Villa Alma in Crete, Sea View 2min from the beach!
we had a lovely week at Maria's place. The covered terrace is the most beautiful room in the house with beautiful sea views. The beach is less than 5 minutes' walk, but beware, for people who have difficulty walking, the slope is rather steep to climb. Maria is very responsive and responds very quickly to messages. Agia Pelagia remains a small seaside resort in a great location for visiting the north of the island. Beautiful discovery

Dion house 🏡🏡
We had a great time at the place. Athina welcomed us and we took advantage of the setting to travel between the different tourist spots (Knossos, Spinalonga, and surrounding beaches) and the beach 5 minutes' walk away which delighted us. We were a family of 4 (with 2 small children) and we had everything we needed. Thanks again

New Villa HALO just 100m from the beach
Amazing place to stay and Jekaterina is the BEST host! She was so attentive to our needs and made such fantastic recommendations everyday, which made our stay even better. Thank you Jekaterina! We hope to see you again soon!

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!

Private pool villa near a sandy beach
We will miss it. The house and pool were great. We had a wonderful time there. We also took the cats to our hearts right away.❤️ In 2 years we'll be back.

Amphitrite beach house (with private pool)
great place, perfect for a familh as well. A short walk to the beach and local taverns. A short drive to Agios Nicholas with great shopping and city walking.

Cosy house next to the beach
Matthaios was really very kind and attentive. Always available and, if unable to do so for any reason, the mother or wife have always been present. The house is cozy, quiet, and very close to the sea (50 meters) and equipped with all the comforts. Easy to get to from Heraklion airport and convenient to get to the beautiful nearby beaches. Highly recommended.

VILLA MARY, FOR A SPECIAL STAY.
George and Nicoleta are a lovely and very welcoming family who have made us feel at home and have offered us a thousand details to make us taste typical products of their land made by themselves. The views are spectacular and the house has all the thoughtful touches. They also have board games and toys for kids. Highly recommended!! Thanks for this very personal deal.

LazarLux - One-Bedroom Suite Mountain or Pool View
Thank you for everything! We were able to enjoy our stay very much. The beach and a few restaurants as well as a small supermarket were within easy walking distance. The place is beautifully decorated, especially on the balcony we loved spending time. Everything very spacious with really good amenities - even in the kitchen! Gladly again ☺️

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.

Blue Velvet Coast Seafront Villa with Heated Pool
Our stay at the villa was nothing short of incredible. The location was peaceful and serene—away from the busier tourist areas, it truly felt like our own private resort. The views were absolutely stunning, and every moment there felt like a dream. The house itself was fully equipped with everything we could possibly need, and the heated pool was a highlight—especially during the cooler evenings. It made it easy to enjoy every part of our stay, no matter the weather. George, our host, was fantastic. He was always just a message away, ready with helpful suggestions and warm hospitality. His attention to detail and genuine care made our stay even more special. We’re already dreaming about our return. Highly recommend!

Estia Apartment
Overall, we are satisfied with our stay. Particularly noteworthy is the extremely professional and friendly manner of the hosts - great praise to both of them! We found the apartment in a good and above all very clean condition. New condition, modernly furnished, air-conditioned, windows incl. mosquito nets, comfortable beds and equipped with all necessary utensils. In addition, the apartment has an outdoor shower (separate room that can be entered from the outside) and a small laundry room with a washing machine. In addition, we were able to enjoy some welcome gifts (water, beer, cocktails, nuts, etc.). It is also possible to use the pools in the hotel opposite free of charge. The only negative point is the non-optimal location of the apartment. Since the property is quite noisy and the terrace is facing the street, you get quite a lot of traffic (especially the many coaches were heard).

Traditional Cretan Style Villa with Infinity Pool
The stay was great! The place was very clean, well equipped and exactly as described in the photos. George was friendly, helpful, and responsive. I would come back anytime absolutely recommended! There were little touches from George.

Sunterra Seafront Villa with Pool !
We had an absolutely amazing stay! The house was even better than the pictures—spacious, spotless, and beautifully decorated. Our host went above and beyond to make our trip special. They were incredibly attentive, offering fantastic local recommendations and even arranging a taxi service for us, which made everything so easy. To top it all off, they surprised us with homemade traditional Easter cookies, which was such a thoughtful and personal touch. We felt so welcomed and cared for the entire time. Highly, highly recommend staying here—you won’t be disappointed!

Victoria’s Luxury Apartment-private pool, jacuzzi
It was wonderful, the boys and I loved the fire and outdoor whirl, but also the beautiful rural setting and the starry night sky. Even homemade baked goods were brought to us. They were very lovely hosts. Thank you.

Villa Nayana - seashore retreat with room service
Great weeks stay, the little villa was perfect for us. The resort of Bali was just waking up after the winter season so only one beach bar restaurant open and then the supermarkets and a restaurant on the main strip. We therefore had lunch out and ate in / cooked most evenings. Mini pool we paid extra to be heated (12/20April) and prob wasn’t worth it as we spent the days on the beach. The villa itself is beautifully decorated and very modern, baths in the bedrooms were only used for towels and swimwear to hang over! Etouri were very responsive in assisting with transfers. Holiday was very relaxing and very chilled.

Luxury Apartment in Heraklion
Very spacious, modern apt with a beautiful balcony. The street noise below made it difficult to sit out and talk there, but the view of the ocean was very nice. Well appointed kitchen. Very clean and neat. Mihalis gave us a great recommendation for dinner nearby that was lovely. We had a nice stay here

Dejablu (Heraklion)
Great! Go for it! The accommodation: Wow! Clean, cozy, comfort. A beautiful terrace with a private jacuzzi that we enjoyed a lot and a breathtaking view of the small port. A kitchen with all the amenities you need (fridge, dishes, cutlery, etc.). 2 beautiful bathrooms with all the amenities you need (towels, products, etc.). Comfortable rooms. A living room with Netflix, for those who want to relax a little in the evening. The welcome: Wow! Harry was waiting for us with a smile, despite our delay (plane, car rental, the vagaries of travel🤣). On site a lot of things to start our vacation well: fruit, cold cuts, bread, water, coke and enough for lunch (jams, honey, coffee...) The big +: Thanks to Harry for his good advice (places to visit, restaurants, taverns, beaches...) and her constant availability and speed to respond during our stay. The place: Very nice port, a little noisy and lively in the evening. Good starting point for traveling.

Cosy apartment with sea view
It was perfect. Very very friendly host and a great studio with direct views of the sea. Clean and large. Many nice touches in the fridge when we arrived. Thanks a lot for that. The location is perfect with restaurants and a mini-market nearby. Air conditioning works very well. Beautiful bathroom. In the kitchen it has everything you need. (Sandwich maker, toaster, kettle, hotplate, filter coffee maker) We were in Stalis for the third time. This room was the best of all.

The Sunny Terrace House
We were perfectly happy here, everything was as described, the hosts were super friendly and helpful, the house is perfectly equipped (we made heavy use of the sandwich toaster), there is more then enough room. The surroundings are perfect as well, it's quiet, and the beach is very near, there are also some nice restaurants there. Plus there is a bus to Heraklion that goes every half hour. There is really nothing to complain about, we felt immediately welcome, and had a great time.

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

Beachfront Red suite-Ligaria beach
amazing stay and we enjoyed the welcome gifts. thank you again for a great stay!

Anfi Suites 3
I felt incredibly comfortable The view of the sea was fantastic. Since there are restaurants and hotels everywhere, music could be heard in the evening, but with the doors closed everything was quiet. It was super clean and had everything you needed.

Laia Seafront Luxury Apartment 3
We absolutely loved our time here! The listing description was spot on. No surprises as everything was exactly as described. The best part was 100% the beach! Its literally right in front of the apartment! Falling asleep to the sound of ocean waves every night was so nice. Agia Pelagia itself is ideal for a relaxed vacation. The beach is peaceful, very clean, and has a great mix of sandy spots for lounging. There’s also a solid variety of restaurants nearby, plus plenty of supermarkets and souvenir shops just a short walk away. Everything you need is within walking distance. I came here with my best friend and we had the most amazing time. We’re already talking about when we can come back. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful seaside getaway!
