EVELAND ACCESSIBLE VILLAS BRAND NEW NEAR THE SEA.
The villas were even better than the fotos show. It is very clean, you got everything you need (towels, kitchen aid etc.) and the athmosphere at the location is pretty relaxing. The pool has a perfect temperature and is always clean. There is also a supermarket and some restaurants that you can reach by walking in 5-10 minutes. Also, you are 2 minutes away from the highway by car, from which you can reach the beautiful city of Rethymno in about 10 minutes. As to Michael, he was one of the best (if not the best) Airbnb hosts I have ever met. Very cool, caring and reliable person who responds to your messages pretty quick. All in all Eveland Accesible Villas are a perfect solution for a worry and stress free vacation with everything you need to stay in Crete and explore the island as well as enjoying a chill day at the pool.

Nisos Villa, Pool & SpaWhirlpool, Walking to Beach
The house is as described. Perfect destination for a family if you want a more peaceful location for a vacation. The beach is wonderfully peaceful. Services are within a 5-15 minute walk. The owner greeted us when we arrived and told us how everything works. He had brought food to the fridge, a perfect start to the holiday! They were really friendly, helpful and guided when needed. I highly recommend it!

Athel Panoramic view Villas Athina
Excellent accommodation, very clean. Not far from Rethymno, 10 minutes' drive. And 1 hour from Chania. Very responsive host. The only downside: unheated pool

Filio Luxury Villa with private pool
Adamantios is a wonderful host. The villa is beautiful and exactly as described in the photos. We were made to feel welcome straight away woth homemade cake and olive oil as well as other bits. Adamantios was quick to respond to any questions we had and jumped to our rescue when our rental car battery died! The villa is t really walking distance to anywhere so my top recommendation would be to get a rental car with good AC! There are very few places around the area to park in the shade so if you have rubbish AC like we did, the journeys can be stressful. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to have a bit of space from the business of local areas and wanting to switch off at the gorgeous pool!

Orizontes Deluxe Residence
We had a wonderful 5 nights at this property, accompanied by our two teenaged children and my parents who are 79 & 81. It has panoramic views of the sea and surrounding Cretan landscape that are gorgeous, as are the grounds themselves. The house is accessed by an automated gate, so private and secure. The outside amenities are amazing and no detail has been spared, especially for families, as described in the listing. There is an elevator, which we predominantly used for luggage but is handy with older family members as the bedrooms are on the 2nd and 3rd floors. There are three bedrooms on the 2nd floor, all with their own en suite bathrooms, two with showers and one with a soaking tub. The top floor is its own suite with the stairs open to below so great if you are traveling with a family but maybe less so if you are four couples. The communication was excellent, with Roy responding to WA messages within moments, regardless of hour and the housekeeper came daily. We loved our stay!

5* Luxury Living Steps from Long Sandy Beach
Beautiful stay at Villa Marae, exactly as in the pictures the villa is spacious, modern and welcoming with all amenities you could need, we felt right at home for the entire week. All the bedrooms have spacious wardrobes and plenty of hangers, all with en-suite bathrooms, good quality bath towels and beach towels, comfortable beds. The outside space is serene, with views of the ocean and some beautiful sunsets too. Welcomed at the villa by the owner Maria, who shown us around, provided a welcome basket and also some other shopping essentials as we arrived very late. She also met us when leaving to say goodbye with a Cretan gift as souvenir. The personal touch was lovely. Etouri Team are very responsive to queries, recommendations and we found them super helpful. Overall a 5* stay

Villa Aarum - Your Idyllic Retreat in Crete !
We we’re two families with toddlers who stayed at Frode’s house, and the house with all its amenities worked great for a fun, easy family friendly vacation. Frode was very easy and quick to communicate with, both before and during the stay, and was very friendly and helpful when we need it. Can absolutely recommend this host and house! 😄

Coastal Villa Aya: Minimalist Elegance by etouri
We had an idyllic week The villa was perfect. Katerina is a wonderful host who always went above and beyond expectations. The welcome pack she left for us was just the right amount to get started and a little more, including olive oil, vinegar and raki all made by her family. We were walking distance to coffee shops, supermarkets, some lovely restaurants and a rocky beach close by. The villa is close to the main road but we did not feel too disturbed by that. There is an operational potato field right in front of the villa and it just so happened to be picking week when we were there. The tractor was was a little noisy and smelly but that is unlikely to happen very often and they left 2 big boxes of potatoes by the gate for us. Help was available arranging taxis, restaurant reservations, excursions, car hire, airport transfers and more, and messages were answered very quickly. Some of us went to relax, others to be more adventurous and every box was ticked. We hope to return

Villa Mystique, heated pool, luxury, sea view
A wonderful place to stay. The pool was gorgeous and the villa was spotless. Very peaceful during our may trip. Able to park right outside. Very responsive and proactive host

Lygaries, villa Louisa , by the sea, no car needed
Loved this villa and hope to be back sometime in the future. It is just like the pictures. Ideal for the beach and restaurants as no need for a car. Host was very accommodating and let us leave our cases in the villa as we had a late flight.

Mama la Roosa Luxury Retreat
We loved staying at Petros's place. The location is picture perfect and completely serene, coupled with the stunning views - perfect getaway gem. The villa is beautifully designed with lots of places to explore and hang out in. Petros is very accommodating and all around helpful from assisting us in setting up the outdoor speakers to offering to make restaurant reservations on our behalf. We had an absolutely amazing time and hope to stay at the villa again when we come back to Crete. Highly recommend!

Skyline Iconic Villa
Really enjoyed this stay, the villa is amazing and brilliant for a group of friends

Luxurious villa with swimming pool - Villa Vasilico
An absolute gem, we had an amazing stay at Maria's place. The house is absolutely beautiful, modern with quality all around. It's also super private with nothing but nature around you. Will definitely be coming back!!

Canvas Villas by the sea
Excellent stay with family, a real pleasure to have discovered Crete and to relax in the accommodation and in the pool morning and evening (and even a few lunchtimes😉). Services that match the venue. A splendid and quiet view. Remember to plan your trips for visits because you have to take the road as soon as you want to visit, however the city center, the beaches and a very good restaurant are within walking distance, pure happiness! A big thank you to the host and the various service teams who facilitate our stay. I'm validating!

Spacious Villa*Private Pool with Hydromassage*BBQ
We had a wonderful stay at this stunning villa. So tranquil, we all loved it. It was well designed and we had everything we needed for our nine day stay. The owners were very quick to respond to a couple of queries we had. One of the best Airbnb we have stayed at. We will definitely be back

Villa Empire Ultimate Luxury villa - heated pool
We stayed for 1 week (4adults and 4 kids) having been to Crete a number of times before. The villa was up in the hills (you need to hire a car to get anywhere and driving on the small lanes is not for the faint hearted) but this gave us the beautiful views over the bay and a lovely sea breeze. The house was immaculate with all the essentials and mod cons including chilled filtered water from the fridge. The ice machine didn’t work so one of the team popped around with a big bag of ice the next day which we used instead. We also experienced a sandstorm (happens about once a year) with Saharan sand being deposited on everything. The cleaners were around the next morning and the pool was cleaned beautifully. The pool itself was heated to a lovely temperature so the kids could enjoy it all day and the hot tub was even warmer so the perfect place to sit and enjoy drinks. We used the outdoor built in barbecue and sat outside for dinners (great views). Karolina was very responsive! Recommend!

TreeTop Villa I, Views, Pool & Family Escape
Great stay in a quiet and sublime space. The property is impeccable, with excellent service by the owner who welcomed us with open arms with a service that allowed us to arrive without having to do any shopping before arriving. Always helpful and attentive to tenants, who directly told us about the activities and businesses in the area. Perfect place to relax and recharge. Highly recommend it.

Family Getaway | Kids' Pool & Ping Pong by Etouri
One of the best airbnbs I’ve ever stayed at. The house is just like the pictures and the pool and outside area is so beautiful it’s hard to believe you are really there when you wake up every morning. Paid extra to heat the pool and it was so worth it with our 3 year old and a baby. They didn’t want to leave the water. The owners of the villa are so so nice and kept bringing us fresh fruit from their garden and really baked Greek treats. Will 100% be coming back.

Luxury Beachside Living, a Step Away from Beach!
I can’t recommend the apartment enough. It was the best equipped rental I have ever stayed in and the location is beyond fabulous. A few steps down to the beach, the views from the terrace, 2 mins away from a handful of great restaurants, a cafe right next door and 15 mins walk into the main town. It has everything for a relaxed stay but everything on your doorstep when you want it. The house is as the photos depict - stylish and luxurious. A stay here will not disappoint! Loved every moment of it and wonderful hosts.

Dive into Bliss! Summer Oasis of Elegance & Joy
Super sweet people. Everything was well arranged. Despite the sandstorm, they really gave top service. We even got pizza as an apology while they couldn't do anything about it. Very sweet. Definitely a villa to go to once.

Elevate Your Escape: Rokkea Villa 350m from Beach
A fantastic house with wonderful sea views and all the amenities! Tastefully decorated with good quality both indoors and outdoors. Very private location with no insight. Lovely patio with pool, parasols and outdoor furniture. Was received in person in the house at the appointed time and was given a tour of the house and all the features as well as a basket of specialties from Crete. Walking distance about 5-10 minutes to Plakias with shops and restaurants. The only thing we wanted was a few more hooks to hang clothes on.

Feyre Boutique Mansion walking distance to beach
The place was just great! Everything was super clean, super modern and really well equipped – just as shown in the pictures. We felt totally comfortable from the beginning and we didn't miss anything. The host was very warm and helpful. We also found the great service particularly nice – on request, restaurant tables were even reserved for us. We can really recommend the house from the heart and would be happy to come back!

Sunshine Villa - Fairytale countryside villa!
this is a great Villa to stay at in central Crete that made it easy to branch off to many other areas of the island the best part was the Villa itself with its swimming pool and the views. great place to stay close to the small village of margarite. highly recommend it's got to be one of the best places to stay in all of Crete. Michalis was a great representing host.

Inn Villa - Pool, BBQ, Playground & Close to Beach
beautiful spot. very well stocked. you will need a car to get into town. there are a store, bakery, restaurants and pharmacy close enough to be able to use the bikes but if you want to get into town, rental car is advisable. beach is close enough to use the bikes to get to and has cute little restaurant right on the beach. you can also rent umbrellas and chairs there. we had the best vacation and can not wait to return
