Monthly Rentals in Skotino

Our family spent a wonderful 14 days in Manolis’ house at the end of October. We fully recommend this place if you’re traveling with kids! Our twins spent nearly all their time outdoors, feeding the friendly cats, collecting stones, and playing in the treehouse – they were absolutely delighted. The house is spacious enough to comfortably accommodate a large family (we were 5 adults and 2 kids) and is beautifully furnished with a stylish and cozy feel. The outdoor area is perfect for children to explore and play safely, and the quiet surroundings made for a relaxing retreat. Manolis and his family were excellent hosts, providing everything we needed to feel at home and ensuring our stay was perfect. If you’re looking for a family-friendly destination with plenty of charm and warmth, this is the ideal spot. We would love to come back!

If you're planning to visit Heraklion and its surrounding areas, staying at Maria’s place is an absolute no-brainer. Nestled in a charming hilltop village, this peaceful and beautifully restored historic stone house offers an authentic Cretan experience. The setting is serene and picturesque—perfect for anyone looking to escape the crowds and enjoy the true essence of the island. But what truly sets this place apart is Maria herself. She is the epitome of Greek hospitality—warm, welcoming, and always ready with helpful tips or a delicious homemade treat. Her kindness and care make you feel like family from the moment you arrive. Highly, highly recommend this hidden gem for an unforgettable stay near Heraklion.

This is a wonderful cottage just east of Heraklion. Tasos and his mother were very friendly and helpful. The bathrooms (3) and kitchen were very clean and we had everything we needed. The water isn't potable and it would have been nice to know that in advance or signed/mentioned in the cottage. Two liters of water were left for us, as well as shampoo, conditioner, coffee, sugar, garbage bags, laundry soap, and other basic items. Parking is on the street/road only. Highly recommend, would stay again!

Friendly host, helpful, everything matches the description, ideal place for a vacation especially with the sea is nice and not deep, very quiet. The host gave us everything for breakfast, coffee, tea, Cretan cake, juice... Thanks so much! Just a tip, it's best to rent a car for your errands and outings, it's not expensive anyway
