Villa Chara 3 bedroom unique design Villa
Es war absolut perfekt. Wir hatten schon vor der Ankunft per What s app kontakt, so war es überhaupt kein Problem in die Unterkunft zu kommen. Das Haus ist ein Traum, vom Flughafen in 25 Minuten zu erreichen, die nächste Taverne ist 5 Minuten weg und sehr zu empfehlen. Alles Tip Top sauber, es wurde sogar einmal während unseres Aufenthaltes durchgewischt und neue Handtücher gabs auch. Es ist alles da was man braucht, sogar eine Grundausstattung an Lebensmittel, es wäre der erste Hunger gestillt. Es gibt absolut nichts negatives zu berichten, wir würden sehr gerne wieder kommen.

Askianos II Lux Villa - The Ultimate Elegant Oasis
Voor wie rust zoekt en wil onthaasten is dit de ideale bestemming! Midden in de mooie Kretenzische natuur, en toch dichtbij het leuke hippie-stadje Matala, maar ook op rijafstand van de bergen en andere mooie locaties. Wie het stijle weggetje omhoog naar de accommodatie trotseert, wordt beloond met een geweldig uitzicht op de bergen en de zee. Kitsa was de ideale gastvrouw bij wie we altijd terecht konden. Ook voor een langer verblijf is dit huis prima: Kitsa bood extra services aan zoals verse lakens, handdoeken, een extra poetsmoment en onderhoud van het zwembad. In volle zomer zal het fijn vertoeven zijn aan de rand van en in het water, maar begin april is het nog iets te koud. Extraatje: er waren fijne lokale welkomstlekkernijen. We hebben kunnen genieten van de goed uitgeruste woning, het prachtige terras, de schaapjes in de verte, de mooie zonsondergangen en vooral de rust! Een echte aanrader in het zuiden van Kreta!

Omnia Villa I - Heated* pool & stunning seaview!
Wonderful Stay. House is pristine- clean, comfortable and well equipped. Host is also warm and welcoming. Great views of the port and the sea and only a short drive to Chania. Driving instructions provided by host were clear and the place was easy to find. Don't hesitate to book and enjoy!

Amazing Seaview at Villa w/Private Pool near Beach
Absolutely amazing place. The view is breathtaking, you can’t get enough of it and there are two large terraces to enjoy it from. The swimming pool is a nice touch too, small but the same time big enough to cool down and sunbathe next to it if you don’t feel like going to the beach. Super easy and friendly interactions with Manos and the rest of the team. Warm welcome and attention all the way through the stay. There were a lot of little, but important details that we really appreciated, such as: bottled water, some juices and fruits that were waiting for us in the fridge, as well as some local snacks and olive oil. On my birthday, a lovely greeting card and a bottle of Ouzo appeared in our villa which was also an unexpected but an excellent gesture. Everyone was really friendly and we felt truly welcomed. Many thanks to all! Although it’s only 3.5 km away from The center of Plakias, I’d definitely recommend hiring a car, as the villa is up on the hill, hence the stunning view.

Luxury Villa w BBQ, Pool & Steps to the Beach
Wow—what an incredible Airbnb experience! Our stay in this stunning, modern, and fully equipped home was absolutely perfect. Eleni and George were amazing hosts, making everything even more special.

PhantΩm Villas, Villa Kateena (heated pool)
Atemberaubende Aussicht! Das Haus ist nagelneu, es entspricht genau den abgebildeten Bildern. Der Pool ist sehr groß & tagsüber gibt es einen perfekten Mix aus sonnigen und schattigen Plätzen. In der Nähe gibt es viele kleine Tavernen, man musste nie weit fahren. Ganz klare Empfehlung für diese Villa, sie ist perfekt & wir würden jederzeit liebend gerne wiederkommen!

Vertigo Stone Villa with private pool
The house has been fully redecorated to a high modern day standard. It's spacious and very private, also thanks to the walled inner garden with swimming pool, and possibilities to park two cars behind an electronically operated gate. The house is clean and the beds very comfortable. Also ideal when traveling with two couples of which one has children, because one bedroom has a separate front door that is accessible from the garden (under the roof top terrace). A very nice local restaurant and a supermarket are within walking distance. I highly recommend staying here!

Villa Castellum with hammam and free heated pool
Heerlijke villa die onze verwachtingen volledig overtrof. We logeerden hier met 2 gezinnen (4 volwassenen en 4 kinderen). We werden ontvangen door een super enthousiaste host die alles duidelijk uitlegde en ons verwelkomde met enkele typische Griekse streekproducten. Het huis is voorzien van alle comfort. Grote slaapkamers met elks hun eigen badkamer én hammam. Ruime keuken voorzien van alle nodige keukentoestellen (inclusief prof. koffiemachine) De kers op de taart was de mooie buitenruimte met (verwarmd) zwembad, zithoek, eethoek, bbq en uitzicht op de baai van Agia Galini en omgeving. We verbleven hier aan het begin van de lente en we waren zeer blij met onze beslissing te opteren voor een huis waarbij het zwembad werd verwarmd. Vanuit deze locatie maakten we een uitstap naar Matala en het palmstrand van Preveli. We hadden misschien nog meer kunnen doen, maar kregen de kinderen niet uit het zwembad 😁. Voor iedereen die nog twijfelt: niet doen, gewoon boeken!

Seafront 5 Bedroom Villa With Pool, Sauna
A Slice of Paradise – Five Stars All Around! We had the most incredible time staying at this large and stunning villa in the Loutraki/Chania area. The property is nothing short of breathtaking, with lush, beautifully maintained gardens and crystal-clear water right at your doorstep. The direct beach access was a dream—so easy and convenient—and we spent countless hours floating in the calm sea and enjoying the serene, quiet atmosphere. The views from every direction were spectacular, making it hard to leave the villa! The villa itself is exquisite, with a spacious, well-designed area for cooking and relaxing. It’s the perfect blend of luxury and comfort. Demetrios, our host, went above and beyond, offering incredible hospitality and even surprising me with a birthday cake, which made our stay all the more special. If you’re looking for a tranquil, beautiful retreat this is the place!

Villa Rodea
Wir waren acht Frauen, die eine Woche in der Villa Rodea verbracht haben. Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit, der Ausblick ist wundervoll und wir hatten eine unkomplizierte Betreuung durch das Komos-Team. Wir kommen wieder.

Nostos Villa, 50m2 pool, 2km from the beach!
3 weken genoten van het huis, zwembad en rustige omgeving. Iedere week werd het beddengoed/handdoeken vernieuwd en schoongemaakt. Razend snelle reactie van het hello crete team. Ook buiten kantoortijden

Villa Celestia - Infinity Pool & Amazing Sea View
Memorable stay at Villa Celestia. We needed a quiet and relaxing break for our family and the villa exceeded all our expectations. Wonderful with a fantastic view, the villa is thoughtfully designed with a well catered for kitchen and dining areas inside and out. Although it was April, we managed to enjoy the pool, and relaxing on the loungers, which was framed by the gorgeous view of the bay. We easily travelled around the north and central parts of the island, and followed a few of stamatis’ recommendations - thank you! We even rented a car via his company Eurocars, which was very good. A truly memorable stay in Crete. Wholeheartedly recommend!

Aegean Sunset Villas & Spa 'Villa Sea'
Wir haben eine wundervolle Woche in dieser schönen Villa verbracht! Das Haus entspricht wirklich den Fotos im Inserat und wir haben uns gleich wohlgefühlt. Savas und Maria sind sehr herzliche Gastgeber, die immer schnell erreichbar waren und uns sehr viele Ausflugstipps und Tipps für Tavernen gegeben haben. Man kann einiges in der Gegend unternehmen oder auch einfach am Pool die schöne Aussicht geniessen! 🔆🏖️

Rethymnian Gem Luxury Villa
The name says it all. It was, in fact, a gem. A total gem. Gorgeous house, gorgeous pool, rooms were all great, great views, I can go on and on. Rafael was the man. The bomb. The guru. Let him recommend what to do and where to go and do what he says. His food recommendations, destination recommendations, l insights, helpfulness - all were spot on. We had a couple small pre-season kinks that needed to be ironed out but they did them instantaneously. One phone call and voila. Theo was so helpful in the lead-up as well. He helped organize things and even helped order legs of lamb for us to cook on Easter. He was great. So the place is 15 minutes from old town Rethymno and I wouldn’t want it any other way. I am writing this from old town where I am spending the next 2 days and I already miss being at that house. It was perfectly situated. Close enough to the hustle, but far enough away to decompress. It’s absolutely perfect. Thank you all for such a magnificent wedding week!

Near to Chania City & Beach / Private Heated Pool
Amazing stay! Views from the mountainside are incredible to wake up to every morning including sunrise and sunset. The view from the infinity pool was fantastic and had toys for children. The host Mr. George was always accommodating and even brought us eggs one morning :) would highly recommend

Villa Nefelia Infinity Heated Pool Amazing View
Tout simplement le plus beau Air Bnb que je n’ai jamais fait ! Un villa d’architecte, des espaces immenses et somptueux, une décoration extrêmement travaillée, des vues à couper le souffle, tout simplement luxueux au possible. Evi est été parfaite , huile d’olive locale, miel et marmelade homemade en cadeau de bienvenue. Mention spéciale pour le jacuzzi et le home cinéma. Un séjour hors du temps. Le prix est effectivement très élevé mais la prestation est d’un standing sans équivalent !

Villa Amaranthus, Private Pool, Jacuzzi &mini Golf
Wonderful villa in great location for family Holliday. Facilities were great and as described. The garden is beautiful and adds to the feeling of the outside space. Good shade and sun spots in the garden at all times of day. We had a lovely time exploring the local area as well as going further afield to explore Create to the full. Lots of lovely walks possible from the villa and the local beaches perfect for low key family beach safe for kids. The bedrooms were all lovely especially the master beadroom with beautiful balcony. Host was fantastic at communication and helped us with any questions we had responding promptly and efficiently to any difficulties. Would highly recommend.

Magnifique villa en Crète avec piscine vue mer
The villa is a most beautiful place for a relaxed family vacation. Quiet, spacious and with all the amenities for a relaxed stay. The next town is nearby, only a few minutes away by car. The local support is excellent, very friendly, very responsive and alert. All in all, a very recommendable place.

The Natural view Villa with private pool
Un grand merci, tout était parfait : le lieu, la vue, le calme, l’hôte, la cuisine, la literie, tout. Sincèrement la première fois qu’une expérience est impeccable du début à la fin avec 0 chose à redire. Merci 🇬🇷

Olive dream Villa - Gazi Heraklion - Private Pool
Excellent location, and the villa was very spacious and quiet. Maria was excellent with great recommendations and always available to help. :)

Premium Villa with 72 sqm Heated Pool in Nature
The house is simply gorgeous. Our family had a wonderful Christmas holiday here. The host was very generous with items in the refrigerator and a well stocked kitchen. Lots of recommendations of places to eat in the area. Michael met us in the driveway upon arrival and showed us everything in the house, that was very kind. Especially loved access to the washer and dryer because we were traveling with kids. It was too cold to use the pool, but if you are here when it is warm, it would be such delight.

Sueno Villas, Del Mar Villa, dream above the sea!
I can’t thank Antonio, Yiannis & the Sueno team for such a great stay. Nothing was too much to ask and they were all available to help throughout my short stay. The villa is stunning with lots of lovely touches such as robe, slippers, shampoo & conditioner and even a welcome hamper! Thanks again for a wonderful stay and for being amazing hosts.

Villa Kedria with a panoramic ocean view
We stayed as a family of four for a week. The villa consisted a main floor with a modern, clean and well equipped kitchen, a comfortable sitting/dining room with lovely views over souda bay and towards chania. A large jacuzzi bath was also off the sitting area. The rest of this floor was three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one with a shower/ tub combo and the other a wetroom style. A further bedroom/ shower room was on the floor below via an outside staircase as well as a well equiped gym. The outside area was expansive and enough for our boys to run around. The villa also had a number of indoor and outdoor games for the boys to enjoy. But a lot of our time was spent in the heated pool! Overall, we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The villa was very clean, comfortable with stunning hilltop views. The location was close to the airport, local resturants and shops and we had food delivered to us a number of times. A special point was the kindness and helpfulness of our hosts, thank you!

Aquila Villa, breathtaking view, big heated pool
Our family had a wonderful time at the villa. Before we even got there, Chania Rentals were very helpful and answered all my questions. Artemis was there to greet us on arrival, despite the very late hour after our flight, and was happy to talk us through everything. We had a few small problems with the villa during our stay but Artemis was so prompt and helpful to come out straight away to sort everything. The stunning views from the villa, the peace and quiet, the gorgeous pool which we heated for the week (definitely worth the extra money in April as it made the pool warm enough to enjoy!), the beautiful decor...our family loved it all. Aquilla Villa will be our family's fondest memory of the holiday :-)!
