We had a wonderful week! The hosts, Mr. and Mrs. Vaggelis were adorable and full of thoughtful touches. They were responsive and always available and attentive, making sure we didn't miss anything. Tina, who welcomed us on the first day was also very attentive and very caring to us! As for the villa, it was perfect in every way! The listing photos match reality! I would even say it was beyond what was stated! The impeccable cleanliness, the services offered, the decoration and design of the house, not to mention this incredible view of the sea and the island of Spinalonga. I recommend these hosts and this villa! Go there without a second thought! you won't be disappointed! Thanks again š

A fantastic villa with a wonderful host. Emmanouil was great from booking, with a few questions we had before we arrived, to check in, during our stay and also for checking out. So pleasant and helpful. The Villa was really clean and modern, well furnished and had everything we needed. We would definitely recommend this villa!

We really enjoyed our stay in ThomaisĀ“resort. Thomais did everything to make us feel welcome and welcomed us with homemade cooking and wine. Located on the mountain top the distance to shopping and restaurants is several kilometers, but excellent taxi service solved this so we dropped our plans to rent a car.

We had the best time! Maria was so friendly and everything was perfect. We were even invited to eat dinner with them and had a blast. We were 14 people and we had plent of space for us all.

Villa in Agia Pelagia
5 out of 5 average rating, 24 reviewsMama la Roosa Luxury Retreat
Our stay at Mama La Roosa Villa was a dream. Petros was an outstanding host who went above and beyond to ensure that we had a relaxing stay in Agia Pelagia. The villa was stunning - it had gorgeous ocean views from every angle, beautiful landscaping, and a modern design with every amenity needed for our trip. The villa felt quiet, private, and safe. We enjoyed watching the sunrise each morning. We enjoyed the pool and backyard dining area so much that we decided to skip the beach! The warm hospitality from Petros is what made the stay - he arranged reservations at the best local restaurants and wineries. We felt that we were able to truly experience Greece thanks to our stay with Petros at Mama La Roosa Villa. We wish we could stay longer and canāt wait to return. Thank you Petros for an unforgettable experience!
Villa in Vathianos Kampos
4.9 out of 5 average rating, 10 reviewsFamily Villa Bella Elena with Heated Pool
The villa was excellent! We enjoyed a wonderful stay here in the glorious secluded Cretan mountains. Some things we thought were excellent: -very spacious master bedrooms -excellent pool area, bar and outdoor dining area, including barbecue -incredible views over the sea -great parking -felt very secure Some things we thought could be better: -some minor things broken (like door handles and windows), but we did stay at the end of the season and imagine they will be fixed before the next peak period -slippy floors that could be dangerous when wet -water pressure in the upstairs showers wasnāt great -kitchen is on the small side Also the villa manager Dimitris was very hospitable, responsive and friendly. And there was also a lovely cat that befriended us (we called her Lesley) who we all took a shine to. All in all we really enjoyed our time at Villa Bella Elena and would recommend it highly to large groups or families.
Villa in Sisi
5 out of 5 average rating, 8 reviewsSissi Lux Omega Villa Private Pool
Very nice and clean accommodation, everything you need. We were greeted in a very friendly manner and immediately got many Greek delicacies such as wine and olives. BBQ and pool have always been cleaned. We got a lot of tips for the area and Anastasia was always available. All in all highly recommended.
Villa in Anapilsi Hersonissos
5 out of 5 average rating, 60 reviewsMare Beach Villa
We had an incredible stay at Antoniosās villa and canāt recommend it enough. The villa is even better than the pictures and with the beach across the road was the perfect location for all of us. Plenty of restaurants and things to do within walking distance. Antonios is one of the most welcoming host weāve had on Airbnb and made us feel right at home on arrival. He couldnāt do enough for us during our stay and had some great recommendations. We will definitely be back!
Villa in Vathianos Kampos
5 out of 5 average rating, 21 reviewsKYMO Instyle Villa - Sea view Private pool Jacuzzi
Villa Kymo exceeded our expectations. We had a great time, thanks to Michaela and especially her mother Eva. The villa has everything you need for a wonderful holiday: a large heated pool, a spacious terrace with a magnificent view of the sea and a cozy barbecue area where you can spend the evening over dinner. We really want to go back there again.
Villa in Gazi
4.88 out of 5 average rating, 16 reviewsVilla Mirtylla luxury retreat w Pool, BBQ and Gym
Giorgos was a great host. Flexible with our demands and very responsive whenever we had any issues. For example, we had a hot water problem, which he resolved quickly after we informed him. The villa is very beautiful with a 360 view of Heraklion and the surrounding area. It has a great living room space for social gatherings, outside tables for dining and a grill. The kitchen was also well equipped with a large fridge+freezer, dish washer, microwave oven and gas hobs. The gym was well equipped and the swimming pool water was very clean. There was a washing machine with a lot of drying space. Several of the rooms have private bathrooms. The villa was not easily reachable by foot but that is the case for most places on Crete. It had however plenty of parking space and remotely operated gates. We didn't try the jacuzzi so can't comment on that and the piano was locked. Overall our stay was amazing, we're very happy and would recommend Giorgos as a host :)

This was an absolutely gorgeous property. It was spacious, well-maintained, and offered beautiful views of the Aegean Sea. The pool and garden are beautiful.

Villa in ĪĪæĻĻĪ½ĪµĻ
4.91 out of 5 average rating, 75 reviewsLuxury Villa with Private pool next to sandy beach
The pictures donāt do this view justice. Itās breathtaking! The home is gorgeous and the outdoor space is wonderful. It was too cold for us to swim but we still enjoyed time at the beach. Most of the immediate area was already shut down for the season during our stay but there is a lovely area about a mile walk away. We spent a lot of time there enjoying the coffee shops and restaurants. The house and rooms were fantastic and there was more than enough space for everyone to relax. The host was amazing and went above and beyond to help us when we left some glasses at a restaurant. Thank you so much for a great stay!!
Villa in Analipsi
5 out of 5 average rating, 18 reviewsSardines Luxury Villa 2-Private Heated Pool,garden
One of the best places ever stayed! The villa is just 20 mins car ride from Heraklion airport and is very easy to find. The villa is exactly as shown in pictures; very clean and with all the kitchen amenities for cooking your meals as well as air-condition and TV in every room. The garden & pool areas is just beatiful and the puff sun loungers were great for our relaxing evenings by the pool (max 1.30m deep). The two bathrooms are spacious. The hosts have filled the fridge with breakfast, drinks and healthy snacks for us and there was house cleaning after 3 days of stay. The villa is secluded - so you can really disconnect and there is enough space for family / couple / group of friends as well as parking space for at least 2 cars; lastly, the villa is in walkable distance (8mins) to Analipsi village city center, the beach promenade and couple of restaurants, pharmacy and supermarkets. Host arranged for us a great van drive to airport on fair price. I will definitely stay there again!
Villa in Rousa Limni
4.92 out of 5 average rating, 13 reviewsVilla Odyssia

Villa in Hersonissos
5 out of 5 average rating, 5 reviewsVilla Capri
We had an amazing time in Villa Capri. It was absolutely spotless and had everything we could possibly need. We stayed here with 3 of our children and the villa and pool was very well maintained and safe for them. The location was fantastic. You walk out of the villa and straight into the village square, which is beautiful with lovely restaurants, bars and bakeries. Really hope to return one day. Thanks again Jackie, Rae and Jason
Villa in Malia
5 out of 5 average rating, 4 reviewsVilla Verde with infinity pool!!
Check-in and check-out was super easy. Our host was very accommodating. There was a nice and delicious host gift to get in. When the vacuum cleaner was broken, he picked it up and brought it back a few days later. The villa is slightly elevated overlooking the infinity pool, associated olive grove and Malia. The view is gorgeous. You are lonely (except for the crickets), but still within 10 minutes walking in the city, where there are a bakery with delicious cakes and baguette / croissants in addition to several supermarkets, lots of restaurants, right by the church. The house is equipped with everything you could need. It is nicely decorated, with decoration, many pictures and books (also which in German). There is a foosball that we liked to use. The pool is gorgeous, about 1.40 m deep (our son is 1.44 m tall and was able to hold your head over water on your toes. The pool may be 6m x 3.50m. It's just appreciated. He was enough for us. It is nice that often despite the 30 - 32 degrees Celsius a light wind went, so it was a lot of fun to stay in and around the pool. We were able to park our rental car under a carob tree on the property, so that it was always in the shade. We highly recommend staying at Villa Verde.
