Villa holiday rentals in Platanias

Fantastic views, very clean, incredibly helpful host with great recommendations. We were so sad to leave!

We immediately fell in love with this villa! The quality of absolutely everything in and around the building is extraordinary. The pictures cannot truly capture how beautiful and well-designed this place is. From the tasteful interior decor to the immaculate outdoor areas, every detail has been carefully thought out to provide both comfort and luxury. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious and memorable getaway. We can’t wait to return!

The villa was fantastic and our host was even better. Perfect sunset every day. Very clean and comfortable. Bakery and grocery stores nearby. Excellent restaurant just down the hill as well. Our host Dimitra was the icing on the cake. She treated us like family <3

Absolutely beautiful villa, both the host and housekeeper, Christina, were lovely to deal with and super helpful. You will not regret staying here!

We had a fantastic stay here. The house is spacious, very well equipped and very flexible. The surrounding is absolutely beautiful. Even though we came at the end of season and the weather wasn't perfect anymore, we enjoyed every minute. Aleksandra and her family are very caring and supportive, true hosts!

We stayed at this house for the second time. It is a very good equipped house that beautifully located very close to the beach

An absolute gem, we had an amazing stay at Maria's place. The house is absolutely beautiful, modern with quality all around. It's also super private with nothing but nature around you. Will definitely be coming back!!

Amazing place with amazing views. The owner Manos is impeccable. Very friendly he gave us lots of advises about Crete. We definitely be back. Support local always.

Beautifully constructed and well appointed home in a very peaceful area! Beds are so comfortable compared to other European stays. We traveled to a few different beaches- sandy to rocky- in under an hour. Afrata beach just 5 mins drive or 20min walk. Super relaxing stay!

Wonderful Experience at the Villa Elias! Our stay at the villa was perfect. The sea view was breathtaking, especially during sunset – a true sense of calm, quiet, and complete privacy. Choosing this villa was an excellent decision, especially because of the heated pool, which the kids absolutely loved. They enjoyed both swimming and playing in the spacious garden. The villa is well-equipped, with many useful items that made our stay very comfortable, including an air pump for pool toys. The location is also great – close to shops, supermarkets, and pharmacies. Highly recommended for families looking for a peaceful and convenient holiday with children. Wissam,

This place is a treasure. The views from the living room and kitchen are spectacular. The house has many clever features that are well designed. The area around Almyrida is fun to explore--go down to the beach or on a hike along the coast. Almyrida is a cute beach town, very welcoming. And we did several further from the town adventures. We had no idea that Crete has so much to offer--pottery in Margarites, beautiful beaches, intense hikes, exceptional museums, exploring Hania's historic streets. The property management team were wonderful to interact with. We felt so fortunate to find such a gem. Thank you!!! We sure hope we can return.

Absolutely incredible stay at the villa very opulent from the minute the gate opens . So spacious,5 of us stayed for 1 week and the villa was just perfect. The outside area was amazing for relaxing wish we could have stayed longer. And will definitely book again with Dimitrios. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Thank you

Another big thank you to Giorgos and Maria for their hospitality. A very big sandstorm from the Sahara disrupted everything on the day of our arrival. Our hosts did their best and even the impossible to clean everything and allow us to enjoy the villa in the best conditions. The villa is beautiful. Everything is planned so that we can relax and make the most of it. Full of good intentions, the products available allow us to feel comfortable as soon as we arrive. I can only recommend the Mythic Olive villa 😊

We had a great stay - the villa was exactly as described - having a pool attached to our glorious terrace - made our stay so much more enjoyable. The layout of the villa is perfect - large bedrooms and great bathrooms - all the facilities just perfect. It was a nice touch having the villa topped and tailed whilst we stayed - fresh bedding and towels supplied. There are some wonderful beaches within walking distance - with food and drink available - so you can spend the whole day on the beach and also some a short drive away with a much more of a Beach Club vibe going on. The harbour and the Old Town have great places to eat and much to see and do - a trip to some of the restaurants in the hillsides is a must do.

We felt right at home. The incredibly lovely owners and helpers of the house have contributed to this, in combination with this great place to stay. We were overwhelmed by the island and the people from the first minute. I highly recommend getting to know this country and its people. You'll love it. Many thanks for everything! Michael, Michelle and Nick.

We stayed for 1 week (4adults and 4 kids) having been to Crete a number of times before. The villa was up in the hills (you need to hire a car to get anywhere and driving on the small lanes is not for the faint hearted) but this gave us the beautiful views over the bay and a lovely sea breeze. The house was immaculate with all the essentials and mod cons including chilled filtered water from the fridge. The ice machine didn’t work so one of the team popped around with a big bag of ice the next day which we used instead. We also experienced a sandstorm (happens about once a year) with Saharan sand being deposited on everything. The cleaners were around the next morning and the pool was cleaned beautifully. The pool itself was heated to a lovely temperature so the kids could enjoy it all day and the hot tub was even warmer so the perfect place to sit and enjoy drinks. We used the outdoor built in barbecue and sat outside for dinners (great views). Karolina was very responsive! Recommend!

Cozy and comfortable house in a beautiful place with beautiful views. Get used to the steep road there, but then you also have some. 5 minutes drive to the beach and village, but also to walk (about 15 minutes). Stamatis responded quickly and carefully to every question. Too bad we didn't meet, but he was very available. i highly recommend this place!

The Airbnb was fantastic, very modern and spacious with an amazing view. The host was extremely helpful leading up to our stay and also during our stay. One of the best Villa’s I have ever stayed in, the pictures do not do it justice. Highly recommend choosing this for your stay in Greece. Only bad thing is that we had to leave to come back home!

Beautiful villa in a great location. If your are stunned by the pictures, you sure will be stunned by the villa itself - it is simply a gem. It lies at the top of a hill overlooking Kissamos. If you don’t mind a short, steep walk, you can even reach the town (and a supermarket) per foot. If there is anything to criticize then it is the kitchen equipment - a few more big bowls for salad etc would be great. Ioannis is a great host, super friendly and helpful. We are definitely coming back.

Very cozy and relaxing atmosphere. Beautiful scenes. Friendly hosts and flexible check in and out timings. They provided essentials for our first day, nice home made cake and a bottle of extra virgin olive oil. Prompt response to our requests. The villa is really amazing and made our holiday this summer one of our best ever holidays. Will come back soon.

Loved our stay in this remote villa. Amazing views with sunsets from the pool. Beds were very comfortable with quality linens and towels. Nice having the pool heated! House is remote so bring all the food needed. Rather close to Elifonisi beach which was well worth the 20 minute drive. Driving is not for the faint of heart of heart. Many tavernas in the area within 15 minutes drive. Would stay again. Thank you Theoni!

Amazing Place! Extremely friendly and helpfull host! The house was exactly as described in photos and listing! Totally recomended!!! Hope we will visit again soon..

Absolutely beautiful villa, so tranquil & private with stunning views. Great local restaurants a short walk away. We will definitely be back again in the future!

We had an amazing family holiday during Easter (lots of bell ringing on the hour from the local churches!)…certainly added to the character and atmosphere especially during Easter!! Beautifully maintained villa, the cleaner does a superb job it was spotless and very welcoming with lovely treats left! The site manager was also very helpful and welcoming - thank you! The bedrooms, all very comfortable - linen immaculate! The Kitchen had every possible utensil/gadget you could ask for! Outside area; lovely and clean, just a tiny suggestion of a heated pool or hot tub would of added to more use outside! Location; a reasonable distance when hiring a car to many of the beaches, towns etc (so many to choose from) we had an amazing experience at Lake Kournas (involving a energetic 8K hike up/down the mountains around the lake perimeter which was breathtaking - literally!) Old Chania, Rethmino and Agios Onoufrios were our highlights! Truly beautiful everywhere and great communication! 👍🏻🙏
