Seaview studio, Chania old harbor
If you want to stay in the main pedestrian zone in Chania this is the air bnb for you. You are right next to the harbor. You can see everything from the private roof terrace. I can see this air bnb in the post cards that I bought. This means you are in the perfect spot. John was amazing. He was very personable and responded quickly. We loved that the main restaurants where just a walk downstairs away. John's recommendation of Tamam had one of the best things I ate in Greece. If you are there try the Politiki Tamam (Pie with veal, pork, & cheese). If we are every back in Chania we will book this air bnb again.

Pearl Seaside Cozy Apartments 5
Mike was great from the start…we booked last minute and he texted me immediately. He made everything very easy and was extremely friendly when we got there to check in. He showed us everything about the apartment that we needed to know and gave us lots of tips on where to go to eat and to see the best sites. The rooftop space was beautiful and the apartment was very close to everything in the area… We were able to walk to everything! I would definitely recommend staying there… Thank you, Mike!

Klea Apartment
Exactly as described! Manolis is a wonderful host and goes above and beyond to make you feel at home! He gave wonderful recommendations and was attentive whenever we had questions. On site parking was an amazing feature and an in unit washer really helped as this was a stop in the middle of a longer trip. The stay was exactly what we had hoped for and we were very comfortable. For reference, we were 4 adults (2 couples).

City Center Penthouse on the Beach
Katerina and George were the most amazing hosts. They were friendly and very helpful with recommendations for various restaurants and day trips. Their property was one of the best we’ve stayed in. The location was perfect and convenient to the beach and restaurants, but more importantly away from the hustle and bustle of the old town. The view from the deck was phenomenal in all directions. Our only regret is that we did not book this for an entire month. Maybe next year.

Artemis Seafront Apartments - 6
Wir hatten eine wundervolle Woche in dieser Unterkunft direkt am Meer! Die Wohnung ist sehr schön eingerichtet und der Blick vom Balkon aufs Meer ist ein Traum. Die Küche hatte eine Basic Ausstattung. Es gibt sogar einen Zimmerservice, der alle paar Tage die Handtücher austauscht, Müll entsorgt und sauber macht. Der Strandabschnitt ist recht ruhig und an den meisten Tagen waren wir fast allein dort. Man kann dort auch gut schnorcheln, wenn man mag. In der Nähe befinden sich zwei Tavernen, die uns beide sehr gefallen haben. Wir hatten einen Mietwagen und würden dies auch empfehlen. Der einzige Manko ist die Straße. Man hört sie aber nicht sehr stark unten am Meer und mit geschlossenem Fenster konnte man gut schlafen. Wir haben es beide nicht als wirklich störend wahrgenommen. Das schöne Grundstück und die Lage machen es definitiv wett. Wir würden immer wieder kommen!

7Olives suite no3. Arched balcony SEAview. Thyme
Appartement très sympathique et typique avec une magnifique vue sur mer (notamment pour le coucher de soleil). Le lit est grand et très confortable. La cuisine et la salle de bain manquent un peu de modernité et la proximité avec les autres appartements rendent le lieu un peu moins intime. Sinon, très beau logement.

Pachnes Luxury Apartments-Ni, Sea View Heated Pool
The apartment is fantastic - very modern, spacious, good kitchen and bathroom. The pool is a great bonus too. It is a short drive to the city center (10 minutes) - a rental car is required (easy parking around the the apartment too)

Amoutsa Seaside Villa, 10 steps from the sea.
פאני היא אישה מקסימה והבית היה נוח ומפנק רגע מים נפלא. היו משחקים מוכנים לילדים וכל דבר שצריך לבישול. היי נו שתי משפחות ארבעה מבוגרים שלושה ילדים ושתי תינוקות והיה לנו הכי נוח. פאני דאגה להכל והעיירה הייתה נוחה עם מסעדות טובות וחנות יין קטנה עם הענבים מקומיים. מאוד מאוד ממליצה 🩷

Great stay. Only hiccup was no washing machine.

Casa Marathi Blue Sky
We had the most fantastic family holiday here and can’t thank Giannis enough for being the perfect host! Her place is exactly as described and we will definitely be back! Thank you again for having us!

NEW VILLA EOS beach front
This house was absolutely amazing – just like in the pictures, if not even better! The location right by the beach is truly breathtaking, and we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful setting. All the furniture and appliances are top-of-the-line – everything was spotless, high-quality, and incredibly comfortable. Ria was a fantastic host – super friendly, always quick to respond, and very helpful. We really appreciated how kind and welcoming she was. We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay and would recommend this house to absolutely everyone. A perfect getaway!

Sea Star-seafront
Cette maison de pêcheurs est un endroit de rêve d’un calme absolu, bercé par le bruit des vagues comme si nous étions sur un bateau. L’endroit est parfait pour se reposer. Les terrasses disposées différemment sont un vrai bonheur. Notre hôte était d’une gentillesse incroyable et prévenant. Nous avons été accueillis avec des des fruits, des figues confites du cake et des biscuits, fait maison, excellent et sa maman nous avait confectionné un plat typique grec, délicieux. Nous avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour ,nous reviendrons sans hésiter car c’est vraiment le plus bel endroit où l’on a passé des vacances pourtant nous avons beaucoup voyagé.

Villa Recluso- heated pool,hydromassage,bbq,view
I truly recommend staying with Niko in this beautiful villa! The house is very modern, the outside area spectacular and private and the communication with Niko was clear and helpful. The accommodation works for both families and friends. The house is located around 30mins from Chania which is easy to get to by car. Can only recommend renting this villa.

Blue Sea Apartment
Chrisi ist eine hervorragende Gastgeberin! Sie war jederzeit hilfsbereit und immer gut gelaunt und freundlich . Die Wohnung ist perfekt für Ausflüge , aber auch perfekt zum Strand um die Ecke. Dazu ist alles vorhanden , was man zum Leben braucht und es gibt sogar eine kleine Flasche Raki im Kühlschrank zur Begrüßung. Wir werden wieder mal hierher kommen!! Brigitte und Peter

Venetian Harbour Gem
The views from this place are beyond breathtaking, especially at sunset! This is an area that is just walking distance from the touristy spot and is very peaceful. My bf was worried about smell and sound being above a restaurant, but there were zero issues. It’s practically sound proof. We sat on the balcony multiple times a day to people watch and listen to the beautiful street performers. We must have missed it in the listing, but please note that this is a home someone lives in. So you don’t have as much storage as you would in an Airbnb dedicated to guests only. We had one closet, two drawers, and could store suitcases under the bed. Not much storage or counter space for our things, but the host did say we could use anything in the house which was nice for cooking our own meals. Highly recommend the brunch and coffee at the Sandbar! Would definitely recommend this spot, especially for couples. The bed is a thick memory foam mattress and was very cozy & comfortable. We slept great!

EYGE transformed modern apartment by the sea-new!
The apartment, its location, and the hosts’ hospitality are simply impressive. The room had everything we needed - even sun hats, beach towels, and slippers. A separate crib was provided for our son. The apartment also came with a juicer, toaster, coffee machine, coffee, tea, and plenty of food. However, the place is better suited for couples without small children. Our 1-year-4-month-old son constantly wanted to go up and down the stairs (which isn’t very safe) or out onto the balcony. Still, he managed to enjoy the beautiful views and woke up saying ‘wooow.’ 😁 The water at the beach is perfect for small children and peaceful relaxation. We had a wonderful vacation! Nearby, we discovered a lovely restaurant called Halepa with incredible sunsets and delicious seafood - highly recommended.

Beachside Apartment in Plakias centre!
Wir waren als Familie mit 2 kleinen Kindern für 1 Woche in der Unterkunft. Wir konnten 2 Babybetten und einen Hochstuhl haben, was eine grosse Erleichterung war. Alles war wie beschrieben und sehr sauber. Meer und Strand und Restaurants etc. sind direkt um die Ecke. Von der Terrasse hat man einen schönen Blick auf die Berge hinter denen die Sonne untergeht und um die Ecke sieht man aufs Meer. Grosser Parkplatz vor der Tür. Nach 3 Tagen wurde die Wohnung geputzt, Abfall entsorgt, Bettwäsche und Handtücher gewechselt, wunderbar! Es gibt eine lange Treppe um in die Wohnung zu kommen, ohne Lift, für uns war es aber kein Problem.

Amazing penthouse, 1 bdr, Sea view, Sea front
Christina was lovely, meeting us at check in and check out and her apartment and it's location are superb. Also the apartment had everything you need, and Christina also provided some fresh food at check in. Thank you so much.

ΟCEAN BLUE Apartment in Chania
We had a wonderful stay, VERY CLEAN and QUITE place, well stocked condo, great host, sun set off the patio baloney was wonderful. Kyriakos was wonderful to work with and very responsive. The place is much nicer than the pictures on the website. I highly recommended this place. It has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathroom, much bigger than we needed but it was nice to spread out... Thank you Kyriakos for being such a wonderful host. PS. This is parking at the place.
