Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Kalamaki Beach

Loved this place. Full of charm and character, had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. It’s in a quiet village, beautiful countryside and not far by car from interesting villages and beaches of southern Crete. We could easily live here. Big tick from us.

Staying in the beautiful cottage with stunning views of the sea and the caves of Matala was simply sensational! This view is absolutely worth the steep climb, be sure to bring good shoes. Sofia is a warm and very attentive host, responds quickly and had prepared small delicacies for the reception. The cottage simply has everything you need, very cozy with attention to detail. Now I understand why this house is almost always occupied.😉 In the evening it can get a little louder when the live music is loud, but you know that when you go to Matala.

A really lovely place for rest and relaxation. We had booked the lower house, much smaller than the main house but perfect for 2 people. Everything was super clean and we felt at home straight away. The view is fantastic and the houses -despite their modernity- fit perfectly into the classic landscape . We always had the shared pool to ourselves and as all three houses are built with so much privacy, you usually have the feeling of being the only guest on the property. It's the perfect place to soak up the south of Crete. And no matter whether we had minor or major problems, Antigone and Emmett were available for us and always immediately tried to find solutions or suggested alternatives for us. You can tell that they both care a lot about you having a good time in their house in Sivas.

Huge thanks to my hosts Nikoleta and Alexis! I loved staying at their gorgeous "landscape" apartment -- the photos don't do it justice! It's super peaceful and serene, with lovely views and landscaping and Alexis' art, plus some adorable visiting cats and a wonderful shady secluded area to sit outside. I arrived rather late (c 8 pm) but Nikoleta had been very proactively communicative and ensured I had perfect directions to the place. She was waiting there when I arrived and not only welcomed me warmly but also went far above and beyond, even offering me a bite to eat which Alexis kindly and deliciously prepared. They thought of everything and left so much food and so many supplies for me, even full breakfast supplies, very effective mosquito repellant and all toiletries/linens/etc. I fell in love with the place and the vibe, and especially appreciated being able to walk in less than five minutes down to the Knossos site when it opened at 8. Ten stars, I hope to stay again for longer!

We have just had a wonderful holiday in this amazing villa. A lovely location. Very peaceful and the villa has everything you could possibly need. Thank you!

This property is on the top of our list of all of the Super-host level properties we’ve been at whether Air B&B or any other platform. Premium quality and high marks for design aesthetics promoting maximum relaxation inside or in the yard with breathtaking views all day long and spectacular sunsets. All meals at the property must be had out doors! It was a perfect retreat after long days of sightseeing. We would rent it again in a heartbeat and will recommend it to family. John & Autumn

The apartment it's perfectly located above Lentas beach, few steps above the sea, perfect for a swim or relax on the terrace. Several walkable tavernas and bars are in the range of a short walk. Nikos was very helpful and welcoming, prepared several goods in the house once we arrived, lovely olive oil, fruits , bread, jam, snacks, butter, cold water, beers, wine and raki. We had an issue with water, but the host was on the task within minutes, we later discovered it was a village issue . In the house there are also lots of beach towles, umbrella and yoga mats, table games, tourist guides. Perhaps the only downside could be very near the proximity with the guests on the others apartments, you could be lucky( and fortunately we were) or you could have a loud, smoking neighbours....

Dear Cleopatra, we were allowed to be in Kerames for the third time and in your accommodation for the second time. We enjoyed it again! Kerames, the beaches of the area, Nikos Tavern, dog Roxy, the cats and your beautiful house are now like coming home for us! Thank you for the hospitality and your loving treatment of us and our son! We will be back ☀️ With love 🫶

Because of unforeseen circumstances, we only had one day in Crete. This was the perfect place to stay. It was centrally located. It was beautiful and comfortable.

Amazing accommodation w/ beautiful views of the beach, parking, a full kitchen, comfortable bed. My only wish would be to have had more time to spend at this apartment

Very nice, spacious, stylish and quiet apartment. The old town is only about 2 minutes away by foot. Easy and prompt communication. We immediately felt at home and would be very happy to come back.

From Sunrise to Sunset the North facing second floor apartment and balcony offered incredible panoramic views of the Mediterranean, Rethymnon Marina and Fortezza … absolutely no issues or problems with check in, in/out access with secure gated and covered garage parking … comfortable bed, quite building, hot water shower/sinks, flawless high speed internet, excellent cable TV, soft linens, sheets and pillows 5⭐️!

Lovely apartment villa, walking distance from the beach. Well furnished and very clean. The hosts where always really responsive and on hand. We where travelling with a baby and the place had a cot and high chair. The pool was lovely although due to the time of year we didn't use it that often. Lovely sundeck to sit on and look at the Seaview. Also equipped with beach umbrella and mats which is really useful! Close to the amenities that Kalamaki offers - supermarket, restaurants etc. but is a slightly quieter area, which was nice.

We had a great time, very nice apartment. Very nice host !

Great place. Great host.

Beautiful small apartment with everything you need. A breathtaking view from to both sunrise and sunset - absolutely stunning! Great terrace as well. The apartment was very clean, we would come back anytime and stay longer Easy to get to Port and airport as well as restaurants etc in the city 100% recommend !

Very central home but quiet at night . Very clean ,comfortable and in a safe neighbourhood Nothing was missing. Everything was perfect

We had an exceptional stay at Tasos's. The apartment is even more beautiful in real life than in the photos, with breathtaking sea views. The private jacuzzi is a real plus, offering incomparable moments of relaxation. The apartment is perfectly equipped, everything is thought of for your comfort. In addition, you are within 10 minutes' walk of Agia Beach and the best restaurants in the area, ideal for enjoying the area. Tasos is a very attentive and responsive host, who does everything to make your stay absolutely perfect. You can book without so much so so, you won't be disappointed. P.S. Don't forget to feed the little cat in the residence, it's absolutely adorable. 😉

The apartment is very pleasant : clean, modern, spacious and perfectly equipped. The small balcony and roof terrace are a real plus and add to the apartment's charm. Erietta and Manolis provide numerous recommendations for discovering Heraklion and its best addresses, which is particularly appreciated. Very responsive and attentive, they ensure that everything runs smoothly. An excellent experience, which I recommend without hesitation!

Christina’s studio is impeccable, walking distance from the city center. Plenty of good restaurants nearby. Highly recommended!

Great and very nice place with a lovely view. Close to the Lion square.

Alexis is a super host! He helped us a lot! 100% would come here again. Did I mention he helped us store our luggage too? 🤟

Close to the beach. Parking available. Apartment has everything you might need. Helpful host. Everything within walking distance, car is only needed for day trips. Nice toys for the kids. The only downside is that it is located next to a busy road with the necessary noise.

Kostis’ apartment is cozy, clean and extremely well located. The terrace is spectacular, offering great views of the ocean and an amazing sunset. We truly appreciated Kostis’ hospitality, always one step ahead of our needs with timely communication and great local recommendations.
