Smoking friendly holiday rentals in Istro

A nice clean studio, quiet and in a good location. Mike provided us with all the necessary information and was very responsive to our requests. The beach located a stone's throw away is very pleasant!! Good stay

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!

A good base for excursions in the east of the island. We were welcomed with homemade oil and rhaki and Easter bread. A very nice gesture. For us, it was a relaxing time, everything fit.

There are no words to describe how great it was at Popi and in Tertsa!! I loved it! The apartment is very lovingly furnished, it really has everything you need. It is very clean, cozy and has a great balcony with a beautiful sea view. There is a lot of space for parking. The beach of Tertsa and fie Taveren are also great, away from mass tourism. But the best thing is Popy's cordiality and hospitality. She spoils you with delicacies. Soooo fantastic! Even cooked for me, I will never forget that. Thank you Popi! ❤️ The garden with fruit and vegetables, which you can eat, is also great. So many tomatoes, lemons, grapes, pomegranates..... It was the best stay on my three-week round trip.

Safe neighborhood! Shop 1 min! Delicious coffee in coffee shops! Very spacious and clean apartment! There is everything you need: a washing machine, an iron, a hairdryer. Bus stop nearby. Clean and spacious. The only thing to be scared of is that the apartment is on the first floor and the entrance to the apartment is not from the entrance, but directly from the street, but the neighborhood is safe, so you shouldn't worry about it. The host was wonderful, friendly! Check-out at 12:00 - just great. I recommend it!

We had a great relaxing week at this peaceful Air Bnb. Afroditi met us with home made pastries, her family olive oil and raki, answered all our questions and gave us great recommendations for restaurants. We used the kitchen a lot for cooking and it was very well set up so we felt very much at home. We loved sitting on the large balcony looking over the sea and up into the mountains. Lovely beach right in front, many good restaurants 5 minutes walk away. The flat is in a very quiet bay and quite private. Afroditi was very welcoming and generous and a great host. We felt we had the perfect stay at Makry Gialos and would stay at Afroditi's place again.

Thank you Michail! Great welcome, very nice place, people concerned about your well-being. Thank you to the Cretans for this welcome. Hoping to return very soon!!

We’ve spent 6 days in Aspasia’s lovely house and it was pretty much what we’ve been looking for: a quiet location with an amazing sea view. The apartment is very well equipped and sparkling clean. It is very large, compared to most other accommodations in this price range in Greece. The huge terrace has a great view and that’s where we’ve spent our mornings and evenings. The air conditioning unit works well and it was much needed. The wind has been blowing so hard most of the nights, that it was impossible to keep the windows open and hope to cool down the place that way. There was only one thing I did not like and that was the beds. They really are quite hard and far from my idea of a comfy bed. This wasn’t a surprise, as I knew from the pictures the beds are twins, but the combination between the really hard mattress and the twin beds makes the bedroom quite an unwelcoming space for a couple. We’ve ended up sleeping on the couch. I’d book again, if there was a comfy bed option.

We had a great stay. The co-Host Rea was super responsive and the views were great as you can see in the pictures. The flat was clean and has a spaciuos balcony. On premises parking was not possible, but there are parking possibilities next to the road. The place is quite remote, no supermarkets or restaurants nearby, a car is needed. All in all we can recomment to stay here!

Theodora’s apartment is hidden gem in Agios Nikolaos. During our stay we realized, there is no better location for families with small kids. It’s right next to beach bar with great beach, in our opinion best within the city and there is even kids playground right next to it. You have 6-7 great local restaurants within 5mins walk + 2 grocery shops. Location is very quiet. Apartment is very well equipped with all you need for shorter or even longer stay (we stayed 1month). Theodora was very friendly, responsive and helpful with anything we needed. We can only recommend her and her apartment to anyone who wants to enjoy perfect vacation. Efcharisto Theodora 👍🏻

We felt very comfortable. Top amenities, super clean, one of the best Airbnbs we've stayed in. The view from the balcony is fantastic and very relaxing. It's very quiet. You can really switch off. Massimo and his wife are very hospitable. We felt very comfortable. If we come to Crete again, we will definitely come back here. Just the right apartment to relax and unwind.

One of the most beautiful homes we have ever stayed at. Owner is great and took care of everything very fast and efficiently. Perfect place to relax and enjoy a secluded holiday in Crete. We will always go back to this place!

Very comfortable two bedrooms. Fantastic location right on the shore with their own access to the water. A lot of good restaurants with in a walking distance.

We had a great time at Pinelopi's relaxing apartment by the beach! She gave us lots of great suggestions of places to visit and was very kinda and friendly. There are lots of great beaches nearby. We enjoyed meeting Toby the dog and having Sissi the cat hang out with us each morning. thank you again!

Manos's place was located at a beautiful ans peaceful location, near the city centre but also at a good distance away from too much crowds. The apartment was as described, and is also clean and spacious. Manos even provided handmade cookies from his father and local Raki for us to try. He was also open to us leaving our luggages in the apartment while it was being cleaned due to our earlier arrival. Overall a very pleasant and lovely experience!

We had a great stay and the accommodation was superbly equipped for the shortness of our stay. The apartment is very tastefully decorated and super clean. The veranda and the view are a great highlight. The only downside: the busy road directly in front of the house. Unfortunately, it's quite noisy. Otherwise, our hostess was very friendly and helpful. Thank you!

We loved the stay in Agios - Maria was very nice & flexible. Supermarket, lake, sea and restaurants surrounding the flat and the apartment is very sweet with everything u need for a couple of days in Agios. Nice balcony, comfortable bed, nice bathroom. Very thankful for our time here :)

We had a wonderful time in Sitia! Especially thanks to the beautiful apartment ! Thanks to Mary! Petra

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.

Eleftheria, Gianni's wife, gave us a lovely warm welcome and gave us lots of useful information about the area on the first day. The flat overlooks the marina and so has a wonderful view. Perfect location, well equipped kitchen and would highly recommend. We had a great time in Agios Nikolaos.

The room was nice and big, view from the balcony was really beautiful, pool was great and the location was the best. You can find everything you need in Istro - shops, tavernas, beautiful beaches. We loved it and we can certainly recommend!

Beautiful spacious apartment with great modern design and with a unique sea view from the balcony (sea only about 20 meters away). Everything you need. The landlord is extremely friendly and always available. We felt very comfortable. There are many good restaurants in the area, all within walking distance. The free parking by the sea was also perfect. From there, it only takes 5 minutes to get to the apartment. The beautiful bar near the bedrooms was always well attended and accordingly it was loud there until the night. It's a matter of taste, but the beds were too hard for us. Otherwise, absolutely recommended! We felt very comfortable and always had breakfast comfortably on the balcony.

We had a lovely stay at Sofia and her father Georgios' apartment - we particularly enjoyed the 2 balconies and the great location for the city centre. Good view over similar height buildings all around on three sides (5 floors with small lift). There was a delay replying to messages 2wks before (important as wanted to confirm they knew we were due to arrive late) but once that was sorted Georgios was lovely, meeting and chatting to us even though we arrived at midnight and providing a baby pram and cot. The apartment was as described and well looked after, though some doors were hard to shut, both bedroom black-out blinds bit stuck (so light) and some fittings from the 70s. It would have been good to have some bottled water on arrival (as we didn't want to drink tap water) but lots of condiments, shower gel, washing machine etc provided. A few mosquitos, initially none, after we watered the plants (in Oct) but good aircon in 3 rooms. It was good value and I would book again.

This stay is amazing. So comfortable and spacious. The restaurant just below is a must. Great host, great spot.
