JW Marriott Crete Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was amazing. Thanks."

Areti Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff were lovely and helpful. Nice location. Large rooms but could do with an upgrade especially the bathroom."

Olea Villas - Luxury villas by the sea

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing accommodation with everything you can wish for. Location is perfect. Very close to Chania airport, walking distance to local beach, other nice beaches are very nearby as well as Chania Old Town. The Villa itself is amazing. We enjoyed the beautiful private pool with view on the bay. The hosts and Vicky are extremely helpful. And let’s not forget the amazing pies. Thank you Alex for making our stay unforgettable"

Two Km to beach and all amenities

10/10 Excellent

"Wendy was very efficient at responding to any messages .The 5th bedroom is not really big enough for two people and the sofa bed in the family room was quite uncomfortable but the other beds were very comfortable We had a lovely week and enjoyed it very much"

White View Villa by Alex – Your Dream Holiday in the Heart of Crete

10/10 Excellent

"We had a really brilliant time at this villa. The space is fantastic and it is definitely the best equipped house we have ever visited. The pool / outdoor area is beautiful and Alex could not do enough for us. There are a few very nice tavernas very close by and the Roman ruins at Aptera are also within (slightly further) walking distance. Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday!"

Kera Green Private Villa with heated salt water pool.

10/10 Excellent

"This property was great for our family. Adult children with partners. Each room has an ensuite. All bedrooms are downstairs. Living, kitchen, bathroom, laundry up. Beautiful open space all glass with fabulous views. Be aware they are not internally connected. You go outside to go upstairs. The pool is fabulous. Big & great temp with plenty of loungers. Lovely bbq area also. I would suggest a car. The taxi service is very good. However it’s hilly the roads are rough. The beach is a 10min walk down a small decline. Great little food/drink truck there. Fun night time thing to do. The towns are decent walks.. 20mins but tough hilly walks. (Not for young kids or prams).Kaylves near buy is handy for supplies, beach & lots of tavernas on the beach. We preferred Almyrida. More quality restaurants here. If you’re looking for peace & quiet. Happy with being removed, this is a great option."

Villa Konstantina - Three Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 6

8/10 Good

"Séjour agréable dans un petit complexe de 3 villas. Jolie vue dans un environnement encore en construction. Restaurant et petite épicerie à proximité (1.5km), en revanche il manque quelques ustensiles pour faire la cuisine ( poêle, plats, cuillère en bois...) et pour la nettoyer (le lave vaisselle ne lave rien). La piscine est nettoyée tous les jours et le linge changé une fois par semaine. Pour garer la voiture, pas de parking à proprement dit mais un endroit à l'entrée de la villa."

Souda Bay View - Five Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 12

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful views!!! Clean. Good restaurants in the area. Close to Chania and Beaches."

Almyrida Resort

"Lovely hotel in a great location . Breakfast was lovely and fresh every morning. The hotel staff work very hard to keep the hotel clean."
