House holiday rentals in Chania

Wir waren in den Herbstferien dort und können das Haus wärmsten empfehlen. Da wir einen Mietwagen hatten, war die Unterkunft leicht zu erreichen. Man hat einen privaten Stellplatz und fühlten uns sehr wohl und sicher, da die Häuser zusätzlich durch ein Tor gesichert sind. Die Lage ist zwar etwas abgelegen, aber dafür sehr privat und ruhig. Die Aussicht aufs Meer ist atemberaubend und der private Pool war einfach top. Es war alles blitzeblank sauber, die Betten waren gemütlich und die Einrichtung im Haus vollkommen ausreichend und sehr modern. Ein Esstisch ist im Haus zwar nicht vorhanden aber das hat uns in keinster Weise gestört, da das Wetter im Oktober immer noch so gut war, dass wir immer draußen essen konnten. Maria hat uns beim einchecken geholfen und gab uns fast täglich gute Ausflugtipps und erkundigte sich, ob alles in Ordnung sei. Die Fotos der Beschreibung sind Originalgetreu und geben genau das wider, was man auch tatsächlich vorfindet. Wir waren super zufrieden

Wir waren für eine Woche mit 5 Personen in der Villa. Das Haus und der Garten sind sehr gepflegt und sehr schön eingerichtet. Die Badezimmer sind besonders schön. Leider war der Pool recht kalt, was aber unserer Reisezeit Mitte Oktober zu schulden ist. Ansonsten hätten wir ihn mehr genutzt. Netter Kontakt zum Eigentümer und ein gefüllter Kühlschrank fürs Frühstück. Darüber haben wir uns besonders gefreut. Wir würden die Unterkunft immer weiter empfehlen.

The villa is absolutely gorgeous. It is in a small town with no facilities (apart from a very informal cafe next door), but the quiet area was exactly what we were looking for. Yes there are some dogs etc, but not excessive, the noise is just local life in the town, which was actually really lovely. The hosts were extremely communicative, we had a few minor issues, but they were sorted in a matter of minutes! Loads of tavernas, beaches, supermarkets within a very short drive, spoilt for choice for loads of amazing food. Highly recommend a stay here, the villa, area, food and people were all fantastic.

Vor allem Ourania - Dafnis mutter und Malfada (Dafnis Hund unter der Obhut von Ourania) haben uns wirklich zu Hause fühlen lassen. Sie zeigte uns was kretische Gastfreundschaft ist inklusive lokalem Essen. Am Abend nach hause zu kommen und manchmal unter tags da zu bleiben war immer eine Freude - sowohl unter dem wunderbaren Maulberbaum im Innenhof als auch im schönen Haus. Ausflugsziele gab es genug - schöne Strände und gutes Essen auch. Danke für den schönen Aufenthalt!

Unser Urlaub mit unseren drei Kindern ( fünf Jahre und drei Jahre) war perfekt! Das Haus ist wunderschön der Außenbereich riesig der Pool einfach nur traumhaft und vor allem der Ausblick ist unbeschreiblich schön. Es gab jeden Tag etwas Neues zu entdecken, in der Umgebung, alles super mit dem Auto zu erreichen. Wir bekamen regelmäßig die Wäsche gewechselt und für die Kinder sogar kleine Geschenke gebracht. Es war ein wunderschöner Urlaub für uns Wir werden sicher wiederkommen. Vielen Dank für diese wunderschöne Zeit bei euch!!

We were a party of five, my wife and I and 3 30 year olds, our two twins and a son-in-law. We all couldn't say enough good things about this home: the view has to be one of the best on the whole island, relaxing, extremely private and immediately felt right at home. Starting and ending each day with that view, I didn't need anything else, but there is as much to do as you want. For example, just 6 minutes down the hill, you have the great little town of Platka with a few delicious local restaurants, market and a nice sports bar if you want a cocktail...like me. Another 10 minutes down the hill you come to Alymrida, the small coastal city that has nearly a dozen varied restaurants right on the water. 40 minutes away is the charming city of Chania, the jewel of Crete. This home is centrally located, 20+ minutes from the highway to go anywhere you wish to go...but keep in mind your leaving this view behind. I hope you enjoy it half as much as we did.

Andrea's villa and location was as wonderful as we'd hoped. We loved swimming in our private pool before breakfast and the view of the ocean from the terrace was outstanding, especially for sunsets, which were spectacular. The location was great, being situated away from crowds but with easy access to many beautiful beaches and tavernas. Andrea's handy hints were really useful, from where to refill water bottles from a spring, or which taverna on Sfinari beach to visit. He responded very quickly if we had any questions, so overall cannot recommend this villa highly enough. Thanks Andrea!

We stayed at the end of October and could not have been happier with this villa. it was spotless, spacious and comfortable for 4 adults and 4 children. The access to the water park for free was excellent for the kids and the last day of opening for the season was on the day we left. The facilities were excellent and the lovely pool and outdoor barbecue area were all great to use. Lots of local supermarkets and restaurants within a km and good access to the beach. It's a first floor property which might be an issue with the steps but we liked having views from every room to the sea and beach. We couldn't really ask for anything else in our stay and if we come back to Crete we would look to stay here again. It's a short drive from Chania. The hosts were really friendly and helpful, offering help with hire cars and local amenities, but they left us to it. We had a great holiday in Crete and a lot of this was down to this superb accommodation we were lucky to find available for our stay

Wir liebten jeden Tag hier! Sehr hochwertige Ausstattung, geschmackvolle und gemütliche Einrichtung, Küche ist bestens ausgestattet (alles was es zum Kochen braucht und ausreichend um eine Spülmaschiene zu füllen), sehr saubere und frische Handtücher und Bettwäsche, traumhafter Blick (ganze 5 Terrassen!) bei herrlicher Ruhe, und ein ausserordentlich herzliches Willkommenspaket (Wein, Milch, frisches Obst, Gemüse, Honig...). Sehr besonders!

Notre séjour en famille a été encore plus agréable qu'espéré. Nous nous sommes très vite sentis comme chez nous. La maison (Polymnia) est exactement comme décrite et illustrée par les photos. La vue et l'environnement sont incroyables, alors que la piscine a enchanté les enfants. La maison est parfaitement entretenue et propre. Les lits sont confortables et les climatisations dans les chambres sont très efficaces. L'équipement global est complet. La cuisine comporte tous le matériel nécessaire pour cuisiner, avec également les condiments de base. Chrysi est une hôte extrêmement disponible agréable dans le contact. Très réactive, elle a toujours répondu à nos demandes, aussi petites soient-elles. Elle aime sa région et n'hésite pas à partager sa connaissance par la biais de précieux conseils. Nous recommandons sans retenue cet endroit tout simplement magique.

Unser Aufenthalt in Nikos Haus war einfach großartig! Die Dachterrasse bietet einen atemberaubenden Blick, den man sogar aus dem Whirlpool genießen kann. Die Lage ist ruhig und entspannend, ohne dass man sich eingeschränkt fühlt. Das Haus ist geräumig und voller liebevoller Details, die für eine besondere Atmosphäre sorgen. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und können dieses Haus wärmstens weiterempfehlen!

This is a great place to stay in if you are looking for a lovely villa and pool in a very quiet and private location. The main sound is the goat bells ringing across the hills, yes really! Although it’s in the countryside there is easy access to the coast and the nearest village Vamos. Recommend trying the restaurants in Vamos. The hosts Judy and Mike are fantastic and are there to help if needed but otherwise give you space to enjoy this lovely place. Thanks very much Judy and Mike!!

Hôtes accueillants et réactifs. Logement confortable, agréable et fonctionnel. Situé au calme de la ville, tout en restant à moins de 10 min du centre ville. Je recommande vivement...

If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! This villa in the picturesque village of Koukounara is a dream come true. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted with stunning views of the mountains and sea that make you feel like you’ve stepped into paradise. The villa is even better and bigger than the photos—an architectural masterpiece blending luxury, comfort, and thoughtful design. Every detail is state-of-the-art, from modern appliances to plush furnishings. It’s spacious and perfect for unwinding, whether you’re inside or enjoying the beautiful outdoor areas. Every moment feels like pure luxury.Manolis was exceptional, providing amazing recommendations for local activities, restaurants, and hidden gems.His guidance helped us discover incredible places and experiences we’ll never forget.This villa is perfect for anyone seeking luxury, breathtaking views, and local culture. We’re already counting down the days until we return with our whole family next summer!

Alexandra’s place finished off our holiday perfectly. It was better than the photos, with everything you needed. Cristina was great, very friendly and helpful, happy to welcome her to Australia if she comes for a holiday. There are quite a few restaurants around and it is only a short drive into Chania Old town (depending on traffic). The location was great as you could book tours or hire a boat. From this location we went to Balos, winery, olive oil tour and got to know the area. Would definitely stay again or recommend friends to stay. Thanks for making Crete so memorable.

We had a fantastic time in Chania, the location is very convenient. During March we had the possibility to use the rooftop to enjoy the weather and the view. Everything we needed we had in the apartment. Nice restaurants were in walking distance. We also liked the conversation with the owner and his brother. Everything was easy and nice, we also used the street market every Saturday just 5 minutes away to buy fresh vegetables and fruits directly from the farmers. We already are making plans to come back and spend more time in Chania. Thank you Nektarios for your help and your kindness.

Wir haben uns in dem steinernen, kleinen Sommerhaus sehr wohl gefühlt. Der von einem alten Weinstock überdachte Innenhof hat uns begeistert. Abends konnte man ihn gemütlich und schön beleuchteten. Gefreut hat uns, dass in der Küche alle notwendigen Gewürze vorhanden waren und zur Begrüßung eine Flasche Rotwein auf dem Tisch stand. Die Lage in einer ruhigen Seitenstraße aber dennoch nur 2 Minuten zu Fuß vom Strand und vom alten Dorfkern Kolumbarys ist ideal. Die Übergabe und die Kommunikation mit Dimitrios war sehr nett und unkompliziert. Wir empfehlen die Unterkunft gerne weiter! We felt very comfortable in the small stone summer house. The courtyard covered by an old vine was very charming. In the evening, it was cozy and beautifully lit. We were pleased that all the necessary spices were available in the kitchen and a bottle of red wine was on the table to welcome us. The location in a quiet side street but still only a 2 minutes walk from the beach and the old village center of Kol

Krysanthi und ihre Tochter Melina waren unglaublich nette, hilfreiche und informative Gastgeber. Das Häuschen ist zwar klein, aber sehr liebevoll mit Bildern und Wandmalereien von Krysanthi geschmückt. Die Lage ist perfekt, um die Region zu erkunden! Absolute Empfehlung.

Stayed here for a week late Sept. Was fantastic. the best AB&A I think so far. Big place, very secure, easy walk to beach and to old town (once you get your bairings there are little short cuts-it just took us a while. Great bathroom- seperate loo downstairs too. big bed in main room . Fully equiped kitchen- although we mostly ate out- loads restaurants in beach area and town. We thought prices were good eating out. would defo come back again. location and actual place was great. We spent days on beach and nights in the old town. Apartment was lovely and quiet at night and very secure. Little outside space- great for cooling off. Little supermarket round corner- ok but would suggest going bigger super market (by Zara) to get supplies.about a 10 min walk once you get your bairings. Harbour a must in eve just to sit and have a drink- is beautiful- maybe eat in the little streets behind.

We had an amazing stay in this beautiful villa. No car needed as within walking distance of local tavernas, small shop and beach. Bus stop just a minutes walk away with regular service in Chania and buzzing village of Platanias. We didn't have children with us but villa was child friendly with option to gate off pool and stairgate. The villa itself was spotless. Pool was cleaned regularly and was spacious. Had several sitting areas in outside space. Although we didn't do any cooking the kitchen was well equipped with everything you could need. The bedrooms were clean and spacious. The shower was amazing, powerful with no issues with hot water. A lovely touch was having some supplies waiting for us on arrival such as juice, fruit, spread. Sophia was easy to contact and responsive. We would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone. Thank you so much Sophia!

Meine 4 besten Freundinnen und ich haben eine Woche in dem Häuschen von Tom verbracht und wir waren von vorne bis hinten begeistert! Die Aussicht von der wunderschönen Terrasse war traumhaft und wir haben es geliebt, hier zu frühstücken, Abend zu essen, an dem Grill zu grillen oder einfach nur zusammen zu sitzen und Spiele zu spielen. Das Haus selbst war ebenfalls richtig hübsch und sehr ordentlich. Alles, was wir brauchten, war vorhanden. Die Räume sind in wirklich viel geräumiger, als sie auf den Fotos scheinen, was uns sehr positiv überrascht hat. Die Küche war mit den wichtigsten Utensilien ausgestattet. Die Dusche hatte immer warmes Wasser und der Duschkopf einen guten Wasserdruck. Bettwäsche und Handtücher waren sauber. Jedes Zimmer ist meiner AC ausgestattet. Ab und zu wurden wir von einem zucker-süßen Dackel besucht. Tom ist sehr nett und offen für Empfehlungen! Wir können die Unterkunft von Tom mehr als empfehlen und würden uns freuen, irgendwann wiederzukommen. :)

We were very content with Mina’s House ! Everything matched the description & the hosts were friendly and available for us.

We had a fantastic stay at Seaside Villa Lavrys. The villa itself is spacious, well-maintained, and located in a peaceful area with a lovely view. It’s a perfect spot for a relaxing getaway, but do keep in mind that you’ll need a car to get around as the location is a bit remote. Taxi transportation from Chania costs around €30. What truly made our experience special was our host, Alex. From the moment we booked, Alex was incredibly responsive and attentive, always available to answer any questions we had. He went out of his way to ensure we were comfortable throughout our stay, offering great local tips and assistance whenever needed. His kindness and willingness to help made a huge difference in our trip. Alex’s family was also very warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. We would highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a peaceful, family-friendly stay in Crete, and Alex’s hospitality made it even better.

Eleni & Michalis’s apartment was perfect! Very roomy and modern! Crete is huge, so their apartment was centrally located and easy to drive to all the beautiful beaches and important points of interest that tourists would love to see! The apartment is near some beautiful beaches and great great affordable restaurants to dine at!! I found Crete absolutely beautiful with so many things to do with all types of activities!! (something for everyone) Crete is very family oriented so lots of choices for children as well! Michalis & Eleni are very helpful and really easy to help you when you need it! Thank you me and my family had a wonderful time!!!
