House holiday rentals in Stalos

We stayed there during the autumn holidays and can highly recommend the house. Since we had a rental car, the place was easy to reach. You have a private parking space and felt very comfortable and safe, as the houses are additionally secured by a gate. The location is a bit secluded, but very private and quiet. The view of the ocean is breathtaking and the private pool was just great. Everything was sparkling clean, the beds were cozy and the decor in the house perfectly adequate and very modern. A dining table is not available in the house but that didn't bother us in any way, as the weather in October was still so good that we could always eat outside. Maria helped us check in and gave us good excursion tips almost daily and inquired if everything was okay. The photos in the description are true to the original and reflect exactly what you actually find. We were super satisfied

Very nice place ! Close to lots of places to go , very helpful host !

We really enjoyed our stay. The accommodation is very lovingly furnished, clean and has a fantastic location right on the beach. The surrounding area is perfect for sightseeing (close to Chania, Aptera) and hiking. The hosts were very easy to reach and very friendly - there were even some Greek delicacies to welcome us. We would love to come back and can highly recommend this place! Thank you very much!

The villa is absolutely gorgeous. It is in a small town with no facilities (apart from a very informal cafe next door), but the quiet area was exactly what we were looking for. Yes there are some dogs etc, but not excessive, the noise is just local life in the town, which was actually really lovely. The hosts were extremely communicative, we had a few minor issues, but they were sorted in a matter of minutes! Loads of tavernas, beaches, supermarkets within a very short drive, spoilt for choice for loads of amazing food. Highly recommend a stay here, the villa, area, food and people were all fantastic.

Beautiful villa in a wonderful setting, the outside space is really spectacular. Everything you could need is available at the villa. We were staying with a 10m old and there were loads of baby items which made our trip so much easier. The hosts couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating and helped us with recommendations when we asked. Would highly recommend this villa. It’s also within easy driving distance to lovely places on the island.

We were a party of five, my wife and I and 3 30 year olds, our two twins and a son-in-law. We all couldn't say enough good things about this home: the view has to be one of the best on the whole island, relaxing, extremely private and immediately felt right at home. Starting and ending each day with that view, I didn't need anything else, but there is as much to do as you want. For example, just 6 minutes down the hill, you have the great little town of Platka with a few delicious local restaurants, market and a nice sports bar if you want a cocktail...like me. Another 10 minutes down the hill you come to Alymrida, the small coastal city that has nearly a dozen varied restaurants right on the water. 40 minutes away is the charming city of Chania, the jewel of Crete. This home is centrally located, 20+ minutes from the highway to go anywhere you wish to go...but keep in mind your leaving this view behind. I hope you enjoy it half as much as we did.

Fabulous house and location. Clean and stylish with very comfortable beds. Very handy for the beach and town and very close to the supermarket. An exceptionally beautiful part of Crete.

Andrea's villa and location was as wonderful as we'd hoped. We loved swimming in our private pool before breakfast and the view of the ocean from the terrace was outstanding, especially for sunsets, which were spectacular. The location was great, being situated away from crowds but with easy access to many beautiful beaches and tavernas. Andrea's handy hints were really useful, from where to refill water bottles from a spring, or which taverna on Sfinari beach to visit. He responded very quickly if we had any questions, so overall cannot recommend this villa highly enough. Thanks Andrea!

We are returning from a 10 days stay at Fokion's house in Almerydas. We arrived late at night and Michael had sent us a video that guided us to the house without difficulty. The house is very nice, very pleasant, located on the mountainside with an exceptional view of the sea and the mountains. Located near the shops of the city and in a very relaxing calm. Michael is very responsive and has good advice, he intervened immediately for a small repair in the bathroom. When we arrived he had prepared fruit, honey, olive oil, tomatoes, cucumbers, etc. Only downside, the narrowness of the bathroom but we accommodate it. We would definitely recommend this place to explore the east side of Crete. Thanks to Michael for all the information shared on strategic points to visit. Crete is a gem and we'll be back again!

Our family stay was even more enjoyable than expected. We quickly felt at home. The house (Polymnia) is exactly as described and illustrated by the photos. The view and environment is amazing, while the pool enchanted the kids. The house is perfectly maintained and clean. The beds are comfortable and the air conditioning in the bedrooms are very efficient. The overall amenity is complete. The kitchen has all the necessary equipment for cooking, also with basic condiments. Chrysi is an extremely available and pleasant host in contact. Very responsive, she always responded to our requests, no matter how small. She loves her region and does not hesitate to share her knowledge through valuable advice. We would recommend this simply magical place without holding back.

We had a great stay at Michalis's place! The location of the accommodation is ideal, with beautiful views and a quiet environment. Michalis and his son welcomed us warmly, even though we arrived a little later because we had taken the more beautiful route through the city of Rethymno for us. A carafe of raki and chilled water was waiting for us to welcome us – a very nice gesture from Michalis. We particularly enjoyed breakfast on the balcony, overlooking the Cretan Sea and surrounded by chickens, ducks, cats and the friendly dog Bruno. Our son was thrilled and would have preferred to take all the animals with us! The house itself is large, cozy and perfectly equipped and we felt completely comfortable. Michalis’ father even surprised us with fresh eggs, a really loving attention. Overall, this place is a place to relax and enjoy. We will be happy to come back. Highly recommended!

Welcoming and responsive hosts. Comfortable, pleasant and functional accommodation. Located in the quiet of the city, while remaining less than 10 minutes from the city center. I would highly recommend...

The two villas were excellent better in real life than the photographs in the brochure. George the owner was super helful. A beautiful sunset every night in front of the villas, very beautiful area, Greece at its best. Every restaurant, supermarket shops etc , super helpful people and so friendly, we all felt very welcome. A perfect holiday.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! This villa in the picturesque village of Koukounara is a dream come true. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted with stunning views of the mountains and sea that make you feel like you’ve stepped into paradise. The villa is even better and bigger than the photos—an architectural masterpiece blending luxury, comfort, and thoughtful design. Every detail is state-of-the-art, from modern appliances to plush furnishings. It’s spacious and perfect for unwinding, whether you’re inside or enjoying the beautiful outdoor areas. Every moment feels like pure luxury.Manolis was exceptional, providing amazing recommendations for local activities, restaurants, and hidden gems.His guidance helped us discover incredible places and experiences we’ll never forget.This villa is perfect for anyone seeking luxury, breathtaking views, and local culture. We’re already counting down the days until we return with our whole family next summer!

Alexandra’s place finished off our holiday perfectly. It was better than the photos, with everything you needed. Cristina was great, very friendly and helpful, happy to welcome her to Australia if she comes for a holiday. There are quite a few restaurants around and it is only a short drive into Chania Old town (depending on traffic). The location was great as you could book tours or hire a boat. From this location we went to Balos, winery, olive oil tour and got to know the area. Would definitely stay again or recommend friends to stay. Thanks for making Crete so memorable.

Had a fantastic 6 week stay at Nektarios's flat. It was perfect for our needs in terms of comfort, space, and location. Nektarios was super responsive on the few occasions that we needed his help with the flat. Location is quiet but close to fantastic assortment of restaurants, cafés, bakeries, the Old Lighthouse and harbour. Really enjoyable stay and would highly recommend.

We felt very comfortable in the stone, small summer house. We loved the courtyard covered by an old vine. In the evening you could illuminate it comfortably and beautifully. We were pleased that there were all the necessary spices in the kitchen and a bottle of red wine was on the table to welcome you. The location in a quiet side street but still only 2 minutes walk from the beach and the old village center of Colombia is ideal. The handover and communication with Dimitrios was very nice and straightforward. We are happy to recommend the place! We felt very comfortable in the small stone summer house.

We had an amazing stay in this beautiful villa. No car needed as within walking distance of local tavernas, small shop and beach. Bus stop just a minutes walk away with regular service in Chania and buzzing village of Platanias. We didn't have children with us but villa was child friendly with option to gate off pool and stairgate. The villa itself was spotless. Pool was cleaned regularly and was spacious. Had several sitting areas in outside space. Although we didn't do any cooking the kitchen was well equipped with everything you could need. The bedrooms were clean and spacious. The shower was amazing, powerful with no issues with hot water. A lovely touch was having some supplies waiting for us on arrival such as juice, fruit, spread. Sophia was easy to contact and responsive. We would definitely stay again and recommend to anyone. Thank you so much Sophia!

We stayed at Thomas's house for a relaxing, car-free beach holiday at the end of September. The house was very comfortable, with a lovely garden overlooking the sea that was perfect for outdoor meals. Bakery, supermarkets, a few neighbourhood restaurants and sandy beaches all within walking distance -the nearest beach is about 10 minutes' walk with two more slightly further. Chania is a short bus ride away. Thomas was a charming and helpful host, who made us feel very welcome.

we had a great time at MinasHouse. the house is very pleasant to live in:-)

Everything was fine , Traditional house in perfect location and lovely garden

We had a fantastic stay at Seaside Villa Lavrys. The villa itself is spacious, well-maintained, and located in a peaceful area with a lovely view. It’s a perfect spot for a relaxing getaway, but do keep in mind that you’ll need a car to get around as the location is a bit remote. Taxi transportation from Chania costs around €30. What truly made our experience special was our host, Alex. From the moment we booked, Alex was incredibly responsive and attentive, always available to answer any questions we had. He went out of his way to ensure we were comfortable throughout our stay, offering great local tips and assistance whenever needed. His kindness and willingness to help made a huge difference in our trip. Alex’s family was also very warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. We would highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a peaceful, family-friendly stay in Crete, and Alex’s hospitality made it even better.

A beautiful, functional, new and clean house in a colourful and a peaceful village. The village located on a mountain and the weather there is amazing. In a 15 minutes drive you will reach beautiful beach - so you win tow different geography in one stay. The communication with the owner was excellent - fast responded for every question and need we had and helped use get along. Warmly Recommend!

As a young family our stay at Gianna’s was exactly what we were looking for. Plenty of space in the garden for the kids to play and a playground to use, A grill in the yard, sun beds and a hammock to rest and read a book. A 10-15 minute walk to the main beach and restaurants. A great location to start the incredible hike to the gorge with Monastery.
