Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Lasithi

We enjoyed a fantastic four days in Aris’ place, the views of the plateau and mountains are just beautiful! We felt right at home, and it was lovely to have Aris and his wife physically there at check in, a rarity these days! The images really don’t do this place justice, it is up some winding roads but we were prepared for that having visited the plateau in 2012. We can’t recommend staying here more, we really wish we’d have booked a longer stay! Aris had a fantastic hire car recommendation too, which was also great, and we had some amazing recommendations from them too. Thank you very much Aris!

Pasiphae House was something out of a dream! It was beautifully designed in the traditional Crete Village homes style. The location is isolate in the mountains, but amongst a great community of people. We were greeted by Yianna and Koula that gave us the walk through of the house, and we're always in constant communication. Ioanna supplied us with a long list of things to do and try in the area which we took full advantage of. Overall it was a beautiful stay and would highly recommend.

Everything is very well maintained - the location within walking distance of the beach is unbeatable. Friendly welcome from the hostess, highly recommended!

Lovely place to stay and well set up - we had a very comfortable couple of days Fabulous to be welcomed with fresh produce most of which was home grown in the fridge and a bottle of wine as well as oils and vinegar and tea and coffee Would definitely stay there again

This was our favourite stay of the trip. The place is idyllic, with a private swimming area only a few steps away. The house is decorated tastefully and gives a really nice indoor-outdoor feeling with the large patio and sliding doors. The kitchen is extremely well-stocked with everything you might need to cook, including well-sharpened knives! Manolis brought us some fresh vegetables from the farm, which were delicious. Everything about the place is thoughtful and we loved our stay there. It is ideal for a trip where you want to spend a lot of time relaxing at the house and hanging out, it is so nice we barely wanted to leave!

We had a fantastic stay also thanks to our great host Popi, responded quickly to our questions and always came up with a solution. Accommodation was super clean and everything a person needs during his vacation. 2 terraces one at the front and one at the back with spectacular views over the bay of Agios Nickolaos. Furthermore, it is also the perfect place to make trips to the east side of Crete. A car is recommended here. Tip: drive to the idyllic town of Mochlos. Popi thank you for your hospitality, you were a lovely host and hopefully see you soon.

As a couple staying here, we can recommend for a quiet and relaxing stay. Everything is as advertised: simple but clean. The terrace offers privacy and is surrounded by olive trees. Restaurants are on walking distance, as is the beach (20 min) if you can cope with the steep hill. As almost everywhere in Crete, a car comes in handy for any other trips.

The place was exactly as described. Very friendly landlady. Requests were met. An earlier check-in was possible without any problems. Messages were answered quickly and kindly

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!

Everything was ok. Thank you for having us, we had a great time.

We enjoyed our stay very much! Nice view! Recommendation!

We had the pleasure of staying in Rena's apartment from 26/5 to 2/6/25 and it was a fantastic experience! The apartment was as described, but the view from the terrace exceeded expectations! Unfortunately, we were unable to meet Rena in person, but she was always available for our every request. She had warned us in advance that the village market would still be closed, so we were able to stock up on groceries before arriving, but she still made sure we had everything we needed in the house (thank you again!). In the house, there is every type of useful accessory for the kitchen, but also some thoughtful touches that I have never found on other occasions! The road to reach this small village is quite winding, but we felt so good there that we only moved once. There are 2/3 beaches (where we were often alone) reachable with a nice walk in the middle of nowhere breathing the scent of oregano! We hope to be back!

The apartment was very nice with a spectacular view. It was all within walking distance. And the hosts were super friendly and always available.

Our family had a wonderful time here. The room was perfect and spacious for our family and everything we needed. The little play set outside entertained the kids a lot and is steps from the beach and excellent restaurants. We had a wonderful time!

Very beautiful, large traditional Greek house. And an extraordinary garden with breathtaking views. With small hammock rest areas, sun loungers. Beautiful outdoor dining area. And a very warm and attentive family welcome.

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!!

Excellent villa on the south side of Crete. Pool, landscapes and the house are beautiful! The south of Crete is way less touristy than the north so if you want quiet this is the spot. We were the only Americans anywhere in May!

this house is very comfortable, really nothing is missing for a maximum quality of stay...the environment is simply splendid with fantastic views...a very comfortable exterior too...a taverna 50 m walk away or you can eat very well for cheap.. Mike and his parents are very friendly ,generous people who do everything to make your stay unforgettable...and they succeed...we would almost want to keep this address for us ,so it's jewelry from every point of view...thank you to them and we think we'll come back quickly ...the geographical location is excellent for visiting, the beach of Val,Sitia, mochlos and all the surrounding walks...house recommended without reservation...

We highly recommend this location. Beautiful accommodation with stunning surroundings. All the staff were delightful and nothing was too much trouble. The home cooked food was nothing short of fantastic. Particularly wonderful was the samples of traditional food (not on the menu) offering a real insight into local homemade dishes. The estate includes fruit trees, vegetables, walnut trees and much more. Guests are welcome to eat the fruit. A short walk takes you up into the pine forest, with shaded paths, local gardens and animals on route. Don’t pass up the opportunity to stay here!

We had an incredible holiday in Plaka. The villa is tastefully decorated and equipped for a relaxing holiday, but the best part was the views and the attention we received from Tina, Aspa, and Angelis, who were always friendly and willing to help us enjoy our stay.

Very helpful and always easy to contact host. Unfortunately we experienced a technical fault with the heating, but Jan organised an electrician for the following morning and the problem was solved in less than 24 hours. It couldn't have been better managed. All in all, a fantastic place and lots of wonderful memories were made.

What words should we find for this excellent house, spotless, well equipped, furnished with taste, with unobstructed views of the sea and the mountains of Lasithi. The Apostolis impeccable host,very friendly, very kind and always willing to serve us. We wish him and his family to be well and to rejoice in their home. We hope we can come back for more days

We felt very comfortable in Konstantinos' villa from the beginning. The amenities are very good and everything else was tiptop, so we didn't even have to contact Konstantinos. Arrival, key handover, etc. went completely smoothly. The accommodation is on the edge of the small village of Anatoli, where it is very quiet and you have a lot of privacy. There are 2 small taverns in the village that are worth a visit. Here you are still away from the big tourism. Anyone who comes here should definitely be animal-friendly. There are some stray cats around the villa that are grateful if you take care of them. However, you have to think carefully beforehand whether you want to feed the cats. We enjoyed our time there very much and can imagine coming back here.

A pleasant stay surrounded by nature in an area with a tidy garden, flowering plants, trees. The opportunity to enjoy nature, the environment and the sun at various times of the day, it has been furnished with cozy awnings and gazebos in various places in the garden , by the pool and in front of the house. It is possible to prepare a meal yourself in the kitchen, or on a live fire in the garden. For a cooler evening or romance there is a kindling fireplace in the house. Really liked the proximity to nature, no city noises and hustle, at the same time the city Heraklion can be reached by about 10-12 minutes by car. We felt cozy, the hosts were responsive and hospitable.
