Villa holiday rentals in Pithari

We absolutely LOVED our stay here. It was located in a more local area about 30-40 minutes from downtown Chania. We were surrounded by stunning views in the mountains. It was quiet, peaceful, and private. Sofia greeted us with such a friendly welcome and a delicious home cooked meal. She was very responsive too. We also enjoyed her local restaurant recommendations. The home itself is beautiful, it was lovely learning about its history and how beautifully traditional the home was kept yet equipped with many updated amenities. Note that renting a car is a must! We would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone.

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 villa was truly as described. When we arrived we were greeted by the hosts, who were incredibly warm and welcoming. The kitchen was well appointed and the area is perfect for families or really anyone looking to walk everywhere, including to a great beach and countless restaurants. Thank you Andreas for a lovely time and a perfect vacation. Ευχαριστώ!

Best views we’ve ever seen - the sunset was special. Really attentive and helpful host.

Andreas and Anna’s place was in a perfect peaceful location with beautiful views. The apartment was very clean and had all necessary amenities. Andreas provided wonderful recommendations, and was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay.

Really lovely stay. The air BnB was very clean and pleasant and the hosts were friendly. They had also bought some spare pool toys for my son. They gave us great recantations of places to eat and visit. Villa is a little outside of chania but we managed without a car. Really lovely stay, thank you!

we stayed for one night in this beautiful villa and couldn’t have asked for better! It was private and peaceful, and check in was super easy! Our lovely hosts were so flexible with check-in and left us some treats for the stay, and then left us to be at home. It was so nice and clean and was so comfortable, we felt Right at home. Would absolutely come back. Thank you for having us!

An absolute superhost! The villa is beautiful. We enjoyed the time there very much and would choose the Canna Villa again at any time. Yannis is always available and a very friendly host.

We enjoyed our stay at Markos Villa; all was much more than expected The large, warmed swimming pool was lovely, For sure, it is a place to recommend

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.

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!

Breathtaking view! The house is brand new, it corresponds exactly to the pictures shown. The pool is very large & during the day there is a perfect mix of sunny and shady spots. There are many small taverns nearby, you never had to drive far. Very clear recommendation for this villa, it is perfect & we would love to come back anytime!

The villa exudes luxury throughout with thoughtful details that ensure a high level comfort during your stay. We couldn’t make full use of the pool (price to heat was a bit high) but our daughters were braver and took a few quick dips. We stayed over Easter and planned visits into the local town and surrounding area to immerse ourselves in the celebrations and communities which was so memorable. We’d definitely love to stay again- it was a wrench to leave!!

Loved it!

An unforgettable stay at Villa In Vivo! Our experience at the Villa was nothing short of exceptional. The villa itself is pure luxury - spotlessly clean, tastefully designed, and equipped with everything one could possibly need for a relaxing and carefree stay. What truly made our holiday special, however, was the incredible hospitality of our host, Panagoula. Even before our arrival, she was in touch with me, patiently answering all our questions and making us feel welcome from the start. We were greeted with such warmth at the airport, and upon arrival at the villa, we found delightful culinary surprises and a beautiful selection of fresh fruit waiting for us. The mid-stay cleaning service after four days was a lovely touch, and we are especially grateful for Panagoula’s tireless support after the stormy weather – and for the delicious, healthy meal she brought us during the week! You and your family are the best! Highly recommended – we’d return in a heartbeat. Thanks a lot!

A lovely, luxury appartment near the beach and about 30 minutes' walk from the old town of Chania. A well-equipped, clean and beautiful appartment, but above all the warm and friendly hostess Anastasia. She guided us around the area, brought local delicacies, stocked the fridge with food and even drove us to the grocery store with her car. We really enjoyed our stay at the appartment and can wholeheartedly recommend it to others. You certainly wont't be disapointed!

absolutely loved staying here. the views were gorgeous. had a small hiccup with the water when we checked in but as soon as I messaged the host the water was up and working within 15 minutes. very responsive and very helpful. definitely recommend!

We had an amazing stay for our honeymoon. It felt like being at a luxury resort! Christian even recommended in-home massages that we did on our first day after 20+ hours of travel and it was fantastic. The bed was super comfortable (I had back surgery so a good bed is important when picking a place) and with the total blackout curtains we got amazing sleep especially needing to adjust to the time change. We ate at Tersanas Tavern twice as it was an easy 15 minute walk away. You will need a car to get around staying here - and it’s more “off the beaten path” but we loved the privacy and space and wasn’t too far a drive to Chania. If you’re adventurous make sure to hike the Samariá Gorge - we organized it with a group (the drive is not for inexperienced driver!) it’s a 10 mile hike but so fun and beautiful! We cooked and stayed in a lot too I would highly recommend it to couples or families with children.

Our stay at Mikes place was amazing! He is the best host I have come across, he replies very quickly and is so helpful in my attempts to navigate Crete, supplying bus timetables, restaurant recommendations, etc. He met us at the airport which was sooo appreciated when traveling alone with two little boys, and it really helped us find our feet in our Cretan adventure. I could only book 5 days as the house is very popular and when I got there I could see why! It is spotless and has all the amenities you need, the layout and design of the house is fantastic, it is an open plan which is ideal for a family and you are surrounded by mountain goats, the therapeutic sound of crickets and a fantastic view of the bay. The pool is brilliant, it is spotless and private - with your own bar/ outside shower and shades/ sun loungers - we didn’t need to leave the house. I recommend driving but the shops/ restaurants are not far and the beach’s close by are outstanding (Murathi). ‘Elcharisto’ Mike!

We had such a fantastic time as a group of 8! Tony was very responsive and helpful throughout the whole stay, he made our vacation a breeze. There was plenty of space with the two villas and the views are incredible. The villas were well equipped to be able to cook in. Location is remote, very close to excellent nearby restaurants and easy drive over to Chania. Would highly recommend, thank you for the amazing hospitality!

The stay was amazing! Amazing host and AMAZING location!! They were so helpful with telling us where to go and what to do and even gave us fresh eggs from their chickens as a welcome gift!! The views are unmatched and the pool was the best lounge area. Will definitely be back and recommend to anyone going to Crete!!

Very nice place. It was exactly as presented on the pictures, and very well furnished with attention to detail. The location is about 20 mins from Chania old town and 6' from the airport. The host was very responsive and discreet. Highly recommended.

We had a lovely stay at Stelios Villa. Incredible beautiful surroundings, it’s a short walk into Kalyves, we didn’t realise until day 3 but there’s a small parade of beach bars and restaurants if you walk a bit further than we had been for first 2 days. The stay was lovely, the house was beautiful. We really enjoyed the village and it’s relatively slow pace. Stelios was very responsive to messages and very helpful too.

What a wonderful stay!! Barbara and her family were amazing hosts - they really make you feel at home. The property is a beautiful oasis close enough to Chania town while also being a private escape with an incomparable back yard pool area overlooking Suda Bay. We never wanted to leave the property in the evening. The large pool and seating area was a lovely gathering place for our large group
