Smoking friendly holiday rentals in Stalida

I can’t say that enough about Nikoloaos and his wife as hosts! They were so incredibly kind and responsive. They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was enjoyable and fun. By far the best Airbnb hosts I’ve encountered in my travels. I would very highly recommend a stay at this Airbnb. If you don’t, you’re missing out!

My husband and I spent a lovely week at Asteri Home. The house was exactly as expected and just what we wanted for our week in Crete. The kitchen was well-equipped and allowed us to make breakfasts and a some dinners at home. The main double bedroom was big enough and comfortable. The bathroom is a bit dark and the shower is quite small, but we made do. The most amazing part of the house is the huge garden overlooking the sea that has 4 sun loungers, 2 outdoor tables for dining, a BBQ and a dart board. We spent a lot of time sitting at the end of the garden enjoying the view. Véronique and Yiannis are amazing hosts. They were so helpful right from the start - arranging transport from the airport, a rental car, offering suggestions for restaurants and places to visit. Kokkini Hani is quieter than other more touristy parts of Crete we visited. We found wonderful Greek restaurants with fresh seafood everyday. The supermarket and shops are all in walking distance. A lovely place!

We came to visit Crete as a couple, and we were delighted to stay in this lovely cocoon. The accommodation was perfectly clean, the interior architecture very successful, and Alexandros was great. We recommend 🤩

Great place to stay with a lovely view. Very well stocked apartment! We had a great time and Agelos was really understanding and accommodating with our flight being delayed.

The apartment is cozy but was still big enough for the two of us =) Very nicely furnished and there was everything you could ever need. The location is perfect, lots of options for shopping or dining out. The pool is right next to the apartment. Absolute secret place. The beach is also only a 5-minute walk. We can recommend the BeachBar Heaven, which really offers you everything We will be happy to come back! Thanks for everything

Had a great time here! Vasilis was very accommodating and the place came as expected. Clean, great views of the water, and centrally located to the shops and restaurants in town. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed our stay at Manolis house! He is very kind and gave us helpful advices for traveling by bus and restaurants. There are plenty of beaches around the area and many nice restaurants with seaview. The supermarket nearby is good sorted and don't forget to leave food for the cats!

We spent 5 days in Cora's beautiful accommodation and can recommend it 100%. Everything looks exactly like the photos, very tasteful, clean and cozy. From the balcony you have a wonderful view of the valley, directly behind the house the hike through the Kritsa gorge begins and the village itself is charming and has all sorts of things (arts and crafts) to offer. During our stay, we had two concerns that we addressed with Cora. She was immediately available, super friendly and helpful. We will be happy to come back.

Magdalena and her husband Marinos were extremely kind. They picked us up from the airport after our flight was delayed over 11hrs. They made us feel right at home and the fridge was stocked with an assortment of drinks, bread, meat & cheese. The place is very spacious and comfortable. Used the washer and air dried our clothes no problem. One of the bathrooms has a huge assortment of different products to use that were great. If we asked a question, it was answered right away. Feel like we have made life long friends here. So much hospitality! Would highly recommend this place.

The is a family house, simple, pleasent and authentic. The natural surroundings are amazing. The silence is incredible. Meni and Andreas, the owners, are very nice people and we felt the love they invested in every detail. Thanks 🙏

Linda is a very helpful, generous and friendly landlady. Communication was always quick and helpful. The apartment is exactly as described and perfectly located for trips to Heraklion, the Lassithi Plateau or the beach. We felt very comfortable and can highly recommend the accommodation.

Very nice place to stay with all amenities available. Lovely garden and sitting room

Amazing location with an outstanding view. The house was perfect for day trips all across Crete! The swimming pool and outside space was amazing after long days out sight seeing. Would definitely recommend this house, the host was welcoming and very knowledgable about the area and helped us with places to visit.

Our time here was absolutely perfect! I navigated a bit wrong but thanks to the amazing responsiveness of the host we were quickly rescued! The proximity to the ocean is amazing, the garden STUNNING, the pool was pristine! I absolutely hope to come back here in the future!!

We enjoyed our stay! Location was great for getting to and from the airport and ferry port. Manos left helpful restaurant recommendations in the area, and even homemade cookies from his father. The space was great and I would recommend!

May 2025, 10 nights stay for three (2 adults, 1 toddler). Villa is really fantastic. Beautiful view of the sea and the bay. It offers plenty of space for more people (2 couples, 4-6 friends, 2 families) and for longer stays (storage space, cupboards and shelves, etc.). The furnishings correspond to the description and offer, even in the kitchen, everything you need. Our highlight was the covered terrace. Our flight was moved up at short notice. A significantly earlier check-in was no problem at all in our case. Stelios is a very friendly, helpful and dedicated host. We recommend him and his villa without reservation. Small restriction: the accommodation is a bit off the beaten track or the region is a bit scattered (mainly due to the geography of the terrain). Without your own car, it will be a bit difficult in our opinion. However, there is a free parking space directly at the house.

Nice apartment, clean and spacious. Only five minutes on foot from the city centre! Julia is a fabulous host!

the place was very nice and Maria was very hospitable. Her mom gave us delicious homemade cookies. The house looked as if someone is still living there. there were personal photos and what seemed like personal items. looked a lot like a "home". We had a lovely time. thank you Maria.

The studio with sea view is located a few meters from a beautiful bay. I was lovingly greeted with fresh fruit, snacks and welcome drinks. Thanks to the self check-in via key box, everything was very straightforward and flexible. Popi was always available for answers to my questions. The apartment was very clean and everything necessary was available. Next door is a small mini-market run by the very hospitable Dimitri. The location is perfect for switching off. If you want to leave the small town to explore the surrounding villages, it makes sense to travel by car. I was able to reach Made easily by bus from Heraklion.

Staying in La Casita by Kleoniki was the best choice I could have made! The accomodation is very beautiful, clean, inspiring, has a lot of suggestive elements and It makes you feel at home from the first minutes! In addition, I really appreciated finding welcome food and drinks! The access street is very calm, and it is a crossroads of a main road, which have all the services you may need. It Is located less than 10 minutes walking from the port and less than 15 from Morosini Plaza. I really would recommend La Casita to everyone! Thank you Kleoniki, hope to come back soon!

Sofia and her dad Giorgos were great hosts, from meeting, explaining and taking the time to make great recommendations to checking in often, very much appreciated! We loved Iraklio (and Heraklion) and the flat had what the 4 of us needed to enjoy our stay. We spent our mornings and evenings on the decks and loved eating outside and drinking beverages. The recommendation for the Peskesi farm to table restaurant was spot on! The restaurant/cafes options in walking distance of the flat are plentiful and every place we tried was good. We walked everywhere, and took a city bus to the wonderful beach by the airport and the ferry excursion to Santorini one day. The archaeological museum is a stand out, and the history museum and Venetian Fortress were also great sites. Ended up skipping Knossos as the artifacts found were in the archaeological museum, so no opinion on that. We shall return to Crete some time and when staying in the area would gladly book with Sofia!

This was one of the nicest places we have stayed. Could not recommend it more. Lovely people.

We thank Kallia very much and we asked her husband for something and we had it in five minutes. He also helped us with something we were looking for in the area. In general, both are very friendly. Very clean and beautiful space. I highly recommend it. Thank you again Rania-Akis

the house matches the listing, indeed in reality it is even more spacious, beautiful outdoor spaces on the front and back, cool in the evening there is no need for air conditioning. the location is convenient to the main road that crosses Crete and Heraklion, but remains out of the chaos of the city in a super quiet location. despite not having met the host it is as if he had been there with us, on our arrival we found to welcome us walnuts and honey, typical sweets, chocolate, jam, fruit, beer, wine, raki and water. really a warm welcome. the house has everything you could need. the thought found on the stairs the last day completed an already beautiful experience. I therefore recommend the accommodation to anyone who wants to have a quiet base in Crete.
