Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Gournes Gouvon

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!

nous avons passé une belle semaine dans le logement de Maria. La terrasse couverte est la plus belle pièce de la maison avec une vue magnifique sur la mer. La plage est à moins de 5 min à pied, par contre attention, pour les personnes qui ont des difficultés à marcher, la pente est plutôt raide à remonter. Maria est très réactive et répond très vite aux messages. agia pelagia reste une petite station balnéaire très bien situé pour visiter le Nord de l'île. Belle découverte

השהות בבית של ג'ורג'יה היא הרבה מעבר למקום לישון בו. הבית יפיפה, מעוצב באהבה וכבוד למסורת המקומית והמשפחתית , כל פרט ורהיט נמצאים שם באהבה. מהריהוט המשופץ, ספרי האמנות, המטבח המקורי, ועד המיטות והמזרונים המפנקים. החצר הפנימית מאד נעימה ומטופחת. ג'ורג'יה מארחת נדיבה באנושיות הלבבית שלה, סיפקה לנו המלצות לסביבה, עזרה לנו בנדיבות רבה עם צ'ק אין מוקדם והיתה זמינה לכל שאלה או התיעצות. בית ואשה פשוט מעוררים השראה

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!

Having stayed in the area before, a quiet location was the most important aspect for me along with easy access to the beaches and a short walk into Hersonnisos. I couldn't have wished for a better location. The apartment was quiet with little traffic noise, compact and clean. The nearest beach was just a few minutes walk away with cafes and restaurants next to the beach. Hersonnisos itself was about 15 mins easy walk. The garden was a perfect spot for some sunbathing on those lazy days when you didn't want to leave comforts of home. It was an ideal suntrap. I didn't need anything from George on my 10 days, staying at Blue Coast Gardens -Juniper. but he was within easy reach with a whole host of helpful numbers and contacts made available, should have needed to contact him. It was great having a large comfortable double bed with good quality bedding and Aircon if it got too hot at night. All the equipment provided was in great working order, the apartment spotlessly clean. Loved it!!

Wir waren 6 Tage in Amandas schönem Haus. Alles war blitzsauber. Die Küche groß, mit allem was man braucht. Wir haben das Haus nicht gleich gefunden, es liegt etwas versteckt. Amanda kam gleich und hat uns dort hingebracht. Die obere Terrasse ist groß und sehr gemütlich für das Frühstück und abends zum Ausklingen des Tages. 2 Tavernen sind zu Fuß schnell erreichbar. Man kann dort gut und supergünstig essen. Was uns besonders an Limnes gefallen hat, waren die Bewohner. Sie waren alle superfreundlich und total hilfsbereit. Wir waren mit unserem kleinen Hund dort. Leider sind Hunde im Norden Kretas an den Stränden (z.B Elounda) nicht erwünscht. Deshalb werden wir weiterhin wieder in den Süden gehen, wo wir seit 20 Jahren unsere Urlaube verbringen. Vielen Dank an Amanda für die Überlassung ihres urgemütlichen Hauses!

Alles war mega toll und die Haushälterin war super nett und hilfsbereit. Die Bilder entsprechen der Unterkunft und die Gegend war sehr schön.

Matthaios è stato veramente molto gentile ed attento. Sempre a disposizione e, se impossibilitato per qualsiasi evenienza, la madre o la moglie si sono mostrate sempre presenti. La casa è accogliente, tranquilla e vicinissima al mare (50 metri) e accessoriata con tutti i comfort. Facile da raggiungere dall'aereoporto di Heraklion e comoda per raggiungere le belle spiagge vicine. Consigliatissimo.

We had an amazing 1 week stay at this beautiful place. Also the host was so sweet in helping us. She made sure we found the house during night time and got some food for us for breakfast. Also the place was very clean and the kitchen has everything you need. This place is just magical with the beautiful sunrise every morning. Also the inside of the house and spots outside the house give a very cozy feeling. We would also definitly recommend to hire the chef-kok for a night. It was one of the highlights of our stay because of the amazing food and their kindness to us. Would love to come here again!

Superbe villa avec piscine privée et vue incroyable, dans un secteur très calme et magnifique proche d’Heraklion. George est très réactif et très flexible. Je reviendrais.

This was our 4th stay at Giannis' place and as always it was perfect. The property is exactly as pictured and described, so comfortable, with amazing outdoor space and everything you need (great WiFi, smart TV, great shower, plenty of towels and bed linen, etc). The outdoor space is the major selling point, with lots of different relaxing areas, plenty of shade, and a fabulous pool. And stunning views to boot! Agios Myron is a lovely little town: if you go please make sure to visit the local bar, restaurant, bakery and shop, all run by lovely people. Looking forward to returning again next year!

We just loved everything about this airbnb!!!!! The house was AMAZING, incredible views, incredible features, we went to the pool, did barbecue, breakast with ocean view, everything and more we expected! Konstations is THE BEST host we ever got!! Not only he was hiper reactive, attentious ( he made sure to got us on the airport so we arrive well, his mom cooked us food because they would imagine we would arrive late and hungry), incredibly generous and nice!! We have many tips and support during the full trip ! Everything and more that we expected! Thank you again

Antonias Appartment is beautyful, very Close to restaurants and bars. The terrasse is just the most perfekt place to chill and relax. We loved every minute and hat a great time.

We had a fantastic two nights stay at Vivi's who is a ever so positive and proactive host together with her lovely husband. She so much took care of our needs and "fed us like her children" :) The apartment is quietly situated and is a gem to all lovers of cats and dogs.

Jekaterina hat uns sehr herzlich und super flexibel empfangen. Unser Flug hatte abends Verspätung und dann waren unsere Koffer auch noch weg. Sie hat sofort ihre Hilfe angeboten und super schnell auf fragen reagiert. Sie macht das ganze Management rund ums Haus ganz, ganz toll! Das Haus ist genauso wie in der Beschreibung. Eine fantastische Außenanlagen und in 3 min ist man am Strand. Wir bedanken uns recht herzlich bei Jekaterina, dass sie unser Host war und schicken ganz liebe Grüße nach Kreta.

Diana et son frère ont été très réactifs, maison très propre avec de nombreuses possibilités à pied : commerces, plages, restaurants. Nous recommandons cette location.

My friends and I had a lovely stay here. The place was clean and well equipped, the pool area was lovely as well. I would say that it was slightly difficult to find, we arrived after dark and the villa is down a dirt track that is easily missed, but it is much clearer in the day time. The hosts were responsive and even kindly drove my friend to the airport when her taxi didn't arrive. I would love to stay again in the future :)

magnifique appartement très spacieux et magnifique vue sur la mer et l'île d'en face. Le logement est bien équipé et le propriétaire a pensé à rendre le séjour le plus agréable possible. il ne manquait rien (papier de toilette, cotons tiges, huile d'olive, sucre, café, biscottes, confiture et j'en passe...). seul bémol : il n'y a pas de lave- linge mais un lave-vaisselle, je pense qu'il s'agit d'une mauvaise traduction ! en cas de problème, le propriétaire est très réactif et très rapide. on a adoré notre séjour et c'est sûr que nous reviendrons avec beaucoup de plaisir.

Super Lage, viele Bars, Restaurants und Clubs, sowie den Strand zu Fuß zu erreichen. Sehr netter Kontakt. Alles super !

בית כפרי מהמם עם נוף עוצר נשימה. פוטיני מארחת נפלאה, אדיבה וטובת לב. לא חסר לנו דבר מלבד עוד זמן לשהות במקום. מומלץ מאוד

I’ve stayed here before and always come back! The location is central, but when you close the balcony door, you can’t hear any noise from the main street. Dani welcomed us very warmly and is an amazing host.

Fantastic stay at this wonderful village house in beautiful peaceful Milatos, we cannot recommend this accommodation highly enough, exactly as pictured and described , host was amazing as was the delicious meal she left for our first night! Great amenities within house too. Great location to drive through mountains to elounda and agios Nikoliaos , we went straight south to beaches there too. All the restaurants on the front were amazing bar with no name fab through to Socrates so friendly and cheap €45 for two with wine . Old neighbour we sat and had a beer with although dialect was limited. Thank you again we will be back and telling everyone to come 🥰

Εξαιρετική εμπειρία! Το σπίτι ήταν πεντακάθαρο, άνετο και πολύ φιλόξενο. Η τοποθεσία ήσυχη και ιδανική για χαλάρωση, με απόλυτη ιδιωτικότητα. Θα το επέλεγα ξανά χωρίς δεύτερη σκέψη!

We very much enjoyed staying in Manos' house. The facilities there are very good, including a lovely garden, plenty of cutlery and crockery and the house was clean with comfortable beds. Nearby in Gournes there is a set of very good small shops including a supermarket, a butcher and a baker where you can buy local produce. The house is close to the airport so quick to get to on arrival. There are good roads nearby so it is possible to explore the area with ease . We recommend visiting Knossos, and the Lathisi plateau.
