Fitness-friendly holiday rentals in Decentralized Administration of Crete

A wonderful week at the end of the season. Peaceful, well equipped and great views. Lovely host, felt so welcome. Perfect.

Mike was great from the start…we booked last minute and he texted me immediately. He made everything very easy and was extremely friendly when we got there to check in. He showed us everything about the apartment that we needed to know and gave us lots of tips on where to go to eat and to see the best sites. The rooftop space was beautiful and the apartment was very close to everything in the area… We were able to walk to everything! I would definitely recommend staying there… Thank you, Mike!

I had a wonderful stay at Agave Suites! The location is a 2 min walk to the old city but still very quiet. The room was spacious and Nikos was always responsive to my questions and recommended some wonderful restaurants in Chania. Would absolutely stay here again!

Very nice place, clear constructions from the host, some sweats & local beverage to welcome the guests, really worth it!

Das im ersten Stock über einer guten Bäckerei gelegene Einzimmerappartement entsprach den Fotos. Der Balkon ist größer gewesen, als erwartet. Der freundliche Vermieter hat uns gut mit Erzeugnissen aus seinem Garten versorgt. Das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis hat gestimmt.

Nous avons eu un accueil exceptionnel de la part d'Andreas et Maria. Le logement est impeccable, le coin piscine très appréciable et la vue mer superbe. Nous avons adoré déjeuner le matin sur la terrasse au calme. Leur taverne est vraiment a faire, la nourriture est incroyable et l accueil merveilleux ! Nous vous remercions infiniment pour ce séjour.

Hidden gem! Loved this home, literally two minute walk to Golden Beach. Katerina is so sweet (she met us in-person, had local restaurant recommendations, and even provided a bottle of wine). The home was perfect for our group of 6 (great value for the money, too). Would 100% come again!

Wir haben uns wohl gefühlt und wurden von George super freundlich empfangen und mit Reise- Restaurant Tipps durch den Urlaub begleitet, die Kommunikation fand sehr simpel, zuverlässig und zügig über w.a. statt, was wir als sehr angenehm empfanden. Wir haben hervorragende Restauranttipps von George erhalten! Unterkunft ist sehr gepflegt und sauber, eine schöne bepflanzte Außenanlage, super Aussicht auf das Meer, den Pool konnten wir wetterbedingt leider nicht nutzen, sah aber sehr einladend aus. Durch die steile Hanglage kommt man zu Fuß nur bedingt voran, weshalb unser Mietwagen goldwert war...lohnt sich eh, Kreta hat so viel zu bieten. Gute Ausgangslage für Ausflüge mit dem Auto zur Inselerkundung.

Fantastic place. Great views from the sun terrace overlooking the bay, so could sit and watch boats and cruise ships on their way to Chania. Only 5 mins walk down a gentle hill to the beach, shops & restaurants. Felt very private, although there were other apartments there, it is laid out so you are not overlooked. Everything was spotlessly clean on arrival and apartment staff were there every day keeping the pool and surrounding areas clean & tidy. Gas BBQ on the terrace was great. Good choice of restaurants along the beach, as well as a few small supermarkets in the centre. 40 mins drive from the airport and well positioned for visiting Chania (which was beautiful) and exploring the area. We had a thoroughly relaxing stay and have already recommended it to friends, and would definitely stay again. Kreta Eiendom's team were very responsive, when we had a small issue during our stay.

Es war super schön hier. Wir wurden herzlich empfangen und die Kommunikation verlief reibungslos. Die Unterkunft ist wie auf den Bildern. Man ist ein bisschen am Berg oben, was super schön ist, da es dort viel ruhiger ist. In die Stadt und zum Strand kommt man super zu Fuß. Wir waren sehr zufrieden.

Best airbnb we have ever stayed at because of Andonis's (and his mother, Maria, who lives in the same complex) hospitality. Andonis gave us great recommendations and even dropped off a bottle of delicious rose. Maria made our stay feel like a home. She brought us oranges from her garden for fresh juice, dolma made with zucchini flower, and spanakopita. The kitchen was also fully equipped so we were able to cook at home at least two meals a day. If we return to Crete, we can't wait to stay again.

The place is quite clean and quiet. It is located the top floor and the ocean view from the room is wonderful. It has sufficient kitchen equipment, large living and bed rooms. A free parking spot is close by. I recommend this place.

Giannis est l'hospitalité, la gentillesse et la générosité incarnées et un hôte particulièrement attentionné. L'appartement est très bien situé à proximité de la plage, de commerces et restaurants, le centre ville étant à environ 15 mn à pied. La vue du balcon est magnifique ! Sans doute un des meilleurs accueils de Crète, nous recommandons 😊

Eva‘s apartement was super clean and exactly like she described. Our plane was late but our check-in was flexible thanks to Eva. She made us feel at home right away and also came bearing gifts for us, traditional Raki and amazingly fresh fruits (her figs were delicious!!). She also sent us many recommendations on what to do, which restaurant to check out and her preferred beaches etc. Also, we were able to park our rental car at her property. We stayed only 10 days which was too short as always. The bedroom was perfectly dark thanks to the blinds so our sleep was deep and recharging. Overall, I can fully recommend Eva‘s place. It‘s a perfect place to chill and relax and it‘s not too far away from the beaches and restaurants. Thanks for making our stay so awesome!

From the start, Sia and her husband were very warm and welcoming. At check-in, they walked us through the apartment, which looked exactly like the photos. The view is fantastic from the front balcony. Everything was very clean. Loved that there were electronic blinds for most windows. We rented a car and there was a parking spot available for us in Sia's garage. We did find the bed a bit too hard for our tastes (to each their own!), and we sometimes had trouble with the wifi dropping in the main bedroom. Overall, we loved Sia's place and would stay there again!

Ioanna was the most incredible host we have ever had, she is very thoughtful, the apartment was great, with lots of little extras like food and beverages for us. The outside terrace is amazing, a great place to eat, relax, and hang out. The kitchen and bathroom are well stocked with everything a traveler would need. The location is close to the beach and restaurants and walkable to the old town, and also quiet. Ioanna was a great communicator and kept us well fed, arranged transportation to the airport, and quickly answered any questions I had. I highly recommend this place, and I hope that we can stay there again someday!

We hebben zeer genoten van dit verblijf in Rethimnon! Heerlijke bedden, warm water, een ruim balkon.. en een grote ruimte met sportapparatuur, een TV met streamingsdiensten om 's avonds even bij te komen. Zeer luxe! Georgios en zijn vrouw zijn zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam, de beste hosts die je je maar kunt wensen. De locatie is rustig en net iets buiten het centrum. Voorzieningen zoals een supermarkt, strand en boulevard zijn op loopafstand vanaf het appartement. Enige nadeel waren de wegwerkzaamheden rondom, wat wel invloed had op het uitzicht. Al met al een fantastisch verblijf en kan deze dan ook honderd procent aanbevelen!

We can highly recommend this accommodation. It's tucked away in a very secluded spot, which makes it wonderfully peaceful. At the same time, you can reach restaurants and a mini market in just a few minutes. A car is essential! The garden is stunning. The biodiversity is incredible. There's always something new to discover. The house is quite small and simply furnished, but that was absolutely fine. Everything was clean, and that's what matters most. The long driveway leading to the house can be a bit intimidating—it just slopes down without any railing or guard. But that’s just part of the Cretan charm. Giannis was always very friendly and helpful—thank you for everything! We also got to know the neighboring family and even visited them. Such kind people. And the animals! Aphroditi the horse, a peacock, chickens, and turkeys—our daughter loved them. Overall a great experience. We were very happy and would definitely recommend it. Who knows—maybe we’ll be back in a few years!

Irini est une propriétaire chaleureuse et à l'écoute de ses hôtes. À travers toutes ses petites attentions, sa flexibilité et sa bonne humeur on ne peut que se sentir comme à la maison ! L'environnement est apaisant, l'appartement conforme aux photos et le jacuzzi un vrai plus ! Nous n'avons pas pu profiter de la piscine à cause du temps mais le cadre est agréable, elle est à partager avec la famille d'Irini qui est aussi sympathique qu'elle. Vous aurez de temps en temps la visite de son chat et au loin du chien. Je ne peux que recommander en espérant revenir un jour et y découvrir l'évolution du site🥰. Merci pour tout !

I had the pleasure of staying at Villa Majo with my family for two weeks in August. The villa itself is beautiful and ideally located in Agia Palagia, just 20 minutes from Heraklion and about the same distance from the airport. The property is brand new and impeccably maintained, featuring five comfortable bedrooms. The upstairs rooms offer stunning sea views, making mornings truly special. What truly sets this place apart is the exceptional hospitality. Maria, the owner, is incredibly attentive and goes above and beyond to cater to your every need, acting almost like a personal concierge. Whether it's arranging beach trips, restaurant reservations, or even a manicure, Maria has it covered. And the massage—simply the best I've ever had! Rena, who looks after the villa, prepares and serves delicious breakfasts daily and cooks amazing dinners in their charming wine room, separate from the main house. Her culinary skills are outstanding. I highly recommend villa Majo. Perfect stay !

We stayed a week and couldn’t have been happier with the accommodations. The house is quiet and spacious with everything we needed. The whole town is easily walkable and very peaceful, full of kind people.

We hebben als gezin twee fantastische weken gehad in Villa Emanuelle. Het was een fantastisch verblijf waar met liefde en aandacht van de host alles tot in de puntjes verzorgd was. Altijd bereikbaar voor tips en bijzonder behulpzaam in de voorbereiding. Niets was te veel en zelf een gevulde koelkast bij aankomst. de Kreteense gastvrijheid in optima forma. Met recht een parel van een villa!

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 !

I recently stayed at this beautiful villa in Greece, and it exceeded all my expectations! The property is stunning, with breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape and a fantastic pool that was perfect for cooling off during the hot days. The villa itself is spacious, clean, and well-maintained, with all the amenities you could need for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and the bedrooms were cozy and inviting. I particularly loved spending time on the terrace, enjoying the serene views and the tranquil atmosphere. The location is ideal, situated in a nice, quiet area but still close to local attractions, beaches, and charming villages. It was the perfect base for exploring the beauty of Greece. The host was incredibly welcoming and responsive, providing excellent recommen
