Rental unit in Iraklio
4.88 out of 5 average rating, 101 reviewsCozy studio in central location of Heraklion
This is a perfect location for any one wishing to explore Heraklion and surrounding areas. It is very close to the main bus station (Lassithi) and a short walk from the marina (ferry connections), Koules Fortress and Venetian old town. Easy city bus connections to Heraklion beaches, Knossos and Archaeological Museum. Apartment was spotless, comfortable and had everything needed for an enjoyable stay. I appreciated the free bottled water in the fridge as well as a loaf of bread for toast/sandwiches.

We spent a week in George's apartment with a toddler and had a great time. We read about the sea view and ocean sounds in the reviews before, but our expectations were surpassed. Just wonderful! The beach bar in the building made the beach vacation perfect for us.

We had a great stay at the apartment, it was how it looked in the photos. Perfect for a couple and we stayed for 6 days. The little book of information about the flat amd local recommendations was excellent, the best I have had in an airbnb. Quiet location and spacious balcony. The host was very responsive, friendly and helpful.

Well-described self check-in, high standard of living. The only downside is the neighborhood without the convenience of packing a car.

The apartment is very nice and tidy, the host is responsive and gave us useful information for exploring the island. The parking spot is very useful since it is not so easy to find parking in the city.

Super nice bright and well decorated apartment. We felt at home. Lovely balcony overlooking the sea. Eva was there to greet us and explain about the apartment.

The stay was great. the apartment is really only a few minutes from the beach (on foot)! The place (Stalis) itself is very beautiful and has a lot to offer, as does the little kiosk right below the apartment. John is always very friendly and helpful. Thank you for everything!

5 out of 5 average rating, 39 reviewsNicos Apartments Agia Pelagia
We stayed at Nikolaos’s apartment for 5 days - 2 adults and 1 teenager. The apartment was very comfortable for the three of us - there is a balcony and roof top area which we used every day. The beach is 100m away and Nikolaos has a range of water sports gear you can use (fins, snorkels etc). There are many restaurants, shops and mini markets all within walking distance. Nikolaos and his wife are the perfect hosts. He booked a taxi for our late arrival from Heraklion airport and his wife drove us back for a small fee. They are super friendly and outgoing. The small village of Agia Pelagia is perfect for a beach getaway. We 100% recommend staying at Nikolaos’s!
Rental unit in Analipsi
4.89 out of 5 average rating, 53 reviewsLuxury apt Maria private pool and 600m from beach!
Maria & Stergos's place is amazing. Stergios provided very clear check in instructions. The welcome basket was a lovely surprise and the pool is amazing. The location is great as it feels very private but is only a very short walk to the shops, restaurants and beach. I would happily come back. The apartment is filled with everything you need for a stay. Highly recommend.

Rena was very responsive and sweet! She helped us check in personally. We had a short stay to walk to the port in the morning, which was very convenient! About a 15-20min walk. The apartment was big and had all the amenities listed. Only thing is the bed was sinking a little bit, but other than that it was perfect! Thanks so much Rena for your warmth and hospitality :)

It was a perfect place. Exactly as listed. My host was lovely, she kept in touch all week to check whether I needed anything and even brought me dinner down on my first night to welcome me. Also, the terrace was very quiet at night. definitely worth the price, I loved it.
Rental unit in Gournes
5 out of 5 average rating, 35 reviewsWide Sea Suites with heated jacuzzi
I had a great stay at Giorgo's. The property is brand new and spotless. The jacuzzi is great for relaxing in the evening. Giorgo's apartment is located next door to his restaurant, right in front of the sea, with access to a tiny beach which does the job, and a great spot for swimming. There is plenty of space to park a car. I would highly recommend!

Rental unit in Kato Asites
5 out of 5 average rating, 8 reviewsAsmani Apartment with Jacuzzi
I was very pleased that the host greeted me personally at the entrance to the town and showed me the apartment and explained everything in detail. The apartment is beautiful, very clean, had all the amenities (as in the photos), the kitchen is fully equipped, the bathroom is very beautiful and clean, the bedding is fresh and fragrant, as are the towels. Very comfortable beds and cozy bedrooms. And of course the hot tube where you can relax and unwind in the evening. Nearby there is a small shop and a pastry shop and taverns with very good food. I highly recommend this apartment and the hosts. An ideal place to visit both the north and the south of the island.
