Villa holiday rentals in Achlia

One of the best stays in airbnb over the years. Perfect place for staying with kids, lots of toys and everything. Our 3 year old son was really enjoyed. Giannis and Mara were really helpful about everything. They booked us transfer from airport for late night arrival and booked us a rental car for the next morning which we picked up at the door of the villa! This was one of the easiest and convenient option. I left my sunglasses at the rental car, they found it and will send me by shipping. Best hosts and best place to stay! Hope to meet you again.

Die Begrüssung mit offenen Armen hat die Zeit etwas zurückgedreht: In die ursprüngliche airbnb-Zeit, die immer persönlich und oft herzlich war. Danke, dass wir das wieder einmal erleben durften! Das Haus ist äusserst geräumig und überrascht mit zwei Badezimmern mit zwei Duschen (+ je WC und immer genügend Warmwasser). Ein unglaubliches Auge fürs Detail macht das Wohnen in Giorgios Unterkunft immer wieder spannend :-) Richtig gute Matratzen sind mit dabei - erholsam! Der Aussenbereich ist unschlagbar: Man tritt in „in vier Phasen“ aus dem Haus… von innen zu halb-aussen zu aussen-halb-innen zu wirklich aussen :-D und überall kann man sich entspannen, je mach Lust und Laune. Die Zufahrt von Gra Lygia zum Haus erfordert etwas Vorsicht. Die Katzen sind superlieb, herzig und top erzogen/gepflegt sowie ernährt - wow! Danke Giorgios für die gemütlichen Austausche und frische Gurken-Überraschung, wenn du nicht gerade am Arbeiten warst. Danke seiner Frau für die gebackene Überraschung! Hingehen!

We had a great stay! The location was perfect – very quiet, yet ideal for exploring the island. Everything was clean and exactly like in the photos. Communication was flawless, they responded immediately and were very helpful. I would definitely recommend this place to my friends and family!

Очень уютное и просторное жилье , находится в очень тихом месте , но при этом все в доступности , хотели бы вернуться, хозяин очень отзывчивый ,быстро отвечает и всегда готов помочь , отдельное спасибо за гостинцы при заселение

Fantastic stay at this wonderful village house in beautiful peaceful Milatos, we cannot recommend this accommodation highly enough, exactly as pictured and described , host was amazing as was the delicious meal she left for our first night! Great amenities within house too. Great location to drive through mountains to elounda and agios Nikoliaos , we went straight south to beaches there too. All the restaurants on the front were amazing bar with no name fab through to Socrates so friendly and cheap €45 for two with wine . Old neighbour we sat and had a beer with although dialect was limited. Thank you again we will be back and telling everyone to come 🥰

We had a wonderful time at Antonios' place! The property was perfectly & accurately described & after we booked it, Antonios sent us lots of additional helpful details, tips & great suggestions. We were just 2 people, so the property felt quite roomy, which was nice. I would say that a car is needed - not so much for the daily tasks as going to the beach or grabbing food, but for the freedom, convenience & affordability when exploring the surrounding. We covered almost the whole eastern part of the island in 20 days & Antonios' villa served as a perfect base. The closest bakery is excellent. The walk to Gra Ligia beach took me 20 min - possible, doable, nice to have in a way, but carefully with the traffic on the road. The Gra Ligia beach is quite nice actually - fine sand inside and not too deep. We were driving to other beaches, but there is a close, nice option too. Overall, the stay at Antonios' place was wonderful- great deal, super service! Will do it again without doubt!

Das Haus ist völlig neu und die Einrichtung modern und hochwertig und entspricht den Fotos. Es liegt ruhig am Rande des Ortes oberhalb des Dorfes und hat eine sehr schöne Aussicht über die Ebene bis hin nach Sitia und zum Meer in der Ferne. Die Kommunikation mit Pantelis war sehr gut. Vor Ort war die Betreuung durch Thasos und seine Frau Maria (die Besitzer des Hauses) super. Wir wurden mit einer umfangreichen Lebensmittelausstattung versorgt und mit selbstgemachten Gebäck verwöhnt. Das Haus ließ sich gut heizen, da wir leider ein paar kühle und regnerische Tage erwischt hatten. Ein guter Standort, um den Osten Kretas zu erkunden.

Met een groep van 9 vrienden een fantastisch verblijf gehad. Het huis was prachtig en de tuin met zwembad ook ook. Ook erg aardig dat we bij het uitchecken nog konden verblijven in een ander resort van manolis voordat we naar het vliegveld moesten. Dankjewel namens alle boys!

Unsere Woche in der Unterkunft war einfach traumhaft. Die Unterkunft entspricht den Fotos in vollem Umfang. Die Ausstattung ist top und der Blick aus den oberen Schlafzimmern ist herrlich. Man kann auch über einen kleinen Pfad zur Bucht unten gelangen. Claudia war eine tolle Ansprechpartnerin, antwortet schnell und hat uns im ihren Tipps einen tollen Aufenthalt ermöglicht. Sie hat auch Restaurants für uns reserviert. Die Unterkunft ist eine 10/10 und wir (7 Mädels) können sie voll weiterempfehlen.

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. It was clean and we even got new towels in the middle of the week which we did not expect. Would absolutely recommend staying there.

Me and my family had a great week at Villa Aires. The house is very special - set on a mountain side with incredible views up and down the valley. The sunsets each evening were perfectly framed by the landscape and some of the most beautiful we have seen. We hired a vehicle for the duration of the holiday and I would say this is essential for a holiday here - the price you pay for the stunning surroundings is that the house is quite remote, only the local village is walkable (charming but just a couple of restaurants and a small shop on offer). A car also gives you the opportunity to explore this area of Crete which has lots to offer with beaches, history, markets, harbours, beautiful towns. As long as you’re happy with the location, this villa is a no brainer. We would stay again without hesitation!

Die Unterkunft war mehr als traumhaft wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Der Pool ist sehr sauber genauso wie die gesamte Unterkunft und die Außenanlagen. Die Kommunikation war perfekt und sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich. Wir wurden zudem von Lisas Mutter sehr herzlich empfangen. Ein wunderschöner Urlaub in einer wunderschönen Unterkunft mit sehr freundlichen Vermietern!

Wir hatten einen extrem schönen Aufenthalt in der Villa. Der Pool und die Aussicht sind einfach atemberaubend. Die Zimmer sind sehr geräumig und es gibt viel Platz zum entspannen. Alles war sehr sauber und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Vielen Dank für alles Stavros. Wir kommen wieder!

We had a wonderful holiday. The villa is lovely and was perfect for a big family. Audrey is a great host who was so helpful throughout but especially with the challenges of the late arrival and checkout. Location is great and facilities were also great and exceeded expectations. A special mention for Wayne (the handyman), he took care of the garden, pool etc and is a bit of a legend👏. We would definitely look to book here again.

We had a wonderful stay, and Manolis made everything so easy upon our arrival. We’ll be recommending the villa as it is ideally located and easily accessible from the main roads. Our stay in Crete was perfect in every way from the warm welcome to the outstanding hospitality and, of course, the delicious food!

Alexis and Nina’s home was one of perfection, beauty, and charm! From the second you walk in, you’re captivated by the extremely well-constructed villa’s character. The three apartment living spaces meet every need, every detail is well thought out, and every special touch makes for the perfect stay! Amazing views, lovely gathering spaces, and true luxury abound throughout. Alexis and Nina went above and beyond to host our group, personally demonstrating Greek hospitality and love of family. From the special selection left for us upon arrival, to the incredible treats given to us at our departure…they made for a truly unforgettable stay. We stay in AirBnBs all over the world, and this villa tops them ALL! It was complete perfection in every way, and we are so thankful for the wonderful memories of this beautiful experience that we’ll carry home with us.

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour chez Despoina et Nikos . La vue, la piscine à débordement, la plage privée tout était parfait ! Merci à nos hôtes pour leur gentillesse et toutes leurs attentions (huile d’olive, petits gâteaux grecs )… Ce coin de l’île est beaucoup plus tranquille et moins surpeuplé que dans le nord et très pratique pour visiter certains lieux touristiques ( Agios Nikolaos, l’île de Spinalonga, Mochlos super joli village, Makris Gialos…). Nous apprécions également de rester profiter de la piscine et de la plage privée ! Nous reviendrons avec plaisir et surtout nous communiquerons l’adresse à nos amis. On vous dit à bientôt.

Extrem schnelle Reaktion auf unsere Fragen/Anliegen. Sauber, sehr freundliche Betreuung, alles da was man braucht. Gute Bausubstanz.

We had a wonderful time. The villa felt private even though there are two other villas next door. My friends and I loved the pool and how spacious the whole place was. We had stunning views of the nearby sea and town. Each bedroom has it's own bathroom. The only negative was the water pressure in the upstairs showers. Nota was very accommodating. She offered to clean the apartment during our stay and helped us arrange our hire cars. (From my group's experience, a car is highly recommended as taxis and public transport weren't great). The village, beaches and restaurants in the area were also great. Overall, my friends and I were very happy with our stay and would definitely come back.

When you're looking for a quite place with privacy than this the place you are looking for. Surrounded by olive trees, close (but not too close) to the village and the sea side. A lovely villa with a nice (and very clean) pool that gives refreshment in the hot summer time. The villa is well equipped. Tips about the region come from Manos ... but we have to admit that we've had some lazy days in Zakros and did not visit all what Manos proposed :-). We've went to a few beaches but for us Kato Zakros (only 12 minutes drive -- lovely views by the way) was the ideal place. Not too busy and really nice restaurants on the beach. 100% chill.

wir haben uns mit der ganzen Familie sehr wohl gefühlt. es war ein sehr freundliches Willlkommenheißen, für die Kinder gab es viele tolle Spielmöglichkeiten neben dem Pool. alles war sehr sauber und ordentlich. Giannis war sehr hilfsbereit.

We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Neli. The views of the ocean from the patio is spectacular, offering access to the sea from the end of the garden. Alot of time was spent cooling down in the large pool. The house is comfortable, with chilly air-conditioning in each room. There is two convenient swimming beaches nearby. If renting a vehicle best to have an SUV to navigate bumpy roads. The hostess Eva was super, with quick responses, advise and assistance. Well worth visiting.

Séjour incroyable en famille dans la villa que nous propose Nikos ! L’hôte est tellement accueillant et réactif à nos demandes, c’était parfait !! De bon cœur et très bienveillant (malgré notre anglais imparfait …Aha) . Nikos a su nous conseiller sur les restaurants, épicerie … tout ce dont nous avions besoin. Au niveau de la maison vraiment rien à dire, c’était tellement agréable et apaisant. Ah oui aussi ! Nikos nous a servi une huile d’olive incroyable qui vient de ses vergers ! Nous referons et conseillerons cet endroit à 1000%. Un grand MERCI Nikos

Rebecca‘s house is really exceptional! The location on top of a hill with an almost 360 degree view of the seaside, the bay and the town is nothing but spectacular. The little tower by the sea, the seating area under the trees, the jacuzzi with sea view and the infinity pool, all make for an incredible and cozy atmosphere. Communication with Rebecca was flawless and super friendly. The location is a 5 min drive or 30 min walk from the town center with an abundance of restaurants, cafés and bars. The wider area is home of many beautiful beaches and spectacular ravines for hiking.
