Apartment vacation rentals in Sfakaki

This was one of the nicest AirBnB apartments I have rented. What was responsive to questions prior to the trip, arranging taxi service from the airport. Even though our flight was two hours late and we didn't arrive until 10 pm she was there to greet us and show us the apartment. Her restaurant recommendations were outstanding. Finally, the location on the outskirts of Old Town Rethymno could not have been better. I enthusiastically recommend this place!

Beautiful and clean place to stay! Great location right next to Rethymo. Would stay here again!

We had a wonderful time at Nikos's place. Nikos was great, he's probably one of the friendliest hosts I've ever encountered on Airbnb. The place was exactly like in the photos, clean and cozy, and the host was always helpful and answered our questions whenever we had some.

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

One of my favorite Airbnbs. The apartment is spotless, beautifully decorated, and full of thoughtful touches—truly exceeded expectations. Our host was incredibly friendly and welcomed us with an amazing olive oil cake. Mirthios is peaceful and charming, just a short drive to beaches and shops. The best restaurant is right across the street. Couldn’t recommend more

A very nice place to stay with everything you need and a view of the beach☺️

Elizabeth and Lily's place is absolutely gorgeous. The house was impecable. Super clean. Very spacious, lots of bright light, and also has automatic dark shades. Towels were super comfortable, you get both shower and beach towels. We had a welcome basket with bread, jam, honey, there was fruit and water bottles in the fridge. Super attentive host. The house is probably the best one in the complex. Excellent view of the ocean, you can see some magnificent sunsets right from the balcony. There is also a terrace where you can have breakfast/coffee. The pool is super close, clean and gated with a keypad. Very secure area. Absolutely loved it. I wish I was there still. Will definitely go back and highly recommend it to everyone!

Lovely apartment, good location and great view. the ocean waves put us to sleep well. thanks to Simon for the experience.

Chrysa is a very friendly and helpful host. She answered all our questions very fast. The apartment was very clean and just like in the pictures. We felt very comfortable and would love to come back.

Vasilis helped us a lot when we contacted him at short notice in Rethymno with our request to move to his apartment out of necessity. He responded immediately, was very accommodating and made a quick move possible. The decor was lovely, the beach within walking distance and the communication great! Everything was great. Note: The adjacent hotel often has evening events that can be clearly heard in the apartment. After midnight, however, it was always quiet. Thanks again, Vasilis and highly recommended!

We are now back home and have reflected on the time a bit. From check-in to check-out, just amazing. We felt right at home. Traditional food was regularly placed in front of the door by the family. At the beginning, we were also surprised by this. We had a great rental car and drove around the area a bit. The place is perfect for that. Approximately 1 hour from Heraklion Airport and everything else accessible. Would we book again and again.

amazing stay and we enjoyed the welcome gifts. thank you again for a great stay!

**Great stay in Rethymno** Stayed here for 11 days and found the apartment clean and fairly well-maintained. Though it's on a main road, the double-paned windows and doors do an excellent job blocking noise. The host was responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The location works well - easy access to the beach and nice sunrise views over the city. Rethymno's position makes it convenient for day trips around Crete, whether heading east, west, or south to the smaller coastal towns. Clean, comfortable, and well-located for exploring the island. Would stay again.

Maryellen communicated really well before and during the stay. The house is a fantastic location but you need a car or taxi to get to local restaurants and into Chania. Maryellen even booked the taxi for us to Chania. The house is fully equipped with everything. The views are amazing over looking the sea. The outside space is great with magical pool. It’s on a hill so probably not suitable for people who find it difficult with stairs and because the pool is an infinity pool you would need to be careful of children in the pool. The house is private and in a quiet location. We will be going back, one of the best Airbnb we have been to.

If you’re trying to decide, just book it! This was probably my favorite place in Greece that we stayed. Great location, wonderful terrace. Well equipped kitchen. Lots of little extras that made us feel at home like creamer for coffee, toast with jam and honey. Wash machine was a bonus. Great communication. Would book again without hesitation!

We had an amazing stay. The place is lovely, clean and Χριστινα was very nice and welcoming. Would definitely recommend!

Although we booked for 3 people and it was only prepared for 2, the host was very quick and helpful in solving the problem! Very good room and conditions :)

The space was spacious, comfortable, and had a beautiful view. We especially loved the large deck—perfect for enjoying morning coffee or dining outdoors. The location is great, with a wonderful bakery and market just a short walk away. You’ll need a car to explore the town and surrounding area, but everything is within a short, easy drive. Our host was incredibly welcoming and responsive, sharing great tips and insights about the area. They also took the time to share aspects of the local culture, which made our stay feel even more special. We were lucky to be in Rethymno over Easter—it was an unforgettable experience!

Mike was great from the start…we booked last minute and he texted me immediately. He made everything very easy and was extremely friendly when we got there to check in. He showed us everything about the apartment that we needed to know and gave us lots of tips on where to go to eat and to see the best sites. The rooftop space was beautiful and the apartment was very close to everything in the area… We were able to walk to everything! I would definitely recommend staying there… Thank you, Mike!

Great stay, great location, great views. Very close to many bars and restaurants. Not too noisy at night. The only slightly negative aspect was the shower. Basically made the entire floor flooded. Overall, i would recommend the place and would definitely return.

Hidden gem! Loved this home, literally two minute walk to Golden Beach. Katerina is so sweet (she met us in-person, had local restaurant recommendations, and even provided a bottle of wine). The home was perfect for our group of 6 (great value for the money, too). Would 100% come again!

Beautiful place and great host

We loved our stay at the Alice Villa. Location is truly fantastic for shopping and loads of restaurants. We spent quite a bit of time at the villa when the weather wasn’t the greatest and we couldn’t have been happier. Thank you Marianna for the wonderful hospitality and the gifts. Have to mention the people we met in the restaurants and on the streets, soooo friendly. We were very sad to leave. Could’ve stayed a lot Longer. Book it, youll love it. Until next time.

Andreas was a friendly and responsive host who answered our questions promptly. The flat was well equipped and in an excellent location very close to the old town. We would definitely stay again when next back in Chania!
