Beachfront vacation rentals in Souda Bay

What better way to start a holiday by drinking a complimentary wine on a balcony with amazing views of the port. The apartment is close to an array of places to eat and relax . We loved our stay at the apartment and really appreciated being able to stay a few hours past check out to make the most of our last day before catching the plane home. For a couple this is a fantastic place to stay

Everything was fine :)

We loved the large balcony that wrapped around the apartment . The sunsets were incredible from there. The outside & inside furniture was of a very good quality and it was great to be able to sit out in the evenings. Inside is very well designed, a great layout, the kitchen is very well equipped and the sofas are very comfortable, the view from the sitting room and kitchen has an incredible sea view . The bathroom is really spacious with a great shower and 2 basins , all of a high standard. The 3 bedrooms all a good size, had lovely views towards the old village and town built up in to the mountain . The bedding was of an exceptional quality. The apartment was so close to the beach & to the the old town. We had incredible meals at both. A bus stop at the end of the road and many supermarkets were great too. Both Phillipe & Michelle were excellent hosts, attentive & helpful, you couldn’t fault them. We loved our stay! Thank you!

5* place 5* location 5* communication.

Absolutely beautiful location, 2 minute walk to the main Old Port area and tons of nice shops in the back streets.

Excellent location in the old town, just above the port. Clean and easy to find

Loved it. Would stay there again!

Manos and Christina were very friendly and responsive. All of our questions were answered promptly. The house was a little difficult to find at night but Christina was there at check in to show us around. At the house, there were supplies like eggs, lunch meat, bread, fresh fruit, olive oil , and a bottle of wine. This was greatly appreciated as we arrived after dark and it gave us some breakfast food for the morning. We loved the sound of the waves at night lulling us to sleep! The hosts also changed the bedding and sheets after a couple of days which was extremely thoughtful and generous. The house is close to many restaurants and has a few super markets near by. Close beaches were also nice and we enjoyed the peacefulness they provided prior to the big tourist season. Lake Kournas was beautiful and only about an hour drive from the house. Having a car was nice but not entirely necessary for the house’s location. Driving in Crete can be a little daunting but doable!

We had a fabulous stay here. The villa is lovely, inside and out, with a well equipped kitchen, including food staples and a variety of different seating areas outside. The pool is great and the beach is virtually on the doorstep, with free sunbeds (if you buy at least a drink from the local taverna). In terms of local amenities, there is a small shop and a couple of tavernas within a few minutes walk, plus a small hotel complex, where you can also eat and visit their bar. There are 2 larger supermarkets within a couple of kilometres, for which you would either need a car or taxi, however the hosts were kind enough to ferry us there and back, when we first arrived, which was so helpful. Chania Old Town is beautiful and we travelled there on a couple of occasions by taxi (28E) in the evening, but you can also take a bus which stops near to the villa. Finally, the hosts, Eleni and Thrasyvoulos were lovely, regularly checking in without being intrusive. Highly recommended.

The place is so beautiful and clean. The view from the outdoors is nice and peaceful. The scene of sheep eating grass multiple times a day in a small field under the pool is wonderful. (Photo first house) Maria, who showed us around, is so kind and nice.

I spent 5 nights here with my mother and 10 year old daughter, and I have not one negative comment…the house is better than pictures! The beautiful gardens give it a feel like being in a movie, and there is beautiful beach literally a few steps outside the house. There is lots of great restaurants and supermarkets within walking distance. We rented a car, but if you plan to just relax and stay close by, you don’t need one. There is also a bus that you jump on to take you to Old Chania. This place is perfect for families with young and older children. And it’s so comfortable you will not want to leave. Natalia, is so kind and sweet, and is near by should you need anything.

Our AirBNB in Chania was very clean, just as described in the listing, very modern and quiet place. The pool was very clean, and there was plenty of room to accommodate all 7 of us. Our host was very sweet and greeted us immediately upon check in, she was very friendly and always responsive if we ever needed anything. The apartment was very nicely decorated and sparkling clean. I would 100% recommend staying here if you are traveling to Chania!

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful, well-kept, and lovingly furnished place. Everything you need is there. The host was super friendly and gave us some good recommendations for restaurants and the surrounding area. Upon arrival, the fridge was already stocked with drinks, fruit, and other items, so there was no need to go shopping on the day of our arrival. It was a perfect stay, and we would love to come back.

Extremely beautiful and friendly!

Anyone who has gone on family holidays with their parents in the 90s and the next, and remembers them with nostalgia, stay here... It brought back memories of my childhood vacations. Very beautiful and simple space, with the hammocks in each apartment, the sun in the morning as it hit the grass, the smell of the morning watering, the seagulls that can be heard from afar and the whole setup made me think about it for every summer season, even a 3-day stay with my family... The apartment has the basics, and anything one thinks they will need extra, I think the host who is excellent in terms of communication, will provide it! Thanks so much!

Thanks Peter and his whole team for a great stay. The villa was in a great location, close to a couple good restaurants and markets; it was private, with only one other villa in the area with guests; and very comfortable. Both my wife & I and the other couple we were with felt we had privacy while on property since we split accommodations upstairs and down. Overall it was a great villa and wonderful vacation!! Thanks again Team Peter. Chris, Kay, Jon, and Pam

we had a lovely stay with nina and rebecca—and wish it had been longer. after staying in santorini two years ago and falling in love with greece, we wanted to try another island. we’re so glad we found this gem of an airbnb. steps from the beach, the pool, our own private hot tub, a strollable little beach town, and the resort’s restaurant and bar. dinner the first night was delish and the staff was so friendly, we made a habit of coming back throughout our stay. giorgios was a star ✨ cute cat friends. sweet resident dog. we hope to return.

Pasifai Residence was better than one can expect! The decor has neutral tones, perfectly complimenting the stone accents & medieval architecture of Old Town. The living room is very comfortable & the dining table is ideal for breakfast overlooking the pristine blue water. The kitchen & bathrooms have all the amenities you need & there are even additional items (sugar, coffee, wine, water, fresh fruit, lotion, etc.) thoughtfully provided by the host. The bedrooms have ample space and soft bedding. Bedroom 1 has harbor/water views & although the 2nd does not have windows, surprisingly, that makes it feel like a private hideaway. It is tucked beyond the kitchen, up two short steps & through a whimsical arched wood door that is like entering a magical hobbit home. Konstantinos is a superb host! He was helpful even prior to our arrival, arranging transfers, private tours & help w/luggage. The apartment is in the heart of Old Town with shops and restaurants at your doorstep. 10 stars⭐️!

A great location right near the beach with clear views of an incredible sunset. The balcony was our favorite part but the location was great, with restaurants within seconds and the old port within a nice 15min walk along the water. Perfect. Katerina and George were amazing, easy communication and both went above and beyong welcoming us to Chania. Would highly recommend staying here if youre visiting Chania.

Beautiful location and the hosts were so helpful throughout our stay

We had a great time at Pavlos’s place. It was modern and spacious. The kitchen had everything you need including condiments, a choice of coffees, still and sparkling water and a bowl of fruit. There’s also a washing machine and powder to use. The lounge is comfortable. The shower was over the bath and had lovely hot water. The beds were all very comfortable with nice white linen. There was plenty of cupboard space too. The 2nd bedroom is off the main bedroom which was fine for us as we had our grand daughter with us. There’s a lovely big balcony for morning sun or afternoon shade. Pavlos was very responsive to my messages and when we locked ourselves out, he was there within 2 minutes to let us in. He gave us some great suggestions too. We arrived around 9.45pm at night and it wasn’t a problem for his mum to let us into the apartment. The beach is a 5 min walk, old town 10 min and main bus station also 10 minutes. I would definitely recommend this apartment for a comfortable stay.

What a fabulous place in a great location! Right in the charming old town and close to the water, you wouldn't hope to stay in a better location. The flat is spacious and beautiful, with a lovely terrace. 10/10 would recommend. Thanks so much for the perfect stay!

Karolina and Jadwiga are very pleasant hosts and communication between us was always very quick and helpful. Check-in works perfectly. However, Google Maps showed the neighboring building for us. However, the accommodation is advertised outside and that's how you find it. The accommodation itself is excellent: modern kitchen and bathrooms, beautiful rooms. And the outdoor area with sun loungers, parasols, tables, chairs, barbecue areas and beach is phenomenal! The only thing that is a bit disturbing: You are right on the main road and in the house itself you can still hear this noise well.

A stunning new apartment - spotless, comfortable with all the luxuries of a fine home. Everything is new and it’s decorated beautifully. Quiet too. Amazing location.
