Villa Design | Rooftop Pool
We loved the calmness of the villa and the people were very friendly .The villa was very clean and beautifully decorated ,we would really love to visit again ,Thank you for sharing such a wonderful place close to very good Restuartant’s See you again Marie

Apithano (with heated pool)
The home was beautiful and rustic. The pool area is an outdoor oasis with views of the sea and olive groves galore. Finding the home was a little tricky, but the neighborhood felt safe. There were a few restaurants within short driving distance. Nikolaos's was very kind and gave us lots of tips on nearby things to do and restaurants. I loved hearing about how the property had been in his family for many generations. You can tell he takes pride and great care for the home.

Phy~Sea Villa
Really enjoyed our stay at Phy-Sea villa! Marianna was a great host who greeted us with a tray of fruit and cheese upon checking in and provided us with several wonderful dining and activity recommendations. The place itself is peaceful and close to Chania while feeling like you are getting away. Though there are many beaches close by, we also liked having our own pool. Looking forward to coming back!

NEW VILLA EOS beach front
This house was absolutely amazing – just like in the pictures, if not even better! The location right by the beach is truly breathtaking, and we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful setting. All the furniture and appliances are top-of-the-line – everything was spotless, high-quality, and incredibly comfortable. Ria was a fantastic host – super friendly, always quick to respond, and very helpful. We really appreciated how kind and welcoming she was. We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay and would recommend this house to absolutely everyone. A perfect getaway!

Casa Nougia
Absolutely perfect! Brilliant property and brilliant host. Despina was so lovely, gave us great recommendations and she even left us some food in the fridge for breakfast because of our late flight. She also brought us homemade wine and honey. Property even better than the pictures! Best holiday ever! Thank you!

Fivi Luxury Villa, with Heated Pool & SeaViews
We had an excellent stay at this Villa. Exactly as described and how it looks in the photos. Villa finished to a really high standard and lovely swimming pool. The villa is also nicely equipped & sone really nice touches from the host, Katerina, with locally grown vegetables & olive oil. Katerina went above and beyond as a host with regular cleaning & towels changes etc and was very supportive when our daughter was involved in an accident (not at the villa!) Would definitely recommend and go back 👍

Villa Anasa - A summer breath
Villa anasa exceeded expectations. The pictures don't do it justice, the attention to detail in the interior is impressive. We had a lovely stay and would highly recommend. Gorgios was a gracious host and helpful in every way possible.

Villa The Pines- Private Pool - Near The Beach
Amazing stay! The house was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed – a lovely pool, a fun game room, and a peaceful location. Great for families! The hosts were kind and responsive. We’d love to come back!

KOU KOU House, Kampos, Kissamos, Elafonisi, Chania
What a lovely quiet and relaxed stay we had in kampos. The house has everything we needed and the view was amazing with fantastic sunsets. Thank you Sofia for your warm welcome and good local recommendations. We would love to come back again 😀

Casa Polymnia / Stone-built house in Topolia
Many wonderful things to say about Casa Polymnia. Quaintly situated in the small town of Topolia, this mountain getaway was perfect for our first time spent in Crete. The accommodations were beautiful and very comfortable. Amazing skyline views, a well stocked kitchen, stone bedroom, and courtyard! Easy parking in town. You’ll find amazing walkable restaurants ran by kind hosts whom will offer you raki with every meal :) We loved the food. The neighbors and locals showed us exceptionally warm hospitality. Casa Polymnia was peaceful respite for reading, writing, and relaxation. Don’t forget to check out the Agia Sofia cave located just south, and the Workshop Tsouris located just north. As well as any nearby beaches. Konstantina was highly responsive, super informative, and very helpful with local recommendations. Thank you 🙏

STAIRS HOMES & SUITES
We had a lovely stay at Nikos’ place in Rodovani. It’s well off the beaten path and we particularly enjoyed the tranquil setting in a small mountain village on the south coast. Nikos greeted us although we arrived well after midnight. There is a lovely village store right across the town square and good tavernas close by. Plenty of hiking options around and the sea only 15 min away. The house is renovated tastefully and we particularly enjoyed the big terrace overlooking the valley and mountains.

Stone Villa in Rokka, Kissamos, Chania
Absolutely beautiful place, we loved it! The outdoor areas and views are amazing! Lefteris was extremely kind and helpful, shared a lot of great recommendations with us! We’d come back in a heartbeat

Vigla Apartments No.1
This is the best house we booked on Airbnb. So beautiful, super well equipped, peaceful. Great shower. Fantastic views. Theodosia was great and Michalis, the owner, received us with a big smile, raki and local products. Such a wonderful guy. It's a family run house. They also gave us a farewell gift, typical Cretan food prepared by Michalis mom. Also, a minute away from the house there is a rustic bar on top of the mountain with a view to the ocean called Petroula, named after a donkey which walks freely inside the bar! You can have an ice cold beer and watch the sunset and play with the beautiful dogs and puppies. Totally recommended with eyes closed!

Luxury TreeHouse - A breath away from the beach
Uniquely beautiful, charming tiny house, wonderfully located between carob and olive trees, beautiful terrace with plenty of shade and seating and lounging options (as described and shown in the photos). The very friendly landlords live in the immediate vicinity (see photo 3). Thanks also to the very nice service staff Vicky, who changed the laundry in between! The proximity to Loutraki Bay is fantastic, the water there is crystal clear and wonderful for swimming. Interesting for future guests: the tavern praised in other reviews is currently (June 2025) closed, very close to an air force base, so occasionally jet planes fly - even at night. Overall recommended!
Private house rentals

Effrosini Panorama View
We had a nice time, the accommodation is wonderful and as described. We felt very comfortable. It has a private garden and a terrace with a view for private use. Both were very great. Overall a great accommodation, we lacked nothing. Communication with Michalis also worked out great. We tried the tips, and we went to the tavern near the accommodation several times. We would come back anytime.

Bungalow in nature, 10’ from Chania old town.
Eleftherios is a very likeable, helpful and great host! The small house is usually well shaded in the middle of an olive grove. You can pick mulberries from the terrace, a little further there are fresh oranges and lemons. The accommodation is not only beautiful, but also very well thought out. In addition to the good insulation, in which a short use of the air conditioning also cools, the fly screen in front of the large bedroom window, the Bluetooth box, the large terrace with a beautiful view of the olive grove, it is the small, well-considered things that simply give pleasure. Starting with sharp, small knives, mosquito repellent, coffee, detergent, good shower gel, orange press, good cooking utensils... We will be back, no question!

Beautiful renovated villa in Aptera
We had a wonderful stay in Aptera. The location was perfect; close to Chania and an easy drive to other locations in western Crete but still rural, quiet, and private. There's an incredible view of the mountains right out of the front door. Mihalis was really friendly and gave us many local recommendations. We highly recommend a stay here!

A beautiful location. We would go back again in a heartbeat.

Fiorella Sea View Pool Villa, Kalyves, Chania
A place to stay with a truly breathtaking view. We felt very comfortable. Our two-year-old son also found his way around very well and played with us at the pool, but of course you should always keep an eye on him. Overall, the accommodation looks much more spacious than in the photos and is well equipped. We didn't miss anything. There are even dumbbells for sports and chairs and umbrella for the beach and a potty for children. Communication with Eleni went very well. She always reacted quickly and made everything possible. We will be happy to come back.

House Asterias - At home by the sea
A very nice place to stay. Everything was even more beautiful than in the pictures. The well-equipped kitchen, the large living room and the large terrace with the magnificent view make the stay unique. The contact with Brigitta was very pleasant. Many small details in the house show a very committed and loving hospitality. We felt very comfortable and would be happy to come back. There is a stone beach in Sfinari. For us, the 20 minutes by car to the dream beach in Falasarna were no problem.

Ble 1BR Vacation Home & Terrace
We have stayed in many Airbnb, but this one really stood out. Tassos and his wife were really helpful and caring without being intrusive. They gave us great recommendations and we went to all of them and had a great time and ate amazing food. Even when we left the area, and I texted Tassos, he gave us advice for the area we were in. The place was spotless and they had everything you could need. The terrace was a dream. Beautiful view of the mountains in the day and the stars at night. Also very private. Amazing place. We will be back

Kedria Lounge and infinity sea view residence
Great hosts and a great location. They always went above and beyond. Highly recommend!
