Avra Apartment, 100 meters from the beach
Katerina is a wonderful host. We had a great stay at her place which was homely. The host is very patient and helpful with all your queries and gives amazing local tips. The house is at a very peaceful location and just 100 mtrs from the beach. It's also about 10 min walk from the bus stop with bus service evry half an hour. It has all the amenities as listed. Certainly recommended if you are looking to relax and recoup.

Villa Alma in Crete, Sea View 2min from the beach!
nous avons passé une belle semaine dans le logement de Maria. La terrasse couverte est la plus belle pièce de la maison avec une vue magnifique sur la mer. La plage est à moins de 5 min à pied, par contre attention, pour les personnes qui ont des difficultés à marcher, la pente est plutôt raide à remonter. Maria est très réactive et répond très vite aux messages. agia pelagia reste une petite station balnéaire très bien situé pour visiter le Nord de l'île. Belle découverte

New Villa HALO just 100m from the beach
Jekaterina hat uns sehr herzlich und super flexibel empfangen. Unser Flug hatte abends Verspätung und dann waren unsere Koffer auch noch weg. Sie hat sofort ihre Hilfe angeboten und super schnell auf fragen reagiert. Sie macht das ganze Management rund ums Haus ganz, ganz toll! Das Haus ist genauso wie in der Beschreibung. Eine fantastische Außenanlagen und in 3 min ist man am Strand. Wir bedanken uns recht herzlich bei Jekaterina, dass sie unser Host war und schicken ganz liebe Grüße nach Kreta.

Seaview studio
Had a great time here! Vasilis was very accommodating and the place came as expected. Clean, great views of the water, and centrally located to the shops and restaurants in town. Highly recommend!

Stalis Lux Beach Apartment
The apartment was ideally located, very close to the beach and restaurants, but we were not disturbed by any noise whatsoever. Plenty of space for a couple and a small child. The outdoor terrace has a good view of the sea. Magdalena was the perfect host, arranging transport to and from the airport and quickly responded to any questions we had. We basically had a very good time and will hopefully return in the future.

Evangelia Casa, comfy stay, centrally, with views!
An oasis of calm close to the seafront, harbour and old town. The house is beautifully renovated and as all that you need for your stay. Communicating with the owners was excellent & we got an instant response. It would have been helpful to have a bit more information about services in the immediate area especially grocery shops. Overall we had a lovely stay and would recommend to others.

Cosy house next to the beach
Matthaios è stato veramente molto gentile ed attento. Sempre a disposizione e, se impossibilitato per qualsiasi evenienza, la madre o la moglie si sono mostrate sempre presenti. La casa è accogliente, tranquilla e vicinissima al mare (50 metri) e accessoriata con tutti i comfort. Facile da raggiungere dall'aereoporto di Heraklion e comoda per raggiungere le belle spiagge vicine. Consigliatissimo.

Steliana's House _Top Floor with Private Jacuzzi
abbiamo trascorso una stupenda settimana. l'appartamento ci è piaciuto molto. una posizione comoda per effettuare gite in auto su tutta l'isola.

Isla Villas & Suites(Mars Villa)
The villa is good, but not very clean and not maintained very well (door handle broke, the shower hole was clogged). The pool is great and shared with the other condo's and villa. There wasnt a problem with the host, but he doesnt go the further step to communicate with you. The communication is very basic. The location is ok, about 20 minutes walk from the main port, 3 minutes walk from the nearest beach, but the beach is not very nice. The only main problem is that the double beds are small, and not very comfortable for 2 adults. Over-all for the price, this place is good.

The White House of Bali, panoramic seaview villa
We really enjoyed our stay at this gorgeous villa! We went as a group of 9 friends / family and there was so much space for us all - the bedrooms were super comfortable and each had its own bathroom which were clean and spacious. Thank you so much for a beautiful stay and we can’t wait to come back!

Traditional Cretan Style Villa with Infinity Pool
Der Aufenthalt war großartig! Die Unterkunft war sehr sauber, gut ausgestattet und genauso wie auf den Fotos beschrieben. George war freundlich, hilfsbereit und gut erreichbar. Ich würde jederzeit wiederkommen absolut empfehlenswert! Es gab kleine Aufmerksamkeiten von George.

Private pool villa near a sandy beach
Wir werden es vermissen. Haus und Pool waren top. Wir haben eine wundervolle Zeit dort verbracht. Auch die Katzen haben wir gleich ins Herz geschlossen❤️ In 2 Jahren kommen wir wieder.

Fotini Anisaras Apartments "Α"
J’ai passé un excellent séjour ! Merci pour votre accueil chaleureux, ainsi que votre réactivité et flexibilité. Le airbnb est très bien placé : environ 20-25 min d’Heraklion en voiture et 10 min du centre d’Hersonissos, n’étant pas véhiculée je me suis déplacée en bus ou en taxi, il y arrêt juste en face du logement (au zorbas village hôtel) ou un autre arrêt à environ 15-20 minutes de marche. Il est mieux d’avoir une voiture pour se déplacer, aller faire les courses car le airbnb est un peu excentré, il n’y a pas d’hypermarché à proximité à pied, c’est une zone touristique avec beaucoup d’hôtels, le café molo en face propose des transats gratuits. L’emplacement est très agréable et safe, il y a par contre beaucoup de passage de bus, taxis, voitures mais qui n’est pas trop dérangeant. La mer est juste en face à même pas 2 minutes, la vue du jardin est super (sur la mer et les montagnes). Le logement est confortable et parfait pour une ou 2 personnes. Je reviendrai avec grand plaisir

* *AmmiraMare | Poolside Relaxation Near the Beach
We enjoyed the stay in Fanis's place and recommend it. We had plenty of room for 3 people, and we liked the the fact that is looks more modern then some of the other places. We enjoyed breakfast at balconies, soaking the sun in, everything you need for cooking etc. is there, even a sandwich grill. Fanis was always quick to respond and helped us with any questions. As for the surroundings, we really enjoyed walking to Agia Pelagia beach (a 15-minute walk) and spending our day there, there are some good cafes and restaurants.

Luxury Villa with Seaview and Private Pool
Die Hilltop-Villas entsprechen genau den Fotos. Moderne Anlage, tip-top gepflegt. Sehr aufmerkame Gastgeber. Giannis und seine Mutter Anna waren sehr zugewandt und extrem hilfsbereit. Der Aufenthalt bei ihnen hat uns sehr gut gefallen!

Beach front apartment with swimming pool
We had a wonderful stay at Dimitrios’ house in Lygaria! The home is spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and has everything you need for a comfortable and relaxing holiday. The view from the balcony is breathtaking, perfect for enjoying a morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. The location is ideal: peaceful and quiet, yet just a short walk to the beach and local tavernas. Dimitrios was an exceptional host, welcoming, responsive, and full of helpful tips to make our stay even better. One thing to note is that there are sound monitors inside the house. We’d highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing escape in Crete.

Dejablu (Heraklion)
Magnifique ! Foncez ! Le logement: Wahou ! Propre, cosy, confort. Une magnifique terrasse avec un jacuzzi privé dont nous avons beaucoup profité et une vue sur le petit port à couper le souffle. Une cuisine avec tout ce qu'il faut (frigidaire, vaisselle, couverts, etc ...). 2 belles salles de bains avec tout ce qu'il faut (serviettes, produits, etc ...). Chambres confortables. Un salon avec Netflix, pour ceux qui le soir ont envie de se poser un peu. L'accueil: Wahou ! Harry nous attendait avec le sourire, malgré notre retard (avion, location de voiture, les aléas des voyages🤣). Sur place un tas de choses pour bien commencer nos vacances : fruits, charcuterie, pain, eaux, coca et de quoi déjeuner (confitures, miel ,café ..) Le gros+: Merci à Harry pour ses bons conseils (lieux à visiter, restaurants, tavernes, plages ...) et sa constante disponibilité et rapidité à répondre pendant notre séjour. L'endroit: Très joli port, un peu bruyant et animé le soir. Bon départ pour sillonner.

Ascuri Studio
A truly fantastic place to stay. Exceptionally well stocked apartment with absolutely everything you would need for a long or short stay. Close to lots of restaurants, but well stocked kitchen if you prefer to cook. Beautiful terrace for dining, both undercover and outside. Host Viky is charming and friendly and could not be more helpful. We hope to return another time.

Beachfront Red suite-Ligaria beach
Logement très bien situé et très propre, à proximité d’excellents restaurants et services, avec une vue incroyable. L’hote est disponible et efficace. Arrivée facile. Merci Nikolaos!

Valentino Apartments (apartment 3)
Niki and Cristos were really lovely and friendly hosts. Fresh flowers, homemade biscuits and cake, wine etc were provided and left in the apartment. The apartment was bright and clean. They treated us as family and really made us feel at home. Surrounded by the most amazing mountains. Beautiful people on beautiful Bali. What more could you ask for? Eif charisto! (thank-you) Margerita and Yianni xxxx

Beach LOFT
I have nothing negative to say - wonderful beach loft and a very nice terrace. Very good host!

Maisonette in front of the sea in Analipsi
Kostas host impeccabile, ci ha donato il suo olio e vino , la casa é ampia, pulita, con una bella zona esterna, vicino una spiaggia di sabbia, negozi bar e ristoranti lasciatevi consigliare.

Sophisticated apartment with a stunning sea view
Die Wohnung ist traumhaft. Sie ist noch schöner als auf den Bildern und man fühlt sich sofort wohl wenn man sie betritt. Sie ist sehr stilvoll eingerichtet und die Terrasse ist wirklich ein Traum. Man muss sich allerdings bewusst sein dass sich die Anlage in einem der Touristen Hotspots auf Kreta befindet. Der Vorteil ist dass sie ganz am Anfang der Strasse liegt, so dass man selbst auf der Terrasse nicht viel vom ganzen Trubel mitbekommt. Gegenüber war ein kleiner Strandabschnitt ohne Liegen und Sonnenschirme den man glücklicherweise nutzen konnte um Zeit am Strand zu verbringen. Man bekommt auf der Terrasse nichts mit und hat absolut seine Ruhe zum entspannen. Die Terrasse ist so gebaut dass auch nicht von anderen darauf eingesehen werden kann. Wir haben 12 wunderbare Tage dort verbracht. Eva hat uns herzlichst empfangen und auch ein paar Köstlichkeiten zum empfang bereitgestellt. Obst, Brot, Käse und Wurst so dass man nach der Anreise erstmal entspannen konnte. Vielen lieben Dank.

Flokos. Lazy days, balmy nights on the seafront
Marlene was a very friendly and helpful host. In the flat you find everything you need (or not), from kitchen equipment to sewing sets. We enjoyed our stay there very much. Yes, as many rewiews mention the shower/bathroom is very small - but we were not there for a spa experience. And if you have average proportions and know some basic physics you can also easily shower without setting the whole thing unter water - which even isn't such a big problem as there is a drain. But I agree, it might be a plus for people who love to complain about everything ;-) Food in the taverna downstairs also very recommended. And don't miss to visit the whiskey bar right next to it at the seafront run by a very nice Scottish couple.
