Apartment vacation rentals in Archanes

Wonderful, kind and knowledgeable host. It was such a pleasure meeting Mihalis. His home is beautiful, it is really spacious, has secure underground parking. You can ride the elevator from garage up to where the front door is. That was the coolest. The home has the most amazing view. Pictures are accurate but they don't do it justice. The view is unbelievable. Comfortable couch and beds, very clean, stocked with amenities, you'll want for nothing. Mihalis was even generous enough to stock us with water and very good oranges. Several Restaurant choices in both directions and great clothing shops just 200 ft up the road. It's going to be tough to beat this BnB compared to future others. We were so sad to leave. Can't recommend it highly enough. Like us, you'll have no regrets.

This place was great! I loved staying here. Very very clean and well decorated. The bed was very comfortable and we were also given two bath robes which were a very nice addition. We loved this place and would definitely recommend. The surrounding area was quite bland with wrecked buildings around but there is a very nice and quiet beach 2 minutes walking distance away. Location is also very close to the airport and the port (about 15 min drive). I suggest renting a car as crete is a very large island and at least in my experience the public transportation proved unreliable.

Total schöne und saubere Unterkunft, super ruhige Lage. Highlight ist der private Pool.😊 Nettes Personal. Ein Muss ist ein Auto, welches man dort auch mit anmieten kann. Immer wieder gerne .

Το studio είναι ακριβώς όπως φαίνεται στις φωτογραφίες. Είναι εξαιρετικά καθαρό και σε πολύ καλή τοποθεσία. οι οικοδεσπότες απαντούν σε όλα τα μυνήματα και γρήγορα. θα το επέλεγα ξανά.

Lovely little apartment right on the beachfront with direct access to the beach. Great facilities and quiet area with easy walking distance to shops, tavernas and bakery. Very helpful hosts and parking very close by for the hire car. Hot water availability seemed a bit hit and miss but in Crete temperatures this was not really a problem. Everything you need is there and waking up to the stunning beach view every morning was a joy.

Great place to stay when visiting Heraklion. Historic and in the center. The chiming church bells are enchanting, however every hour, so this is something to consider if you are a light sleeper. For us, it was no problem, we actually enjoyed it. Communication with the hosts was seamless. Big thanks!

Wir haben uns bei Anna und Hans sehr wohl gefühlt. Die beiden sind wirklich sehr freundlich. Wir wurden herzlich empfangen und mit Raki und Annas Selbstgebackenem begrüßt. Da beide deutsch sprechen, konnten wir auch den einen oder anderen Plausch halten. Wir bekamen Tipps für Unternehmungen in der Umgebung. Die Wohnung ist ruhig gelegen und hat alles was man braucht. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet, auch mit Gewürzen. Es war immer ein Erlebnis, die wunderschönen Sonnenuntergänge auf dem Balkon zu genießen. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Und hat der Aufenthalt bei Maria sehr gefallen. Die Wohnung ist sehr zentral, sauber und super ausgestattet. Da wir über das Wochenende da waren (und die Wohnung sehr nah an den Restaurants und Bars liegt), sowie die Kirche morgens läutet, war es nachts relativ laut. Dieses war uns aber auf Grund der vorherigen Bewertungen bewusst und wir hatten gute Ohrstöpsel dabei :)

Fanis was so communicative and helpful! Always answered writhing 10 minutes and had amazing recommendations! Loved it, would def come again!

Wir hatten einen super schönen Aufenthalt. Die Lage der Wohnung könnte nicht besser sein, es war sauber und der Gastgeber war jederzeit erreichbar und super hilfsbereit. Wir haben uns sehr gut aufgehoben gefühlt und würden die Unterkunft auf jedenfall empfehlen! Übrigens kann man vom Balkon und sogar vom Bett aus den Sonnenaufgang perfekt sehen 🥰

lieu très calme et hôte très sympathique, je recommande vivement ce logement.

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful apartment – it was our second time here, and once again, everything was perfect. The apartment is exactly as shown in the pictures: beautifully decorated, very clean, and super comfortable. It’s located in a quiet area and has a private back terrace that is wonderfully sunny and peaceful – we loved spending time there. We slept very well, the kitchen is well equipped, and we had everything we needed for a relaxed stay. The beach is only about an 8-minute walk away, and the next supermarket is less than 5 minutes on foot – super convenient. We also enjoyed using the lovely barbecue area outside – it’s a great space to relax and eat. The host was amazing: always available and very helpful whenever we had a question. We can fully recommend staying here and would definitely come back again. Thank you for everything!

we really enjoyed our stay here! the place was absolutely perfect, it had everything we needed and was so close to the main centre of Heraklion

this was an unexpected Oasis -- it is a family-owned compound, though family members were nearly invisible, offering help but allowing LOTS of privacy. There is a constant breeze in this remote place, and we were happy NOT to have a car so that we understood the property and the 25 minute walk that separates it from the busyness of Heraklion. we sometimes walked down the hill for dinner or to take the bus to town, but ultimately cooking and eating on the patio (and enjoying the pool after the trek home) were treasured activities after the crowds of Athens and even the Heraklion cruise people. Wish we had stayed longer-- few places we have planned in Crete offer this private and comfortable outdoor space. This family is special. 💕

Wonderful stay in a beautiful and comfortable apartment! The host (Vasilis) was really kind, always replying fast and help in everything we need. He also gave us many suggestions when we’ve asked for. The house is even better than the pictures and pretty private as well. The private parking lot was a benefit too. We will definitely come back ! Thank you for your outstanding hospitality!

Loved this place! The view is fantastic and it’s very comfortable to lounge outside on the terrace, though it can get windy. The apartment was clean and the host hospitable and accommodating. Would happily stay again!

The place was conveniently located in walking distance from the port of entry for the ferries and about 5 to 10 minutes away from the airport. It was close to great restaurants and the waterfront and the main shopping areas are all within 5 to 10 minutes walk. It was easy for tours to pick us up 2 to 3 minutes walk from the place. Are a host or extremely helpful very responsive on all communications all through the process in the checkout. We would definitely consider staying here again when visiting Crete.

We had a really great time in Lygaria! The Arrival was easy and we met Nikos and his wife, they were very friendly and helpful! Nikos always replied very quick and also gave some recommendations for restaurants and taverns (we really liked Sirocco and Anatoli!) The appartment was clean, felt modern and cozy. The outside section next to it was really nice to hang out at in the evenings and the whirlpool was a big bonus, we loved it! We also had deck chairs for our use at the front of the building - from which you are able to get to the beach in just a few footsteps! All in all we were really happy to have booked this airbnb and would recommend it to everyone!

Apesar de termos marcado para 3 pessoas e apenas estar preparado para 2, o anfitrião foi muito rápido e prestável a resolver o problema! Quarto e condições muito boas :)

My boyfriend and I spent five nights here for my 22nd birthday and it did not disappoint. The photos on here do not do the place justice and the local area is just the right amount of quiet busy also with an abundance of restaurants and bars. We didn’t get a hire car as we managed with the local buses as they are so much cheaper and we were able to get to beaches such as Saridari and Paralia Psaromoura, which we would recommend. We also would highly recommend a boat tour to Dia island if you are able too. Restaurant wise in Gournes we cannot recommend Nami Restaurant enough and it is a must! The beach opposite is a lovely shallow beach but we aware it can be quite windy hence why we explored other beaches - would advise if u go to these beaches you leave early (especially if u want a sun lounger)! Already missing this place and Giorgo of course. All the best, Millie and Nathan :))

We had an amazing stay. The location was perfect, with tons of walkable restaurants and bars nearby. There was so much going on in the area, and the lively atmosphere made it really fun to explore. One of our favorite parts was the hot tub on the balcony. It was the perfect place to relax at the end of the day. The homemade wine was a really nice touch and absolutely delicious. We’d definitely come back.

Logement au top!!! juste incroyable, tout absolument est parfait.. Un très grand Merci à Maria pour son dévouement !

Great place! Will definitely stay here again!

I booked this stay as a special trip for my mom and me, and it was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The space gave us such peace of mind, calm, cozy, and just what we needed to relax. One of the kindest touches was the host thoughtfully providing us with some groceries to welcome us, such a generous and appreciated gesture! The apartment was spotless, well-equipped, and had everything we needed. We especially enjoyed the bathroom: a lovely shower and a bathtub that can turn into a jacuzzi, perfect for unwinding (just be a little mindful when draining the water). The location is also ideal: just a pleasant 10-15 minute walk to the old town/city center, which made it easy to explore while still enjoying a quiet retreat. Truly a beautiful stay with a warm and welcoming host. Highly recommended, we’d love to come back! 💛
