Villa holiday rentals in Achlia

This was an absolutely gorgeous property. It was spacious, well-maintained, and offered beautiful views of the Aegean Sea. The pool and garden are beautiful. This property also felt private while being a short drive to the downtown area with all the shops, restaurants, and the beach. Would 100% recommend this property!

Nice house, very nice for 8 people. The views are amazing, the terraces are beautiful and the pool is very beautiful! Although we were there in December, we were able to have lunch and dinner on the deck and use the bbq (which was cleaned every day!) and even the pisicine. There is a small beach at 10 minutes walk. Agios is a 5-10 minute drive away. Ionna was very welcoming, responsive, and helpful. We would recommend it in a second.

We had a wonderful week! The hosts, Mr. and Mrs. Vaggelis were lovely and full of special touches. They were responsive and always available and attentive, making sure we didn't miss anything. Tina, who welcomed us on the first day was also very attentive and super caring towards us! As for the villa, it was perfect from every point of view! The listing photos match reality! I would even say that it was beyond what was indicated! The impeccable cleanliness, the services offered, the decoration and design of the house, not to mention this incredible view of the sea and the island of Spinalonga. I recommend these hosts and this villa! Go there without a second thought! You won't be disappointed! Thanks again 😊

Amazing stay, exactly as described on the listing. Beautiful view, very clean premises, lots of kitchen utensils, BBQ worked well. We cannot ascribe any faults to this stay, it was 10/10. Perfect for a couple stay.

Staying at this property was truly an amazing experience. The house is a hidden gem, offering complete privacy in a serene and peaceful location, perfect for escaping the hustle of daily life. The property itself is the epitome of luxury—every detail is thoughtfully designed, from the elegant interior decor to the premium amenities that made our stay incredibly comfortable. It felt like a five-star retreat, yet with the warmth of a personal touch. What really stood out was the host’s exceptional hospitality. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was flawless. Every need was anticipated, and the attention to detail was remarkable — from the impeccably clean spaces to the small, thoughtful touches that made the house feel like home. If you’re looking for a private, luxurious getaway with a host who genuinely cares about their guests’ experience, this is it. It exceeded expectations.

Perfect for our small family and the host kindly arranged a baby cot free of charge which was extremely helpful. If travelling with a baby note the curtains are not blockouts and you may need an extra sheet or bring your own to cover the windows for day naps and bedtime in summer. A value add was that the apartment was serviced by a cleaner during the week which was a pleasant surprise. Note you are not in walking distance to a variety of markets or restaurants so make arrangements to get some food on your way to the property (connecting hotel restaurant only opens at 7pm). It is beautifully secluded, no neighbors looking in, lovely pool and view with only a short walk to the beach. We would stay again!!

Very friendly welcoming by Annette and Ton. The outdoor patio and the private swimming pool are the highlight of the place. Ton nicely and discreetly took care of the pool before we woke up. Mirtos is only a few minutes drive away with some nice restaurants. Perfect for a relaxing family holidays.

We had some difficulty finding the place initially. Do not rely on the link on Airbnb. It will take you miles away. Google Four Seasons Private Villa and follow the link there

We were amazed by this property! Both the property itself and the amazing view were extraordinarily beautiful! It was like paradise! And Konstantinos was very responsive and helpful during our stay.

We had the best time! Maria was so friendly and everything was perfect. We were even invited to eat dinner with them and had a blast. We were 14 people and we had plent of space for us all. It was clean and we even got new towels in the middle of the week which we did not expect. Would absolutely recommend staying there.

Overall, we felt very comfortable, were always well looked after and the apartment met our expectations. You have to know that in the evening hours one or the other plane also flies to Heraklion. A small supermarket is directly on site and a 2-minute walk away. Otherwise, a quick shopping or eating out by public transport is not so easy without a rental car. By car, everything is no problem in five minutes in a wide selection. The view and the apartment is very good. Swimming on site on foot in five minutes very possible below the apartment. This one was much more generous than expected. Overall, we will be happy to come back.

It was perfect! A beautiful place that offers exactly what it promises. Near the city of Ierapetra for anything needed but at the same time quiet enough to offer the tranquility one needs to rest.

The house was very comfortable for our family. We especially loved the pool and outdoor living area with the beautiful gardens surrounding it. Jenny is a wonderful host! The location was ideal for exploring the East end of Crete.

We had an amazing week - we really enjoyed the house and its amenities and the beach is just across the street, so it’s a great place to disconnect and enjoy. If you like to run, there’s a long beach just a few mins away. Hosts were great, very responsive and super helpful. 100% recommend, would definitely come back.

the best airbnb we have ever been too! Stavros is so nice and helpfull the house is just perfect cozy clean beautiful very very recommended!!!

Claudia helped us to find the place. Unfortunately, Googel shows a busy address under the Air B&B directions. (If the sea is on the right, then do not go up to the left, continue on the street and 7m after the black sign "Taxi" right down the courtyard driveway.) The host, Despoina was great, very discreet and always available. Since nothing was missing, we only asked you to introduce the pool lighting timer once. What was done for the next night. The view from the upper bedroom and from the terrace is unique. In the private pool, you are protected from view of the neighbors. Under the house is a small private stand for all guests of Despoina. For dinner we were always in the neighboring bay in the tavern. They have a good day ticket with good, inexpensive fish dishes. The tavern is max. 10 min to walk.

We had an amazing stay. The house is beautiful and as described. The house and the grounds were pristine. Tony and his family were very friendly, accommodating and greeted us early morning for check in. They provided drinks and breakfast for the morning which was fantastic as we were travelling with 2 small boys. Highly recommended and look forward to returning.

We had a great stay at this beautiful property—it was clean, spacious, and perfect for our group of five. Each bedroom having its own bathroom was a huge plus, and we really enjoyed the pool and outdoor seating areas. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the views of the surrounding area were lovely. The location is peaceful and quiet, away from the noise of the city, but still just a short drive to several great beaches. The host, George, was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. He explained how to use the smart panel to turn on the boiler for hot water when he met us at the property, but we didn’t follow the instructions as closely as we should have the first morning, which caused the water to be cold. The boiler runs for 30 minutes at a time and seems to rely on solar heating, so hot water can be limited if multiple people shower back-to-back. Turning on the boiler in advance and spacing out showers made a big difference. Highly recommend this place!

We had an amazing time in Villa Capri. It was absolutely spotless and had everything we could possibly need. We stayed here with 3 of our children and the villa and pool was very well maintained and safe for them. The location was fantastic. You walk out of the villa and straight into the village square, which is beautiful with lovely restaurants, bars and bakeries. Really hope to return one day. Thanks again Jackie, Rae and Jason

Perfect accomodation for our 2 families. Nice garden and terraces. Beautiful views. Quite a challenging and steep access road but we got used to that

Check-in and check-out was super easy. Our host was very accommodating. There was a nice and delicious host gift to get in. When the vacuum cleaner was broken, he picked it up and brought it back a few days later. The villa is slightly elevated overlooking the infinity pool, associated olive grove and Malia. The view is gorgeous. You are lonely (except for the crickets), but still within 10 minutes walking in the city, where there are a bakery with delicious cakes and baguette / croissants in addition to several supermarkets, lots of restaurants, right by the church. The house is equipped with everything you could need. It is nicely decorated, with decoration, many pictures and books (also which in German). There is a foosball that we liked to use. The pool is gorgeous, about 1.40 m deep (our son is 1.44 m tall and was able to hold your head over water on your toes. The pool may be 6m x 3.50m. It's just appreciated. He was enough for us. It is nice that often despite the 30 - 32 degrees Celsius a light wind went, so it was a lot of fun to stay in and around the pool. We were able to park our rental car under a carob tree on the property, so that it was always in the shade. We highly recommend staying at Villa Verde.

Great place and great living 💪😄

Fantastic for both families and adults. Wealth of space
