Villa Rodea
We were eight women who spent a week at Villa Rodea. Had an amazing time, the view is wonderful and we had an uncomplicated care by the Komos team. We'll be back.

Villa Stavelia with private pool
A fantastic villa with a wonderful host. Emmanouil was great from booking, with a few questions we had before we arrived, to check in, during our stay and also for checking out. So pleasant and helpful. The Villa was really clean and modern, well furnished and had everything we needed. We would definitely recommend this villa!

Villa Anna Maria - Private Pool - Sleeps 7
What wonderful hosts these people are their attention to detail on every aspect of their property is excellent. The place is spotless, everything you need in the villa is there. Manolis and his family are very kind and helpful, do t hesitate just stay here it’s ace!

★ INDER Sea view | 3BR Villa - private POOL
Great villa perched up on a hillside, with stunning sea view. You definitely need a hire car as nothing much within walking distance but this was clear when we booked. Three lovely bedrooms, 2 en-suite. The outdoor kitchen is a really good feature. Friendly host who was flexible with check in and out times. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Naturalia Orange Luxury Villa - Private Pool
We stayed in this villa for a week, the location was great with a lovely local town just a short walk away, The villa is in a very nice quiet location and only a short drive from the capital and other towns too, Dimitrios is a great host, offered us plenty of recommendations and checked in often to make sure everything was perfect with our stay, would definitely stay with him again.

Villa Melitta elegant villa with huge garden &pool
We had such an incredible stay here! The house was amazing and was perfect for us 8 adults and 2 children). The house and view were even more stunning in person than we had anticipated. Super fresh and wonderful, large pool. The garden is beautiful, and the view is, again, mesmerizing. The service was excellent. Very friendly host. Responded very quickly to messages or calls. One late evening we locked ourselves out, and we got help immediately! Melidoni is a cozy village with nice restaurants, just a 5-minute walk from the house. I would gladly come here again and highly recommend it!

Private Villa 300 m² Aris Palace
We had a wonderful stay at Thanos' villa. Thanos was so welcoming and helpful, he couldn't do enough for us. The villa was very well appointed, we had everything we needed, including two adorable stray cats.

Villa Silas
Great stay there with some friends, it's a nice place with a good outside area for quick access to the beach and some local restaurants.

Beachfront villa Phi, jacuzzi and amazing views
We were amazed by this property! Both the property itself and the amazing view were extraordinarily beautiful! It was like paradise! And Konstantinos was very responsive and helpful during our stay.

Little Eden Private Villa-6 homes/pool/party/event
We had the best time! Maria was so friendly and everything was perfect. We were even invited to eat dinner with them and had a blast. We were 14 people and we had plent of space for us all. It was clean and we even got new towels in the middle of the week which we did not expect. Would absolutely recommend staying there.

Etoile Villa Heated Pool
We had the most amazing stay at the villa- Manolis and Tenia are charming and gracious hosts. They helped us get settled, gave us a warm welcome, and assisted us with activities and restaurant recommendations. The villa is the perfect place to stay and explore the beaches, trails, sights and more-just minutes away from the port of Agios Nikolaos. The villa is spacious, immaculate and tastefully decorated. We wished we could stay longer! We really enjoyed looking over the garden and marveling over all they had growing right there-bananas, lemons, olives pomegranate. We felt like we got the gold-star treatment, and if this is what Crete hospitality and friendship is like we will come back again and again. We loved the peacefulness on the huge patios and by the poolside every day. It was just perfect!

Mama la Roosa Luxury Retreat
Our stay at Mama La Roosa Villa was a dream. Petros was an outstanding host who went above and beyond to ensure that we had a relaxing stay in Agia Pelagia. The villa was stunning - it had gorgeous ocean views from every angle, beautiful landscaping, and a modern design with every amenity needed for our trip. The villa felt quiet, private, and safe. We enjoyed watching the sunrise each morning. We enjoyed the pool and backyard dining area so much that we decided to skip the beach! The warm hospitality from Petros is what made the stay - he arranged reservations at the best local restaurants and wineries. We felt that we were able to truly experience Greece thanks to our stay with Petros at Mama La Roosa Villa. We wish we could stay longer and can’t wait to return. Thank you Petros for an unforgettable experience!

Notiko Villa II in Plaka Elounda
We had a wonderful week! The hosts, Mr. and Mrs. Vaggelis were adorable and full of thoughtful touches. They were responsive and always available and attentive, making sure we didn't miss anything. Tina, who welcomed us on the first day was also very attentive and very caring to us! As for the villa, it was perfect in every way! The listing photos match reality! I would even say it was beyond what was stated! The impeccable cleanliness, the services offered, the decoration and design of the house, not to mention this incredible view of the sea and the island of Spinalonga. I recommend these hosts and this villa! Go there without a second thought! you won't be disappointed! Thanks again 😊

A Tranquil Gem with Quick Access to Heraklion Town
The villa is a 10/10. There's nothing to add to that. Super nice hosts, a great villa, what more could you ask for? We'd love to come back!

Opsis Luxury villa with swimming pool
Fantastic villa, we couldnt have asked for more. The house is amazing and immaculate with everything you could need. Elina was the perfect host and went above and beyond and was proactive with extra information and tips. We couldnt have asked for a more welcoming and warm host. 5 star house with a 5 star host. we will be back.

Mare Beach Villa
We had an incredible stay at Antonios’s villa and can’t recommend it enough. The villa is even better than the pictures and with the beach across the road was the perfect location for all of us. Plenty of restaurants and things to do within walking distance. Antonios is one of the most welcoming host we’ve had on Airbnb and made us feel right at home on arrival. He couldn’t do enough for us during our stay and had some great recommendations. We will definitely be back!

Aroma Villas - Villa Lavender
This was an absolutely gorgeous property. It was spacious, well-maintained, and offered beautiful views of the Aegean Sea. The pool and garden are beautiful. This property also felt private while being a short drive to the downtown area with all the shops, restaurants, and the beach. Would 100% recommend this property!

Luxury Villa with Private pool next to sandy beach
The pictures don’t do this view justice. It’s breathtaking! The home is gorgeous and the outdoor space is wonderful. It was too cold for us to swim but we still enjoyed time at the beach. Most of the immediate area was already shut down for the season during our stay but there is a lovely area about a mile walk away. We spent a lot of time there enjoying the coffee shops and restaurants. The house and rooms were fantastic and there was more than enough space for everyone to relax. The host was amazing and went above and beyond to help us when we left some glasses at a restaurant. Thank you so much for a great stay!!

Villa Odyssia
The house was very comfortable for our family. We especially loved the pool and outdoor living area with the beautiful gardens surrounding it. Jenny is a wonderful host! The location was ideal for exploring the East end of Crete.

Villa Capri
We had an amazing time in Villa Capri. It was absolutely spotless and had everything we could possibly need. We stayed here with 3 of our children and the villa and pool was very well maintained and safe for them. The location was fantastic. You walk out of the villa and straight into the village square, which is beautiful with lovely restaurants, bars and bakeries. Really hope to return one day. Thanks again Jackie, Rae and Jason

Villa Verde with infinity pool!!
Check-in and check-out was super easy. Our host was very accommodating. There was a nice and delicious host gift to get in. When the vacuum cleaner was broken, he picked it up and brought it back a few days later. The villa is slightly elevated overlooking the infinity pool, associated olive grove and Malia. The view is gorgeous. You are lonely (except for the crickets), but still within 10 minutes walking in the city, where there are a bakery with delicious cakes and baguette / croissants in addition to several supermarkets, lots of restaurants, right by the church. The house is equipped with everything you could need. It is nicely decorated, with decoration, many pictures and books (also which in German). There is a foosball that we liked to use. The pool is gorgeous, about 1.40 m deep (our son is 1.44 m tall and was able to hold your head over water on your toes. The pool may be 6m x 3.50m. It's just appreciated. He was enough for us. It is nice that often despite the 30 - 32 degrees Celsius a light wind went, so it was a lot of fun to stay in and around the pool. We were able to park our rental car under a carob tree on the property, so that it was always in the shade. We highly recommend staying at Villa Verde.

Sea view villa w/ private pool close to the beach
Had a fantastic stay at the apartment, great host and very responsive. Apartment was as described and more, the pictures do not do it justice. Really lovely touches to make you feel at home straight away, including groceries and local produce waiting for us on arrival. Loved the stay and would come back!

Villa Zeus Crete
Great place and great living 💪😄

Villa Ligaria, Heated Infinity Pool, Free Cleaning
the view is absolutely amazing. we enjoyed the terrace and the BBQ with sea view. there is also a nice tiny path to go down to the beach within 3min by foot. (10min to go back up). our stay was outside the summer (last October week) so it was maybe not quite as warm but still very enjoyable. the pool was heated for us for a little extra, so we could use it despite the windy weather. the house was absolutely spot clean, and we had a cleaning service in the middle of the week which was very friendly and super efficient. note. the road that climbs the hill to the villa is very steep but very manageable. this seems to be same for pretty much every villa in the neighborhood. during our stay we were in regular contact with Angelika's brother Kostas via whats app. He answered all of our questions within minutes and gave useful tips, which made us feel very well taken care of. we warmly recommend that place!
