Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Decentralized Administration of Crete

A wonderful week at the end of the season. Peaceful, well equipped and great views. Lovely host, felt so welcome. Perfect.

Extremely beautiful and friendly!

I had a wonderful stay at Agave Suites! The location is a 2 min walk to the old city but still very quiet. The room was spacious and Nikos was always responsive to my questions and recommended some wonderful restaurants in Chania. Would absolutely stay here again!

Very nice place, clear constructions from the host, some sweats & local beverage to welcome the guests, really worth it!

The one-room apartment on the first floor above a good bakery corresponded to the photos. The balcony was larger than expected. The friendly landlord supplied us well with produce from his garden. The price/quality ratio was right.

We had an exceptional welcome from Andreas and Maria. The accommodation is impeccable, the pool area is very nice and the sea view is superb. We loved having breakfast in the morning on the quiet terrace. Their tavern is really a must, the food is incredible and the welcome wonderful! Thank you so much for your stay.

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!

We felt comfortable and were welcomed by George in a super friendly way and accompanied with travel restaurant tips throughout the vacation, the communication took place very simply, reliably and quickly via WhatsApp, which we found very pleasant. We received excellent restaurant tips from George! Accommodation is very well maintained and clean, a beautiful planted outdoor area, great view of the sea, unfortunately we could not use the pool due to the weather, but it looked very inviting. Due to the steep slope, you can only get by on foot, which is why our rental car was worth its weight in gold... it's worth it anyway, Crete has so much to offer. Good starting point for excursions by car to explore the island.

Fantastic place. Great views from the sun terrace overlooking the bay, so could sit and watch boats and cruise ships on their way to Chania. Only 5 mins walk down a gentle hill to the beach, shops & restaurants. Felt very private, although there were other apartments there, it is laid out so you are not overlooked. Everything was spotlessly clean on arrival and apartment staff were there every day keeping the pool and surrounding areas clean & tidy. Gas BBQ on the terrace was great. Good choice of restaurants along the beach, as well as a few small supermarkets in the centre. 40 mins drive from the airport and well positioned for visiting Chania (which was beautiful) and exploring the area. We had a thoroughly relaxing stay and have already recommended it to friends, and would definitely stay again. Kreta Eiendom's team were very responsive, when we had a small issue during our stay.

It was super nice here. We were warmly welcomed and communication went smoothly. The place is as pictured. You're a bit up the mountain, which is super nice because it's much quieter there. The city and the beach are within walking distance. We were very satisfied.

Best airbnb we have ever stayed at because of Andonis's (and his mother, Maria, who lives in the same complex) hospitality. Andonis gave us great recommendations and even dropped off a bottle of delicious rose. Maria made our stay feel like a home. She brought us oranges from her garden for fresh juice, dolma made with zucchini flower, and spanakopita. The kitchen was also fully equipped so we were able to cook at home at least two meals a day. If we return to Crete, we can't wait to stay again.

The place is quite clean and quiet. It is located the top floor and the ocean view from the room is wonderful. It has sufficient kitchen equipment, large living and bed rooms. A free parking spot is close by. I recommend this place.

Great place to stay, within walking distance of centre. Giannis is a fabulous host and was so responsive and helpful to any queries we had. He. left us eggs and fruits and other goodies. Highly recommend Giannis place. Thanks for letting us stay we loved it.

Eva‘s apartement was super clean and exactly like she described. Our plane was late but our check-in was flexible thanks to Eva. She made us feel at home right away and also came bearing gifts for us, traditional Raki and amazingly fresh fruits (her figs were delicious!!). She also sent us many recommendations on what to do, which restaurant to check out and her preferred beaches etc. Also, we were able to park our rental car at her property. We stayed only 10 days which was too short as always. The bedroom was perfectly dark thanks to the blinds so our sleep was deep and recharging. Overall, I can fully recommend Eva‘s place. It‘s a perfect place to chill and relax and it‘s not too far away from the beaches and restaurants. Thanks for making our stay so awesome!

From the start, Sia and her husband were very warm and welcoming. At check-in, they walked us through the apartment, which looked exactly like the photos. The view is fantastic from the front balcony. Everything was very clean. Loved that there were electronic blinds for most windows. We rented a car and there was a parking spot available for us in Sia's garage. We did find the bed a bit too hard for our tastes (to each their own!), and we sometimes had trouble with the wifi dropping in the main bedroom. Overall, we loved Sia's place and would stay there again!

Ioanna was the most incredible host we have ever had, she is very thoughtful, the apartment was great, with lots of little extras like food and beverages for us. The outside terrace is amazing, a great place to eat, relax, and hang out. The kitchen and bathroom are well stocked with everything a traveler would need. The location is close to the beach and restaurants and walkable to the old town, and also quiet. Ioanna was a great communicator and kept us well fed, arranged transportation to the airport, and quickly answered any questions I had. I highly recommend this place, and I hope that we can stay there again someday!

Fantastic luxury place, very spacious with enormous veranda. Easy parking right on the street. Fantastic mattresses , perfect firmness, slept very comfortably. Highly recommend!

We can highly recommend this accommodation. It's tucked away in a very secluded spot, which makes it wonderfully peaceful. At the same time, you can reach restaurants and a mini market in just a few minutes. A car is essential! The garden is stunning. The biodiversity is incredible. There's always something new to discover. The house is quite small and simply furnished, but that was absolutely fine. Everything was clean, and that's what matters most. The long driveway leading to the house can be a bit intimidating—it just slopes down without any railing or guard. But that’s just part of the Cretan charm. Giannis was always very friendly and helpful—thank you for everything! We also got to know the neighboring family and even visited them. Such kind people. And the animals! Aphroditi the horse, a peacock, chickens, and turkeys—our daughter loved them. Overall a great experience. We were very happy and would definitely recommend it. Who knows—maybe we’ll be back in a few years!

Irini is a warm and attentive owner to her hosts. Through all its little touches, flexibility and good humor, you can only feel at home! The environment is soothing, the apartment matches the photos and the hot tub a real plus! We were not able to enjoy the pool because of the weather but the setting is pleasant, it is to share with Irini's family who is as friendly as she is. You will have from time to time the visit of his cat and away from the dog. I can only recommend hoping to come back one day and discover the evolution of the site🥰. Thanks for everything!

I had the pleasure of staying at Villa Majo with my family for two weeks in August. The villa itself is beautiful and ideally located in Agia Palagia, just 20 minutes from Heraklion and about the same distance from the airport. The property is brand new and impeccably maintained, featuring five comfortable bedrooms. The upstairs rooms offer stunning sea views, making mornings truly special. What truly sets this place apart is the exceptional hospitality. Maria, the owner, is incredibly attentive and goes above and beyond to cater to your every need, acting almost like a personal concierge. Whether it's arranging beach trips, restaurant reservations, or even a manicure, Maria has it covered. And the massage—simply the best I've ever had! Rena, who looks after the villa, prepares and serves delicious breakfasts daily and cooks amazing dinners in their charming wine room, separate from the main house. Her culinary skills are outstanding. I highly recommend villa Majo. Perfect stay !

We stayed a week and couldn’t have been happier with the accommodations. The house is quiet and spacious with everything we needed. The whole town is easily walkable and very peaceful, full of kind people.

Our family had a wonderful stay in this beautiful, luxurious villa. Emmanuel is a fantastic host- generous, welcoming, kind, and always helpful. We feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to stay in this very special villa.

A beautiful Crete getaway in a great home. Charikleia will always be there for you to answer your questions, give you good recommendations and even bring some traditional sweets. The accommodation is very well located, quiet and relaxing with all the equipment to be comfortable during the stay. You have nearby not even a 5-minute walk to a small convenience store and a 10-minute walk to the beach and small restaurants (be careful in early November only 4 open restaurants). To get to Elafonisi or Balos, plan to drive 3h10 and 3h45. For a family of three we really enjoyed this largely livable place as a family. The pool is a real plus. It was a great vacation and I really recommend this place. Thank you again for your kindness and generosity. Thanks for the three of us!

I recently stayed at this beautiful villa in Greece, and it exceeded all my expectations! The property is stunning, with breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape and a fantastic pool that was perfect for cooling off during the hot days. The villa itself is spacious, clean, and well-maintained, with all the amenities you could need for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to prepare meals, and the bedrooms were cozy and inviting. I particularly loved spending time on the terrace, enjoying the serene views and the tranquil atmosphere. The location is ideal, situated in a nice, quiet area but still close to local attractions, beaches, and charming villages. It was the perfect base for exploring the beauty of Greece. The host was incredibly welcoming and responsive, providing excellent recommen
