Villa Alma in Crete, Sea View 2min from the beach!

SabrinaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
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

EmilyRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Beautiful place, great for families. Lots of toys and even a potty for the kids! Cleaner came mid week which was not necessary but so great. Beach is a 3 min walk. Really need a car to get there which was fine for us! Thanks for everything.

House in a sunny Cretan garden.

MitjaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Absolut empfehlenswert! Penelopi und ihr Mann sind hervorragende Gastgeber, die uns mit Herzlichkeit und Gastfreundlichkeit empfangen haben. Das Apple Apartment ist wunderschön, top ausgestattet und sehr gepflegt. Zahlreiche Bäume und Pflanzen umranden die gemütliche Terrasse. Der Ort ist sehr ruhig und man ist in wenigen Minuten am Strand von Koutsounari. Die Stadt Ierapetra ist nur wenige Auto Minuten entfernt. Der Innenbereich ist ebenso sehr gepflegt und die Einrichtung ist im typisch griechischem Stil gehalten. Wir waren nun das zweite Mal hier und würden immer wieder kommen. Wir haben Empfehlungen für Strände und Sehenswürdigkeiten bekommen, die fast nur Einheimische kennen. Wir freuen uns schon auf das nächste Mal, wenn wir Penelopi, Nikos, Sissi und Dobby wiedersehen 😇😍

Brand new ocean wave's villa!

RobertRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Great place. Great location. Kitchen was a bit small for the size of the space, but very workable. Air conditioning on the first level for the common space didn’t work (we notified the owner but were told we were wrong - we weren’t). But that didn’t really affect our stay. If the weather was hotter I could see it being an issue. But overall, we really enjoyed the rental.

A Cretan house in a garden, overlooking the sea

RobertRating, 5 stars2 weeks 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.

Villa Proistakis direct sea view 5

BirgitRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Wunderschön! Wir waren nun zum zweiten Mal in dieser traumhaften Wohnung. Alles war perfekt sauber und der Blick vom Balkon in der ersten Reihe einfach nur super auf den Pool und das Meer!! Man benötigt in dieser Gegend unbedingt ein Auto, wenn man noch andere schöne Buchten und Restaurants kennenlernen möchte... Wir würden gerne wiederkommen..

Almy Luxury Villa

RobRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This place is a treasure. The views from the living room and kitchen are spectacular. The house has many clever features that are well designed. The area around Almyrida is fun to explore--go down to the beach or on a hike along the coast. Almyrida is a cute beach town, very welcoming. And we did several further from the town adventures. We had no idea that Crete has so much to offer--pottery in Margarites, beautiful beaches, intense hikes, exceptional museums, exploring Hania's historic streets. The property management team were wonderful to interact with. We felt so fortunate to find such a gem. Thank you!!! We sure hope we can return.

Luxury Villa with Private pool next to sandy beach

OliviaRating, 5 stars7 months ago
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!!

Sunterra - Studio with pool

SophiaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Die Unterkunft in Kokkini Hani war insgesamt sehr schön. Alles war sauber und gepflegt, es war wirklich alles vorhanden, was man braucht – von Küchenutensilien bis hin zu Strandhandtüchern. Die Lage ist ein echtes Highlight: Direkt am Strand, man hört das Meer schon beim Aufwachen. Der Gastgeber war sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und gut erreichbar, was den Aufenthalt noch angenehmer gemacht hat. Ein kleiner Wermutstropfen: Die Raumaufteilung ist sehr offen gestaltet, wodurch es keine wirkliche Privatsphäre in den einzelnen Zimmern gibt. Wer Wert auf getrennte Schlafräume legt, sollte das bedenken. Trotzdem eine tolle Unterkunft in traumhafter Lage – perfekt für einen entspannten Strandurlaub!

"Nuez Villas" Two Storey Villa with a Sea View

AlisonRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Beautiful villa inside and out - loved every minute of our stay there. It's an excellent location for lovely village of Mochlos and there's a bay where you can swim to left of harbour. Marilou was always on hand with any recommendations etc we needed. Only negative is we didn't realise that the bedroom with its own entrance is actually in a basement so very little natural light. Didn't bother us but does mean you don't see the beautiful views. Can imagine it keeps cooler in peak summer though.

Aega - Akra Grammeno Beachfront Villa with pool

ChristophRating, 5 stars11 months ago
This place is absolutely amazing. My wife and I spent our honeymoon at Aikaterinis apartment and we were completely satisfied. The inside provides everything what we needed. The description was absolutely accurate. The fridge is very spacious and there is a freezer as well. We cooked quite a lot therefore this was very helpful for us. The pool outside is very clean and also the temperature was perfect for the hot days in Greece. You can really relax at this place because there is not a lot of tourism at this area on Crete. Also the beach in front of the house is quite nice. We put our hammock under some trees and were watching the sunrise over Paleochora. I can totally recommend this apartment, especially for couples who want some relaxing time and together.

Anasa Luxury Seafront Villa with Heatable Pool

MathijsRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
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!

Zen House Crete

AileenRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our family of five visited for just three nights. It was too short – wish we could’ve stayed longer as the house is just amazing. House has gorgeous views, is well appointed and modern. We love to swim in the ocean so walked down to the swimmable beach area 1-2 day to swim. Andrew the house concierge met us upon arrival and gave us a walk through which was super helpful. He also baked us delicious baklava which we nibbled on the whole trip - what a treat. He also helped with restaurants and a boat booking. Definitely rent a car if you are staying here as there isn’t anything walking distance but driving to restaurants and parking was very easy.

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

Traditional stone house by the sea...

PatriciaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Antonis’s place exceeded expectations in every way. Our host, George (father of Antonis) greeted us with wine, treats, welcoming words, and two adorable dogs - we felt at home and began relaxing immediately. The grounds were even better than the photos - the house is spacious, comfortable, gorgeous. The upstairs veranda overlooking the sea was a highlight - a perfect spot for morning yoga and evening stargazing. We kept discovering new wonders - the trail to the beach through the olive trees, vegetable garden, exquisite woodwork and masonry; not to mention the incredible views of mountains, meadows, and sea. The sound of the waves all night was a beautiful lullaby. The village is very quiet in early April when we were there. Nothing was open so we brought in all of our supplies, which was good because once you’ve made it down the mountain, you’ll want to stay put until it’s time to leave. - no quick trips into town from there! Def bring a sturdy vehicle! Can’t wait to go back!

Het is een heerlijke plek op slechts een paar meter van de zee. Rondom het huis zijn verschillende zitjes, zodat je altijd een plekje in de zon of juist schaduw hebt. Het voelt echt als een paradijs op aarde waar je heerlijk tot rust komt. Het is zeker een plek om nog eens terug te komen

Cretan Dream house by the sea

TristanRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Nous avons grandement apprécié notre logement pendant ces quelques jours ! Le logement est propre, fonctionnel, très bien équipé et l’hôte très réactif. Que dire des deux extérieurs magnifiques ! La grande terrasse sur le toit pour se reposer a l’ombre en toute intimité avec vue sur la mer. La petite terrasse devant la maison est elle incroyable, les pieds dans l’eau. La maison est très bien située, à quelques mètres du centre- ville et le bar à côté est un vrai atout pour prendre un verre ou un repas depuis notre propre terrasse. Une petite perle tout comme la ville de Mochlos.

AntjeRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Wir waren zum dritten Mal in der Villa Riviera und sind immer wieder auf‘s Neue verzückt. Ich kann es nicht in Worte fassen, man muss es selbst erleben. Dieser Ort wirkt verzaubernd. Nasos, Chara und Babis sind offen, herzlich…. Griechen halt…. ob Du die Sprache kannst, ein bisschen englisch egal, man versteht sich auf Herzebene. Für uns ist es ein Paradies. Wir wünschen Nasos, Chara und Babis nur das Beste. Und….. wir kommen wieder. Antje und Axel

Endroit paradisiaque. Je n’ai rarement été dans un endroit aussi magique. Vous êtes bercés jour et nuit par le bruit des vagues, vous pouvez vous baigner dans l’eau turquoise au pied du cottage. Le cottage est super bien équipé : cuisine moderne, salle de bain très propre, climatisation et TV connectée. À proximité de bars et restaurants Tout était parfait
