Villa holiday rentals in Chania

A Slice of Paradise – Five Stars All Around! We had the most incredible time staying at this large and stunning villa in the Loutraki/Chania area. The property is nothing short of breathtaking, with lush, beautifully maintained gardens and crystal-clear water right at your doorstep. The direct beach access was a dream—so easy and convenient—and we spent countless hours floating in the calm sea and enjoying the serene, quiet atmosphere. The views from every direction were spectacular, making it hard to leave the villa! The villa itself is exquisite, with a spacious, well-designed area for cooking and relaxing. It’s the perfect blend of luxury and comfort. Demetrios, our host, went above and beyond, offering incredible hospitality and even surprising me with a birthday cake, which made our stay all the more special. If you’re looking for a tranquil, beautiful retreat this is the place!

Absolutely amazing place. The view is breathtaking, you can’t get enough of it and there are two large terraces to enjoy it from. The swimming pool is a nice touch too, small but the same time big enough to cool down and sunbathe next to it if you don’t feel like going to the beach. Super easy and friendly interactions with Manos and the rest of the team. Warm welcome and attention all the way through the stay. There were a lot of little, but important details that we really appreciated, such as: bottled water, some juices and fruits that were waiting for us in the fridge, as well as some local snacks and olive oil. On my birthday, a lovely greeting card and a bottle of Ouzo appeared in our villa which was also an unexpected but an excellent gesture. Everyone was really friendly and we felt truly welcomed. Many thanks to all! Although it’s only 3.5 km away from The center of Plakias, I’d definitely recommend hiring a car, as the villa is up on the hill, hence the stunning view.

Breathtaking view! The house is brand new, it corresponds exactly to the pictures shown. The pool is very large & during the day there is a perfect mix of sunny and shady spots. There are many small taverns nearby, you never had to drive far. Very clear recommendation for this villa, it is perfect & we would love to come back anytime!

Loved it! We'll definitely be back.

Wbu is a fantastic host and the villa is simply stunning. Wish we had more time there. Highly recommend!

We spent 10 nights at Joanna villa as a family of four, including two teenagers and had a great time. The villa was perfect for us, both indoors and out. We spent a lot of time around the pool and cooked on the bbq frequently which met all our needs. The hosts Alexandra and Leftaris are wonderful and it’s very apparent that they love what they do and are very good at it. They were readily available for anything we needed including local recommendations whilst being invisible, affording us privacy. They are generous, friendly and kind making us feel at home straight away. Leftaris is a skipper and provided us with lots of expert and local knowledge when we hired a boat for the afternoon. The nearest beach is within walking distance where we ate out on a couple of evenings with beautiful sunsets. We would highly recommend both the villa and the hosts.

Our stay at Nikos’s villa is one will never forget. What an amazing place. When we return to Crete we will be sure to stay here again. Both Nikos and Valia were great at communicating with us before, during and after our trip. Highly recommend staying here.

spacious, quiet and cool comfortable house to rest equipped with everything you need for a beach vacation. the area is not very touristy and equipped but for us it was a value close by car to some of the most beautiful beaches of all clay i recommend it to those who want to get around to see more things during the vacation

Villa Penelope is a beautiful place where you can spend a great time in a large group. Especially the outdoor area with a large pool is outstanding, the view over the sea is unique. Giorgos was always available within a very short time. We were even able to get to the villa earlier upon request. You need a car for activities or grocery-shopping. Thanks for everything, we would definitely come back!

I can’t say enough about how wonderful this villa truly is. We were a family of 10 people and the place was perfect to accommodate us. The place is super clean, has all amenities you could possibly need, and has a fantastic view . The location was ideal, it is a 5 mins drive to a few different beaches, there are fantastic restaurants close by and a 15 min drive to get into Chania. What makes this place even better however are the wonderful hosts. They are always responsive with any needs, questions or requests you may have. They are also knowledgeable of the surroundings which is extremely helpful. I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this place, I would recommend to family and friends. Thank you

This was our second visit to Daphnis Villas as we enjoyed 2 years ago. Maria is an extra sweet and very accommodating host. She took care of us anytime that we needed anything. She responded very quickly and made it feel like home to us. I would not recommend staying anywhere else.

Had a great time at Villa Faidra. As a group of 12, there was plenty of room for us all to sit/dine together and relax by the pool. Antonis and the team were polite, and happy to provide recommendations for nearby amenities and services. A great place to stay if you're looking to stay somewhere private with activities to do within a 30 minute drive.

Very friendly owners who warmly welcomed us and offered a bottle of a local alcohol. The son George is also very responsive. We happen to encounter an electrical issue, the father came in no time to fix it. The villa is wonderful (just as the pictures). Can only recommend.

We stayed at the villa with the whole family, 12 people including 3 kids and a newborn. The place is stunning and peaceful in the middle of olive trees and Mediterranean vegetation. The house was spacious and clean (George came twice in one week to clean the house and replace the sheets) and the garden and pool made it possible for us to enjoy the stay despite the very warm July. Awesome place!

We stayed as a family of four for a week. The villa consisted a main floor with a modern, clean and well equipped kitchen, a comfortable sitting/dining room with lovely views over souda bay and towards chania. A large jacuzzi bath was also off the sitting area. The rest of this floor was three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one with a shower/ tub combo and the other a wetroom style. A further bedroom/ shower room was on the floor below via an outside staircase as well as a well equiped gym. The outside area was expansive and enough for our boys to run around. The villa also had a number of indoor and outdoor games for the boys to enjoy. But a lot of our time was spent in the heated pool! Overall, we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The villa was very clean, comfortable with stunning hilltop views. The location was close to the airport, local resturants and shops and we had food delivered to us a number of times. A special point was the kindness and helpfulness of our hosts, thank you!

Great family villa. The villa was spacious and clean. The host was great in organising our car rental and also providing information about the area and suggestions on activities/dinners. The villa was located about a 10 min drive from the old town which was ideal. Would definitely recommend this villa and we will be looking to book again!

Wonderful villa in great location for family Holliday. Facilities were great and as described. The garden is beautiful and adds to the feeling of the outside space. Good shade and sun spots in the garden at all times of day. We had a lovely time exploring the local area as well as going further afield to explore Create to the full. Lots of lovely walks possible from the villa and the local beaches perfect for low key family beach safe for kids. The bedrooms were all lovely especially the master beadroom with beautiful balcony. Host was fantastic at communication and helped us with any questions we had responding promptly and efficiently to any difficulties. Would highly recommend.

The villa is a most beautiful place for a relaxed family vacation. Quiet, spacious and with all the amenities for a relaxed stay. The next town is nearby, only a few minutes away by car. The local support is excellent, very friendly, very responsive and alert. All in all, a very recommendable place.

Villa Arietta is a dream house. Located in the beautiful hills just outside Kissamos, 10 mins by car from the sea. The house is marvelous and has all the comforts you need to enjoy a perfect holiday. We were two couples with one toddler and a baby and both indoor and outdoor spaces were perfect for our needs. Also, thoughtful little touches like a welcome hamper with local products, and numerous amazing toys for the kids to use in the garden. Arietta and her husband have been extremely helpful and accommodating throughout, and communication has always been quick and proactive. We loved our stay and we really hope to come back again. Definitely recommended, one of the best places we’ve been to!

This house was unbelievable! The location was gorgeous and perfect. It felt private but also accessible and we LOVED the little town. The amenities and entire home were a dream and made our vacation perfect. The only thing better was STAVROS the host! He was AMAZING! Left us treats, helped us multiple times with recommendations, and even brought us freshly pressed oil! We definitely hope to be back!

Home fit us well. Had fun with the ping pong table!

Alex was an amazing host right from booking. He’s super friendly & reply’s quickly to any questions. We had the warmest welcome on check in & the property is beautiful, with gorgeous & peaceful surroundings. You have all the utensils & cutlery you need for cooking, Alex was always on hand if we needed any help with anything. I will 100% be going back & it’s not something I often do so that says a lot about Alex & his property. Highly highly recommend this place.

Great stay at quiet villa I a quiet village (just us, the goats, chickens and cockrels and occasional horse) with fantastic views of the mountains. Good supply of kitchen equipment. We were very grateful for the wine, cake, fruit water and cheese on arrival. Although we did not organise any extracurricular activities with them, the managing company was proactive and responsive, polite and helpful. A car is a must to get around the island easily at your own pace and timetable. We visited beaches, caves, monestries and botanical gardens and ate at lovely restaurants as well as cooking at the Villa. If you like outdoor cooking and are a larger group (we were just two) there is a spacious outdoor kitchen including grill, and pizza/bread oven and sink all under a shading Olive tree at the back if the vila. Fully recommend a stay at the Villa and in Crete

We had a great week at Maria’s villa - the house was spacious and well equipped, we loved the pool and views from the terrace. Great location with cafes, restaurants and Archeology museum within walking distance and bus to city centre right outside, but also only 15 mins drive to airport. Thank you!
