Villa holiday rentals in Litsarda

This place is a treasure. The views from the living room and kitchen are spectacular. The house has many clever features that are well designed. The area around Almyrida is fun to explore--go down to the beach or on a hike along the coast. Almyrida is a cute beach town, very welcoming. And we did several further from the town adventures. We had no idea that Crete has so much to offer--pottery in Margarites, beautiful beaches, intense hikes, exceptional museums, exploring Hania's historic streets. The property management team were wonderful to interact with. We felt so fortunate to find such a gem. Thank you!!! We sure hope we can return.

The place is gorgeous, well-maintained and in an excellent location. The house is nicely furnished and AC is available in all rooms (needed in summer because flat roof). The village of Vryses is perfect to go out for meals and to buy everything that‘s needed on a daily basis - grocery stores, a butcher shop, bakeries, smaller craft shops, pharmacies, a toy store and much more. Good speed wifi and a nice layout of the garden and pool area. The hosts are just perfect: they provided us with many tips for local food and sights, and very communicative yet conscious of one‘s privacy. Strong recommendation!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful villa! The house is truly luxurious, in perfect condition, and tastefully designed with great attention to detail. The layout of the rooms is simply brilliant — spacious, comfortable, and perfect for relaxing and spending quality time together. The heated pool was one of our favorite features — always at the perfect temperature to cool down and unwind at any time of the day. The location couldn’t be better: just a few minutes’ walk to the beach, where you’ll find plenty of great restaurants, cafes, and shops. A very special thank you to our amazing hosts! They were incredibly warm, welcoming, and always just a message away. Every little question or request was answered within minutes — we felt truly taken care of from the very first moment. We can highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a perfect holiday on Crete. We would love to come back anytime! Thank you so much, Eleni&Georgios!

Beautiful place and nice view. George is top host! Thank you

We had the perfect stay at Villa Avrilla and Dimitris is a friendly and responsive host who helpfully navigated our complicated check in and check out requests. The Villa is very well equipped and stylish just like the photos and with plenty of lovely outdoor spaces and a great pool. The beds and showers are of high quality. A lovely welcome hamper and a bottle of wine was really appreciated. The location is fantastic, feeling very private but with shops, tavernas and a great beach just a stroll away. We would definitely return and have no hesitation in recommending to other guests.

We had a great stay in a very nice well-appointed Villa, with a lot of taste, very well equipped and ideally located near Almyrida (very nice and family-friendly seaside resort). We were able to fully enjoy the large heated pool until the evening and the exceptional panoramic view of the bay of Souda and the mountain. It is a quiet environment, very appreciable for resting. Jeanette & Joha were very friendly hosts, very responsive and gave very good advice for tourist outings and restaurants. It is an ideally located location, close to the beach and restaurants of Almyrida and 45' from the center of Chania. We highly recommend this Villa and will return with great pleasure. Bridget & JP

What a wonderful villa in a beautiful and peaceful setting! Everything from making the initial booking to checking in and out was made extremely easy. Communication was brilliant from beginning to end. The hosts are so friendly and have thought about every little detail, providing useful links/recommendations and tips for your stay. Almyrida was our first family holiday in a long time and we couldn't fault our stay. We had our original accommodation cancel on us a week before we were due to arrive in Crete, and we are so thankful we found Villa Asteria, as it exceeded our expectations. We used the local taxi company regularly and they made travel super easy. Pool area is great and spacious, we even had inflatables left for us. Having a balcony/terrace off each room is fantastic. We loved the traditional feel of the villa. We were sad to leave and hope to return again in the future. Thank you so much, Sasha & Family

Beautiful villa and close to good restaurants and beach. Maria and Mr.Sifis where great hosts, easy to get in touch with and really welcoming. The only downside with our stay was the grass where the sun beds where at was really high and should have been taking care of and the beds were hard. Other than that an amazing villa I would recommend!

Wonderful Experience at the Villa Elias! Our stay at the villa was perfect. The sea view was breathtaking, especially during sunset – a true sense of calm, quiet, and complete privacy. Choosing this villa was an excellent decision, especially because of the heated pool, which the kids absolutely loved. They enjoyed both swimming and playing in the spacious garden. The villa is well-equipped, with many useful items that made our stay very comfortable, including an air pump for pool toys. The location is also great – close to shops, supermarkets, and pharmacies. Highly recommended for families looking for a peaceful and convenient holiday with children. Wissam,

Beatiful view and nice downstairs appartment with own pool and yard. Parking lot had always room for our car. From parking lot there are deep stairs down to the appartments yard. We came late in evening and it was little bit difficult to get in without light on the appartment door. Pool was great for swimming and view fo Chania and sea bay just amazing. If you have lot of electronic devices with you, take a power strip with you. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet during our stay in April. Really nice place to relax and enjoy life.

Book this Airbnb. Do not think twice. Nice to be greeted with wine and snacks after the flight over. 3 styles of coffee makers with coffee. Sugar, spices, olive oil and balsamic to get you started. 4 bedroom 3 full baths. Great living and cooking areas. Very spacious for our group of 7. Clean and comfortable. Equipped with everything you could ask for. We made a few terrific meals with the grill and kitchen equipment. Harilao has put a lot of thought and planning in to his home. Gorgeous outdoor space with heated pool. Indoors is clean and uncluttered. The views are lovely. 1 minute on walk up the street to fresh bread daily and cute market. 3 minute walk down the street is a bigger market. 4 minute walk to my favorite beach. 8 Euro for 2 chairs and an umbrella. Bar right there if you want a drink. Walk to coffee, pastries, restaurants and bars near by. We loved the home and beach so much that we slipped a few day trips. 5 stars. I hope to come back! Amazing home.

Excellent stay . Lovely family helped throughout. Home is beautiful

This is a 10/10 Villa. We have travelled a lot and this is by far the best Villa we have stayed in. We were a family of 9 (5 adults and 4 children aged 2, 4, 9 and 11). The views are stunning, the pool is big, all the rooms have private bathroom. Jacuzzi is also perfect for when the sun goes down! Theo was a wonderful host helping us, giving good recommendations and suprising as with some nice gestures. This Villa really is a Gem as the name suggests. As for the surroundings - it is 100% private! For me the best part was that there is a nice local village to walk to every night. There are some amazing Tavernas/Restaurants with delicious food and reasonable prices (also a mini-market). There is also a nice beach with a good restaurant and a nice cozy beach bar - it is only a 10 minute walk from the villa. And if you rent a car then it is a 10 minute ride to the Rethymnon old town, which is also a very nice place with lots of shops and restaurants. The Villa was worth every euro!

The house is simply gorgeous. Our family had a wonderful Christmas holiday here. The host was very generous with items in the refrigerator and a well stocked kitchen. Lots of recommendations of places to eat in the area. Michael met us in the driveway upon arrival and showed us everything in the house, that was very kind. Especially loved access to the washer and dryer because we were traveling with kids. It was too cold to use the pool, but if you are here when it is warm, it would be such delight.

A truly unique villa, the views are spectacular and the villa is absolutely stunning. The garden was full of butterfly’s and we picked our own figs, grapes, limes, peppers and tomatoes. The pool was a huge highlight, beautifully designed with both shade and sun. The location of the villa is perfect, both mountain and sea views, very peaceful and there were plenty of lovely places to eat within a 10/15 minute drive. Kostas and his family were really lovely and very helpful. This really is the perfect place to stay.

We had the most dreamy of times at the villa! Maria gave us a warm welcome and made us feel at home right away. We loved her hospitality and proactive hosting, giving us tips and recommendations of places to visit in the area. The place provided everything one could wish for, from pristine looking rooms to hammam showers, a fine gas bbq and shaded terrace, glorious swimming pool, comfy sofa and a kitchen chefs would enjoy. The surroundings are to die for. Sinuous roads and endless sea views, unique beaches, but also mountain hikes, gorges and wine tastings not far at all (car is a must). Closest taverna has delicious food. Agia Galini is a short drive away and offers all essentials should you need to shop, eat out, find an atm or go on a fishing boat trip. Thanks again for a fantastic stay! We will be back sooner than later!

We had an incredible week at Pavlos Persefoni &Christina- Maria’s villa. The location was so peaceful and beautiful, easy to find, but also only 10 mins drive near the village of Georgioupoli where there are plenty of restaurants and supermarkets. The villa itself was amazing. The pool was great and we used the BBQ a lot. The rooms were clean, the air conditioning worked really well and we had all the amenities we needed for our stay. Pavlos Persefoni &Christina- Maria were really responsive to us when we messaged and very helpful. The baked goods we had upon arrival and during our stay were such a nice touch and absolutely delicious! I highly recommend staying here. We had a very relaxing week and made many beautiful memories.

We had a lovely stay in Crete! Our villa was so peaceful. You hardly hear any outside life. You most certainly need a car especially if you plan on moving around to see different things. The water pressure in the bathroom was amazing! The house had amazing views. Some of the best sunsets we saw. The housekeeper was always on hand for whatever you needed and responded really quickly. Overall an amazing stay.

Absolute 5* property and host ! Cant recommend this property enough! Absolutely stunning upon arrival, the property exceeded our expectations even from the pictures ! Alexios is a fantastic host, made us feel welcome straight away and showed us all the details on the property, his local Taverna recommendations were great too ! Provided us with a lovely welcome basket with Local olive oil and wines etc. We couldn’t fault the property at all, stunning design and finishes, absolutely everything you would want for a stay in beautiful Crete. Wished we could have stayed longer in Alexios property, you cant get bored of sitting on the roof terrace or in the pool looking at that view! Some local Tavernas within walking distance that are very nice and worth a visit. Highly recommend this property and Alexios as a host ! We will be back to stay again for sure. 5*

My wife and I got married October last year in New Jersey, and couldn’t travel for our honeymoon at that time, so we decided to spend few days in Crete for a quiet and relaxing short vacation. We had a lovely stay in the Villa, the location was perfect for waking up to beautiful sunrises overlooking the Sea and the amazing backgrounds of snow capped mountains. The hosts were incredibly helpful and responded quickly when I had questions. They recommended to eat in the local taverns with authentic Greek cuisine, and it was so delicious, we were surprised to find them open during winter! The villa had everything we needed including Starlink! My wife was able to upload her videos to her social media page. We felt in love with the villa and are already planning to go back during summer to enjoy the beautiful beaches around the area. We highly recommend Villa Dragonfly in Kefalas.

We had an excellent stay at Villa Logari. Beautiful home that looked just like the photos. Host was extremely responsive and hospitality was top notch… the daily breakfast basket is an amazing touch. The villa is in Xirosterni which is a bit off the beaten path but is charming and we were able to explore the local area as well as travel to both Chania and Rethymno which are each around 45 minutes away. Would definitely return!

We had an awesome stay at Giorgos’s place. The property is stunning and clean. The views are amazing. Living areas both inside and outside are spacious. Perfect for large groups. Host is excellent and easily reachable. He brought over a ton of toys for my 4 year old daughter. We lost power at one point because of a storm and without skipping a beat, Giorgios came over with lights and candles. Location is perfect for all the day trips around the south side of the the island. 1 minor complaint is that the beds are not that comfortable—but that seems to Crete thing as any AirBnb we’ve stayed in in the last few years have been similar. The single beds are a little hard. The queen beds are comfortable but the bed frames are loud and creaky. Other than that it was a perfect stay and highly recommended.

We stayed for 4 nights in late April. A wonderful place in a fantastic location. Everything was as described. It was well appointed with lots of nice touches. They were very helpful with directions, local suggestions, etc. The outside area is large and beautiful. Only minor point to note is that all three bedrooms are on the ground level and there is only one bathroom on that level. The other is small and upstairs by the living room. We would definitely stay here again.

I cannot recommend this beautiful villa highly enough. We had a wonderful week long stay and it felt like home from home. The villa is very private, set back from the road and has the most stunning view and surroundings. It is very well equipped, and we had everything we needed. The pool is absolutely amazing - our children practically lived in it! There is also the dining area and sofa under the veranda, where you can relax in the afternoon heat and take in the amazing views. Mike was an exceptional host - he was very responsive and helpful and gave us lots of tips of places to visit and restaurant recommendations. Nothing was too much trouble. The villa is located a short drive from Almyrida, which has a beautiful beach and several fantastic restaurants that are right on the sea front - amazing views when enjoying your evening meal. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and we definitely hope to return one day!
