Holiday rentals in Vafes

My partner and I had the most incredible stay at this villa — it truly exceeded our expectations in every way. We fell in love with the peaceful, secluded location, the beautifully designed space, and all the thoughtful touches throughout the home. After the whirlwind of our wedding, this was exactly the kind of calm, relaxing retreat we needed. It felt like a private paradise. One moment that really stood out was how responsive and attentive our host was — after a dust storm rolled through, the pool needed a little love, and they had it cleaned and sparkling again in no time. It made such a difference and allowed us to fully enjoy every part of the property, inside and out. We grabbed a couple of their cards on the way out because we already know we’ll be back — this place is truly special, and the hospitality was top-notch. We’ll absolutely recommend it to any friends or family heading to Crete. Thank you again for an unforgettable stay. We’re already dreaming about our next trip

We had a very nice stay at Maria's place. The cottage is well furnished and there is a great garden. Maria was always on hand to help us and was extremely friendly. We got eggs for our breakfast and the oranges for our fruit juice were just allowed to pick in the garden. She also spoiled us with homemade pasties and Moroccan sweets. On top of that, we also got homemade olive oil. 😀 In short, a wonderful stay.

Without doubt THE BEST place we've ever been on holiday ❤️. The location is just perfect if you're looking for an 'off grid' place. The mountain views are outstanding and only interrupted by the sound of the mountain goats bells which are wonderfully melodic!. The hosts were wonderful providing us with a homemade Moussaka for our arrival 👌delivering fresh eggs from their hens later in the week. Google Maps brings you right to the villa and a small hire car can make it just take your time on the windy bits! If you're a cat lover you're in for a treat as there are a few beautiful young cats to feed (food provided by owners). Pool fabulous accommodation perfect. We are already booking for next year! 💯 the perfect place to wind down and recharge away from everything we couldn't recommend enough! ps Nikolaos was super helpful when we needed support on getting a flat tyre replaced 👌

Villa Fatima is truly beautiful, cozy, and welcoming hone - a perfect reflection of its captivating and talented hosts. Their genuine love for hospitality shines through in every thoughtful detail, making the experience feel both natural and wonderful. Words cannot fully express how much we enjoyed our stay and how deeply we appreciate your generosity. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! We would be delighted to come again and enjoy the house, The hosts and the charminng area of Vryses.

Beautiful stay! We booked as a large group that each desired their own space. The space is three floors, the top floor and entrance is the main space, we were shocked to find it was split over two levels with three large bedrooms each with its own bathroom, a lounge, kitchen and laundry. So much space!! Then you head down a level and you have a large studio like apartment with a large bed and convertible couch to bunk beds, kitchen and bathroom also in this space. The bottom level was also massive, with a large king bedroom with two pull out sofa single beds, a second large bedroom with two singles or a double and again both with bathrooms, a lounge and kitchen area. The grounds are massive, pool impressive, and the close by village traditional and quaint with two great walkable restaurants and antique shop. 7mins drive to supermarkets, 15 min drive from a great beach and bigger villages. So happy we found this villa! ❤️

The house is very cute and cozy, the yard is pittoresque and the village is very beautiful, a perfect choice if you want to see the other Crete, non massive touristic, relaxed and with such a strong natural scenery.

We very much enjoyed our stay here in Crete. The pictures don't do it justice, the little extra touches made it feel so homely and welcoming and Lykourgos was the perfect host. The best Airbnb we've stayed in and would definitely stay again!

This was one of the most beautiful Airbnb's we ever stayed! The house looks like something from fairy tales and the location is gorgeous. The house is quite well equipped and super clean. Ioannis was a great host, very responsive and helpful. I would definitely recommend and come back for a longer stay.
