival. This property is spotless and so very comfortable!! Everything we needed had been thought of. It was pretty hot when we were there but the property is beautifully air conditioned throughout. The terrace area is the icing on the cake!! We spent most afternoons enjoying a glass of wine and admiring the view whilst enjoying the very welcome shade and luxuriating on the lovely corner sofa with some soft music playing...heaven! Dimos had thoughtfully provided a welcome bottle of wine, fresh fruit and some raki for us to try, as well as some bottles of water and soft drinks to see us through the first night. The house is literally a 2 minute walk from the harbour area where you will find an array of restaurants and bars. You will have so much delicious food to choose from. Everything is very reasonable and top top quality. The harbour is buzzy in a good way - no trouble just lots of people happy and smiling...after all whats not to like! This is heaven and Casa Sabbionara is the place to enjoy it to its fullest. We loved it!!

Amazing Place!!!

Casa Sabbionara has been one of the most wonderful places I’ve stayed at. It was located in my opinion the best area of Chania, with charming streets/alleys and restaurants within a 1-2 minute walk. Dimos was very attentive in helping us with whatever we needed. He even came back to let us back in when we locked our keys in the place when we were leaving! My husband and I stayed for 6 nights and it wasn’t enough! Thank you for the wonderful stay!!!

Stairways to Heaven

The upper outdoor balcony was fantastic. When we were at the house, that is where we spent our time reading and eating. The location is perfect, walking distance to great restaurants....small beaches....and the lighthouse!!! Dimos is very attentive and patient will all our questions. Each room is on a different level which makes it unique. Very comfortable bed, hot showers, we loved it!!!!! The bathroom is on the main level and the bedroom is on the 3rd level. The large outdoor space with a view to the sea makes it all worthwhile and we would definitely stay here again!!!!

I concur with the existing reviews and this was the first time we have ever had the excellent experience of having the owner greet and orient us. However I think that any future renter should know that the bathroom is on the ground floor and the bedroom is on the 3rd floor.

True Hania Gem

The very best of locations was at our 10 day stay in the Old Town of Hania at the Sabbionnara Villa hosted by a delightful Greek - Dimos. He met us and showed us through his unique villa of several levels, each with character and use, but the best was the lovely outside patio, where we could go to escape the heat, catch the breezes off the beautiful old port waters. The location in the Old Town was perfect, close to parking and walking distance to everything, especially shopping and eating. One caveat is there are lots of stairs, but we are both over 80 and managed just fine. Mel & Marilyn

The perfect place to stay if you want to be in the heart of Old Port Chania. Beautiful views and charming apartment in the heart of the action. The apartment is exactly as shown in the pics. Dimos is a fabulous host very attentive quick to answer any questions and very hospitable. The bed is very comfortable with lots of pillows. The only problem…. we didn’t stay long enough.

Once in a Lifetime Experience

This trip was to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. After some challenges with flights and luggage, we arrived in Chania for our stay at the Casa Sabbionara. What an amazing place. The view from the balcony was incredible and the property itself was perfect for us. The location puts you very close to the harbor area but kept you away from the noise and crowds. The host, Dimos, is probably one of the nicest, friendliest people I've had the privilege of meeting. He couldn't have been more helpful. He texted us almost daily to see if we needed anything or just to see how we were doing. And the communication before we ever arrived was incredibly helpful. I can't say enough about this experience. Completely amazing.

What a fantastic place!

This was the second house we were in for the other half of our holiday and it was absolutely brilliant. The communication with Dimos was superb and the house was immaculate - there were some welcome gifts waiting for us too! Fresh towels were provided every few days along with waste collections. It's location is great and is located at one end of the old town harbour with easy access to parking literally a 1 min walk to the front door. Chania itself is magnificent and vibrant and there is so much to explore. Dimos sent us some great recommendations for places to visit and eat and I know its said often but we really didn't want to leave! Thanks again for the stay Dimos!
