Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Islands

Stunningly beautiful surroundings, tranquil and instantly relaxing. The house is very beautifully decorated, built to a high standard, impeccably clean and super charming! Dominic and Eirini are wonderful hosts. We booked our next stay already. For our fellow travelers: if you drive from Athens to Tyros there is halfway a small family run taverna in Nemea, called Danaos & Anastasis, which has very tasty food and most days has a BBQ with spit roast (especially delicious).

The place was great. Location was perfect for us: close to some true gems food wise, beaches, wineries, etc. We loved it. We stayed 1 week, so we truly got a chance to enjoy it. Was also able to yoga in the morning with a view on the olive trees. All the little attentions made us feel welcomed.

We only stayed one night, we wish we could have stayed longer. It’s a magical place in a peaceful village. Kaiti provides an incredible local guide - we were able to do a few of her recommended things during our quick stay.

Four of us, two couples, spent a very enjoyable week at Roula's stone cottage. A special and stunning location and suspect a rare opportunity to spend time in a traditional style house in a rural cretan mountain village. The cottage is very well equipped and comfortable. May be better suited to a family stay as the downstairs room has no separate access to bathroom. We enjoyed the peaceful location immensely- great to getup and have breakfast outside with the fresh air and distant sound of goat bells. We travelled to Chania or the beaches along the coast every day and certainly didn't find the village too remote to do so. Nearby Tavernas and gorge walk are a must. Roula, along with her mother, were always quick, helpful and generous when questions were asked and supplied us with eggs and oranges and some home cooked food. Surely one of the best hosts I've experienced on airbnb. Would gladly return.

Beautiful house with incredible view and wonderful hostess

Perfect location, amazing view from the terrace! We were sad to leave such an great place

So worrh the walk up the hill. We had minor questions upon arrival, but Dina answered promptly. We would stay again for sure

Very nice typical accommodation, well-equipped and clean. Impeccable WiFi. Two terraces with a magnificent view of Mirabello Bay. The accommodation is located in a small village on the edge of the mountain, very relaxing and quiet (which we were looking for). Within walking distance of a small typical restaurant. The location allows you to visit eastern Crete: the gorges of Christi, beaches such as Vai or Mochlos, Agios Nikolaos, Ierapetra (boat departures), etc. Walks are possible from the village. Our host had already given us a multitude of information in advance to prepare our stay. Special mention for the welcome: upon our arrival, our host had put tomatoes, cucumbers and feta in the fridge, so that we could prepare an excellent Cretan salad. There was even a bottle of chilled wine. In short, we would recommend it without hesitation.

Absolutely beautiful and stunning view. The entire unit is like a work of art. Everyone is so kind and the assistance with the bags was the perfect cherry on top. It’s a bit of a maze walking around the area around the air bnb, but with tons of sites to see and photos to take we didn’t mind it at all. Highly recommend this beautiful and stunning unit.

First of all, a big thanks to Maria and Alexander for their warm welcome. Starvos provided clear instructions, although we unfortunately didn't get to meet him. The place was perfect—extra clean and felt just like home. The apartment was even better than in the pictures. The location is ideal for a restful stay. The nearby restaurants offer delicious seafood, and the staff is very friendly. We hope to return soon.

This is a cute, comfortable bnb with a great view of Mykonos. The only negative would be the stairs to get to the residence. We knew about them bc we read the reviews but thought it would be worth it for the view and it was. The views are beautiful. There is a cute patio which is great for sitting out on with some wine and cheese to enjoy. The residence is in a quiet area away from the busy Mykonos town which is a plus. The residence was fully equipped and Angelina was very sweet and responsive. Would recommend.

We loved our stay in this gorgeous little place. Perfect location walkable to the port with plenty of great restaurants and beautiful swimming spots close by.

Can’t thank Theo amd Parthenia enough for all their help recommendations and flexibility . The apartment is very well equipped , really felt at home . Incredible views , despite being above all the restaurants , the rooms are well sound proofed and there was no noise at all .. Will definitely be back to visit again .. had a wonderful stay and holiday ❤️

Such an amazing stay at this Airbnb. The apartment is as exactly as described with breathtaking views. Panos is a fantastic host and was always so responsive when we had questions. He gave recommendations on some great restaurants and lounges. Our stay was exactly what we wanted it to be. We will definitely come back to one of Panos’s places for our next trip back to Greece.

We had a great stay at the BoHo Beach house! We are really glad that we added an additional night to our original reservation, the apartment was amazing to come back to after a day of hiking and seeing the sites. The beach right in front of the apartment is peaceful, clean, and really hits the spot after a warm day filled with activity. The Boho Beach House is clean, very comfortable, and very nicely decorated. Would definitely recommend!

Akis is a genuine super host. Nice place with good equipment, I would give one less star to the small details of cleanliness, but the basics were all perfect. We'll be comfortable again.

We stayed in this high-quality villa for nine nights and enjoyed our time there very much. The brand new house is modernly decorated and very clean. Large rooms, a terrace with great sea views and lots of peace. You are completely private on the hill and can enjoy the tranquility. Surrounded by many olive trees, you live practically in the middle of nature. Only the access to the house takes some getting used to for the normal road driver, as it goes quite steeply uphill from the sea to the property. But since there is practically no traffic, you can drive up and down very relaxed and slowly. There are fantastic beaches in the area (most with stones) and Kalamata itself is about a 1/2 hour drive away. So if you are looking for peace and quiet and want to vacation in a modern house with plenty of space, this property is highly recommended.

We absolutely loved our time at George's house, we cannot recommend this place enough. Communication with George was seamless and he met us at the house when we arrived. The house itself is beautiful with incredible views of the ocean. It is spotless and tastefully decorated with literally every amenity and implement you could need. We were taken aback by how much George had provided for us in the way of food and drink - the fridge and pantry was fully stocked with groceries, fruit, pantry essentials, wine, bread etc etc. He was so generous. During our trip, the house was professionally cleaned twice, which was so appreciated. The location of the house is one of the best things about it. A 5 minute walk down to a lovely, quiet pebbly beach or a 15 minute walk to an idyllic sandy beach with a delicious restaurant on one side and a cafe on the other. It's also very close to drive to other beaches and shops etc. Absolutely loved it. Stay here!

We had a wonderful, peaceful & relaxing week in this beautiful house. Amazing location, stylish, spacious, comfortable & very well-equipped. It’s 3 minutes from the small town of Sellia (3 or 4 nice traditional restaurants & small but useful supermarket), 10 minutes from the bigger (seaside town) of Plakias (many restaurants, 2 big supermarkets, butcher & baker), yet out on its own: utterly quiet & private and with beautiful, uninterrupted views of the sea. Cordula - who created this fabulous place, from ground up & with incredible attention to detail, is a perfect host. She couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful: at all stages proactive, quick & very clear communication and always concerned about our convenience & comfort. Our flight time meant we didn’t arrive until 8pm & Cordula offered to order & collect food from one of the excellent local restaurants & keep it warm in the oven, so after a long & tiring journey our holiday started straightaway. We would love to return.

This place is absolutely amazing. My wife and I spent our honeymoon at Aikaterinis apartment and we were completely satisfied. The inside provides everything what we needed. The description was absolutely accurate. The fridge is very spacious and there is a freezer as well. We cooked quite a lot therefore this was very helpful for us. The pool outside is very clean and also the temperature was perfect for the hot days in Greece. You can really relax at this place because there is not a lot of tourism at this area on Crete. Also the beach in front of the house is quite nice. We put our hammock under some trees and were watching the sunrise over Paleochora. I can totally recommend this apartment, especially for couples who want some relaxing time and together.

We enjoyed a memorable time at Nikolao’s house. We very much appreciated the comfort of the house, the view, and the direct access to the beach. We also appreciated that the house was very well equipped and the kind welcome gestures. Definitely recommended!

As soon as you walk through the gate, you enter an oasis of peace! Well-maintained garden with several places to sit. Beautiful swimming pool, elevated so little ones don't just walk in. the house itself is fine, spacious and everything is present. George's parents took care of the reception and departure and that was fine (including reception with homemade cookies and of course Raki) Thank you and if we are in Crete next time we will definitely go back here!

We had the most amazing stay at the villa, it was beautiful, private, clean, and just the perfect place for a getaway. The villa was equipped with everything we needed and more… including BIDETS! Aegli went above and beyond to help us with whatever we needed. Thank you so much, Aegli. Would give this place 10/5 stars if we could. We will definitely be back!!

the place was very beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing. we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and exploring the surrounding areas and culture. thank you
