Iliovasilema Luxury Apartment with Private Pool
Lia was so helpful and amazing during our stay. Fast responses when asked questions, she provided us with not only comfort but made us feel like we are at home. We didn’t have a car so lia was kind enough to help us in every way possible. Lia was the best hostess we could have asked for and we are so grateful for her. Definitely the best place we have ever booked and we will definitely be recommending this to others and we will come back for sure!

Blue horizon, relaxing guesthouse with pool
We came 5 people - my husband and I, with our 2 children and my mother-in-law. First of all, a few days before we arrived Elena (an amazing woman with a perfect english) contacted me and made sure she has all the details so she can prepare a perfect stay for us. The house was super clean and equipped, and the outside was the best! We spent hours in the pool enjoying the amazing nature around us. Elena and her husband Yiorgos are wonderful people - they were very kind, caring and responsive. We wish we could come again next summer 🙏🏻

La Luna Suites 2
La Luna Sweet to super miejsce dla wszystkich. Byłyśmy tam tydzień i było perfekt ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Maria przywitała nas osobiście i zatroszczyła się o wszystko. Dziękujemy bardzo i życzymy temu miejscu cudownych gości

My home - with private heated swimming pool
Une magnifique escapade en Crête dans un super logement. Charikleia sera toujours là pour vous que ce soit pour répondre à vos questions, pour vous donner de bonnes recommandations et même passant apporter quelques douceurs traditionnelles. Le logement est très bien situé calme et reposant avec tout le matériel pour être à l'aise durant le séjour. Vous avez à proximité même pas 5 minutes à pied une petite supérette et à 10 minutes à pied la plage et de petits restaurants (attention début novembre seulement 4 restaurants ouverts). Pour vous rendre à Elafonisi ou Balos prévoyez 3h10 et 3h45 de route. Pour une famille de trois nous avons vraiment appréciés ce logement largement vivable en famille. La piscine est un réel plus. Ce fût de superbes vacances et je vous conseille vraiment ce logement. Encore merci pour votre amicalité et votre générosité. Merci de nous trois !

Aurora Residence with Pool and Tennis Court
Ein echter Geheimtipp für alle, die Ruhe, Natur und Privatsphäre suchen. Die Unterkunft liegt idyllisch gelegen, umgeben von vielen Olivenbäumen und Bergen– perfekt zum Abschalten. Besonders gefallen haben uns der wunderschöne Pool, der gepflegte Tennisplatz und die erfrischende Außendusche – ein echtes Highlight nach einem heißen Tag in der Sonne. Alles war sehr sauber und liebevoll gestaltet. Magdalena war jederzeit erreichbar und hat uns alle aufkommenden Fragen schnell beantwortet. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und kommen auf jeden Fall wieder! Eine Taverne, eine Tankstelle und eine kleine Bäckerei sind innerhalb von 15 Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar. Da es allerdings keinen Bürgersteig gibt, ist ein Auto auf jeden Fall zu empfehlen! Zum nächsten Strand, nach Heraklion und zum Flughafen sind es mit dem Auto ca. 15 Minuten.

Villa Luna/5 bedrooms/Private Pool/Hot Tub/Garden
The villa is clean, well stocked, and spacious. Simos was incredibly responsive and great to communicate with. The area is lovely, with a few excellent restaurants in walking distance, wineries and olive farms really close, and Knossos Palace also a short drive away. It’s a great place to unwind and the proximity to the Heraklion airport is also a bonus if you’re flying off the island.

Pamela's house (private pool and spa)
Le logement était impeccable, propre et bien rangé. Pamela nous a accueillie pour notre court séjour à Heraklion. Nous y étions bien installés, à une quinzaine de minutes en voiture du centre de la ville et à 10min de l’aéroport ce qui a facilité l’organisation de notre fin de séjour.

Aggeliki Luxury Villa with Private Pool
Ein absolut perfekter Aufenthalt! Die Villa war wunderschön, sehr stilvoll eingerichtet und makellos sauber. Es war wirklich an alles gedacht: Kaffee, Tee, Zucker, Gewürze, zwei Kaffeemaschinen, Teekocher, Mikrowelle, Backofen, Herd, großer Kühlschrank, Gefrierschrank mit Eiswürfeln und vollständiges Küchenequipment – es fehlte absolut nichts. Der Pool war blitzsauber 🏊, die Grillstation perfekt ausgestattet 🔥. Besonders die traumhafte Aussicht auf das Meer 🌊 war ein echtes Highlight und sorgte für entspannte Momente. Auch Klimaanlagen in jedem Raum ❄️, moderner Fernseher 📺 und stabiles, schnelles Internet – alles funktionierte reibungslos. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt, mussten uns um nichts kümmern und konnten die Zeit einfach nur genießen 😌. Der Gastgeber hat alles mit viel Liebe zum Detail vorbereitet – von der Ausstattung bis zur Sauberkeit. Wir sind sehr dankbar für diese wundervolle Erfahrung und kommen definitiv wieder! Absolute Empfehlung – 10 von 10! 🌟

Kóri, a creative guest house experience
השהות בבית של ג'ורג'יה היא הרבה מעבר למקום לישון בו. הבית יפיפה, מעוצב באהבה וכבוד למסורת המקומית והמשפחתית , כל פרט ורהיט נמצאים שם באהבה. מהריהוט המשופץ, ספרי האמנות, המטבח המקורי, ועד המיטות והמזרונים המפנקים. החצר הפנימית מאד נעימה ומטופחת. ג'ורג'יה מארחת נדיבה באנושיות הלבבית שלה, סיפקה לנו המלצות לסביבה, עזרה לנו בנדיבות רבה עם צ'ק אין מוקדם והיתה זמינה לכל שאלה או התיעצות. בית ואשה פשוט מעוררים השראה

Urban Oasis: Stylish Apartment
Tivemos uma estadia maravilhosa no espaço do Michael, na zona de Gazi, em Creta. O alojamento correspondeu totalmente às nossas expectativas — tudo estava impecável, muito limpo e bem organizado. O anfitrião Michael foi extremamente simpático, atencioso e profissional. Desde o primeiro contacto até ao final da nossa estadia, sentimo-nos sempre apoiados. A sua disponibilidade e amabilidade fizeram toda a diferença e superaram as nossas expectativas. Chegámos a Creta bastante cedo e, a nosso pedido, o Michael gentilmente permitiu um check-in antecipado, o que foi uma grande ajuda. Além disso, forneceu-nos um guarda-sol, algo simples mas que fez toda a diferença durante os nossos passeios pela ilha. No final da estadia, ofereceu-nos também um late check-out, o que facilitou imenso, já que o nosso voo era apenas ao final da tarde. Foi realmente uma experiência fantástica, não só pelo espaço em si, mas sobretudo pela hospitalidade do Michael. Recomendamos vivamente!

Two Storey Μaisonette with Terrace
Excellent séjour chez Vasilis, emplacement parfait et appartement parfaitement conforme a la description

Anantia Luxury Maisonette - Scenic View
My wife and I toured the Villa in the listing, and it was absolutely gorgeous, but we stayed at the single story Villa below and our review will reflect our experience there. One thing worth noting about the listed Villa is that it is two stories, both beautifully appointed. Our single story Villa, a part of the same complex, was beautiful, peaceful, and restful. The Villa was impeccably clean, the space spacious and airy, completely modern and luxurious but without pretense. I could live there year round and count myself fortunate. The location is fifteen or twenty minutes from a number of popular beaches, yet in the countryside far from the noise, clutter, and confusion of the city. The town has everything you need and nothing you don’t. If anything could be better than the villa it’s the host, Manos. Manos is the most friendly and generous host imaginable; a gentleman and beautiful person in every sense. If I have any regrets about the villa it’s that I didn’t book it for longer.

Alcyone Country Apartment with pool and Sea View
L'alloggio è situato in campagna immerso nella tranquillità ad appena 10 minuti dalla principale arteria stradale. La casa è pulita e ordinata e i padroni gentilissimi e velocissimi a rispondere. mi sono trovato proprio bene ad un prezzo ottimo. Per gli amanti dei gatti sappiate che sarete circondati da qualche micio ogni mattina desideroso di attenzioni e cibo, non negategli una scatoletta che sono tanto teneri.🥹

NiYa2 Suite, in Heraklion
Lovely host, very communicative and helpful! Place suited us for a couple of nights in Heraklion.

Coast Suite-Luxury Central Beach House
This place completely exceeded our expectations! It’s absolutely stunning, with a breathtaking, priceless view that made our stay unforgettable. The hosts were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and went out of their way to make sure we felt comfortable and accommodated. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience — highly recommended!

Cosy house next to the beach
Matthaios è stato veramente molto gentile ed attento. Sempre a disposizione e, se impossibilitato per qualsiasi evenienza, la madre o la moglie si sono mostrate sempre presenti. La casa è accogliente, tranquilla e vicinissima al mare (50 metri) e accessoriata con tutti i comfort. Facile da raggiungere dall'aereoporto di Heraklion e comoda per raggiungere le belle spiagge vicine. Consigliatissimo.

"Eleni" Sea Luxury Apartment
Together with my wife and daughter I really did enjoy our stay at Elenis Apartment! We had to leave Crete earlier than expected (due to some private stuff). Eleni was very understanding and accepted our request of shortening the stay. We got a refund of 3 days which was very accommodating!! The flat got everything you need, we spent most of our time on the balcony looking at the sea. The beach close by is nice and quiet. The next restaurant is in walking distance of 25minutes, we do recommend a rental car though.

Cozy village house in Ano Asites
Our stay at Christina’s was excellent. Exactly what we hoped for, a quiet village, clean space with everything we needed. The locals were friendly and we had plenty to do within a 30m drive any direction. Would recommend as a home base to explore the rural areas of Crete.

Filoxenia Apartment
Πολύ όμορφος χώρος οτι πρέπει για ζευγάρια, τα εχει ολα μεσα , ζεστό, καθαρό περιποιημένο, με λιγες γάτες και δύο σκυλιά τριγύρω πολυ φιλικά ολα τους. Εύκολα προσβάσιμο με ωραια θέα ειδικά απο το μπροστινό τραπέζι. Μακάρι να είχαμε παραπάνω μέρες να το απολαύσουμε περισσότερο!!

Eleni Luxury Maisonette with Jacuzzi
Its a great loft styled house that has an amazing patio/ rooftop! The place is also very conveniently located close to the highway and has lots of restaurants, shops, and pharmacies nearby! As its close to the airport, we did hear a lot of loud airplane taking off but it DID NOT bother us and it was very cool to see plane taking off in the hot tub! The hot tub was such a great addition to the space and the host provided bathrobes for our stay which was also a nice touch! It is placed in an area that is very private on the rooftop so you can totally enjoy with privacy. The host is great communicators and respond very promptly! The check out experience was very easy and they made it extra hassle free!

Venetian Gate- New, modern apt in city center
We enjoyed the apartment which was very well equipped and clean as it seems in foto. In case that I would make to come to Heraklion I would choose the same place, so from the heart I would recommend to others who come. Whether as a family or friends!

SEA and SUN
Beautiful little house literally five minutes walk from the beach. There is even a lovely little garden outside with plenty of sun and sea breeze. The location is excellent, there are restaurants and supermarkets within just a few minutes walk. Despina is a wonderful and kind host. I really enjoyed staying here and would love to return.

The Sunny Terrace House
Staying at Panagiotis and Marianne place, The Sunny Terrace House was wonderful ! They were absolutely amazing hosts - so kind and generous, they provided everything we needed for breakfast, water and even a special raki in the fridge ❤️ The house is better in reality than the photos. Big, high ceiling rooms, very clean and well arranged. The living room with the kitchen is very spacious. The terrace surrounding the house is also very generous and well shaded. The bathroom - very beautiful, clean and spacious. The location is perfect, quiet and near the beach, tavernas and bus station. We highly recommend this place!! For sure, we will return to stay here when visiting Crete again- we felt like home ❤️

Hidden "Nest" - Cozy appartment!
nous avons passé notre première nuit dans ce logement et nous avons été ravis de l'accueil qui nous a été fait, notre haute c'est montrer très chaleureuse nous a conseiller une petite taverne à côté du logement dans laquelle nous avons été et nous avons rencontré un propriétaire d'une grande gentillesse qui nous a fait goûter plein de spécialité. magnifique ☺️
