Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Decentralized Administration of Crete

Really nice room in front of the sea.

What a wonderful stay! Fantastic location right next to the Chania Venetian Harbour, steps away from everything the city has to offer. The place was well appointed with all the necessary amenities. The beds and pillows were especially comfortable. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit!

Excellent welcome from Nikoleta and Alexis. The house is very nicely decorated with murals, paintings and drawings made by Alexis. The terrace sheltered under an arbor is very nice to eat out of the sun. The location of the accommodation is exceptional, a 3-minute walk from Knossos Palace. Which allowed us to do the tour at the end of the day from 5pm until the close at 8pm, in short on a time slot where there is almost no one left on this site who is crowded in the middle of the day. So this is a huge advantage to visit the Knossos Palace in good conditions of tranquility. So we highly recommend Alexis and Nikoleta's place.

A little piace of heaven! This is not just an incredibly beautiful villa with a gorgeous garden and pool. There comes so much more with this stunning location, from the peaceful surroundings to Irina's attention to detail and kindness. If you are looking for a place to relax, recharge and enjoy Crete far from tourist spots in complete privacy this is your place.

Heike's place was super well maintained and had everything your heart desires. We felt comfortable and enjoyed our time very much! Heike was also on site on the day of our arrival and personally gave us many helpful tips and explained everything necessary. She was also quickly available to us at any time. Utensils for grilling meat and fish were also fully available. The surrounding small towns with numerous localities are quickly and easily reached by car. If you are athletic, you can also do it on foot :) . But even at home you can unwind, either in a hammock or a lounger.

Wow! Where to begin with this review - this was probably the best Airbnb experience we have ever had overall, and we have stayed in a lot of airbnbs! Manos and Klelia made sure we had a fantastic experience in Chania , they are so friendly and very helpful with any questions we had, super responsive and they really went above and beyond; to the extent that when we arrived they gave us a home baked banana bread loaf and fresh home baked pastries from their shop!! As for the apartment, we stayed for one month and it was a home away from home. It is in a great location, 10 minute walk from a lovely beach and great restaurants. The apartment had everything we needed and even had a little home gym outside which we used daily, it has a sheltered parking spot and a little private patio. 100/10!! Thank you Manos and Klelia for an unforgettable trip.

If you're looking for a place where you can find peace and get inspired, this is definitely it. I love that this place is an authentic village where you can really experience the local Cretan life. The hosts were wonderful and very helpful. The house is so interesting with lots of old photos and history. Some of the best beaches are just a few minutes away. I wouldn't recommend Elafonisi, it's really windy and sooo many people. Kedrodasos beach was probably our favourite but be ready for a steep walk up on the way back.

Alexandros and Stavroula are incredibly kind and generous humans. The home they built feels so good to be in with the huge open space, tasteful design, and lighthearted decor. We’ve seen and stayed in a lot of places on Crete and this is by far one of the finer homes on the island. The kitchen is lovely to cook in, beds are very comfortable. The orchard is lovingly cared for and is especially beautiful in the winter / early spring with a blanket of green ground cover, flowers and herbs. The sheep grazing w/ bells nearby are a joy to see and hear. I think it’s the perfect place to enjoy privacy and feel of being away from it all while still being able to access Chania city center within 30 minutes. Stavros is mostly shut down in February so I can’t say much about it other than the beach a 5 min drive away called ‘Zorbas’ is one of our favorite places to swim in clear calm waters. The area of Kounoupidiana is less than 15 min away and has great restaurants. A perfect week! We’ll return!

We had an amazing time at this air bnb. It was our first time in Crete and we had the feeling the location was good for exploring the island. The airbnb was exactly how it is on the photos. It had everything we needed. The bed was ultra comfy. Best night sleep in a long time. Apostolis was a great host! He was very quick in answering questions and giving good Tipps for hikes and restaurants. We definitely recommend this place and would book again.

Perfect location! Walking distance to restaurants, shopping, beach and more. Very safe and quiet, yet steps away from everything that you might need.

We had a wonderful stay at Aggeliki’s place as a group of 6 women. The 3 bedroom villa we stayed in was spectacular with wonderful views and the shared pool area was beautiful. Our host helped us make arrangements for a private chef (which was unreal) and a boat trip, as well as all taxi’s / transfers. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay and we would recommend this place to everyone :)

We had the most amazing experience staying at this Airbnb! The house was absolutely stunning with breathtaking views that made every morning special. It was beautifully maintained and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. What truly set this place apart, though, were the incredible hosts. They went above and beyond to make sure our trip was perfect. From arranging convenient transportation from the airport in Heraklion to renting us their car—which was spotless and ideal for exploring Crete—everything was seamless and stress-free. Their warmth and hospitality made us feel right at home, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Crete. We can’t wait to come back!

Javi was very helpful, accommodating and helped us a lot. We had a huge delay and he helped us alot, waiter for hrs.. got us food for breakfast as we arrived late and also dinner as we arrived close to midnight. Nice lad and a super nice property beautiful for groups of families

Nice and clean place, very welcoming owner. Happy to stay with my familly.

Perfect stay, great value for money! We could access the facilities of the Aristea Hotel, which were a plus. I would recommend.

The listing is located in a very nice quiet place. With everything you need. The owners are very friendly and welcoming, very attentive. And always present if needed. I would highly recommend it.

Beautiful apartment, well equipped, close to Chania by car. Easy street parking which is very quiet. The apartment is very spacious, it can be suitable for 2 families. Our host's welcome is perfect. The stay around Chania is very pleasant. Recommended!

Amazing terrace, felt private and had nice views on the sea and mountains. Great communication with the host.

Villa Oliv was a lovely place for our family and we loved calling it home during our stay! The house is just as described and Claudia was so attentive and responsive. The pool was so nice and we thoroughly enjoyed the openness of the home.

We had an amazing 10-day stay at this beautiful house(3 adults and one teenage)! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed with delicious pastries and raki. The host also thoughtfully provided us with olive oil, coffee, water, and a bottle of wine, which was a lovely touch. The location was peaceful and ideal for a relaxing getaway. The house itself was spotlessly clean, spacious, and full of character, with all the amenities we needed to feel at home. The outdoor space was a real highlight, with the jacuzzi in the garden being a must for relaxing after a day at the beach or sightseeing. We also think a small BBQ in the garden would be a great addition for future guests! The host was incredibly responsive and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. We highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful and charming getaway!

We had a very nice stay at the Tiny Villa :) It was all very clean and well maintained, the communication was very pleasant and easy, when we had questions we didn't have to wait long for an answer. In addition, cats came by very often who were very loving and would certainly be happy if you fed them from time to time :)

Excellent. The Monastery is the perfect example of contemporary architecture and interior design. The proportions and visibility lines appear to be expertly planned and cleverly designed to guarantee peace, privacy and comfort from the heat of the day. Even more important though, is how friendly the staff were. We were made to feel welcome from the very moment we parked the car, and the staff could not have been more helpful. In particular, Meggie and Georgia went out of their way to help us. All of the staff were great though. The food was excellent, and the views spectacular. This part of Crete is incredibly beautiful and given the friendliness and style of The Monastery, we will certainly return.

The villa is beautifully located in a dead end on the mountain of the small village of Armenoi. Everything is well maintained, clean and atmospheric. All sanitary functions are very great in shape, the kitchen is great incl. Dishwasher equipped and the sleeping areas maintained. The grill worked impeccably and coal and lighter were ready. The communication with Elina has been great, very helpful and attentive. A car is indispensable if you want to go to the sea ( 8 min. Travel time to Kalyves ). I would come back anytime and therefore also recommend the best conscience.
