Villa Leva Chania | By Unique Villas GR
Xirokampi is located in Platanias, 18km from the city of Chania, at an altitude of 150 meters, and offers a unique view towards the valley with olive trees and vineyards. Xirokampi is just 3km away from the beach of Pyrgos Psilonerou. The village has no developed tourist infrastructure, but being close to Platanias one can enjoy all amenities and buzzy nightlife and day life in one of the most cosmopolitan resorts of Crete. The name of the village is probably attributed to the desiccation of the sources that used to exist in the area.
Situated in the most western part of Crete island, Chania is considered among the most picturesque cities of the island due to its beautiful architecture. It is a crossroad of many civilizations that have left their trails on the island. Chania has truly amazing places to visit, from secret villages and fabulous beaches to interesting historical sights. The most impressive beaches are Balos, Elafonissi and Falassarna, while there are innumerable other amazing beaches around its coastline, from organized resorts to totally secluded coves.
Crete is the largest island in Greece and the fifth largest in the Mediterranean Sea. Here you can admire the remnants of brilliant civilizations, explore glorious beaches, impressive mountainscapes, fertile valleys and steep gorges, and become part of the island’s rich gastronomic culture. One of the most popular destinations of the country, Crete is the dream of a lifetime for millions of tourists.
Being among the top 20 tourist destinations worldwide, Greece is synonymous with 3 things: history and ancient civilization, amazing landscapes and top touristic destinations. Greece is so wealthy in culture and beauty that it never seems to be completely explored. Holidays in Greece is the ultimate experience all year round. It offers a great pallet of experiences; the warm sun, the crystal clear beaches, the dramatic nature, the rich culture and the renowned hospitality along with the unique culinary experience of the Mediterranean diet.

We have just returned from a wonderful 10 days in the villa. The accommodation itself is modern, bright and spotlessly clean. The location was perfect for us, for a peaceful break and yet only a 10 minute drive from the main stretch of restaurants on the coast. There is also a very welcoming restaurant in the nearby village where you can enjoy a few drinks or sample some delicious local dishes. The owner, Vasilis, was very friendly and very responsive to any messages. We would certainly return in the future and recommend the villa to others. Thank you again, Vasilis
We had a fantastic time. The location, surroundings and facilities are simply wonderful. Everything matches the photos. Vasilis is a wonderful host - the reception was warm and we got great tips for great, varied restaurants and excursions in the area. We fully recommend the accommodation and will be happy to come back!
I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Vasilis for his incredible hospitality, warm welcome, and for always being available whenever needed. Nothing was ever too much trouble – your kindness and attentiveness truly made our stay special.
The villa itself is absolutely stunning – the photos simply don’t do it justice. With its modern, clean design and immaculate grounds, beautifully equipped, with a spacious pool area and open-plan kitchen. The location is a dream: surrounded by olive trees and offering one of the most breathtaking sea views and sunsets I’ve experienced in Greece. It’s so peaceful that you can literally hear the bees buzzing in the flower bushes.
From the very first inquiry, everything was perfect. The villa itself is perfect for families, small groups or a couple who wants privacy.
I highly recommend the Villa and can’t wait to return. Best Regards, Kate
We spent 8 nights at this villa (family of 4 with 2 teenage boys) and had the most wonderful time! It's peaceful, comfortable, clean, the sea and mountain views are incredible from every bedroom, and the sunrise and sunsets are just stunning! The inside and outside areas are so well kept and it had everything that we needed. We arrived in the early hours of the morning and were particurly grateful for basic supplies of milk, coffee, bread, yogurt and fruit to have breakfast in the morning before finding the supermarket. Vasilis is a fantastic host - very friendly and reposnsive, we really enjoyed meeting him. He has put a lot of love and care into the villa which we felt instantly. The location is seculded, which we loved, and is in a great spot for exploring beaches to the West of the island and to the East of Chania. We adored everything about the Villa can't reccommend it enough. It is just like the pictures and more, and we hope to return again one day.
The host was incredibly kind and responsive, always checking in to make sure we were okay and had everything we needed. The place itself was very comfortable, making it easy to relax and feel at home. I truly appreciated the warm hospitality and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!
Everything you can imagine to have a perfect Greek gateway. The villas are made with great attention to details, all amenities are in perfect shape and the view is just stunning. If you need a calm, peaceful place to relax - the villas are perfect fit. Vasilis is also a great host, very attentive, kind always responding rapidly. I recommend this place.
The villa is perfectly equipped, we lacked nothing. The view from the terrace, from the pool and also from the rooms is beautiful - especially the sunsets.
There are great restaurants nearby that can be reached in a short time by car.
We would definitely book the villa again! :)
Nothing is missing. The calm and the sunsets are there, a real haven of peace.
The best thing about this house is also the extremely warm welcome from Vasilis, who responds very quickly and gives very good advice! I highly recommend it.
Peaceful and quiet place. Manicured landscaping. Breathtaking views. Beautiful house with all the amenities. The house is centrally located. Reasonable distance by road from all the most beautiful beaches to the east and the city of Chania. Vasilis was a remarkable host, very proactive, kind and available. I highly recommend the villa.
Perfectly clean, stylish and with great attention to detail. The location was good: we could enjoy sunrise and sunset directly from the villa – pure magic!
Everything was well maintained and well equipped. I can highly recommend this place and will definitely come back
The villa was clean, modern, and had a well-equipped kitchen that made us feel right at home. Vasilis was also incredibly welcoming and responsive, greeting us at check-in despite travel delays and addressing any questions in a timely manner. We had an amazing stay! Highly recommend!
This villa by Vasilis is an exceptional house, beautifully located, sparkling clean and very well equipped. Vasilis is an excellent host, very accommodating, always friendly and always responsive with very short response times- we stayed there for 1 week and enjoyed it a lot. We will be happy to return.
We are thrilled with the Villa and its host Vasilis. The location is simply wonderful: quiet, with a beautiful view and stunning sunsets. The house is equipped with everything necessary for a comfortable stay: comfortable beds and an excellent kitchen. Vasilis is a very caring and attentive host. He recommended great nearby locations and the best beach for family relaxation. We were also pleasantly surprised with traditional Cretan pastries and sweets. The host was very welcoming and always ready to help. We will definitely come back!
Modern, clean, exactly has pictured. Vasilis was quick to respond and welcoming. The property was a dream, quiet and surrounded by an olive grove with the most stunning views, straight out of a magazine. I cannot wait to go back again!
We spent 9 nights here with our family and it was just perfect. It is quiet but not too far away from restaurants and supermarkets. Sunrise and sunset are both spectacular from the pool area. The host Vasilis is super friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend this place to everyone who wants to visit the island of crete!
The villa is just great: Modern, spacious and luxurious. The view on the olive trees and the sea is breathtaking. Vasilis was one of the greatest host we ever experienced: Super friendly, fast in every response and helpful in finding restaurants and activities in the area. We felt great and it was hard to leave.
