Cottage holiday rentals in Aegean Islands

We stayed at Georgia's mansion during our honeymoon at the end of September. The place was large for two people, but we felt like royalty with all of the space :) The mansion is beautifully redone on the inside - it has modern amenities with a traditional aesthetic. The place had absolutely everything we needed in the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, and outside. The pool was wonderful! We spent our afternoons lounging after hot days in Chania and the surrounding areas, which offer lots of restaurants, attractions, and great shopping! The area was great as well - easy to get to, quiet, and with easy access to the main road that can take you east or west in no time :) We highly recommend a stay at this beautifully restored mansion, and we hope to be back ourselves someday!

What a wonderful place to escape to. A beautiful home, amazing views, wonderful pool and hot tub. Very clean and well cared for. Saavas was incredibly helpful and friendly & accommodating. Can’t fault it at all. In fact I feel very lucky to have found these four nights as it’s booked up way in advance normally. A tiny piece of paradise. Taverna was closed next door but that just made it more peaceful (maybe noisier if open but still private) - such an interesting time of year before the season started - watching all the Greeks get everything ready for the season! Pool was cold but the hot tub was amazing and warm so was a great balance. Easter was a lovely time to visit especially as very lucky with the weather. Did get eaten alive the first night so beware of mosquitos but we found the special plugs, & were more cautious after that. Maybe it was early season, maybe the recent rain. Loved the Swallows and house martins that flew over for a period morning and evening Perfect…

Amazing terrace, felt private and had nice views on the sea and mountains. Great communication with the host.

Our stay at Evangelia’s place was easily one of the best experiences I’ve ever had—and I’ve traveled to multiple countries over the past 10+ years! Our host was simply the best I’ve ever encountered. She was kind, friendly, attentive, and always responsive, making sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. The place itself was immaculate. The interior was spotless, classic, and so well-maintained. Outside, the views were breathtaking. Each night, we were treated to the incredible sight of the Milky Way, and in the mornings, we had the ocean in clear view and goats greeting us as we enjoyed the delicious breakfast our host generously provided. It was so peaceful and quiet—pure tranquility. I’ve been recommending this place to everyone because it truly was the highlight of my trip. The location was also ideal—conveniently in the middle of the island, making it easy to drive to various spots, nothing too far! You’ll definitely need a rental car though! Book this place!!!!!!

We spent several days in Villa Nikki and had a wonderful time. The house, the view, the Pool - everything was just amazing. Communication with Giannis and his team was also perfect. If our vacation wouldn't have ended we probably just would have stayed there for ever :)

The villa is beautifully located in a dead end on the mountain of the small village of Armenoi. Everything is well maintained, clean and atmospheric. All sanitary functions are very great in shape, the kitchen is great incl. Dishwasher equipped and the sleeping areas maintained. The grill worked impeccably and coal and lighter were ready. The communication with Elina has been great, very helpful and attentive. A car is indispensable if you want to go to the sea ( 8 min. Travel time to Kalyves ). I would come back anytime and therefore also recommend the best conscience.

We had a fantastic week at Anthi's place, we felt completely at home and relaxed for the entire time we were there. Anthi was super friendly and gave lots of recommendations for things to do while we were on Naxos, and was also able to sort our hire car for us in advance. The villa itself was spotlessly clean, really spacious and we had a nice view of the sea/sunset from our pool terrace area. The location is great for exploring Naxos and felt so peaceful throughout the day. We really enjoyed the communal pool area too, which never felt too busy. Breakfasts were delivered each morning by Alexandros - plentiful and delicious, lots of Greek treats! It made for a special start to each day. The villa was cleaned daily to a high standard too. Highly recommended! ☆☆☆☆☆

A big thank you to Agathi and her dad for hosting us. We came as a family (3 generations), and this house was unanimous. We had a lovely stay at this beautiful house and its breathtaking view… this is the perfect place to disconnect and relax. Agathi is very nice and always available at any time to answer our questions and carry us service. Thanks for everything Agathi! 🙏🏻🥰🧿

Beautiful House with an amazing view. Kimo is very friendly and responsive.

Chryssa’s house was so lovely. The house has a beautiful interior with authentic touch. The area where the house is very quiet and peaceful. The garden of the house also pretty, sunsets are unreal. Having drinks and dinner in the garden is very delightful. If you are looking for a place to feel like a local and just relax, I would highly recommend it. But the island is big and nearest beach 15mins by car so you definitely need a car. Also for groceries you need to have 15 mins drive to the closest super market. You can be prepared that the village is very small and not many amenities. Chryssa was very helpful when I needed help. She was very responsive and friendly anytime I wrote her.

The house and garden is even more beautiful, relaxing and peaceful than the description! John and Maria have been such fantastic hosts, Maria baked us an amazing cake to welcome us, and left us a bottle of local wine which was delicious. Sotiris and John have given us lots of interesting information about things to do and see, they are perfect hosts, very responsive, they are there if you want to ask something or need something but also leave you to enjoy your holiday. There is everything we need, the bed is very comfortable, the house is like home and tasteful, Maria keeps it looking lovely and changes our sheets every week. They have made a paradise, we will come again!

It was my first Airbnb stay with Fehim and Meryem. It’s such gracious hosts and don’t forget to ask them making amazing food with ingredients straight out from the garden backyard. It’s quite a journey to meet such good people regardless of their backgrounds, nationalities or religions, etc. And I am sorry for my terrible singing. I definitely will return to Turkey after the retirement in a couple years. Two thumbs up. With love and regards, Vu Tran.

Absolutely beautiful! We had a wonderful time here, the private beach is outstanding, the accommodation is comfortable, the host is wonderful. Couldn't have been more pleased!

spacilious 2 bedroom apartment. 200m from the beach. very comfortable and worth for money.

This was our second time staying at the stone house. It’s perfectly located for exploring Almyrida, Gavalochori and surrounding areas. The house is clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Vasilis kindly put a mosquito net above the bed too which made a big difference for our stay this time.

Gorgeous and quiet location surrounded by nature. Perfect for resting and disconnecting. The house is fully equipped and well cared for. The outdoor space is fenced but not completely private since there is another house on the same plot with which they share the parking and the entrance. Still, the distance between the houses is enough and doesn't create an issue in the stay (if you have good neighbors!). Recommended for those who love nature and appreciate seclusion and slow living.

We were blown away by the beauty of this place- even more charming than the photos with a very relaxed and authentic ambience. The highlight for us was the rocky beach access to crystal clear water and excellent snorkeling. It’s a bit isolated - which was perfect for us, but extremely well equipped with everything you need for cooking inside and outside! We received a wonderful welcome complete with a large stock of fruits and vegetables. The only downside was it was hard to leave. Thank you for the excellent stay!

Clean, pleasant and quiet space with traditional aesthetic elements (which I greatly appreciated, as it respects and highlights the local character of the island). The location was quite convenient (at least for anyone with a vehicle), as it was a short drive from both the country and the port and western beaches of the island. Eva, a very discreet and friendly host, gave us clear instructions to find the house and was responsive when we wanted to communicate.

Nikolaos' house is a little slice of heaven that we left with great regret. If you love nature and animals, this place is the perfect place, in a beautiful and very peaceful environment. Our daughters spent the entire stay at the bottom of the garden where they took care of feeding the animals (1 adorable dog, 1 rabbit, chickens and a rooster, and several cats), picking up freshly laid eggs or picking the oranges from the orchard to squeeze a fresh juice. We enjoyed the relaxing moments in this beautiful garden, surrounded by olive trees, orange trees, cactus, lemon trees, and massifs of flowers. The house is also very well equipped with essentials, and the presence of air conditioning makes it feel good in any season (heating or air conditioning). Nikolaos is a responsive and welcoming host, who was very accommodating when our plane was rescheduled, with unexpected arrival in the middle of the night. We would definitely recommend this listing.

Wonderful hosts beautiful place. Feelings of peaceful top/end to the world in their place Romantic sunset on the Mani… Thanks Pietro

We loved our stay. The location is superb. We also love the visiting goose and duck who were very tame. The house is equipped with all you need and is very clean. We didn't want to leave.

We had a great stay at this cozy Airbnb. Panos allowed us to come quite a bit earlier than check in and greeted us very warmly, he even gave us fresh eggs! The house itself was beautiful, the surroundings were quiet and peaceful with a magnificent view. It had all you could need. You can easily drive to many sites and restaurants. We would happily stay again.

Excellent! We had a great week at Katerina's place. The house is very nice, in a peaceful environment. The garden is splendid. The interior was impeccable: everything is clean. Kitchen is convenient and well-stocked with cooking utensils. The air conditioning and washing machine are highly appreciated. The location is convenient because it's close to Kissamos but quiet, and on the way to the southern beaches. Katerina was easily reachable. It was perfect!

The place was peaceful and spotless. Clive is very kind and wonderful, made us feel welcome and at home, and gave us so many good recommendations. The view from the little terrace is beautiful - perfect spot to relax during any part of the day. The little house is cute, lovely and equipped with (literally) everything you may need.
