House vacation rentals in Daratsos

We really enjoyed our stay. The accommodation is very lovingly furnished, clean and has a fantastic location right on the beach. The surrounding area is perfect for sightseeing (close to Chania, Aptera) and hiking. The hosts were very easy to reach and very friendly - there were even some Greek delicacies to welcome us. We would love to come back and can highly recommend this place! Thank you very much!

Our family had an amazing time here! It was a great central location for excursions, and had several restaurants within walking distance as well as some flat roads for jogging. The house was perfect for our needs with a great layout. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub, as well as the clean modern furnishings. Minoas’s communication was excellent! A wonderful host who provided kitchen basics for the start of our stay and a lovely gift at the end. We would love to stay here if we return to Crete.

Vor allem Ourania - Dafnis mutter und Malfada (Dafnis Hund unter der Obhut von Ourania) haben uns wirklich zu Hause fühlen lassen. Sie zeigte uns was kretische Gastfreundschaft ist inklusive lokalem Essen. Am Abend nach hause zu kommen und manchmal unter tags da zu bleiben war immer eine Freude - sowohl unter dem wunderbaren Maulberbaum im Innenhof als auch im schönen Haus. Ausflugsziele gab es genug - schöne Strände und gutes Essen auch. Danke für den schönen Aufenthalt!

10 out of 10! This villa was absolutely perfect for our week in Chania! Clean and spacious, plus a very nice pool that’s kept at the perfect temperature for swims at any time of the day. Lia was so lovely and made us feel right at home. We will definitely be staying here when we return.

We were a party of five, my wife and I and 3 30 year olds, our two twins and a son-in-law. We all couldn't say enough good things about this home: the view has to be one of the best on the whole island, relaxing, extremely private and immediately felt right at home. Starting and ending each day with that view, I didn't need anything else, but there is as much to do as you want. For example, just 6 minutes down the hill, you have the great little town of Platka with a few delicious local restaurants, market and a nice sports bar if you want a cocktail...like me. Another 10 minutes down the hill you come to Alymrida, the small coastal city that has nearly a dozen varied restaurants right on the water. 40 minutes away is the charming city of Chania, the jewel of Crete. This home is centrally located, 20+ minutes from the highway to go anywhere you wish to go...but keep in mind your leaving this view behind. I hope you enjoy it half as much as we did.

Mogę się zgodzić z każdą wcześniejszą recenzją. Bardzo wygodny dom w spokojnej okolicy z pięknym widokiem na zatokę. Bardzo czysto, świetny basen. Wszystko zgodnie z opisem. Dobre wskazówki dojazdu i zameldowania. Mieliśmy idealny pobyt. Szczerze polecam!

Wonderful House in beautiful surroundings, big garden, great pool, great views. We really felt at home, every kitchen tool an all necessities were there, shelves full of books in english, german an norwegian language. Eivind is a very nice host who answered promptly to all questions and provided valuable recommendations for nearby restaurants and beaches. We had a wonderful time on Crete!

Nice private location as well as within driving distance to local towns (kalyves 5 mins, almyrida 10 mins, Chania old town 25 mins) definitely recommend hiring a car. Located about 30 minutes from the airport but very easy to find! Pool bigger than expected not too deep, the villa was spotless, AC was brilliant, had everything you needed. Uncle was lovely and very helpful if we needed anything! Had lovely visits from the little blind cat

Wir liebten jeden Tag hier! Sehr hochwertige Ausstattung, geschmackvolle und gemütliche Einrichtung, Küche ist bestens ausgestattet (alles was es zum Kochen braucht und ausreichend um eine Spülmaschiene zu füllen), sehr saubere und frische Handtücher und Bettwäsche, traumhafter Blick (ganze 5 Terrassen!) bei herrlicher Ruhe, und ein ausserordentlich herzliches Willkommenspaket (Wein, Milch, frisches Obst, Gemüse, Honig...). Sehr besonders!

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour chez Katerina, qui était là pour nous accueillir. Elle avait même préparé une salade grecque avec des légumes bio, ainsi qu’une bouteille de vin de son mari. Le logement est propre, bien situé pour aller à La Canée, il est spacieux et le jacuzzi est un vrai plus. Un grand merci à Katerina et Denis pour leur amabilité, nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir !

Amazing view, fully equipped apartment, clean and quiet. We call fully recommend this apartment for our family, friends and other customers!

Notre séjour en famille a été encore plus agréable qu'espéré. Nous nous sommes très vite sentis comme chez nous. La maison (Polymnia) est exactement comme décrite et illustrée par les photos. La vue et l'environnement sont incroyables, alors que la piscine a enchanté les enfants. La maison est parfaitement entretenue et propre. Les lits sont confortables et les climatisations dans les chambres sont très efficaces. L'équipement global est complet. La cuisine comporte tous le matériel nécessaire pour cuisiner, avec également les condiments de base. Chrysi est une hôte extrêmement disponible agréable dans le contact. Très réactive, elle a toujours répondu à nos demandes, aussi petites soient-elles. Elle aime sa région et n'hésite pas à partager sa connaissance par la biais de précieux conseils. Nous recommandons sans retenue cet endroit tout simplement magique.

This is a great place to stay in if you are looking for a lovely villa and pool in a very quiet and private location. The main sound is the goat bells ringing across the hills, yes really! Although it’s in the countryside there is easy access to the coast and the nearest village Vamos. Recommend trying the restaurants in Vamos. The hosts Judy and Mike are fantastic and are there to help if needed but otherwise give you space to enjoy this lovely place. Thanks very much Judy and Mike!!

Hôtes accueillants et réactifs. Logement confortable, agréable et fonctionnel. Situé au calme de la ville, tout en restant à moins de 10 min du centre ville. Je recommande vivement...

If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! This villa in the picturesque village of Koukounara is a dream come true. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted with stunning views of the mountains and sea that make you feel like you’ve stepped into paradise. The villa is even better and bigger than the photos—an architectural masterpiece blending luxury, comfort, and thoughtful design. Every detail is state-of-the-art, from modern appliances to plush furnishings. It’s spacious and perfect for unwinding, whether you’re inside or enjoying the beautiful outdoor areas. Every moment feels like pure luxury.Manolis was exceptional, providing amazing recommendations for local activities, restaurants, and hidden gems.His guidance helped us discover incredible places and experiences we’ll never forget.This villa is perfect for anyone seeking luxury, breathtaking views, and local culture. We’re already counting down the days until we return with our whole family next summer!

Alexandra’s place finished off our holiday perfectly. It was better than the photos, with everything you needed. Cristina was great, very friendly and helpful, happy to welcome her to Australia if she comes for a holiday. There are quite a few restaurants around and it is only a short drive into Chania Old town (depending on traffic). The location was great as you could book tours or hire a boat. From this location we went to Balos, winery, olive oil tour and got to know the area. Would definitely stay again or recommend friends to stay. Thanks for making Crete so memorable.

Wir haben uns in dem steinernen, kleinen Sommerhaus sehr wohl gefühlt. Der von einem alten Weinstock überdachte Innenhof hat uns begeistert. Abends konnte man ihn gemütlich und schön beleuchteten. Gefreut hat uns, dass in der Küche alle notwendigen Gewürze vorhanden waren und zur Begrüßung eine Flasche Rotwein auf dem Tisch stand. Die Lage in einer ruhigen Seitenstraße aber dennoch nur 2 Minuten zu Fuß vom Strand und vom alten Dorfkern Kolumbarys ist ideal. Die Übergabe und die Kommunikation mit Dimitrios war sehr nett und unkompliziert. Wir empfehlen die Unterkunft gerne weiter! We felt very comfortable in the small stone summer house. The courtyard covered by an old vine was very charming. In the evening, it was cozy and beautifully lit. We were pleased that all the necessary spices were available in the kitchen and a bottle of red wine was on the table to welcome us. The location in a quiet side street but still only a 2 minutes walk from the beach and the old village center of Kol

Stayed here for a week late Sept. Was fantastic. the best AB&A I think so far. Big place, very secure, easy walk to beach and to old town (once you get your bairings there are little short cuts-it just took us a while. Great bathroom- seperate loo downstairs too. big bed in main room . Fully equiped kitchen- although we mostly ate out- loads restaurants in beach area and town. We thought prices were good eating out. would defo come back again. location and actual place was great. We spent days on beach and nights in the old town. Apartment was lovely and quiet at night and very secure. Little outside space- great for cooling off. Little supermarket round corner- ok but would suggest going bigger super market (by Zara) to get supplies.about a 10 min walk once you get your bairings. Harbour a must in eve just to sit and have a drink- is beautiful- maybe eat in the little streets behind.

We had an amazing stay in this beautiful villa. No car needed as within walking distance of local tavernas, small shop and beach. Bus stop just a minutes walk away with regular service in Chania and buzzing village of Platanias. We didn't have children with us but villa was child friendly with option to gate off pool and stairgate. The villa itself was spotless. Pool was cleaned regularly and was spacious. Had several sitting areas in outside space. Although we didn't do any cooking the kitchen was well equipped with everything you could need. The bedrooms were clean and spacious. The shower was amazing, powerful with no issues with hot water. A lovely touch was having some supplies waiting for us on arrival such as juice, fruit, spread. Sophia was easy to contact and responsive. We would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone. Thank you so much Sophia!

From the moment we booked to the moment we left we had an excellent experience. Giorgos is very responsive. We arrived to find the apartment was exactly as the photographs. The added bonus we found is that there is air conditioning in both of the bigger rooms, the washing machine is a bonus with plenty of space to dry clothes. The pool area is amazing with plenty of room in the pool to play volleyball and space to sunbathe or sit under some shade. We loved it as much in the daytime as in the evenings. The location is so peaceful with local beaches in easy walking distance. The sea is clear but water shoes help. Excellent masseuse nearby. We walked 15 mins to Gramvousa restaurant and others nearby. We enjoyed Breeze in Kissamos. We went to Balos via car (road can be seen from the balcony) and it was amazing though the walk back up was tough in heat. We loved Elafonisi beach and enjoyed the sunset there. We also enjoyed what Chania had to offer. We would recommend this place 100% to all

Meine 4 besten Freundinnen und ich haben eine Woche in dem Häuschen von Tom verbracht und wir waren von vorne bis hinten begeistert! Die Aussicht von der wunderschönen Terrasse war traumhaft und wir haben es geliebt, hier zu frühstücken, Abend zu essen, an dem Grill zu grillen oder einfach nur zusammen zu sitzen und Spiele zu spielen. Das Haus selbst war ebenfalls richtig hübsch und sehr ordentlich. Alles, was wir brauchten, war vorhanden. Die Räume sind in wirklich viel geräumiger, als sie auf den Fotos scheinen, was uns sehr positiv überrascht hat. Die Küche war mit den wichtigsten Utensilien ausgestattet. Die Dusche hatte immer warmes Wasser und der Duschkopf einen guten Wasserdruck. Bettwäsche und Handtücher waren sauber. Jedes Zimmer ist meiner AC ausgestattet. Ab und zu wurden wir von einem zucker-süßen Dackel besucht. Tom ist sehr nett und offen für Empfehlungen! Wir können die Unterkunft von Tom mehr als empfehlen und würden uns freuen, irgendwann wiederzukommen. :)

We loved our stay so much :) It was super peaceful. We enjoyed the outdoor area a lot. It is super convenient to have groceries and restaurants nearby. Minas was lovely (as well as all the people we met in Kissamos) 😁 A friends trip that we will never forget!

We had a fantastic stay at Seaside Villa Lavrys. The villa itself is spacious, well-maintained, and located in a peaceful area with a lovely view. It’s a perfect spot for a relaxing getaway, but do keep in mind that you’ll need a car to get around as the location is a bit remote. Taxi transportation from Chania costs around €30. What truly made our experience special was our host, Alex. From the moment we booked, Alex was incredibly responsive and attentive, always available to answer any questions we had. He went out of his way to ensure we were comfortable throughout our stay, offering great local tips and assistance whenever needed. His kindness and willingness to help made a huge difference in our trip. Alex’s family was also very warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. We would highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a peaceful, family-friendly stay in Crete, and Alex’s hospitality made it even better.

Thank you Niko for accomodating us in your beautiful home. It was a pleasant stay and we look forward to coming back and staying with you. Place was wonderful and peaceful and out the way. Great view and great atmosphere.
