Holiday houses in Perivolakia

We had our check in around 2 a.m. but everything was so well organized! We felt as if we were at home. There was enough lights (not something special but just as much as we need it) in order to find private parking and the key from the key box in the middle of the night. The welcome was warm and generous with typical local and handmade products. The owners had informed us that some food would have been left in the fridge because it was nearly impossible to find something to eat around 2 a.m. After many stressful weeks in our hometown, we wanted to relax, and Casa di Olive was the right choice. Peacefull property, stunning view, privacy. We mostly enjoyed dinners to the private garden, but we also liked family run tavernas in front of the coast. In one-word, memorable holidays! We will definitely come back.

We felt very comfortable, the small village is very nice, the view from the terrace to the mountains is great! The small apartment is totally authentic and cozy. In 10 minutes you can reach a great beach.

The place is very comfortable and nice. Perfect for being in the area. Guests are many nice and hospitable and make you feel at home. We are thankful for their treatment and for having had a great few days with them!

We had a wonderful stay at the Seascape Villa! The views are truly stunning and the photos do not do them justice! Maria was an incredible and caring host/ point of contact and was so responsive, providing special tips and recommendations to make our visit enjoyable! She’s happy to help, and even called ahead to restaurants for vegan options for us - thanks! The separate and very private bedrooms with their own entrances are great for sharing the space. Lots of outdoor places to relax and enjoy the view. The secluded rocky beach is breathtaking and absolutely worth the hike down and up - more for the adventurous type but absolutely doable and worth it! So peaceful and gorgeous down at that beach. Sometimes there is some noise from the neighbors and their dogs, cats, and from the road behind the house which is normal/ typical if off a main road and with neighbors - just flagging that although it is private and somewhat secluded it can get noisy at times. 100 percent would return!!

The house stole our hearts. Very authentic and in a village in which you feel that you go back in the last century. Away from mass tourism and with fantastic hiking opportunities.

It was a great stay in Riana's apartment. We were there for 14 days and nothing was missing. The towels and bed linen have been changed regularly. You can sit outside on the beautiful terrace to have breakfast or eat in the evening. Riana's parents are such nice and accommodating people. Your mini market, which is located at the apartment, is super equipped. You will find everything you need :) The location of the apartment is great. You are directly on a great beach section, which is super convenient with a small child. The taverns are also very tasty and you can sit on the beach and take nice walks in the evening.

Armeni is a small village located in a Cretan mountains plateau. Stone Mansion, placed at the calm edge of the village, is a beautiful summer house, deserving its name. It hosts 3 apartments, with a large common yard/terrace. I was the only guest at the time, so I had all the luxury just for myself. The terrace itself and the surroundings offer majestic sky views with hypnotic sounds of pristine nature (frogs?) at night. In the morning, you are greeted with the calling of hysterical roosters. An authentic, rural, countryside at its best. The rooms are cosy, spacious and airy, modern, and fully equipped for a comfortable life. The nearest coast is located ~20 minutes by car, I loved a little bit more distant Xerokampos for its diverse beaches, dubbed "Greek Maldives". Eva and her mom were genuinely warm and forthcoming as hosts, even though we met just briefly. Greeted me with fruit and homemade cookies, communicated well on chat. This was despite my late notice and on Sunday. Thanks!<3

I have only good things to say about this home, I was extremely happy with my stay here. The space is clean, comfortable and thoughtfully created. The hosts are warm and provided incredible Cretan hospitality. I felt really relaxed and welcomed through the whole stay. The village is something special with a kind of character and old world charm that makes this island a treasure. The surrounding areas are breathtaking and I believe the beaches nearby might be some of the best on the island. Maria was so generous sharing her suggestions of places to visit, always responsive and kind. Anna greeted me personally on arrival, gifting me amazing baked goods and some of the smoothest raki I’ve ever tasted. If you have the opportunity to stay here you absolutely should, it is the kind of place that you will always remember fondly. Thank you Anna and Maria! I am so grateful for your grace and hospitality ♥️
