Holiday houses in Aktounta

Go there, go there, go there !!.

We had a truly wonderful stay at Vasilis’ stone house. Nestled in nature and surrounded by an olive grove, it’s the perfect place to disconnect and relax. Every morning we woke up to the sounds of cicadas, birds and a distant sheep herd, a magical experience. The terrace is sheltered from the wind and even when the weather gets a bit cooler, it’s still warm enough to spend plenty of time outside in the hammocks and deck chairs. The house is beautifully secluded in an area completely untouched by mass tourism, which we really appreciated. Wi-fi still works well if needed. Within a 15–20 minute drive, you’ll find lovely beaches with both sand and stones. The house itself is warm, not damp at all, and we slept comfortably, there were plenty of blankets and towels. When it is very windy outside, some earplugs might be useful, but most nights were very calm. Communication with Vasilis was excellent, he was very reliable, responded quickly, uncomplicated check in/out. Highly recommended!

This is a cool, stylish and comfortable apartment. The mattress is good and the shower is hot. It is a short stroll from the village centre which makes it a peaceful spot at night, but very convenient for the shops and restaurants. We were greeted so warmly by Eleni, who showed us where everything was and, as other guests have mentioned, brought us homemade treats during our stay. If returning to Spili we would certainly hope to stay here.

Very comfortable, clean and well appointed. We had a small issue with the washer and it was taken care of right away. Excellent service. Highly recommend! The property is located directly next to a quiet little cafe. We heard a little bit of chatter but it wasn’t an issue.

I highly recommend the apartment of Ginter and Anet to anyone who wants to live in a renovated old Cretan house. The apartment has all the necessary amenities (even more) and from the terrace there is a beautiful view of the beaches of Ligres and Triopetra. Also the village of Kerames where the apartment is located is a typical quiet peaceful and charming place. Local Kafeino is worth recommending where in addition to coffee you can eat typical homemade Cretan food. Once again we recommend the apartment with all our hearts. Best regards Aneta and Tomek 🌞

9 days vacation in a wonderful little apartment with a really great terrace. Everything is new and friendly and furnished with a lot of love. But we were even more impressed by Anna's cordiality and all her little (edible and drinkable) gifts, which were always at our door. Thank you so much again, dear Anna. The apartment is easily accessible, with its own parking space right in front of the door and within walking distance of the beach and town. On the beach, you can lie down on the available loungers in front of most taverns for free and enjoy the day. Of course, you should also eat something at the respective tavern. The way back from the beach and also from the port area in Agia Galini is safe for one or the other to describe as a bit more exhausting, just like the 3 floors up to Annas apartment. With heavy suitcases, a challenge :) But, with that you can then also go to one of the many taverns to eat comfortably with a clear conscience!!

Uniquely beautiful, charming tiny house, wonderfully located between carob and olive trees, beautiful terrace with plenty of shade and seating and lounging options (as described and shown in the photos). The very friendly landlords live in the immediate vicinity (see photo 3). Thanks also to the very nice service staff Vicky, who changed the laundry in between! The proximity to Loutraki Bay is fantastic, the water there is crystal clear and wonderful for swimming. Interesting for future guests: the tavern praised in other reviews is currently (June 2025) closed, very close to an air force base, so occasionally jet planes fly - even at night. Overall recommended!

One of the most beautiful places we have ever been. The apartment is lovely and comfortable, with a few of the hills, and Skinaria beach is a dream. Ana is a great host - I would recommend this place to anyone, as it will be one of the best experiences of your life.
