Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Ligaria

We enjoyed a fantastic four days in Aris’ place, the views of the plateau and mountains are just beautiful! We felt right at home, and it was lovely to have Aris and his wife physically there at check in, a rarity these days! The images really don’t do this place justice, it is up some winding roads but we were prepared for that having visited the plateau in 2012. We can’t recommend staying here more, we really wish we’d have booked a longer stay! Aris had a fantastic hire car recommendation too, which was also great, and we had some amazing recommendations from them too. Thank you very much Aris!

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt in der Villa Despina! Die Lage ist traumhaft ruhig, perfekt zum Entspannen, und gleichzeitig ein guter Ausgangspunkt, um den Süden Kretas zu erkunden. Die Villa selbst ist sehr sauber, liebevoll eingerichtet und bestens ausgestattet – von der Küche bis zum schönen Außenbereich mit Pool war alles top gepflegt. Besonders gefallen haben uns die herzliche Gastfreundschaft und die kleinen Aufmerksamkeiten bei unserer Ankunft. Wir haben uns sofort wohlgefühlt! Ein echtes Highlight: der traumhafte Blick auf die umliegende Natur und die Sonnenuntergänge am Abend. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder und können die Villa Despina jedem empfehlen, der Ruhe, Komfort und kretische Herzlichkeit sucht. Vielen Dank für alles!

השהות בבית של ג'ורג'יה היא הרבה מעבר למקום לישון בו. הבית יפיפה, מעוצב באהבה וכבוד למסורת המקומית והמשפחתית , כל פרט ורהיט נמצאים שם באהבה. מהריהוט המשופץ, ספרי האמנות, המטבח המקורי, ועד המיטות והמזרונים המפנקים. החצר הפנימית מאד נעימה ומטופחת. ג'ורג'יה מארחת נדיבה באנושיות הלבבית שלה, סיפקה לנו המלצות לסביבה, עזרה לנו בנדיבות רבה עם צ'ק אין מוקדם והיתה זמינה לכל שאלה או התיעצות. בית ואשה פשוט מעוררים השראה

Fantastic old traditional house, well preserved and carefully modernized. Kind hosts eager to assist and give recommendations of nice nearby places to visit. Amazing view of the valley.

We stayed as a family of six, four adults and two children (8 and 5). The set up was really comfortable and worked perfectly for us. The outdoor pool area is great and our two kids loved it - especially as there were lots of inflatables left to play with. We arrived at 3am. Xristos offered to meet us, but when we suggested with young children we'd prefer just to get in and get to bed, then meet up after it was no problem at all. We had instructions to call when we arrived, and the gate was opened for us. We were blown away by how well supplied the house was. Xristos was in touch in the week before to check if we needed anything in particular and couldn't have been more helpful in making sure we had everything we needed to start our holiday. Then we had a delivery of local fruit and wild artichokes as they were in season. Amazing. There was a dust storm before we arrived. Xristos promptly sorted this too. A great and relaxed place to stay, with an unbelievably good host. Thanks!

Wir können uns den vielen positiven Bewertungen nur anschließen. Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit in dem schönen Bergdorf – es war ein besonderes Erlebnis. Jeden Morgen haben wir auf der Dachterrasse gefrühstückt und die Ruhe genossen. Anfangs dachten wir, dass uns das Meer fehlen würde, aber das war überhaupt nicht der Fall. Wir sind richtig zur Ruhe gekommen – schon Spaziergänge in der Umgebung haben dafür gereicht. Eigentlich hatten wir vor, mehr zu unternehmen, aber wir haben die entspannte Atmosphäre so sehr genossen, dass wir es ruhig angehen ließen. Trotzdem waren wir mit dem Auto unterwegs und haben einige schöne Ausflüge gemacht, unter anderem an die Küste, wo wir tolle Restaurants entdeckt haben. Ein Urlaub, der uns in sehr guter Erinnerung bleiben wird. Danke Marie und ihre liebe Mutter für alles. Liebe Grüße Simone und Michael

My stay was so beautiful! I was travelling alone but at no point felt uneasy or unsafe. I felt very much at home. The place is immaculate and exactly how it looks in the photos. The views are breathtaking and it is a complete peaceful haven! Giorgos also arranged car rental for me, he made it super easy and the company he booked through were great ! I could not recommend this place enough, from the property down to the communication with Giorgos, everything was perfect!

Le logement était impeccable, propre et bien rangé. Pamela nous a accueillie pour notre court séjour à Heraklion. Nous y étions bien installés, à une quinzaine de minutes en voiture du centre de la ville et à 10min de l’aéroport ce qui a facilité l’organisation de notre fin de séjour.

We had an amazing 1 week stay at this beautiful place. Also the host was so sweet in helping us. She made sure we found the house during night time and got some food for us for breakfast. Also the place was very clean and the kitchen has everything you need. This place is just magical with the beautiful sunrise every morning. Also the inside of the house and spots outside the house give a very cozy feeling. We would also definitly recommend to hire the chef-kok for a night. It was one of the highlights of our stay because of the amazing food and their kindness to us. Would love to come here again!

The pictures don’t do this view justice. It’s breathtaking! The home is gorgeous and the outdoor space is wonderful. It was too cold for us to swim but we still enjoyed time at the beach. Most of the immediate area was already shut down for the season during our stay but there is a lovely area about a mile walk away. We spent a lot of time there enjoying the coffee shops and restaurants. The house and rooms were fantastic and there was more than enough space for everyone to relax. The host was amazing and went above and beyond to help us when we left some glasses at a restaurant. Thank you so much for a great stay!!

This was our 4th stay at Giannis' place and as always it was perfect. The property is exactly as pictured and described, so comfortable, with amazing outdoor space and everything you need (great WiFi, smart TV, great shower, plenty of towels and bed linen, etc). The outdoor space is the major selling point, with lots of different relaxing areas, plenty of shade, and a fabulous pool. And stunning views to boot! Agios Myron is a lovely little town: if you go please make sure to visit the local bar, restaurant, bakery and shop, all run by lovely people. Looking forward to returning again next year!

Lovely villa sitting in the hills outside of Rethymno City. All self contained and immaculately kept and maintained. Very responsive host who was most welcoming. Nikos and his daughter Katerina did a fantastic job responding to our needs and making us most welcome. Katerina has superb English so communication was never a problem. Would thoroughly recommend. It would also suggest you need a car to get about either down the hill to City and beaches or up the hill to mountain villages and exploring. Pool is great and outdoor space around the villa is superb. Reccomendations - we followed up on a few authentic tavernas from Katerina and they were superb. Would defo go and eat at Athivoles Taverna in Chromonastiri. Only a short drive away ie 7 km but basically the most authentic Cretan cuisine you will taste for sure. Hits were magnificent. All in all we had a great family holiday.

Konstantinos is an outstanding host. He picked us up from the airport and personally escorted us to the villa. He was extremely responsive, quickly answering our questions and offering helpful recommendations for many services around, like massages at the villa (Creta Spa). Communication was seamless throughout. The villa is ideal for a group of 8 – spacious, clean, and well-equipped. The BBQ setup is also a great feature.

The house is simply gorgeous. Our family had a wonderful Christmas holiday here. The host was very generous with items in the refrigerator and a well stocked kitchen. Lots of recommendations of places to eat in the area. Michael met us in the driveway upon arrival and showed us everything in the house, that was very kind. Especially loved access to the washer and dryer because we were traveling with kids. It was too cold to use the pool, but if you are here when it is warm, it would be such delight.

Diana et son frère ont été très réactifs, maison très propre avec de nombreuses possibilités à pied : commerces, plages, restaurants. Nous recommandons cette location.

We had the most dreamy of times at the villa! Maria gave us a warm welcome and made us feel at home right away. We loved her hospitality and proactive hosting, giving us tips and recommendations of places to visit in the area. The place provided everything one could wish for, from pristine looking rooms to hammam showers, a fine gas bbq and shaded terrace, glorious swimming pool, comfy sofa and a kitchen chefs would enjoy. The surroundings are to die for. Sinuous roads and endless sea views, unique beaches, but also mountain hikes, gorges and wine tastings not far at all (car is a must). Closest taverna has delicious food. Agia Galini is a short drive away and offers all essentials should you need to shop, eat out, find an atm or go on a fishing boat trip. Thanks again for a fantastic stay! We will be back sooner than later!

Sehr schöne neue Villa, mit einem tollen Poolbereich. Eine Outdoorküche mit Spielbereich für die Kinder ist auch vorhanden im unteren Teil der Anlage. Gute Möglichkeit für Unternehmungen. Nicht weit zum Strand.

We've spent two great nights at Filia's place as a couple. A bottle of wine and raki waited for us. The house is really cosy and has everything that may be needed during your stay!

Das Zimmer war wunderschön – schon morgens fielen die ersten Sonnenstrahlen hinein. Zwei Strände waren bequem zu Fuß erreichbar, ebenso wie Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Die Unterkunft war sehr sauber, Handtücher und Bettwäsche wurden regelmäßig gewechselt. Besonders genossen habe ich den Pool, das Kochen im Zimmer und die herzliche Freundlichkeit des Personals. Ich würde diese Unterkunft jedem wärmstens empfehlen! :)

We really enjoyed our stay! The apartment met our expectations, the beach is literally 30 seconds away from the apartment. The apartment has everything you need, and also has a large terrace where you can spend time both during the day and in the evening. We absolutely loved the location and Agia Pelagia, a small town, but you will find everything you need within walking distance - supermarkets, cafes, authentic restaurants with delicious local food. Special thanks to Nikos and Agatha for their hospitality and care! Agia Pelagia and Crete will definitely stay in our hearts and we already want to go back!

Die Unterkunft ist super schön mit traumhaften Aussenbereich zum Grillen und Kochen. Die Ausstattung lässt keine Wünsche offen und der Host ist super lieb und gut organisiert. Der Flughafen ist recht nahe was selten laut sein kann aber sehr angenehm zum anreisen. Empfehlung wenn man in die Region Heraklion möchte

We had a wonderful stay at this peaceful and private villa with a truly spectacular ocean view. The perfect setup for our extended family (6 adults and 2 small children), offering plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjoy. The bedrooms were comfortable with en suite bathrooms. Kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to cook at home. The kids especially loved the pool and all the toys available. We enjoyed local meals at Maxis Yard (a charming spot in the nearby village with pottery and homemade food) and Fisalida, which has a stunning ocean view. Both within walking distance. Grocery shopping was easy with both Lidl and the village shops close by. Our host went above and beyond—meeting us for check-in during Easter holiday and even doing grocery shopping for us beforehand as everything was closed. He surprised us with homemade dinner of delicious moussaka and Greek salad, which made us feel so welcomed. We left feeling relaxed and very tempted to return one day.

Anna is an incredibly kind and helpful host, and her lovely apartment is located walking distance to the beautiful old town. It was perfect for my short visit. :)

We can find the apartment easily. Parking is just right in front, maybe I didn’t read properly so I didn’t know that there are 2 flights down. We received the information, pictures before the checkin date, they are very precise so we were able to locate the property with no problem. The host helped us take our suitcases down, We really appreciated her help and she also gave us some lemon and veg from her garden. We enjoyed staying at her apartment. Everything we need is there. If you need help the host was just upstairs.
