Beach house holiday rentals in Decentralized Administration of Crete

Everything described and shown of this property is undervaluing its delight. This is beautifully and perfectly placed in Chania. It has everything you need within the property, whether there's 1 or 5 staying. There's lots of do within easy walking distance, including the delicious Periplous restaurant down the road, the sea opposite, and that view!! --- blissfully divine perks of the location Antonis and Nikos are so helpful and considerate. From my welcoming arrival, it was a serene joy and so simply perfect I could live there. I highly recommend this place. Thank you for hosting. Είναι όμορφο

Die Wohnung ist ein kleines Häuschen, fast direkt am Strand. Der direkte Nachbar ist eine Taverne mit freundlichen und hilfsbereiten Mitarbeitern. Die Wohnung ist sehr stimmig und gemütlich eingerichtet. Nichts fehlt, alles blitzsauber - als Willkommensgruß gab es frisches Obst und Raki. Parkplatz war direkt vor der Tür. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Danke an die Gastgeberin.

Beautiful, clean, and very responsive. The stay was as advertised. This home is well maintained, comfortable , and close to everything.

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt in diesem Ferienhaus sehr genossen. Die Lage ist ruhig und bietet einen tollen Blick aufs Meer – perfekt, um die Seele baumeln zu lassen. Das Haus ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet und mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht. Die Vermieter waren freundlich und hilfsbereit und haben den Aufenthalt angenehm gestaltet. Alles in allem ein schönes Haus für einen entspannten Urlaub am Strand.

Superbe maison, très bien située , endroit très calme et reposant. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. La maman de Gregoris nous a très amicalement accueillis et nous a fourni d excellents conseils. Je recommande sans hésiter.

We felt right at home as soon as we arrived. We arrived quite late and were pleasantly surprised to find a cold bottle of wine waiting for us and all the amenities for us to have a late supper. The location was very charming close to the historic district of Chania and the story behind Hestia House added to our stay. Great location for walking and the nearby beaches were a stone throw away. The bedroom and bathroom were very bright and comfortable. If we return to Crete, Hestia House will certainly be our number one choice.

Incroyable pépite les pieds dans l’eau… le plus difficile est de quitter la maison de Manolis pour aller découvrir les autres merveilles des environs…! Un accueil très chaleureux, de nombreuses petites attentions qui rendent l’arrivée très agréable et un départ tout aussi touchant. Ce Airbnb est certainement celui qui a pris la première place dans mon cœur et le restera longtemps !!

Nous avons grandement apprécié notre logement pendant ces quelques jours ! Le logement est propre, fonctionnel, très bien équipé et l’hôte très réactif. Que dire des deux extérieurs magnifiques ! La grande terrasse sur le toit pour se reposer a l’ombre en toute intimité avec vue sur la mer. La petite terrasse devant la maison est elle incroyable, les pieds dans l’eau. La maison est très bien située, à quelques mètres du centre- ville et le bar à côté est un vrai atout pour prendre un verre ou un repas depuis notre propre terrasse. Une petite perle tout comme la ville de Mochlos.

What a wonderful place for a peaceful few days! The view is breathtaking and the area is just beautiful. The villa is extremely well appointed and has every amenity you could ask for, including a fantastic salt water pool. Hora Sfakion is a 5 minute drive or 20 minute walk away and has a choice of shops and tavernas all serving great food. My partner and I stayed with our young baby daughter and Alexandra and Lefteris couldn’t have been more helpful setting up a cot and high chair for our arrival.

Super maison avec très jolie piscine. Extrêmement propre et bien entretenu. Hôte à l’écoute, plusieurs provisions pour nous accueillir (fruits frais, eau, lait, café, pain, confitures, vin,…), très pratique pour une arrivée un dimanche. Environnement très calme. Juste à noter pour les familles avec un enfant en bas âge, l’escalier un peu raide dans la maison. Nous recommandons vraiment ce logement.

We had a wonderful two weeks at this rental. Sthatis and Alexandra were fantastic hosts, very responsive and accommodating. The house is exactly like the photos (minus the hanging chairs- but they were not missed). It is ade up of two separate apartments each with 2 bedrooms. It is well equipped and gets the most beautiful sunsets, perfect for an evening barbeque . If you wish to explore the island you will definitely need a car but it is wonderfully located between many of the islands attractions and accessible from both airports. The lovely maid (whose name I cannot remember- sorry!) attended twice. We had some unusual weather while we were there, including a sandstorm which coated the entire area in dust, but Stathis and Alexandra had organised the following day to have the outdoor areas cleaned and the pool water serviced so that we could use the facilities, which we were very impressed by. Overall it was a fantastic choice and we would recommend it to anybody considering staying

Snorkelling paradise! Nikos and the Stone House were both great. The house is small, but has everything you need, with the pool and BBQ area where we spent most of our time, and the steps down to the sea lead to a perfect spot for snorkelling, where we saw all sorts of types of sea life. Nikos was there with everything we needed, including recommendations of beaches / restaurants etc. Ierepetra is a much nicer town than people say and the Stone House is a 5 minute drive into town. You could walk, but we didn't. Would highly recommend!

Une magnifique escapade en Crête dans un super logement. Charikleia sera toujours là pour vous que ce soit pour répondre à vos questions, pour vous donner de bonnes recommandations et même passant apporter quelques douceurs traditionnelles. Le logement est très bien situé calme et reposant avec tout le matériel pour être à l'aise durant le séjour. Vous avez à proximité même pas 5 minutes à pied une petite supérette et à 10 minutes à pied la plage et de petits restaurants (attention début novembre seulement 4 restaurants ouverts). Pour vous rendre à Elafonisi ou Balos prévoyez 3h10 et 3h45 de route. Pour une famille de trois nous avons vraiment appréciés ce logement largement vivable en famille. La piscine est un réel plus. Ce fût de superbes vacances et je vous conseille vraiment ce logement. Encore merci pour votre amicalité et votre générosité. Merci de nous trois !

The villa is lovely and has everything you need for a holiday. Clean and well maintained. There was extra cleaning during the week. Great view of the sea and the mountains. The cars passing on the main road, which is 100m below the villa, create a slight noise, but it is not unbearable. Maria is a great host and despite the late evening time of arrival she was waiting for us with a smile. She took care of us all the time and gave us valuable advice. There was a problem with the dishwasher, which was fixed the next day as soon as I informed Maria. We had a great week and would come back again.

My stay was so beautiful! I was travelling alone but at no point felt uneasy or unsafe. I felt very much at home. The place is immaculate and exactly how it looks in the photos. The views are breathtaking and it is a complete peaceful haven! Giorgos also arranged car rental for me, he made it super easy and the company he booked through were great ! I could not recommend this place enough, from the property down to the communication with Giorgos, everything was perfect!

Casa Riza was a five star home away from home. The house itself is beautifully situated in the mountains, with the most glorious views through huge (clean) glass picture windows ensuring you make the most of the crystal blue seas and cloudless skies every day. We found it to be the most stylish home with immaculately maintained amenities, flowers on the coffee table (changed halfway through our stay!) - and it was all exceptionally clean and welcoming. Decoratively it was mix of old and new, making it homely and perfectly functional for a family of four. The pool was cold - but that didn’t stop the kids using it several times a day. Our hosts were amazing - we had tonnes of helpful, local recommendations and a food shop done for us with everything we needed, plus treats like Easter eggs for the kids and local jams and honeys - all laid out when we arrived. If you’re planning a trip to Crete I highly recommend staying here, a visit to Milonas gorge and Tersa beach also 5 star! ♥️

Der Check-In hat super geklappt, obwohl unser Flug Verspätung hatte und wir erst um 00:30 Uhr im Dorf ankamen. Maria hat auf uns gewartet und uns willkommen geheißen, vielen Dank! Der Ort selbst ist sehr ruhig. Es gibt einen Supermarkt, der aber wegen Saisonende leider schon dauerhaft geschlossen hatte. Die umliegenden Strände sind sehr idyllisch und teilweise waren wir sogar die einzigen dort. Zu den typischen Kreta-Sehenswürdigkeiten ist es sehr weit zu fahren, dafür hat man hier gute Entspannung ohne viel Trubel. Genauso, wie wir es wollten.

Wir haben uns in diesem Haus acht Tage lang sehr wohl gefühlt, auf der gut verschatteten Terrasse eine erholsame Zeit bis tief in die Nacht hinein verbracht. Ioanna hat uns mit verschiedenen Köstlichkeiten überrascht, liebevoll und immer erreichbar. Gerne kommen wir wieder, um diese schöne Aussicht zu genießen.

Super séjour à Marathi ! Logement très bien placé, bien équipé et propre. Literie de qualité. Des hôtes très prévenants et d’une gentillesse exceptionnelle. Je recommande +++

Elpida, ein Traumhaus, in jedem Fall empfehlenswert. Sensationell sind nicht nur die Lage und der Ausblick sondern auch das Haus selbst. Wir (Ehepaar 63/61) durften im Mai 2025 Angelikas unaufdringliche und herzliche Gastfreundschaft genießen und hatten eine erholsame Woche im bzw. oberhalb des schönen Örtchens Mochlos. Wir haben rein gar nichts zu beanstanden, im Gegenteil - wir haben selten eine so tolle Unterkunft gefunden. Perfekte Einrichtung und sehr gut ausgestattete Küche, immer ein schattiges Plätzchen und sehr angenehmer Insektenschutz. Die steile Auffahrt auf den Berg ist nach der ersten Übung auch kein Problem. Der Duft der Pflanzen ist einfach wunderbar. Liebe Angelika, danke dass du Elpida mit Fremden teilst, wir kommen sehr gerne wieder zu dir und Koko und freuen uns schon jetzt darauf, herzliche Grüße, Anne Dietz und Stefan Schmädeke aus Hannover

Michalis was incredibly kind and responsive, always available to answer our questions or offer recommendations! The place was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and thoughtfully decorated, with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable visit. The neighborhood was quiet and safe, with great local spots nearby, and it was easy to get around. We recommend!!

Magnifique maisons vénitienne dans une ruelle calme de la vieille ville. Très joliment rénovée et parfaitement équipée ! Excellent accueil sur place, plein de petites attentions et de bons conseils. Génial !

We loved our stay! The apartment is located just on top of the Taverna and about 15 meters from the beach. Within 5 minutes walk there is also a yoga location offering amazing drop in classes. From the moment we drove into the town we were warmly greeted by the lambros family. We spent the next 5 days at the beach and taverna relaxing. It was a great experience and we truly felt part of the local community for the short period we stayed. I highly recommend it if you want to relax and do less rather than more! The apartment is spacious and provides all you need for your stay, including a washing machine. The bed was very comfortable and there was plenty of space to chill.

We had an awesome time at Nikos’s place, he gave very useful tips and his apartment is at walking distance from everything in Matala(as the village is very small). As mentioned in other posts, there are quite a few steps to the place but you get used to it, and it’s a great workout after a big dinner in one of the restaurants below. One of the days it was too windy to be on the beach so we stayed on the terrace of the accommodation with a great view of the sea, the sound of the waves and privacy from others. Perfect for a romantic getaway. Thank you Nikos!
