Villa vacation rentals in Almyrida

A Slice of Paradise – Five Stars All Around! We had the most incredible time staying at this large and stunning villa in the Loutraki/Chania area. The property is nothing short of breathtaking, with lush, beautifully maintained gardens and crystal-clear water right at your doorstep. The direct beach access was a dream—so easy and convenient—and we spent countless hours floating in the calm sea and enjoying the serene, quiet atmosphere. The views from every direction were spectacular, making it hard to leave the villa! The villa itself is exquisite, with a spacious, well-designed area for cooking and relaxing. It’s the perfect blend of luxury and comfort. Demetrios, our host, went above and beyond, offering incredible hospitality and even surprising me with a birthday cake, which made our stay all the more special. If you’re looking for a tranquil, beautiful retreat this is the place!

Villa Penelope is a beautiful place where you can spend a great time in a large group. Especially the outdoor area with a large pool is outstanding, the view over the sea is unique. Giorgos was always available within a very short time. We were even able to get to the villa earlier upon request. You need a car for activities or grocery-shopping. Thanks for everything, we would definitely come back!

Wonderful Stay. House is pristine- clean, comfortable and well equipped. Host is also warm and welcoming. Great views of the port and the sea and only a short drive to Chania. Driving instructions provided by host were clear and the place was easy to find. Don't hesitate to book and enjoy!

Breathtaking view! The house is brand new, it corresponds exactly to the pictures shown. The pool is very large & during the day there is a perfect mix of sunny and shady spots. There are many small taverns nearby, you never had to drive far. Very clear recommendation for this villa, it is perfect & we would love to come back anytime!

Loved it! We'll definitely be back.

Wbu is a fantastic host and the villa is simply stunning. Wish we had more time there. Highly recommend!

Everything was fine. The house is very big, with a nice modern design and cosy at the same time. The communication with both Giorgios and the owner was fantastic. We felt very comfortable, no neighbours and quiet. The house is about 5-10 minutes from Rethymno. The pool and garden are large and very usable.

Good bits. The villa was outstanding, as described & the photo's don't lie! Pool is amazing as are the views. The villa & grounds spotlessly clean & spacious. Plenty of outdoor furniture. Nikos provided a lovely welcome pack, inc Oat milk as requested. He also gave us some good recommendations for ordering in (efoods app was great & better than trying to use the oven & utensils). The beds were very comfortable. We had a problem with the jacuzzi, but Nikos's father was there to sort it out within the hour! Can't fault the service or friendliness. We were a family party of 10 with an age range of 17 to 61. Not so good bits. Not enough plug sockets in the bedrooms & no window covering on the upstairs master bathroom. The cats! They drive you mad, they meow constantly & try to get indoors, you can't leave the doors open (problem when half the party love them & feed them!!! but the other half don't like cats). Taxi's expensive. Overall, would thoroughly recommend & return.

I can’t say enough about how wonderful this villa truly is. We were a family of 10 people and the place was perfect to accommodate us. The place is super clean, has all amenities you could possibly need, and has a fantastic view . The location was ideal, it is a 5 mins drive to a few different beaches, there are fantastic restaurants close by and a 15 min drive to get into Chania. What makes this place even better however are the wonderful hosts. They are always responsive with any needs, questions or requests you may have. They are also knowledgeable of the surroundings which is extremely helpful. I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this place, I would recommend to family and friends. Thank you

This was our second visit to Daphnis Villas as we enjoyed 2 years ago. Maria is an extra sweet and very accommodating host. She took care of us anytime that we needed anything. She responded very quickly and made it feel like home to us. I would not recommend staying anywhere else.

We enjoyed the stay very much and everything was wonderful! The pool was clean and nice and cool! Requests were responded to immediately and you are only 20 minutes away from the most amazing beaches! Since the accommodation is remote but close to a busy road, you should take Oropax with you if you want to sleep without air conditioning ( which all work perfectly) and may be sensitive to noise. All in all it was a wonderful house with everything you need! Many thanks for everything :)

Our stay was incredible! Nikos and his team worked tirelessly to make sure we had a great stay. They organized our transportation and even delivered rental cars to the house for us. I would highly recommend staying here!

The name says it all. It was, in fact, a gem. A total gem. Gorgeous house, gorgeous pool, rooms were all great, great views, I can go on and on. Rafael was the man. The bomb. The guru. Let him recommend what to do and where to go and do what he says. His food recommendations, destination recommendations, l insights, helpfulness - all were spot on. We had a couple small pre-season kinks that needed to be ironed out but they did them instantaneously. One phone call and voila. Theo was so helpful in the lead-up as well. He helped organize things and even helped order legs of lamb for us to cook on Easter. He was great. So the place is 15 minutes from old town Rethymno and I wouldn’t want it any other way. I am writing this from old town where I am spending the next 2 days and I already miss being at that house. It was perfectly situated. Close enough to the hustle, but far enough away to decompress. It’s absolutely perfect. Thank you all for such a magnificent wedding week!

Amazing stay! Views from the mountainside are incredible to wake up to every morning including sunrise and sunset. The view from the infinity pool was fantastic and had toys for children. The host Mr. George was always accommodating and even brought us eggs one morning :) would highly recommend

The owners were great always on hand and responded very quickly - they arranged car hire and food delivery for our arrival. Would highly recommend this property especially if you like it private - it’s a great location to travel around due to close proximity to main roads to explore along the coast or go down to the south of the island. Would recommend you hire a vehicle, there is a Lidl 5 mins away and the main town is just around 10 mins. This would be ideal for family with older children as there is a great pool and plenty of activities ie pool table / table tennis table. The property was extremely clean with plenty of towels and lovely basket with some fruit / wine on arrival - great hosts and property….

Lovely time at the villa over Easter week. Our group of nine thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The pool was amazing. We couldn’t have asked for a better host. She was so responsive and helpful. She even helped us order dinner to be delivered one night at the last minute! Highly recommend this villa!

Wonderful villa in great location for family Holliday. Facilities were great and as described. The garden is beautiful and adds to the feeling of the outside space. Good shade and sun spots in the garden at all times of day. We had a lovely time exploring the local area as well as going further afield to explore Create to the full. Lots of lovely walks possible from the villa and the local beaches perfect for low key family beach safe for kids. The bedrooms were all lovely especially the master beadroom with beautiful balcony. Host was fantastic at communication and helped us with any questions we had responding promptly and efficiently to any difficulties. Would highly recommend.

The villa is a most beautiful place for a relaxed family vacation. Quiet, spacious and with all the amenities for a relaxed stay. The next town is nearby, only a few minutes away by car. The local support is excellent, very friendly, very responsive and alert. All in all, a very recommendable place.

This is the best air BnB we have stayed in. The photos do not do it justice. It is so spacious, with large bedrooms and a large living area. Plenty of storage space and a HUGE outdoor space with a massive pool. It was a stunning air BnB. Lots of amenities and extra kitchen gadgets. It has a great BBQ and outdoor eating space. The pool was a highlight and was warm despite it not being heated. Showers had lots of power, beds were comfy. Location is stunning, very peaceful and serene. Not loud at all. We didn’t mind the planes going over head, they are very infrequent. The house was so clean and clearly well looked after. You would need a car to get around Crete if staying here but a lovely tavern and local beach 10-15 min walk down the road. Stavros beach about a 5 min drive. I would absolutely stay here again, it was perfect!! Christian and Judith were amazing hosts, very responsive and gave clear instructions!

The villa was beautiful and the outside space was stunning. Very spacious, peaceful and private. We needed a car as most of the walkable amenities were closed due to the season having not really kicked off yet.

Lovely place to stay, we loved it!!! Anastasia was quick to respond and very friendly. I would stay here again on my next visit. make sure you eat at the tavern at the end of the street if staying, great food and drinks!

This house was unbelievable! The location was gorgeous and perfect. It felt private but also accessible and we LOVED the little town. The amenities and entire home were a dream and made our vacation perfect. The only thing better was STAVROS the host! He was AMAZING! Left us treats, helped us multiple times with recommendations, and even brought us freshly pressed oil! We definitely hope to be back!

We stayed as a family of four for a week. The villa consisted a main floor with a modern, clean and well equipped kitchen, a comfortable sitting/dining room with lovely views over souda bay and towards chania. A large jacuzzi bath was also off the sitting area. The rest of this floor was three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one with a shower/ tub combo and the other a wetroom style. A further bedroom/ shower room was on the floor below via an outside staircase as well as a well equiped gym. The outside area was expansive and enough for our boys to run around. The villa also had a number of indoor and outdoor games for the boys to enjoy. But a lot of our time was spent in the heated pool! Overall, we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The villa was very clean, comfortable with stunning hilltop views. The location was close to the airport, local resturants and shops and we had food delivered to us a number of times. A special point was the kindness and helpfulness of our hosts, thank you!

Alex was an amazing host right from booking. He’s super friendly & reply’s quickly to any questions. We had the warmest welcome on check in & the property is beautiful, with gorgeous & peaceful surroundings. You have all the utensils & cutlery you need for cooking, Alex was always on hand if we needed any help with anything. I will 100% be going back & it’s not something I often do so that says a lot about Alex & his property. Highly highly recommend this place.
