Monthly Rentals in Vafes

Great accommodation with everything you need for a peaceful, isolated stay - yet in walking distance to the beautiful downtown. The house is surrounded by nature, with views to the mountain and a nice garden very well prepared to spend your evenings. The hosts are very welcoming, we felt like at home and are grateful for everything they provided for us. Very recommended, we hope to come back!

We stayed at Despina's in Fres in February and March. From meeting us at the airport and helping us pick up our hire car she was always available if we needed advice. Driving into Fres you head for the village square and drive through it through an archway. Carry on this road for about 300m. Just beyond a small church on the left you will see it in front of you. There is a small undercover car parking space with the stairs to get to the flat. Despina's father lives in the flat below. He is very kind and despite not speaking English we managed to understand each other. We were also lucky to be given lemons, oranges,eggs and olive oil from his garden. The area is beautiful and rural with the sounds of goats and chickens to listen to whilst sipping wine on the balcony looking towards the sea. The area is a great base for exploring especially Vamos, Almyrida and the Apokoronas region. Chania and Rethymno are not too far either. I can't recommend Despina's place highly enough.

We had a great time in the little cottage, everything you needed was available. We particularly liked the outdoor shower, which we used every day. If you are looking for a place in nature, surrounded by wild landscape and birdsong, this is the place to be, we had a really great time here! 😌 Vassilis is a good host who responded to questions immediately:)

Clean, charming and rustic accommodations that are conveniently located close to Imbros Gorge and other local hikes. There were cooking supplies (pots, pans, utensils, coffee maker etc…) available for use. The views from the accommodations were beautiful with your own roof top views. The village was very quiet and peaceful. The hosts were very kind and accommodating. Highly recommend.
