Villa holiday rentals in Kavousi

The pictures don’t do this view justice. It’s breathtaking! The home is gorgeous and the outdoor space is wonderful. It was too cold for us to swim but we still enjoyed time at the beach. Most of the immediate area was already shut down for the season during our stay but there is a lovely area about a mile walk away. We spent a lot of time there enjoying the coffee shops and restaurants. The house and rooms were fantastic and there was more than enough space for everyone to relax. The host was amazing and went above and beyond to help us when we left some glasses at a restaurant. Thank you so much for a great stay!!

Very friendly host, we accidentally got their key with us and he agreed on us shipping it back. Moreover, we took on our way out a bag of groceries that we thought it was ours and he was extremely kind although it was our mistake. The place is super spacious and with great views, totally recommend it!

Es war eine super Unterkunft, wir fühlten uns rund um wohl, super essen in der Taverne vor der Haustür Idealer Ausgangspunkt für Wanderung und Relaxen Wir können uns bei den Gastgeber nur Bedanken für den angenehmen Aufenthalt

la.maison est grande, luxueuse, parfaitement aménagée avec beaucoup de goût chaque chambre dispose de sa salle de bain et de toilettes et les literies sont excellentes Roméo est très sympathique et nous a accueilli très agréablement.

Die Begrüssung mit offenen Armen hat die Zeit etwas zurückgedreht: In die ursprüngliche airbnb-Zeit, die immer persönlich und oft herzlich war. Danke, dass wir das wieder einmal erleben durften! Das Haus ist äusserst geräumig und überrascht mit zwei Badezimmern mit zwei Duschen (+ je WC und immer genügend Warmwasser). Ein unglaubliches Auge fürs Detail macht das Wohnen in Giorgios Unterkunft immer wieder spannend :-) Richtig gute Matratzen sind mit dabei - erholsam! Der Aussenbereich ist unschlagbar: Man tritt in „in vier Phasen“ aus dem Haus… von innen zu halb-aussen zu aussen-halb-innen zu wirklich aussen :-D und überall kann man sich entspannen, je mach Lust und Laune. Die Zufahrt von Gra Lygia zum Haus erfordert etwas Vorsicht. Die Katzen sind superlieb, herzig und top erzogen/gepflegt sowie ernährt - wow! Danke Giorgios für die gemütlichen Austausche und frische Gurken-Überraschung, wenn du nicht gerade am Arbeiten warst. Danke seiner Frau für die gebackene Überraschung! Hingehen!

Hospitality is considered one of the oldest cultural assets - particularly on Crete. Both, Giannis and Eleftheria, are hospitable people par excellence. We enjoyed our stay in the villa very much. Efcharistó!

Plaka was absolutely lovely! this Villa made it so much better! Always responsive and great local recommendations. I ended up having issues with my car rental and they referred me to Christos Taxi which were amazing! The villa itself has beautiful views and very convenient to local restaurants, grocery stores and all beach areas. Definitely coming back and staying here!

Wir hatten einen extrem schönen Aufenthalt in der Villa. Der Pool und die Aussicht sind einfach atemberaubend. Die Zimmer sind sehr geräumig und es gibt viel Platz zum entspannen. Alles war sehr sauber und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Vielen Dank für alles Stavros. Wir kommen wieder!

We had the best time! Maria was so friendly and everything was perfect. We were even invited to eat dinner with them and had a blast. We were 14 people and we had plent of space for us all. It was clean and we even got new towels in the middle of the week which we did not expect. Would absolutely recommend staying there.

Me and my family had a great week at Villa Aires. The house is very special - set on a mountain side with incredible views up and down the valley. The sunsets each evening were perfectly framed by the landscape and some of the most beautiful we have seen. We hired a vehicle for the duration of the holiday and I would say this is essential for a holiday here - the price you pay for the stunning surroundings is that the house is quite remote, only the local village is walkable (charming but just a couple of restaurants and a small shop on offer). A car also gives you the opportunity to explore this area of Crete which has lots to offer with beaches, history, markets, harbours, beautiful towns. As long as you’re happy with the location, this villa is a no brainer. We would stay again without hesitation!

We have just had the most gorgeous family holiday at Villa Belle Helene . It is the perfect villa equipped to the highest standards both inside and out and exceeded all our expectations. Inside is spacious and all the rooms have excellent air conditioning which was very welcome in the heat. We spent a lot of time enjoying the outdoor areas, especially the pool and jacuzzi which were perfect to cool down in the heat and to enjoy. The sheltered area outside the lounge is perfect for eating and BBQs and the raised outdoor seating area with TV provides the opportunity to unwind in an evening. It is 10 mins walk up to Old Hersonnissus which has a lovely square with Tavernas and bars. Hiring a car is worthwhile to explore the island further but not essential as its easy to book taxis. Eleni and her family are absolutely lovely, they could not be more helpful and made us so welcome. We would absolutely recommend this villa and would love to stay again if we go back to Crete.

We had a wonderful holiday at the beautiful Villa Cristina! The view is unforgettable, sunrise is especially magical! The Villa has a tranquil setting in the hillside but there is a lovely little seaside village nearby. Liza was very responsive to any requests and helpful with recommendations. We would highly recommend!

La villa était superbe, décorée avec beaucoup de goût ! Le linge de lit et serviettes étaient impeccable de très bonne qualité : Guy Laroche. La cuisine était assez bien équipée : nous avons eu pendant quelques jours un chef cuisinier sous la recommandation de Stefani et c’était juste incroyablement bon et belle découverte. Le petit village à côté est très mignon et non loin de la villa : ce qui était pratique. La villa est idéalement bien située. Nous pensions que la villa était dans un endroit un peu « seule » mais ce n’était pas totalement le cas; ce qui nous a fait un peu peur au début et finalement c’était très calme, agréable. Chez Antonis et Stefani nous nous sentons vraiment comme à la maison : c’était très propre à notre arrivée. Stefani nous a accueilli chaleureusement, elle a été une hôte très réactive et répondant de façon très efficace dès que nous avions une question ou un petit problème. Elle est souriante c’est fort agréable. Nous recommandons leur villa.

Amazing villa. Absolutely beautiful. Well equipped. Beds very comfortable. Beautiful bedding and towels. Toiletries. Welcome hamper. We will definitely return. 4 fantastic restaurants within 5min walk. Quiet. BBQ at villa to use. Lovely loungers. Manolis and his wife fantastic hosts. Nothing was too much trouble. Easy to contact. We highly recommend the villa and location. Thank you for such an amazing visit

We had a wonderful holiday. The villa is lovely and was perfect for a big family. Audrey is a great host who was so helpful throughout but especially with the challenges of the late arrival and checkout. Location is great and facilities were also great and exceeded expectations. A special mention for Wayne (the handyman), he took care of the garden, pool etc and is a bit of a legend👏. We would definitely look to book here again.

Met een groep van 9 vrienden een fantastisch verblijf gehad. Het huis was prachtig en de tuin met zwembad ook ook. Ook erg aardig dat we bij het uitchecken nog konden verblijven in een ander resort van manolis voordat we naar het vliegveld moesten. Dankjewel namens alle boys!

Unsere Woche in der Unterkunft war einfach traumhaft. Die Unterkunft entspricht den Fotos in vollem Umfang. Die Ausstattung ist top und der Blick aus den oberen Schlafzimmern ist herrlich. Man kann auch über einen kleinen Pfad zur Bucht unten gelangen. Claudia war eine tolle Ansprechpartnerin, antwortet schnell und hat uns im ihren Tipps einen tollen Aufenthalt ermöglicht. Sie hat auch Restaurants für uns reserviert. Die Unterkunft ist eine 10/10 und wir (7 Mädels) können sie voll weiterempfehlen.

One of the best stays in airbnb over the years. Perfect place for staying with kids, lots of toys and everything. Our 3 year old son was really enjoyed. Giannis and Mara were really helpful about everything. They booked us transfer from airport for late night arrival and booked us a rental car for the next morning which we picked up at the door of the villa! This was one of the easiest and convenient option. I left my sunglasses at the rental car, they found it and will send me by shipping. Best hosts and best place to stay! Hope to meet you again.

L'environnement est très calme et très privé. Une belle vue sur les montagnes et l'espace extérieur bien aménagé, avec une petite piscine. La taverne Stavrakakis à 2 km de la maison vaut le détour ! Il faut aussi aller à Kritsa pour visiter une magnifique église Panagias Keras et pour acheter des produits locaux élaborés par une coopérative de femmes ! Des nombreux sites archéologiques, notamment la cité ancienne de Lato, sont à une courte distance de la maison. Nous étions accueillis par Maria ; ses conseils et son assistance tout le long de notre séjour ont été très appréciables.

When you're looking for a quite place with privacy than this the place you are looking for. Surrounded by olive trees, close (but not too close) to the village and the sea side. A lovely villa with a nice (and very clean) pool that gives refreshment in the hot summer time. The villa is well equipped. Tips about the region come from Manos ... but we have to admit that we've had some lazy days in Zakros and did not visit all what Manos proposed :-). We've went to a few beaches but for us Kato Zakros (only 12 minutes drive -- lovely views by the way) was the ideal place. Not too busy and really nice restaurants on the beach. 100% chill.

We had a great stay! The location was perfect – very quiet, yet ideal for exploring the island. Everything was clean and exactly like in the photos. Communication was flawless, they responded immediately and were very helpful. I would definitely recommend this place to my friends and family!

Place was great! View and pool were amazing features , the hosts waited for our arrival and checked in on us after the earthquake, accommodations were great! Enough space and a clean space. Would recommend having a car , a little car for walking but with the rental car it made it easy for us and everything is maybe 10 mins away, a lot of good towns to check out, one of our favourites was Agios

Séjour incroyable en famille dans la villa que nous propose Nikos ! L’hôte est tellement accueillant et réactif à nos demandes, c’était parfait !! De bon cœur et très bienveillant (malgré notre anglais imparfait …Aha) . Nikos a su nous conseiller sur les restaurants, épicerie … tout ce dont nous avions besoin. Au niveau de la maison vraiment rien à dire, c’était tellement agréable et apaisant. Ah oui aussi ! Nikos nous a servi une huile d’olive incroyable qui vient de ses vergers ! Nous referons et conseillerons cet endroit à 1000%. Un grand MERCI Nikos

Das Haus ist völlig neu und die Einrichtung modern und hochwertig und entspricht den Fotos. Es liegt ruhig am Rande des Ortes oberhalb des Dorfes und hat eine sehr schöne Aussicht über die Ebene bis hin nach Sitia und zum Meer in der Ferne. Die Kommunikation mit Pantelis war sehr gut. Vor Ort war die Betreuung durch Thasos und seine Frau Maria (die Besitzer des Hauses) super. Wir wurden mit einer umfangreichen Lebensmittelausstattung versorgt und mit selbstgemachten Gebäck verwöhnt. Das Haus ließ sich gut heizen, da wir leider ein paar kühle und regnerische Tage erwischt hatten. Ein guter Standort, um den Osten Kretas zu erkunden.
