Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Heraklion

nous avons passé une belle semaine dans le logement de Maria. La terrasse couverte est la plus belle pièce de la maison avec une vue magnifique sur la mer. La plage est à moins de 5 min à pied, par contre attention, pour les personnes qui ont des difficultés à marcher, la pente est plutôt raide à remonter. Maria est très réactive et répond très vite aux messages. agia pelagia reste une petite station balnéaire très bien situé pour visiter le Nord de l'île. Belle découverte

We had a great stay at this apartment near Heraklion. It was very clean, quiet, and perfectly located—just a short walk to the intercity bus station for day trips to places like Malia, Hersonissos, Agios Nikolaos, Rethymno, and Chania. The local bus station is also nearby, with easy access to beaches and Knossos Palace. The owner was very welcoming and left us local raki and fresh fruit on arrival. Highly recommended!

We can highly recommend this accommodation. It's tucked away in a very secluded spot, which makes it wonderfully peaceful. At the same time, you can reach restaurants and a mini market in just a few minutes. A car is essential! The garden is stunning. The biodiversity is incredible. There's always something new to discover. The house is quite small and simply furnished, but that was absolutely fine. Everything was clean, and that's what matters most. The long driveway leading to the house can be a bit intimidating—it just slopes down without any railing or guard. But that’s just part of the Cretan charm. Giannis was always very friendly and helpful—thank you for everything! We also got to know the neighboring family and even visited them. Such kind people. And the animals! Aphroditi the horse, a peacock, chickens, and turkeys—our daughter loved them. Overall a great experience. We were very happy and would definitely recommend it. Who knows—maybe we’ll be back in a few years!

She was the best host that anyone could ever ask for. She went out of her way to give us dinner when we had just arrived (at 11pm) cake and gelatin that she had made from scratch and even gave us amazing places to check out all over Crete. Bless your soul Mandy. I will ALWAYS come back should the opportunity arises. Upon arrival the place was clean and ready on arrival. It was supplied with trash bags, a TV, kitchen supplies, even with some food in the fridge (which we greatly appreciated) great WIFI, and even bathroom and shower toiletries.

Το σπίτι ήταν υπέροχο , νέα έπιπλα με ωραίο στυλ , ο οικοδεσπότης ήταν εκεί σε ότι χρειάστηκα !!!

We loved the location that included easy access, a wonderful kitchen, dining living room and a fantastic terrace/balcony that provided comfortable seating to enjoy the view and activities on the walking street below. Xanthi's place had great charm and we loved her grandmother's paintings which provided a special character to her place. We would definitely stay at Xanthi's when we return to a suprizingly walkable and comfortable Heraklion!!

Manos's place was located at a beautiful ans peaceful location, near the city centre but also at a good distance away from too much crowds. The apartment was as described, and is also clean and spacious. Manos even provided handmade cookies from his father and local Raki for us to try. He was also open to us leaving our luggages in the apartment while it was being cleaned due to our earlier arrival. Overall a very pleasant and lovely experience!

Dimitris's studio was very comfortable and clean when we arrived. The check in is very easy and Dimitris is a friendly and responsive host, checking to make sure we had everything we needed. The apartment is within walking distance to everything we wanted to see and close to the bus stop to go to Knossos Palace. A very nice stay in Heraklion!

logement pratique pour visiter la ville. Pratique aussi pour une arrivée tardive car tout près de l'aéroport.Environnement paisible et parking privé, ce qui est appréciable dans cette ville. L'hôtesse est très agréable et a répondu à nos attentes. Seul bémol, le bruit des avions assez présent... mais c'est le cas dans toute la ville d'Heraklio. Fenêtres fermées ça va.

One of the best Airbnbs I've ever stayed in. Perfect location, pristine clean, and very well furnished. Responsive and friendly host too. If I visit Crete again, I'm going to try and stay here.

een vriendelijk en persoonlijk ontvangst. geen kluisje met een nummer, maar gewoon een persoonlijke overhandiging van de sleutel en uitleg van apparatuur. kwamen laat aan, maar de host had al wat brood, beleg en een fles water geregeld. heerlijk aankomen dus. vaatwasser en wasmachine inbegrepen, dus kon lekker hardlopen en de vuile kleding hup de wasmachine in gooien. host vroeg halverwege de vakantie nog hoe het ging en of we nog iets nodig hadden. locatie is geweldig en snorkelen voor de deur in de zee. het ontbrak aan niets.

Great Airbnb in a super central location, well equipped with everything you need. Comfy bed and really clean space too. The only small downside was that it lacks a bit of natural light, but since we didn’t spend much time in the apartment, it wasn’t an issue for us. Definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a good stay in Heraklion!

Le logement était exactement comme les photos et très propre , l’appartement est idéalement placé pour visiter Héraklion à pied . Nombreux bon restaurants à proximité. Agelos a répondu rapidement à toutes nos questions et nous a donné de bon conseils .

Great place for a quick stay in Heraklion. Walkable to port to catch a ferry and see the main center and fortress. Very clear instructions, clean space and extremely responsive hosts.

We absolutely loved this place! Location was perfect! it has all the amenities/ extras you could ask for. Our hostess, Maria, was wonderful & very helpful!! I highly recommend this Airbnb!! Lisa

We loved starting at Stavrianna’s place! This apartment was so nice and felt luxurious as it was recently updated. It had everything we needed-kitchen, washing machine. Very walkable part of the city. It can be a little noisy on the weekends, but there were earplugs provided for light sleepers. It never kept me up, but my partner is a light sleeper and used the ear plugs. Stavrianna was also a super communicative and helpful host! She helped us extend our booking because we just weren’t ready to leave! Lots of museums, shopping and restaurants in the area! Would highly recommend this place and would stay here again!

Det beste med leiligheten var verandaen, som var stor og alltid med både skygge og sol etter behov. Var lite inne i leiligheten annet enn for å sove. Litt for hard seng for meg, men ellers bra. George var usedvanlig informativ og omsorgsfull, spesielt i etterkant av et kraftig jordskjelv under oppholdet (styrke 6,1).

Tasos est un hôte extrêmement accueillant. À notre arrivée tardive, nous avons trouvé un frigo et un congélateur généreusement garni. Des fruits, des confitures, des biscottes et des boissons fraîches et chaudes nous attendaient. Et Tasos a été absolument adorable pour nous faciliter le séjour. Nous lui en sommes très reconnaissants. Son appartement est très agréable , le jacuzzi et la vue magnifique en font une perle rare. Nous recommandons vivement cette location, encore plus appréciée grâce aux nombreux détails auxquels Tasos a pensé.

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.

Evin lokasyonu çok iyi, 3 dakikalık yürüme mesafesiyle en merkezi yerdesiniz. Evin balkonu müthiş denize karşı oturup kahvenizi içiyorsunuz. Ev çok temiz ve düzenliydi. Odalar ve salon büyük. Mutfak konforlu ve ihtiyaç duyacağınız herşey mutfakta fazlası ile bırakılmıştı. Giriş çıkış çok kolaydı. Ev sahibi her konuda çok hızlı cevap verdi ayrıca çıkış saati için esnek davrandı. Kesinlikle tavsiye ederim. Deniz manzaralı böyle ev bulmak zor.

Great location in the heart of town. We had an incredible night staying here and being able to explore the local neighbourhood. Lots to do around the unit. We found parking within a block that was free street parking and didn’t mind carrying luggage up the stairs to the unit. The balcony is surprisingly private even though there is a neighbour across the way. Thank you for hosting!! 🌟 🌟

Great and very nice place with a lovely view. Close to the Lion square.

Sofia and her dad Giorgos were great hosts, from meeting, explaining and taking the time to make great recommendations to checking in often, very much appreciated! We loved Iraklio (and Heraklion) and the flat had what the 4 of us needed to enjoy our stay. We spent our mornings and evenings on the decks and loved eating outside and drinking beverages. The recommendation for the Peskesi farm to table restaurant was spot on! The restaurant/cafes options in walking distance of the flat are plentiful and every place we tried was good. We walked everywhere, and took a city bus to the wonderful beach by the airport and the ferry excursion to Santorini one day. The archaeological museum is a stand out, and the history museum and Venetian Fortress were also great sites. Ended up skipping Knossos as the artifacts found were in the archaeological museum, so no opinion on that. We shall return to Crete some time and when staying in the area would gladly book with Sofia!

*Ein traumhafter Aufenthalt mit atemberaubendem Meerblick auf Kreta* Mein Aufenthalt in einem Airbnb auf Kreta war einfach fantastisch! Die Unterkunft bot einen spektakulären Meerblick, der jeden Morgen zu einem besonderen Erlebnis machte. Die Wohnung war modern und äußerst sauber, was sofort für Wohlbefinden sorgte. Besonders beeindruckt war ich von der Hilfsbereitschaft des Besitzers. Auf meine Anfrage hin wurden die Handtücher prompt erneuert, und als ein unerwarteter Sandsturm aufkam, kümmerte er sich sofort um die Reinigung der Unterkunft. Die Lage war ideal, mit vielen Restaurants und Geschäften in der Nähe. Die Strände waren atemberaubend, und ich genoss es, im kristallklaren Wasser zu schwimmen. Die Go-Anbieter vor Ort waren äußerst hilfreich und gaben mir wertvolle Tipps, die meinen Aufenthalt bereicherten. Die Kommunikation war unkompliziert, da sie fließend Englisch sprachen. Insgesamt war es ein unvergesslicher Urlaub, den ich jedem empfehlen kann.
