Villa The Calm Of The Sea

MarcusRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Very private, no noise from neighbors. We hardly heard any noise from the traffic as the apartment is not directly on the road. We stayed for a week and spent much time on the incredible balcony: you can always find a space in the shade there. We loved the Galini beach nearby. only downside is that you have to walk for 200 meters along the road, as there is no footpath. There is a private beach closer by, but not everyone will be willing to climb down. It's doable for most people, but it is no walk in the park. If you like solitude, or if the Galini beach is too crowded, then certainly try to go the private beach. The WiFi in the apartment and on the balcony is good enough to stream video to one laptop. We had a tremendous time and certainly will come back some time in the future

Punentes Family Beach House - "Anemos"

SarahRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Wir hatten einen traumhaften Aufenthalt in Lefteris Haus – eins der schönsten, in denen ich je Urlaub gemacht habe. Für zwei Personen ist das Haus und die Terrassen großzügig, das Haus ist sehr sehr gut ausgestattet, sehr schön, neu und gemütlich. Es gibt einen direkten Strandzugang und viele weitere, schöne Strände in der Nähe. Der Ort ist mega süß, einfach eine tolle Location für einen ruhigen Aufenthalt. Wir kommen gern wieder, es war ganz ganz toll :-)!

A Cretan house in a garden, overlooking the sea

RobertRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Wir haben Ende Mai / Anfang Juni 2025 zwei wundervolle Wochen in dem Haus von Pinelopi verbracht. Es ist alles wie beschrieben! Die Terrasse ist einfach wunderbar und schön im Grünen sowie mit Meerblick. Die Lage der Unterkunft ist zentral und sehr, sehr ruhig. Pinelopi ist eine exzellente Gastgeberin! Wir wurden persönlich und herzlich empfangen. Es standen eine Flasche Olivenöl, Wein und Raki sowie ein ein Teller mit frischen Obst bereit. Darüber hinaus mehrere Flaschen Wasser. Besonders zu erwähnen ist die Sauberkeit. Pinelopi ist jederzeit ansprechbar, darüber hinaus gibt sie unzählige Ausflugs- und Restauranttipps. Fazit: Wir waren rundherum begeistert Nochmals vielen herzlichen Dank.

Platanakia Libyan sea view cottage!

NatRating, 5 stars1 week ago
A really enjoyable stay at Platankia. It was extremely well equipped and had everything you would need and more, only thing that would help would a microwave - the kids really enjoyed the toys that were in the beach basket and kept them entertained without the need for a TV etc. Be warned wifi is a bit slow but great if you want to disconnect from the Internet for a while. Some really great restaurants, would recommend Vespas for Pizzas and Vitsalo is great for seafood. Everyone in town is extremely friendly and kind and Myrtos is always contactable if you have any other queries. We enjoyed being able to pick oranges and lemons and made enough lemonade to sink a battleship! I really enjoyed the hmock and the slide and swing is great for children. It is extremely private as you have large greenhouses on both sides but at the same time it is super easy to walk into town. Overall I would definitely recommend this place and would come back. The gorge is worth seeing and lots of other stuff

Beachfront villa Phi, jacuzzi and amazing views

Stephanie Rating, 5 stars6 days ago
We called this place "the mansion." The views are absolutely breathtaking and the accommodations pristine. The beautiful beach is across the street and the hotel nearby has an outside bar on that beach. We ended up renting a car because we could tell driving in Crete was easier than places like Mykonos and Athens. We ventured to a few places like Richtis Gorge and the downtown harbor; excellent shopping with some closed (no vehicles) streets. We wished we had more time here! Our host was very kind and also helpful in booking the car rental after our arrival. We highly recommend Villa Phi!! Thank you.

Villa Antikleia

JérômeRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Magdalena war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Check-in und -out waren flexibel und unkompliziert. Da wir das Glück hatten, dass vor uns keine anderen Gäste im Haus waren, konnten wir eher als angegeben einchecken. Außerdem war im Haus alles zu finden, was man für die ersten Tage so braucht und bei unserer Ankunft war alles sauber und ordentlich. Sogar ein paar Bier standen bereits im Kühlschrank. :) Die Einrichtung/Geräte im Haus sind zwar nicht super-modern, trotzdem versprüht die Unterkunft viel Charm und ist sehr gemütlich und ruhig gelegen. Besonders der Ausblick direkt aufs Meer ist ein Highlight. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Danke dafür! :)

Fotini Anisaras Apartments "Α"

MelanieRating, 5 stars8 months ago
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

Villa Menelaos Penthouse

Kay & MarkRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Absolutely fantastic, five stars quite honestly isn’t enough for Menelaos and his beautiful penthouse villa. The villa is perfectly located….it really couldn’t be closer to the sea, with unique views of Mochlos, the island and the coasts to the east and west. It’s equipped with everything you could possibly need for a long or short stay, and the balcony is just perfect….the hardest thing was to drag ourselves away from it! Most importantly Menelaos is an absolutely perfect host, we’ve never had a welcome like it and we immediately felt at home, Menelaos is a true gentleman. We’re lucky to spend quite a bit of time in Crete and will definitely return to Menelaos Penthouse Villa….in fact I’m already planning our next visit!

We had an amazing week - we really enjoyed the house and its amenities and the beach is just across the street, so it’s a great place to disconnect and enjoy. If you like to run, there’s a long beach just a few mins away. Hosts were great, very responsive and super helpful. 100% recommend, would definitely come back.

Das Apartment von Cristina ist wirklich super. Es liegt direkt über ihrem Supermark. Man gelangt über eine Treppe direkt runter zum Hafen und Strand. Bars, Restaurants etc. sind sehr nah. Die Wohnung oben ist nicht barrierefrei, aber machbar auch wenn man nicht gut zu Fuß ist. Die Ausstattung innen ist auch super. Die Terrasse ist ein Highlight. Auch ein Parkplatz ist direkt auf dem Grundstück. Sehr zu empfehlen.

Gold Sea Place

AnnieRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This was our favourite stay of the trip. The place is idyllic, with a private swimming area only a few steps away. The house is decorated tastefully and gives a really nice indoor-outdoor feeling with the large patio and sliding doors. The kitchen is extremely well-stocked with everything you might need to cook, including well-sharpened knives! Manolis brought us some fresh vegetables from the farm, which were delicious. Everything about the place is thoughtful and we loved our stay there. It is ideal for a trip where you want to spend a lot of time relaxing at the house and hanging out, it is so nice we barely wanted to leave!

Blue Paradise Beach Suite 2

BenediktRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Wir waren zu zweit für insgesamt fünf Nächte vor Ort. Die Unterkunft ist traumhaft und liegt direkt in einer schönen Bucht mit einem schönen Strand. Für zwei Personen ist die Unterkunft vom Platz her völlig ausreichend und gut ausgestattet. Am Strand befindet sich ein Restaurant mit leckerem griechischen Essen zu fairen Preisen. Die Bucht eignet sich super zum schnorcheln und zum schwimmen, da das Meer die meiste Zeit sehr ruhig ist. Möchte man mehr erleben, als den Tag am Meer zu verbringen, so ist man definitiv auf ein Auto angewiesen, was für Kreta aber normal ist. Christina als Host war sehr herzhaft, zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. Hatte man Fragen, so wurden diese umgehend via Textnachricht beantwortet. Ich kann die Unterkunft und Christina als Host nur jedem empfehlen.
