Kores boutique houses - Aspasia
A great ,spacious, quirky botique 3 bedroom apartment in the heart of the old city of Chania. Very clean with all the amenities, large comfortable beds and modern bathrooms. The good wifi and a washing machine were crucial for us. Best of all is the location which is on a lovely, narrow pedestrian cobblestone street in the old town. Restaurants galore and a 5 minute walk to the gorgeous harbor area. Of the 3 Crete cities ,Chania Rithymno, and Herakliona, Chania was the most beautiful and well kept. The best of the 3 to use as a base(We did day trips to the other two towns.) Gannis was abroad, but his friend Christina was so nice, and helpful .She met us where we parked the car and led us through the old town to the apartment.

Apartment next to the beach
This is a lovely apartment in a peaceful and beautiful location. It is spacious and practical. Kostas is a generous host and was very helpful with local information. We had a great time and can recommend without hesitation😊

Chania Sea View Summer House
The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming. The place was super clean and everything well maintained. Just felt right at home with an amazing view, great beds and a beautiful atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Elpida Seafront Paradise
We loved this place. The balcony was very large with a direct view of the sea. There was a natural swimming area in front of the place that was perfect for a dip anytime. The sunsets were amazing. It is close enough to walk to the Chania city center, but a car is recommended to visit the many beaches on the island. Elpida was always available for any guidance that was needed. The place is a gem we hope to visit again!

Charming flatlet in the Old Town!
Le logement impeccable, la proximité avec les restaurants , café aux alentours. La mer a 2min de marche. La rue est juste magnifique. Parking a 5 min a pied , gratuit de 21h a 7h du matin. Merci a Dimitris et sa femme. The apartment is perfect , proximity with restaurants and coffee places. 2min walking to the sea. The street is amazing. Car park 5min walking to the place , the car park is free 9pm to 7am (not expensive for 2hours 1.80euro). Thanks a lot to Dimitris and his wife.

City Beach,Seafront Villa by CHANiA LiVING STORiES
The place was great! We loved it! Close to the beach, great restaurants, walking distance to the old port and supermarket, not too far from the highway. The lodging was enormous and had so much room, ac worked great, having a parking space was very practical. Go ahead and book you won’t regret it.

THE VIEW!
What a meeting! Jeronimo is so nice, he helped us whenever he could, and made sure our stay went smoothly: it was a very nice meeting 👍 His house on the heights has a bird's-eye view of Souda Beach: it's beautiful. Everything is said, finally the main thing is our favorite part of our vacation.

Luxury Studio El Arte on the beach
We're delighted with the stay c/o Eleni. She is attentive to the details that make you happy (little touches on arrival, enough to prepare breakfast). We loved the rooftop terrace area with views of the city and bay. We'll be back if the opportunity arises.
Beachfront home rentals with a pool

"Beachfront villa with pool by the sea " 5 pers.
I spent 5 nights here with my mother and 10 year old daughter, and I have not one negative comment…the house is better than pictures! The beautiful gardens give it a feel like being in a movie, and there is beautiful beach literally a few steps outside the house. There is lots of great restaurants and supermarkets within walking distance. We rented a car, but if you plan to just relax and stay close by, you don’t need one. There is also a bus that you jump on to take you to Old Chania. This place is perfect for families with young and older children. And it’s so comfortable you will not want to leave. Natalia, is so kind and sweet, and is near by should you need anything.

Luxury Villa Argi Infinity pool
Beautiful villa in a great location. If your are stunned by the pictures, you sure will be stunned by the villa itself - it is simply a gem. It lies at the top of a hill overlooking Kissamos. If you don’t mind a short, steep walk, you can even reach the town (and a supermarket) per foot. If there is anything to criticize then it is the kitchen equipment - a few more big bowls for salad etc would be great. Ioannis is a great host, super friendly and helpful. We are definitely coming back.

Sea View White Villa
This little villa was the perfect find for us! On a beautiful little cove with a beach across the street, private pool, very quiet and serene—a great hike up to a cave on the adjoining mountain, restaurants and groceries nearby, drivable to many of the islands locales—but even if you only get to nearby Chania, it’s such a charming town and well worth it. Stavros is the most gracious of hosts, very responsive and thoughtful, left us treats, kitchen was well stocked with basics, and he was full of helpful information to make our stay amazing. Wish we’d stayed here longer, honestly!!

Aega - Akra Grammeno Beachfront Villa with pool
This place is absolutely amazing. My wife and I spent our honeymoon at Aikaterinis apartment and we were completely satisfied. The inside provides everything what we needed. The description was absolutely accurate. The fridge is very spacious and there is a freezer as well. We cooked quite a lot therefore this was very helpful for us. The pool outside is very clean and also the temperature was perfect for the hot days in Greece. You can really relax at this place because there is not a lot of tourism at this area on Crete. Also the beach in front of the house is quite nice. We put our hammock under some trees and were watching the sunrise over Paleochora. I can totally recommend this apartment, especially for couples who want some relaxing time and together.

Beachfront villa w/private pool, ping pong and BBQ
We had a great time 3 generations of family together right on the beech although it was very stony , only 1 bar a short work from the villa buts thats all you need will go again

Odysseus beach apt3
A great stay in a well-located spot – close to everything, yet peaceful and not too central. Situated right on the waterfront with its own sun beds. Good facilities and an apartment with a good standard made for a very pleasant stay.

Vista Mare Villa Heated Pool
The villa is lovely and has everything you need for a holiday. Clean and well maintained. There was extra cleaning during the week. Great view of the sea and the mountains. The cars passing on the main road, which is 100m below the villa, create a slight noise, but it is not unbearable. Maria is a great host and despite the late evening time of arrival she was waiting for us with a smile. She took care of us all the time and gave us valuable advice. There was a problem with the dishwasher, which was fixed the next day as soon as I informed Maria. We had a great week and would come back again.

Seaview Villa Patroklos, pool-1 min walk to beach!
A lovely, luxury appartment near the beach and about 30 minutes' walk from the old town of Chania. A well-equipped, clean and beautiful appartment, but above all the warm and friendly hostess Anastasia. She guided us around the area, brought local delicacies, stocked the fridge with food and even drove us to the grocery store with her car. We really enjoyed our stay at the appartment and can wholeheartedly recommend it to others. You certainly wont't be disapointed!

House 8 - In the Heart of Venetian town w. Parking
Check in was flexible and communication was great. Happy to have free parking. Location was ideal. Beds were comfortable. Home was very modern and showers were spa like with robes and house shoes provided. We slept in back bedroom and closed window shutter to keep out the noise from the cafe below. We slept well.

Pasifai Residence | Chania old town
Pasifai Residence was better than one can expect! The decor has neutral tones, perfectly complimenting the stone accents & medieval architecture of Old Town. The living room is very comfortable & the dining table is ideal for breakfast overlooking the pristine blue water. The kitchen & bathrooms have all the amenities you need & there are even additional items (sugar, coffee, wine, water, fresh fruit, lotion, etc.) thoughtfully provided by the host. The bedrooms have ample space and soft bedding. Bedroom 1 has harbor/water views & although the 2nd does not have windows, surprisingly, that makes it feel like a private hideaway. It is tucked beyond the kitchen, up two short steps & through a whimsical arched wood door that is like entering a magical hobbit home. Konstantinos is a superb host! He was helpful even prior to our arrival, arranging transfers, private tours & help w/luggage. The apartment is in the heart of Old Town with shops and restaurants at your doorstep. 10 stars⭐️!

City Center Penthouse on the Beach
A great location right near the beach with clear views of an incredible sunset. The balcony was our favorite part but the location was great, with restaurants within seconds and the old port within a nice 15min walk along the water. Perfect. Katerina and George were amazing, easy communication and both went above and beyong welcoming us to Chania. Would highly recommend staying here if youre visiting Chania.

Casa Marathi Blue Sky
Absolutely beautiful stay. Enjoyed our time there and would definitely stay again.

The Complete Apartment - Dimitra Mare
It was the perfect place to spend a few days after a month of traveling. Extremely well stocked and gave us room to stretch out. 10 minute real time walk to center.

Villa Seashell★ Beach front Luxury villa in Chania
Karolina and Jadwiga are very pleasant hosts and communication between us was always very quick and helpful. Check-in works perfectly. However, Google Maps showed the neighboring building for us. However, the accommodation is advertised outside and that's how you find it. The accommodation itself is excellent: modern kitchen and bathrooms, beautiful rooms. And the outdoor area with sun loungers, parasols, tables, chairs, barbecue areas and beach is phenomenal! The only thing that is a bit disturbing: You are right on the main road and in the house itself you can still hear this noise well.

On the city edge, right by the sea KladissosRooms
Kladissos apartment is a great little retreat, perfect location away from the more crowded areas of Chania, it's only a short walk to the quiet beach and only a short stroll to the old town, lighthouse and bus station. The apartment was perfect, clean, secure and fitted out with everything you need for your stay in Chania, it also boasts a well maintained garden patio area full of colour. The family were very welcoming, kind and perfect hosts for our stay in Chania, our only issue was we only stayed for 1 week but if we ever return to Chania, Kladissos will be the first place we will look to book with again. Highly recommended. :) Thank you family P.

E1-Balcony on heart of old harbor-Erietta suites
Not only was Stelio so incredibly welcoming, but he made sure we had the best experience possible. Mission accomplished! The views were amazing and location was absolutely fabulous! The neighboring restaurants (below the complex) welcomed us with open arms, assuring that they always take care of their neighbors. We got welcomed with food and hugs each morning and night, and truly could not have asked for a better experience. Stelio gave great recommendations and his home was exactly as the photos showed! We will be back!
