Arismari Villa in Crete - Private Heated Pool
In een woord geweldig!! Precies zoals omschreven. Het voldeed aan alles!! We hebben echt een geweldig verblijf gehad! Heel hartelijk ontvangst met lokale lekkernijen. Tussendoor nog verrast met vers fruit. Zwembad was verwarmd!! En de douches waren ook heerlijk!! We hebben geen koude douche gehad, gewoon de instructies opvolgen!! Als je van rust houdt met een klein dorpje met restaurant en kleine ander tentjes, dan is dit echt een aanbeveling!!

Villa Chara 3 bedroom unique design Villa
Antonis war immer erreichbar und sehr freundlich. Die Villa ist genau wie auf den Bildern und das Highlight war definitiv der Pool. Vielen Dank für diesen schönen Aufenthalt!

Nagia Family villas - Villa Penny - Heated Pool
One of the best stays in airbnb over the years. Perfect place for staying with kids, lots of toys and everything. Our 3 year old son was really enjoyed. Giannis and Mara were really helpful about everything. They booked us transfer from airport for late night arrival and booked us a rental car for the next morning which we picked up at the door of the villa! This was one of the easiest and convenient option. I left my sunglasses at the rental car, they found it and will send me by shipping. Best hosts and best place to stay! Hope to meet you again.

Sea view villa w/ private pool close to the beach
tout simplement parfait... je recommande fortement tant la résidence etait belle, que l hôte Alexandros etait au top. à notre arrivée il y avait des petites choses locales à grignoter et des boissons... piscine superbe et maison très propre et fonctionnelle. plages, petits restos et de quoi faire toutes les courses nécessaires à 2 pas... vue sur mer et aéroport... sympa pour les enfants de voir tout ces avions decoller et atterrir. merci pour tout

Luxury Villa Verde
Wir waren als Gruppe mit 8 Personen (4 Paare) unterwegs und waren durchweg begeistert von der Unterkunft. Die Villa entsprach genau unseren Vorstellungen und ist ideal zum Entspannen, Spaß haben und um Zeit mit Freunden zu verbringen. Die Villa liegt sehr ruhig inmitten der Hügel mit einzigartigem Blick auf das offene Meer. Von der Straße hört man, auch wenn man am Pool liegt, wenig bis gar nichts. Nach einer kleinen Herausforderungen zum Start, da die Vormieter den Schlüssel nicht wie vereinbart in der Schlüsselbox hinterlegt hatten, konnten wir die Zeit sehr genießen. Hier hat die Kommunikation mit Stelios und seinem Team super funktioniert und es konnte alles schnell gelöst werden. Alles in allem war es ein super Aufenthalt und wir haben die Zeit sehr genossen. Highlight ist natürlich auch der Holzkohlegrill, der eigentlich täglich zum Einsatz gekommen ist. Fazit: Absolute Empfehlung!

Gaea Loft Villa (2nd floor)
Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt im Gaea Loft! Der Check-in ist völlig problemlos verlaufen. Titos hat uns bei unserer Ankunft gleich mit frisch gepresstem Orangensaft, Gebäck und frischen Eiern von seinen Hühnern begrüßt. Er ist ein ausgesprochen liebenswürdiger und sympathischer Mann, dem der gelungene Aufenthalt seiner Gäste sehr am Herzen liegt. Die Unterkunft entspricht genau den Bildern. Sie ist sauber, geräumig und und extrem gut ausgestattet (Gewürze, Öl, Kofferwaage, Kühlpacks, usw). Jeder Raum Wohnraum ist mit einer Klimaanlage versehen, die blitzschnell den Raum auf gewünschte Temperatur herunterkühlt. Der Ausblick ist wunderschön, man kann den Sonnenaufgang und Sonnenuntergang auf dem Balkon genießen. Das Loft ist über eine separate Haustür erreichbar. Man hat stets vollste Privatsphäre. Wir können das Gaea Loft jedem weiterempfehlen!!

Villa Õtium
We had a great time in Otium villa with Manos as our host. The best host we met so far by booking via AirBnb. Thanks again Manos for your warm welcome, and delicious homemade sweets, Raki and a bottle of your favorite wine! About the apartment; everything is so clean and the view is beautifull. The best adress to have a relaxed holiday. The only sound you will hear are some dogs and goats from the little farm on the other side of the valley. It was a bit more windy then directly at the coast, which was nice because of the heat in the afternoon. We enjoyed every minute of being here, and our 1.5 year old son did too! Thanks again, and if we ever go back to Crete, we know where to go!

Casa Luna Heraklion Crete with private pool
I had an amazing stay at this beautiful house! From the moment I arrived, everything was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The highlight was definitely the pool – crystal clear, well-maintained, and perfect for relaxing mornings or fun afternoons in the sun. The outdoor area was private and peaceful, with plenty of space to lounge and enjoy the surroundings. Inside, the house was just as impressive: cozy, fully equipped, and thoughtfully decorated. The kitchen had everything I needed, the beds were super comfortable, and the overall vibe made me feel right at home. Communication with the host was smooth and friendly, and they were quick to respond to any questions. I truly didn’t want to leave and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing, enjoyable getaway!

Villa Rodea
Wir waren acht Frauen, die eine Woche in der Villa Rodea verbracht haben. Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit, der Ausblick ist wundervoll und wir hatten eine unkomplizierte Betreuung durch das Komos-Team. Wir kommen wieder.

Endless View Villa Palaiokastro
Great place to stay! Gorgeous views, large home with plenty of space.

BlueKeyVilla- Remastered wellness retreat
We had an amazing stay here. The hosts were very friendly and responsive to any questions we had and able to provide recommendations for restaurants and reliable taxi driver. The villa was spotless, well stocked and the aircon worked very well. We also appreciated the midweek cleaning service provided. Thank you so much for an incredible stay, we hope to come back again!

Wir hatten einen extrem schönen Aufenthalt in der Villa. Der Pool und die Aussicht sind einfach atemberaubend. Die Zimmer sind sehr geräumig und es gibt viel Platz zum entspannen. Alles war sehr sauber und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Vielen Dank für alles Stavros. Wir kommen wieder!

Villa Tyghi - 5 Bedroom with private pool
We had a wonderful holiday. The villa is lovely and was perfect for a big family. Audrey is a great host who was so helpful throughout but especially with the challenges of the late arrival and checkout. Location is great and facilities were also great and exceeded expectations. A special mention for Wayne (the handyman), he took care of the garden, pool etc and is a bit of a legend👏. We would definitely look to book here again.

Villa Sunrise Majestic Seaview with Private Pool
Met een groep van 9 vrienden een fantastisch verblijf gehad. Het huis was prachtig en de tuin met zwembad ook ook. Ook erg aardig dat we bij het uitchecken nog konden verblijven in een ander resort van manolis voordat we naar het vliegveld moesten. Dankjewel namens alle boys!

Marinas Villas Complex
We had a great holiday at Marina Villas. Our stay at Marina Villas was wonderful. we were 14 adults and children who shared the three villas. All villas are well maintained and equipped. The pools also look great although during our stay the weather was too cool to enjoy them. The villas are located a short drive from the sea and the cities of Gazi and Heraklion. and most importantly - The owners of the villas and their manager were extremely kind and available for any question. I highly recommend staying at Marina Villas.

Nami Villa | PrivatePool & Breathtaking SeaViews
Just wow! This place was breathtaking and even better than the pictures. Very large and clean space. Just make sure you have a rental car as it is more secluded. Which was just what we were looking for in this part of our trip :) would definitely go back!

Sardines Luxury Villa 2-Private Pool-Garden
Wir hatten schöne Tage in den Sardines Luxury Villas. Ein Auto ist zu empfehlen. Der Pool ist schön und das Meer ist auch nicht weit. Man kann sich gut ausruhen aber auch etwas Aktivität haben. Vielen Dank auch für das Willkommenspaket!

Samiro Villa: Hilltop Retreat / Pool & Views
We spent 14 nights at Samiro Home Villa. Evi was the perfect host, thoughtful, considerate and responded very quickly to all queries. Everything about the villa was clean and excellent. The grounds offered plenty of opportunities for both sun and shade and the gas barbecue made meals at home easy. Perched high up in the hills, the villa is peaceful and commands marvellous views over the mountains and countryside. It is located an easy 30 minute drive from the centre of Heraklion (recommend parking in the port area €3 all day) and around 45 minutes from the major archaeological sites at Gortys, Phaistos and Agia Triada.

Sweet memories in amazing Villa Eualia w pool
Wir haben uns vom ersten Moment an sehr wohlgefühlt Das Dorf ist sehr ruhig und nahe zu größeren Städten gelegen, trotzdem ist ein Auto zu empfehlen. Das Haus ist ein Traum und wir genossen die Zeit am Pool und liebten es abends zu grillen. Wir trafen die Unterkunft makellos sauber an und es fehlte uns an nichts. Die erhaltenen Restauranttipps haben wir alle ausprobiert und sehr lecker gegessen Auf unsere Fragen wurde immer schnell geantwortet. Für uns eine klare Weiterempfehlung! Wir würden sofort wieder buchen.

Villa Aurora Sunset Pool Near Heraklion Seaside
We had a great stay at Aurora Villa. The house was very comfortable and the view was beautiful. The host was friendly, responsive, and helpful throughout our stay. We would definitely recommend it.

Cretan Vineyard Hill Villa
This was the most beautiful place our family has ever stayed and the best airbnb experience we've ever had! It was great for a family vacation and the villa was equipped with everything we needed. Kostas went above and beyond with everything - his mother came and cooked a Cretan meal for us on our first night, there was a homemade Greek cake, wine, and eggs. We recieved fresh eggs and more wine (made at the villa!) every few days, as well as more towels. We truly couldn't have asked for anything better - there was even a couple local cats who we managed to persuade to come say hi. This is THE place to stay!
