Cottage vacation rentals in Aegean Islands

Amazing terrace, felt private and had nice views on the sea and mountains. Great communication with the host.

Very prompt communication with our hosts who were extremely welcoming and considerate. The house was spotless and had everything we needed. It is in a very quiet area but only a short walk to the beach and restaurants.

Our stay at Evangelia’s place was easily one of the best experiences I’ve ever had—and I’ve traveled to multiple countries over the past 10+ years! Our host was simply the best I’ve ever encountered. She was kind, friendly, attentive, and always responsive, making sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. The place itself was immaculate. The interior was spotless, classic, and so well-maintained. Outside, the views were breathtaking. Each night, we were treated to the incredible sight of the Milky Way, and in the mornings, we had the ocean in clear view and goats greeting us as we enjoyed the delicious breakfast our host generously provided. It was so peaceful and quiet—pure tranquility. I’ve been recommending this place to everyone because it truly was the highlight of my trip. The location was also ideal—conveniently in the middle of the island, making it easy to drive to various spots, nothing too far! You’ll definitely need a rental car though! Book this place!!!!!!

This is a beautiful place to stay. It’s nestled in between peach orchards and walnut groves. From the balcony you have views of the castle and mountains in the distance. It’s incredibly private and cannot be seen from the road. The house was immaculately clean and everything was very well laid out. Kitchen had lots of equipment. The pool and jacuzzi were endlessly enjoyed and was definitely a happy place for all the family! You couldn’t want a better host in Hayrettin and Meral. They were so helpful and thoughtful! It was our daughters birthday when we were there and they came over with a cake!! They were responsive and sorted out any queries we had promptly. It was a delight to stay there and we’d love to come back soon.

We had a peaceful time in this wonderful house where we came for a honeymoon. We embraced it as our own home. Even though it was the end of October, we were still able to get into the pool. Thank you, we'd love to come back

Jimmy's is hands down the best airbnb we ever stayed. The surroundings felt like a natural haven and inside the house, exactly as described. We were particularly impressed by the sanitary products provided by the hosts... from toothbrushes to toothpaste to pads and liners to diapers, body wash, conditioner, shampoo. They raised the bar so high, we felt a bit let down with other hosts/hotels on our trip. Above all, we got the chance to meet them before we left and they are the warmest, kindest people. Thank you so much Jimmy and Christina. We will certain be back here if we find ourselves in the area and we will recommend to others too.

We had a wonderful time in the house and felt totally comfortable from the beginning. The surroundings and the views are simply fantastic. The pool is indescribable. It's really a great place to relax and unwind. At first, we only wanted to stay for a week, but then even extended the stay. Thanks to the great host, that wasn't an issue. Thank you for this wonderful holiday experience. I'm sure we'll be back ;-).

We had a wonderful stay! The view was absolutely breathtaking, especially from the pool area, which quickly became our favorite spot. The kitchen was fully equipped, which made cooking easy and enjoyable. It also catered perfectly to our baby’s needs. The host and their team were incredibly friendly and attentive, always going above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. In the evenings, stargazing from the terrace was magical, adding to the peaceful ambiance. A perfect getaway for families or anyone looking for relaxation in a stunning setting!

Stamatis is extremely kind and attentive and helped make our stay special. He’d warned us not many tavernas would be open in April so we were prepared for that. An added benefit of this time of year was the wildflowers on beautiful walks. We used the AllTrails app under a free trial!

We had a wonderful stay at "sunny&white" in Porto Cheli! The space is bright, beautifully decorated, and incredibly relaxing. Waking up to the stunning view of the bay of Porto Cheli from bed was a highlight of our trip. Nancy is a fantastic host—her warm hospitality made our stay even more special. She welcomed us with homemade treats and a thoughtful gift, which was such a lovely touch. The house is very well-equipped, with plenty of kitchen and bathroom essentials that had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The uphill road to the property is worth it for the breathtaking views and serene atmosphere. This is a perfect spot for a tranquil getaway, and we would love to return in the future. Highly recommend!

Words and photos cannot describe the beauty of this place. We had an absolutely magical visit. The home is comfortable and very clean and everything you need in the kitchen. Stella was the perfect host. She was so kind and thought of everything you might need. Make sure to follow her recommendations for restaurants as they were amazing. Thank you for the delicious homemade treats and a wonderful and relaxing vacation. We look forward to our return.

Beautiful place, stunning views, lovely host. Highly recommend if you just want to relax by the pool, enjoy the beautiful view and visit nearby Assos. The place is very well equipped and very tastefully decorated. Kids loved the little cats and pool. Only minor negative is the nearby mosque that goes off at 6am and some construction noise while we were there Sep 2024. Thanks so much for a lovely stay!

Absolutely beautiful! We had a wonderful time here, the private beach is outstanding, the accommodation is comfortable, the host is wonderful. Couldn't have been more pleased!

Irene takes great care of her guests. She welcomed us with gifts and bought some food for us to first time. Throughout our stay she made sure, that we were not missing anything. The house is very comfortable and well equippted. You could find everything there, dish soap, soap, sugar, coffee, tea, sugar, oil and even string;) The bedrooms are large and have comfortable beds with good quilts (we were there in winter). The terrace is huge and has a great view of the sea. The bathroom is quite small but there was never a problem of hot water. We even tried oranges from the tree in the garden. I sincerely recommend this house and the host. It's a fair offer. Very good value for money.

We decided to spend four nights at this beautiful property in a very rural part of Crete. We based ourselves here because of the location as it was close enough to Balos Lagoon, Elafonissi and Falasarna Beaches. The property is close to some very well regarded Cretan Tavernas so there is choice for food locally. Our hosts greeted us and provided us with some lovely pastries, fresh fruit, and items in the fridge which was much appreciated by us and our young family. The hosts were responsive and even gave us a parting gift which was unexpected but welcomed. We cannot recommend this Airbnb enough.

We were very pleased, we felt like we were at home

We loved our stay here. Anna was very friendly, stayed in touch and met us on arrival into Milos to guide us to the property. She gave fantastic local recommendations. The family who owns the farmhouse take great care to ensure their guests have a comfortable stay and we felt very welcome. They went above and beyond with the cleaning service, fresh produce, baked goods and responsiveness. Do yourself a favour and book this property! It is even better than the pictures and so peaceful.

We were expecting a nice apartment for our trip to Skopelos- Reality is: Iskios Cottage IS A DREAM. It exceeded our expectations on so many levels. We felt at home right from the start…we will spare you the details but seriously THE VIEW. Everything at Iskios cottage is in perfect shape, Gerasimos is the most welcoming host and has it all prepared for you. He even brought us extra towels for our beach days without us ask asking for it. So, If you are looking for an authentic and relaxed get away: choose this one!! 20/10 recommend. We will be back! :)

The three nights we spent at the Airbnb were great. The view was spectacular, it was peaceful to look at the islands. The front garden was very pleasant, and the location of the barbecue was quite useful. Everything was thought out, we felt at home. We would definitely like to come back!

We had a wonderful time at the house and will have many special memories. Stella is a gracious and generous host. We loved the home made cheese, wine and fresh herbs to cook with and made herbal tea every morning. House was perfect and we so enjoyed the outdoor space overlooking the sea. You and your husband have created a very warm and welcoming home. Many thanks for the restaurant recommendations and other towns to visit and your warm hospitality. Ann, family and friends.

I hardly ever write reviews, but staying in Flora’s home at Vroulidia truly made our Greece vacation complete. She and her husband Nico kindly picked up from the port and drove us and our luggage down to the house because we didn’t have a car. Hands down the kindest hosts we have ever met on this app. Between the homemade desserts and sandwiches left for us in the fridge, and the thoughtfully decorated house with games and beach supplies, we felt right at home. In front of the house is Nico’s uncle’s restaurant, where we were taken care of and got to enjoy the traditional food of Sifnos. Couldn’t ask for anything better. Please, do yourself a favor and spend at least a couple days here while you’re in Sifnos. It was the perfect getaway/adventure and you are in the best hands!!

If you want to treat your body and soul to a soothing break, this is the place to be. Wonderful location, beautiful ambiance and likeable hosts. We will be happy to come back!

We spent our honeymoon here and like it away from mass tourism. Michael's accommodation with the many seating options, the beautifully landscaped greenery surrounded by nature and even with a view of the sea was like a perfect, quiet love nest with birdsong. Michael welcomed us perfectly, with sweets in the fridge (we even drove to the café because it tasted so delicious), recommendations for the area and a nice farewell gesture. I am particularly pleased with the coffee machine, for my obligatory latte macchiato. We particularly recommend the hiking tour directly from the cottage to Peters Rock and the restaurant on the east side directly by the sea as well as Paradies Kavourotripes Beach. Perfect for letting your mind wander. Thank you, Michaelis, you are a relaxed, warm host.

It had everything you need down to the last detail. It was a clean and comfortable stay. Although the place was far from the center, it was a pleasant house
