Beach Front Boho Penthouse Overlooking the Sea
Amazing accommodation w/ beautiful views of the beach, parking, a full kitchen, comfortable bed. My only wish would be to have had more time to spend at this apartment

Artemis Seafront Apartments - 6
Wow! Artemis is such a thoughtful host. The property is peaceful and beautiful. It’s a wonderful way to enjoy Crete and the Mediterranean. Our apartment was cleaned every weekday; that was a bonus!

7Olives suite no3. Arched balcony SEAview. Thyme
The apartment is compact but fine. It is slightly against the hill, which is good for walking (but rising). The view over the bay never gets boring, it's so beautiful! In the village, there are plenty of supermarkets and restaurants, plenty to choose from. A large part of the beach is a gently sloping sandy beach. Really nice! Also a great base to explore the area.

° Moonstone Seafront Suite
We had a great time, very nice apartment. Very nice host !

Beachfront Red suite-Ligaria beach
amazing stay and we enjoyed the welcome gifts. thank you again for a great stay!

New apartment, 1.4 km from the beach, private pool
We had a great time at the place with our kids. We loved the pool and the view and the hospitality and would definitely recommend to stay with Argiri. Thank you.

Lodge with 3 BR, 2-minute walk to the beach!
We had a an amazing time of a family of four. I would only suggest making a book for guest with instructions on the T.V., A/C, Hot Water, and WiFi password. It would make it much easier for the guest so they do not bother the Host. Also a book so guest can write how their stay was and where they are traveling from. Overall we loved how close we were to everything and the beach is stunning. Lena was a super host:)

Panorama at Casa Maistra beach apt.
This please was fantastic. Clean, warm and spacious! It definitely exceeded our expectations! The host was friendly and responsive.

Vista Mare Villa Heated Pool
The place is so beautiful and clean. The view from the outdoors is nice and peaceful. The scene of sheep eating grass multiple times a day in a small field under the pool is wonderful. (Photo first house) Maria, who showed us around, is so kind and nice.

Dejablu (Heraklion)
Great! Go for it! The accommodation: Wow! Clean, cozy, comfort. A magnificent terrace with a private jacuzzi that we enjoyed a lot and a breathtaking view of the small port. A kitchen with everything you need (fridge, dishes, cutlery, etc.). 2 beautiful bathrooms with everything you need (towels, products, etc.). Comfortable rooms. A living room with Netflix, for those who want to relax a little in the evening. The welcome: Wow! Harry was waiting for us with a smile, despite our delay (plane, car rental, the vagaries of travel🤣). On site a lot of things to start our holidays well: fruit, cold cuts, bread, water, coke and lunch (jams, honey, coffee...) The big plus: Thanks to Harry for his good advice (places to visit, restaurants, taverns, beaches, etc.) and their constant availability and speed in responding during our stay. The place: Very nice port, a little noisy and lively in the evening. A good start to travel.

Villa Olivelia with Pool - Afrathias Beach
Great holiday home in a quiet and secluded location. Excellent and flexible host and very friendly owners. The outdoor area and pool are even better than on the pictures! Welcoming dinner on our arrival :-)

Sea and Sun "Metaxy Mas", brand-new, beachfront!
Beautiful location and the hosts were so helpful throughout our stay

Casa Marathi Blue Sky
Absolutely beautiful stay. Enjoyed our time there and would definitely stay again.

Villa Mareli - Beachside Villa with Heated Pool
We had a great time in this beautiful house, everything was spotless, very clean, super equipped and very functional, the pool was usually welcome to cool off under the Cretan sun - In addition Karolina graciously offered us an adorable gift of different Cretan artisanal products a real treat thank you very much, Karolina is very responsive and very efficient Everything was perfect 10 out of 10 if we come back to Cretes, we are sure to come back to Karolina's place Zahra Emma and Jean-Pierre

Kalamaki-Sunset | Stunning SeaView & Modern Design
We spent 8 days in Fani's accommodation. The apartment is very modernly furnished and clean. It has everything a self-catering holiday needs. We were able to do laundry, had all sorts of kitchen utensils and a great terrace where you could enjoy the view of the sea. The place itself offers everything you need. There are many restaurants and bars, a small supermarket, an ATM and much more. The loungers + parasol on the beach cost a total of €10 per day, if someone comes to settle the bill. We had a rental car to explore the area. Crete is huge and it takes time to get to certain places. For the start, Fani left us water, fresh fruit and small snacks. It was a great stay. Thank you ☺️

MariMar
We had a great time staying at the place. The apartment was very well equipped, in the kitchen was everything you need for cooking, there were even children's toys and equipment for the beach. Everything was totally clean and the contact with Efi was very friendly. We were very happy to use the garden and also the barbecue there. Thank you for the wonderful time we were able to spend there.

Sunset panoramic Sea View Studio
We stayed at Nikos's place from 10/6-10/12. The sea view was great. In the evening we heard the sea rushing. 2 minutes to the beach. The water was clear and pleasant 25°. There were not many people on the beach, a pleasant atmosphere. The island offers many attractions, the old town of Rethymno is worth a trip alone. The prices are ok. The Greeks are nice and hospitable. Nikos was on hand when we had an issue. Very friendly and helpful. We recommend this place👍. Regine and Heike from Germany🙋🙋.

Beachside Apartment in Plakias centre!
We were a family with 2 small children for 1 week in the accommodation. We were able to have 2 cots and a high chair, which was a great relief. Everything was as described and very clean. Sea and beach and restaurants etc. are just around the corner. From the terrace, you have a beautiful view of the mountains behind which the sun sets and around the corner you can see the sea. Large parking lot in front of the door. After 3 days, the apartment was cleaned, waste disposed of, bed linen and towels changed, wonderful! There is a long staircase to get into the apartment, no elevator, but for us it was not a problem.

Kamelia-Apartment in front of the sea
Great place, we love Kalamaki! Beautiful view! Cosy, clean appartment! We hope to come back! Amazing beach, with a lot of restaurants near by! Highly recommended!

Seafront apartment, 40m from the beach!
Nice, modern flat at the beach. Is equipped with everything you may nee d. Very nice owner and the communication with Etouri was pleasant.

Seafront Luxury Suite
Loved the huge deck. Across street from beautiful beach where you could rent chairs and an umbrella and order food and drink. Walk to dozens of all kinds of different restaurants right on the “the strip” and in the old town.

Between 2 beaches + lonely coast ❤️island studio
I‘m more that happy that we decided to stay at Dimitri‘s place. He ish very kind and helped us right away, if we had any questions. The location is peaceful and has a great view. The beach is not far away and the size of the apartment is just perfekt for a single person or a couple. I will definitely visit again.

Zen Townhouse - Infinity Seaview
Marianna’s place was great - we had a very pleasant time there. The view over the Mediterranean Sea is stunning, and the location is easy to access. Her mum, Sonia, kindly made us a local pie upon arrival, and she was so friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. There are several excellent restaurants nearby, and it’s only about 20 minutes to the Heraklion city centre. Highly recommended!

Blue Horizon
Small but nice accommodation! Very clean, everything necessary available. Communication was quick, easy and very friendly. :) The beach is really right outside the door (max. 1 minute walk), the matching beach bar with free loungers is also on site. 🌊🍹🌞 The only suggestion for improvement would be a vacuum cleaner or broom. After 9 days, even with great caution, sand or dirt gets into the apartment. It would have been practical to be able to remove it. Happily again! 🫶🏻
