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

Luxury Villa with Private pool next to sandy beach
The pictures don’t do this view justice. It’s breathtaking! The home is gorgeous and the outdoor space is wonderful. It was too cold for us to swim but we still enjoyed time at the beach. Most of the immediate area was already shut down for the season during our stay but there is a lovely area about a mile walk away. We spent a lot of time there enjoying the coffee shops and restaurants. The house and rooms were fantastic and there was more than enough space for everyone to relax. The host was amazing and went above and beyond to help us when we left some glasses at a restaurant. Thank you so much for a great stay!!

Dion house 🏡🏡
Athina und ihre Familie sind tolle Gastgeber, sehr herzlich und hilfsbereit. Sie machen es mit Herz, dass merkt man. Besser kann man es nicht machen! Sie sind auch jederzeit erreichbar, wenn man Fragen hat, einfach toll! Die Unterkunft ist wie auf den Bildern. Wir waren mit unserem kleinen Sohn und Hund da, beide wurden sehr herzlich empfangen. Für Kinder sind Buddelzeug, Kinderstühle und Planschbecken vorhanden. Wir haben auch einige tolle Gastgeschenke erhalten, was ebenso sehr nett ist. (Obst, Olivenöl, Wein und selbstgemachte Kleinigkeiten) Parkplätze findet man immer, entweder auf dem Grundstück oder an der Straße. Mit dem Auto erreicht man in kurzer Zeit viele tolle Restaurants und einen tollen Sandstrand. Die Nachbarn sind ebenso sehr nett. Wir können es für Familien nur empfehlen!

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
Vielen lieben Dank Vasilis, wir haben uns während unseres Aufenthaltes sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Lage war prima und der Balkon ein echtes Highlight. Ich würde die Unterkunft jederzeit weiterempfehlen.

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.

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.

VILLA MARY, ΓΙΑ ΙΔΙΑΙΤΕΡΗ ΔΙΑΜΟΝΗ.
En George i la Nicoleta són una familia encantadora i molt acollidora que ens han fet sentir com a casa i ens han ofert mil detalls per fer-nos tastar productes típics de la seva terra elaborats per ells mateixos. Les vistes són espectaculars i la casa té tots els detalls molt ben cuidats. També tenen jocs de taula i joguines per nens. Altament recomanable!! Gràcies per aquest tracte tan personal.
Beachfront home rentals with a pool

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!

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.

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
Es war wundervoll, die Jungs und ich fanden am tollsten das Kaminfeuer und den Whirl im Freien, aber auch die schöne ländliche Umgebung und den Sternenhimmel bei Nacht. Sogar selbst gebackenes wurde uns vorbeigebracht. Es waren sehr liebe Gastgeber. Danke.

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.

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.

Anasa Luxury Seafront Villa with Heatable Pool
Wat een heerlijke eerste vakantie met onze dochter van 14 maanden! Ons verblijf in de luxe villa overtrof echt al onze verwachtingen – in werkelijkheid is het nóg mooier dan op de foto’s. Georgia, de verhuurster, was ongelooflijk vriendelijk, attent en behulpzaam. Alles was tot in de puntjes geregeld: babybedje, buggy, commode en zelfs een autostoel stonden al klaar. Toen we aangaven dat de stopcontacten precies op ooghoogte van onze kleine zaten, werd deze feedback tot onze verrassing de volgende dag opgevolgd en zijn de stopcontacten kindveilig gemaakt. Hoewel er net voor onze aankomst een flinke zandstorm was geweest, was daar niets meer van te merken. Alles was brandschoon en hygiënisch. Dankzij de geweldige service, warme ontvangst en prachtige accommodatie voelden we ons meteen thuis. Het was onze eerste keer op Kreta, maar zeker niet de laatste – we raden deze plek van harte aan!

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)
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.

Antigoni Apartments 'Lavender Room'
Wir wurden sehr herzlich von Marinas und Aristeas Eltern empfangen. Das Apartment ist einfach und zweckmäßig ausgestattet, alles war sehr sauber und wir fanden bei der Ankunft einen Teller mit Obst im Kühlschrank. Die Unterkunft liegt in einem wunderschönen Garten. Strand, Tavernen und ein kleiner Supermarkt sind zu Fuß in 10 Minuten erreichbar. Die Kommunikation war sehr herzlich, wir durften im Garten Zitronen pflücken und die Eltern haben uns mit griechischem Kaffee und selbstgebackenem Kuchen verwöhnt. Vielen Dank an Aristea und Marina für ihre Gastfreundschaft.

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
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!

Anfi Suites 3
Ich habe mich unglaublich wohl gefühlt. Der Blick auf das Meer war traumhaft. Da überall Restaurants und Hotels sind, war abends Musik zu hören, aber mit geschlossenen Türen war alles ruhig. Es war super sauber und alles da, was man brauchte.

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!
