Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Decentralized Administration of Crete

This place was an amazing place to stay, the views are the best views you can get if you want a wonderful sunset. I would highly recommend staying here. The beds were comfortable, and the host is very kind. They also were thoughtful with setting out and providing the toiletries and left a little snack in the fridge with homemade products. I would absolutely recommend staying here

Eugenia and Mihalis place is a beautiful and charming house high in the mountains with stunning views from the terrace of surrounding mountains. The accommodation was comfortable, clean with all the amenities for an enjoyable stay. Set within easy reach of beach for swimming and lovely hikes through gorges and scenic coastal waters. Eugenia and Mihalis made finding them easy with directions, and a very welcoming arrival. Our stay was made very enjoyable by the charming and helpful couple with coffee in the morning, treats and home cooked delicious dinners on offer. Help with destinations, boat trips, hikes etc were much appreciated. Thank you Eugenia and Mihalis.

This house is an extremely special place. The view from the balcony into the valley was absolutely stunning, the furnishings are lovely and tasteful, and the recommendations that Apo provided were spot on. The tavern in the village fed us fit to burst, and we couldn’t stop talking about how we hope to return again someday. Thank you for sharing this beautiful space with us ❤️

Absolutely loved this airbnb. Small deck overlooking the Chania Bay lighthouse and all the restaurants surrounding the bay. Airbnb at end and had a great restaurant (with blue chairs) that had great food. Beds were comfortable and back bedroom was very quiet as well. The owner met us at check-in and explained everything. Top deck was very nice to sit, my husband actually pulled out his laptop and worked on the table for awhile. He was in heaven. But we enjoyed sitting on small deck off living space too. Husband and myself w our two young adult children loved that we were so close to everything. Do not hesitate to book this airbnb.

The Arch House ist ein wunderbarer Platz mit schönem Garten und Blick in Olivenhaine. Innen ist es liebevoll gestaltet und wirklich gut ausgestattet. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen und es uns gemütlich gemacht. Das geht dort sehr gut! Zumal wir den Großeinkauf vorher erledigt hatten, der örtliche Supermarkt ist zwar gut sortiert, aber die Auswahl ist dann doch übersichtlich. Zakros ist ein charmantes Örtchen, hübsch gelegen und umgeben von schöner Natur. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!

Had an absolutely beautiful stay at this apartment. The location is absolutely perfect for a relaxing get away. The property is really well equipped and has everything you could need. Maria was super friendly, responsive and communicated really well throughout our visit. We visited just before the main season and Mochlos was quiet and sleepy, just waking up. You'll need a car if you want to explore the island from here. Cannot recommend this property enough - we just had the most lovely time.

This is our second time in Mochlos, we love it and Popi's apartment is perfect to relax and enjoy the views and surroundings. I can highly recommend it, we hope to stay again in the future.

Très beau logement typique, bien équipé et propre. Wifi impeccable. Deux terrasses avec une vue magnifique sur la baie de Mirabello. Le logement se situe dans un petit village en bord de montagne, très reposant et calme (ce que nous recherchions). A proximité à pied d’un petit restaurant typique. La situation permet de visiter la Crète orientale : gorges de Christi, plages comme Vai ou Mochlos, Agios Nikolaos, Ierapetra (départs en bateau),… Des balades à pied possibles au départ du village. Notre hôte nous avait déjà donné en avance une multitude d’infos pour bien préparer notre séjour. Mention particulière pour l’accueil : à notre arrivée, notre hôte avait mis des tomates, des concombres et de la fêta dans le frigo, pour que nous puissions préparer une excellente salade crétoise. Il y avait même une bouteille de vin bien fraiche. Bref, nous recommandons sans hésitation.

Maria is a fantastic host. She met my husband and me at the bus stop and showed us around the apartment and neighborhood, giving us recommendations for dining and things to do. Her apartment is located in the heart of Old Town just steps away from the waterfront, great restaurants (we especially loved Tamam), and shopping. She stocked the apartment with everything we'd need for our visit, including beach towels, breakfast items, candy, guidebooks, and more. The apartment itself is cozy and comfortable in a charming building. Despite a decent amount of foot traffic nearby, it was quiet at night. We had the best sleep of our 10-day trip to Greece during our three-night stay. I can't recommend Maria's place enough for a visit to Chania!

Very nice Airbnb in a great location walkable to the port, perfect for ferry access. Airbnb was spotless, had a nice balcony and very nice lighting features throughout. Host was quickly responsive & friendly! Thanks for a great stay

Es war so schön dort! Die perfekte Kombination aus Strand, Meer und Stadt. Die Lage ist perfekt. Der Strand direkt vor der Nase, aber gleichzeitig kann man ein paar Minuten zu Fuß laufen und durch die vielen Touri Shops bummeln. Es gibt Einkaufsmöglichkeiten direkt in der Nähe. Auch Restaurants, Cafes und Strandbars sind in der Nähe. Der Strand ist sauber und man kann schön ins Wasser gehen. Das Stadtzentrum ist nur ein paar Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt und ich habe gesehen dass es auch eine super Busanbindung gibt. Zudem war Georgios super nett. Ohne Nachfragen hat er uns so viele Tipps für die Umgebung geschickt, die echt hilfreich waren. Sonntags gab es leider wegen starkem Wind Sahara Staub der mit einer Regenschauer runterkam und die tolle Terasse war komplett braun und nicht mehr nutzbar. Wir haben Georgios angeschrieben und er war innerhalb kürzester Zeit da um die Terasse wieder sauber zu machen. Einfach ein riesiges Dankeschön für alles, es war ein toller Urlaub:)

Abbiamo avuto il piacere di soggiornare nell’appartamento di Rena dal 26/5 al 2/6/‘25 ed è stata un’esperienza fantastica! L’appartamento era come da descrizione ma la vista dal terrazzo ha superato anche le aspettative! Purtroppo non abbiamo potuto conoscere Rena personalmente ma è sempre stata presente ad ogni nostra richiesta, ci aveva avvisati in anticipo che il Market del paese sarebbe stato ancora chiuso così abbiamo potuto premunirci di spesa prima di arrivare ma lei comunque ci ha fatto trovare in casa di tutto (grazie ancora!). In casa è presente ogni tipo di accessorio utile per la cucina ma anche delle accortezze che non avevo mai trovato in altre occasioni! La strada per raggiungere questo piccolo Paesino è parecchio tortuosa ma noi stavamo così bene lì che ci siamo spostati solo una volta. Ci sono 2/3 spiagge (dove spesso eravamo da soli) raggiungibile con una bella passeggiata in mezzo al nulla respirando il profumo dell’origano! Speriamo di poterci ritornare!

Absolutely perfect! The location was ideal - walkable to Old Chania, but just far enough to be quiet at night. Everything was very clean, and having a washing machine was a huge plus. Best of all, Elina had LOTS of incredible local recommendations. Don't think twice before booking!

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. Giannis was an excellent host. He welcomed us with a warm pastry, fresh fruits, wine and bottled water. The apartment had everything we needed. The location was perfect. We had a car and having our own parking space was fantastic. We traveled to different areas of the island and it was a convenient home base. Giannis gave us several recommendations from restaurants to beautiful beaches, and they were all great. We especially enjoyed the terrace. It has a beautiful view of the sea and it is very peaceful. We watched the sunrise a few mornings and it was breathtaking. A highlight of the stay was Hamlet, Giannis dog! He was there to welcome us and visited us daily. We would not hesitate to stay there again. It is a beautiful place and you won’t be disappointed.

The photos do not do this beautiful place justice. The flowers and greens are so bright, and you have a view of mountains and the sea. Tina is incredibly kind and accommodating, and very easy to communicate with. She sent me home with some wonderful herbs from her garden - they smell amazing! She also treated me to some homemade Cretan cake she baked at the start of my trip. As a solo traveller, this was incredibly special and I am so grateful to her. Driving around the area is fantastic with so many beaches and hikes in the surrounding area. The space is very clean and comfortable! I hope to one day return.

Great location, very short walk to the port, beautiful view of the ocean from the balcony. The host was extremely responsive and always willing to help make our stay comfortable! Apartment was very clean and the jacuzzi is a great feature. Multiple cafe’s/bars just downstairs with great food, drinks, and service. Highly recommend staying at this property if you want to be close to the venetian port and all Chania has to offer.

Rauhallinen alue, remontoidut puhtaat huoneet. Meillä oli oranssi huone, joka sijaitsee kellarissa pienillä ikkunoilla kadulle. Huone ei lämmennyt helteillä joka oli mahtavaa! Majoituimme 8 yötä, huoneessa oli saippuat ja shampoot valmiina. Sekä pientä naposteltavaa. Tämä oli ihana yllätys 🙏Rakennuksessa oli pyykkitupa, jossa pystyi pesemään vaatteita. Tämä oli mahtavaa koska me reissattiin vain repuilla. Omistaja oli ystävällinen ja avulias. Iso suositus!! 10/10

This is absolutely our favorite Airbnb that we've ever stayed in (and we've stayed in a lot). The place is adorable. Katerina is very responsive and lives right by the apartment. The view is wonderful, and both the living room and twin bedroom have doors that open onto that view. It has everything you need and more, with Katerina providing treats and even cereal and milk for that first morning. The air conditioning worked well, but there is also a lovely breeze from the sea. There are tons of restaurants and cafes just below the apartment as well as with 5 and 10 minutes walk in Old Town. It would be comfortable for a couple and a third person (such as a child) or two people, each with their own room. The washing machine was great to have, and you can dry clothes on the lines off the balcony. We did not want to leave.

Pobyt v Athina's apartmánu byl velmi příjemný, všechno jsme měli na dosah. Cesta na letiště trvá něco málo přes 15 minut a zastávka je pár metrů od budovy. Vybavení bytu bylo krásné a cítili jsme se tam jako doma. Součástí vybavení byla i klimatizace, která byla skvělým společníkem, zároveň jsme rádi využívali i balkon, kde se člověk mohl nasnídat. Komunikace s hostitelkou byla vždy pohotová, získali jsme potřebné informace a k bytu jsme se dostali hned. I příjezd byl velmi flexibilní, což jsme hodně ocenili.

Tasos est un hôte extrêmement accueillant. À notre arrivée tardive, nous avons trouvé un frigo et un congélateur généreusement garni. Des fruits, des confitures, des biscottes et des boissons fraîches et chaudes nous attendaient. Et Tasos a été absolument adorable pour nous faciliter le séjour. Nous lui en sommes très reconnaissants. Son appartement est très agréable , le jacuzzi et la vue magnifique en font une perle rare. Nous recommandons vivement cette location, encore plus appréciée grâce aux nombreux détails auxquels Tasos a pensé.

Wir waren total begeistert! Die Wohnung ist etwas ganz Besonderes – mit so viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet, dass man sich vom ersten Moment an einfach wohlfühlen muss. Alles war super sauber, stilvoll und gleichzeitig unglaublich gemütlich. Man merkt, wie viel Herzblut hier drin steckt. Ein rundum toller Aufenthalt – absolut empfehlenswert!

A lovely modern condo in the heart of Heraklion. Located next to a mini market and delicious bakery, this spot is in a great location. We especially loved the rooftop space!

amazing stay in crete! my husband and I couldn't be happier!

We had such a great time here! Nikos' place looks exactly as advertised, if not more beautiful. I especially adored the high ceiling, spacial living room/kitchen and lots of natural light. In May Greek weather it's a perfect appartment to comfortably sit outside/inside and sleep at night. The center of Chania is about 10 minutes away by car so a rental car is recommended. Luckily you can easily park it right next to the house. You can also get a taxi to get there, which costs for us 10-15 euros for 2 people. The communication with Nikos was lovely. He gave recommendations, answered questions quickly and made it so everything was clear and comfortable for us.
