House vacation rentals in Palaiochora

We had a lovely week in Crete. The accommodation was beautifully presented with great amenities. The perfect balance of the privacy of your own villa with the benefits of a small resort. Poppy and Alexandros were extremely helpful and accommodating - thank you for a lovely stay.

What a wonderful place for a peaceful few days! The view is breathtaking and the area is just beautiful. The villa is extremely well appointed and has every amenity you could ask for, including a fantastic salt water pool. Hora Sfakion is a 5 minute drive or 20 minute walk away and has a choice of shops and tavernas all serving great food. My partner and I stayed with our young baby daughter and Alexandra and Lefteris couldn’t have been more helpful setting up a cot and high chair for our arrival.

Gorgeous view and beautiful property. Hope to make it back again to visit this peaceful paradise in Crete.

Never had such a nice and dedicated hosts! The house was perfect, we had a great time!

The Location was amazing. Quite and private. Everything was amazing there was nothing to complain about probably the best airbnb I have ever stayed in. Marianna is absolutely amazing. The sweetest and most caring host ever. She gave us so many recommendations and was beyond helpful. I would recommend mend this place to everyone!!

We had a wonderful time at this house! It is just like in the pictures – very clean, lovingly furnished and in a great location. The king-size beds are very comfortable. The contact with the hosts was friendly, respectful and absolutely smooth from the beginning. Already at the welcome there was a small, warm welcome gift in the kitchen: honey, olive oil, cookies and raki – a very nice gesture! The view of the sea is beautiful. It should be noted that the house is very noisy. It is located on a small residential street, but cars still drive there and you can hear it extremely in bed, especially in the morning. During our stay, we were even surprised with fresh eggs and oranges from our own production. As a farewell, there was again honey and a bottle of raki – simply great! The hosts were always available, helpful and extremely hospitable. Thank you for everything!

We had a wonderful time in the villa. Manolis was always very helpful and provided us support whenever we needed. I would absolutly recommend the villa. Especially the view is outstanding

We loved staying at this airbnb! It was perfect and Michalis was a wonderful host. We HIGHLY recommend staying here ☺️

great stay in an amazing location in the mountains. very peaceful

It's a dream come true! This place was just perfect – from the amenities to the loving furnishings to the warm hospitality of Ksenia and Giannis. Everything is high-quality, tasteful and designed with so much attention to detail that you feel comfortable and welcome from the first moment. A real highlight was the terrace with a breathtaking view of the sea – waking up in the morning with the sound of the waves, ending the day in the evening with this panorama... priceless! Particularly beautiful was the proximity to the cozy tavern, which is run by the host family. There is the same warm, open atmosphere as in the accommodation. We spent wonderful evenings there with delicious traditional, regional Greek cuisine, live music and a lot of cordiality. A place we think back to with a smile – and a place we definitely want to come back to. A thousand thanks for everything!

This is the kind of place you'll never forget. Wow wow wow! The view is really great; in the green, between the rocks overlooking the sea. There is no one around and you really have a cottage to yourself and that on a very beautiful piece of Crete. It is smart to do groceries on the way (in the kitchen you will find everything to cook and there is a barbecue), because a large supermarket is almost half an hour's drive and the tavern in the village is great for the day, but in the evening you do not want to take that dark route on loose stones (that road is anyway getting used to, but to do). Do you feel like checking out for a few days? Then this is really the place. We will definitely come back!

Absolute bliss. This house is in the beautiful Topolia, a small town on the road to the popular Elafonissi Beach. The actual house is perfect—clean, save, good bathroom, kitchen and stunning view. The bakery and taverns in town are amazing. Much better food than near the beaches. Try the classic crete food and enjoy the wonderful view.

I'll start with one word. WOW. The hosts were as welcoming as I have never experienced. We were personally greeted, got a few snacks right away and were given tips for the area for about 1 hour. The hosts are visibly proud of their island and rightly so! As a farewell, we also received fresh pastries (with spinach in them, it was even warm) and some souvenirs. This has been the best experience on the part of hosts that we have experienced so far. It was just as good in Corfu (again Greeks :D). About the apartment: Fantastic view, clean, super furnished. Cat family on site (4 very young cats and 2 older ones) that you can feed with food that is provided. With kids, that would be perfect. We had a lot of fun with the cats. And the support during the stay was also great. Theodosia was always available. :D Really, you can't go wrong with the apartment. :)

Perfect space in a beautiful location.

All very good and really close to the beach ! Recommended!

Very quiet place with beautiful views of the surrounding area. We made a hike to a beach from the nearby village which was very nice.

This was the best AirBnb I've ever stayed at, and it really made our trip to Crete. Maria was an A+ host. She was extremely responsive and helpful and pointed us to all of the best beaches and restaurants. The house is in immaculate condition, very clean, and very spacious, and is only 10 minutes from downtown Chania. Thank you for everything, Maria!

Michalis is a great host! Recommend to stay here for holiday🥰

This place was even better than the pictures! There are beautiful lemon and orange tree orchards all around leading to the property. The space is clean, private, and very peaceful. I highly recommend it. You will need a rental car if you are staying here since it is a ways off the beaten path. I would consider the rental car a great compromise for such a beautiful Airbnb. There is a private spot to park so no need to pay for parking.

We had a wonderful time in Benoit's house. The terrace is bigger than expected and offers spectacular views of the area that is so close to our heart. Here and there something is wrong with the house (the kitchen we found a bit musty, the shower overflows to the living space), but that is actually amply compensated by all the advantages it has: the location, the space, the view, the outdoor oven, the good communication, the flock of sheep that passes in the evening, ... South-West Crete is even closer to us on our second visit. We definitely hope to return here for the few years!

Absolutely beautiful place, we loved it! The outdoor areas and views are amazing! Lefteris was extremely kind and helpful, shared a lot of great recommendations with us! We’d come back in a heartbeat

Lovely to sit and look straight at the sea from front terrace Vineyard view at rear. Lovely taverna few minutes walk with live entertainment on Monday. Easy drive to many lovely beaches and tavernas Highly recommend

We had an amaing 4 night stay. Photos matched the description, it has everything you need for a comfortable stay, including cooking amenities, oil, seasonings, coffee, and washing capsule. The owner also kindly prepare some fresh fruits, cakes and raki to welcome us. The surroundings are beautiful, we can watch the most amazing sunset every day right on the terrace. The restaurant next door is great as well. There is a 5min walk to a sandy pink beach. I would recommend to have a car to be able to explore this area, the drive around here through olive groves and coastlines is really scenic. Strongly recommend this place if you are looking for a quiet and peaceful stay.

We were welcomed by Polykarpos's dad. Excellent hosting and very warm. The place is superb with its 3 terraces. If you like calm, nature and beautiful scenery...Bingo. Plenty of hikes to do for walkers. We didn't do Samaria. Too crowded even in early May and we were very very disappointed with Elafonisi. We are sold a dream that existed but the Cretans ate the goose that laid the golden eggs. We did just as many other superb hikes. You have to go eat or have a drink in Sougia... Superb little place. To conclude, we greatly enjoyed the comfort of this small house clinging to the hillside around the tangerine, orange and lemon trees.
