Villa holiday rentals in Almyrida

A Slice of Paradise – Five Stars All Around! We had the most incredible time staying at this large and stunning villa in the Loutraki/Chania area. The property is nothing short of breathtaking, with lush, beautifully maintained gardens and crystal-clear water right at your doorstep. The direct beach access was a dream—so easy and convenient—and we spent countless hours floating in the calm sea and enjoying the serene, quiet atmosphere. The views from every direction were spectacular, making it hard to leave the villa! The villa itself is exquisite, with a spacious, well-designed area for cooking and relaxing. It’s the perfect blend of luxury and comfort. Demetrios, our host, went above and beyond, offering incredible hospitality and even surprising me with a birthday cake, which made our stay all the more special. If you’re looking for a tranquil, beautiful retreat this is the place!

Villa Penelope is a beautiful place where you can spend a great time in a large group. Especially the outdoor area with a large pool is outstanding, the view over the sea is unique. Giorgos was always available within a very short time. We were even able to get to the villa earlier upon request. You need a car for activities or grocery-shopping. Thanks for everything, we would definitely come back!

Beautiful villa and pool (the water was a lovely temperature, as we paid for it to be heated). Housekeeping half way through the week was really nice. Local places to eat were great and it was very easy getting taxis into town from the cafe at the top of the hill for around €12.

Breathtaking view! The house is brand new, it corresponds exactly to the pictures shown. The pool is very large & during the day there is a perfect mix of sunny and shady spots. There are many small taverns nearby, you never had to drive far. Very clear recommendation for this villa, it is perfect & we would love to come back anytime!

Loved it! We'll definitely be back.

The listing matches the photos as well as the services / accessories. Very large living room and very nice exteriors. Well located for exploring the west of Crete. Not very nice weather during our stay in Crete. We were limited by the cold in the space which is not easy to heat. But I imagine this problem is rare in Crete. The A/C seemed to work very well and it's more often useful.

Wbu is a fantastic host and the villa is simply stunning. Wish we had more time there. Highly recommend!

Everything was fine. The house is very big, with a nice modern design and cosy at the same time. The communication with both Giorgios and the owner was fantastic. We felt very comfortable, no neighbours and quiet. The house is about 5-10 minutes from Rethymno. The pool and garden are large and very usable.

Beatiful view and nice downstairs appartment with own pool and yard. Parking lot had always room for our car. From parking lot there are deep stairs down to the appartments yard. We came late in evening and it was little bit difficult to get in without light on the appartment door. Pool was great for swimming and view fo Chania and sea bay just amazing. If you have lot of electronic devices with you, take a power strip with you. The neighborhood was peaceful and quiet during our stay in April. Really nice place to relax and enjoy life.

This was our second visit to Daphnis Villas as we enjoyed 2 years ago. Maria is an extra sweet and very accommodating host. She took care of us anytime that we needed anything. She responded very quickly and made it feel like home to us. I would not recommend staying anywhere else.

We had a wonderful stay at this peaceful and private villa with a truly spectacular ocean view. The perfect setup for our extended family (6 adults and 2 small children), offering plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjoy. The bedrooms were comfortable with en suite bathrooms. Kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to cook at home. The kids especially loved the pool and all the toys available. We enjoyed local meals at Maxis Yard (a charming spot in the nearby village with pottery and homemade food) and Fisalida, which has a stunning ocean view. Both within walking distance. Grocery shopping was easy with both Lidl and the village shops close by. Our host went above and beyond—meeting us for check-in during Easter holiday and even doing grocery shopping for us beforehand as everything was closed. He surprised us with homemade dinner of delicious moussaka and Greek salad, which made us feel so welcomed. We left feeling relaxed and very tempted to return one day.

Amazing stay! Views from the mountainside are incredible to wake up to every morning including sunrise and sunset. The view from the infinity pool was fantastic and had toys for children. The host Mr. George was always accommodating and even brought us eggs one morning :) would highly recommend

The owners were great always on hand and responded very quickly - they arranged car hire and food delivery for our arrival. Would highly recommend this property especially if you like it private - it’s a great location to travel around due to close proximity to main roads to explore along the coast or go down to the south of the island. Would recommend you hire a vehicle, there is a Lidl 5 mins away and the main town is just around 10 mins. This would be ideal for family with older children as there is a great pool and plenty of activities ie pool table / table tennis table. The property was extremely clean with plenty of towels and lovely basket with some fruit / wine on arrival - great hosts and property….

Lovely time at the villa over Easter week. Our group of nine thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The pool was amazing. We couldn’t have asked for a better host. She was so responsive and helpful. She even helped us order dinner to be delivered one night at the last minute! Highly recommend this villa!

5/5 recommend. We loved staying at Villa Ianthos. It has everything you need, and is just as described! We liked in particular the spacious outdoor area with pool, bubble bath & bbq. And the cleanliness of the whole place. Not to mention how great Panos is, he helped us alot with local recommendations and questions surrounding the villa. A car is a must as its a bit secluded, but that is the beauty of it. It comes with an unbeatable view and calmness. 8min drive to old town, super close!

We could not have had a more beautiful place to stay with beaches, restaurants close by. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool, lounge chairs & umbrellas. Early morning and evening was the perfect time to sit on the balcony and enjoy the view of the sea and boats coming in and out. We hated to leave the villa. We’d happily stay there again.

Wonderful villa in great location for family Holliday. Facilities were great and as described. The garden is beautiful and adds to the feeling of the outside space. Good shade and sun spots in the garden at all times of day. We had a lovely time exploring the local area as well as going further afield to explore Create to the full. Lots of lovely walks possible from the villa and the local beaches perfect for low key family beach safe for kids. The bedrooms were all lovely especially the master beadroom with beautiful balcony. Host was fantastic at communication and helped us with any questions we had responding promptly and efficiently to any difficulties. Would highly recommend.

The villa is a most beautiful place for a relaxed family vacation. Quiet, spacious and with all the amenities for a relaxed stay. The next town is nearby, only a few minutes away by car. The local support is excellent, very friendly, very responsive and alert. All in all, a very recommendable place.

This is the best air BnB we have stayed in. The photos do not do it justice. It is so spacious, with large bedrooms and a large living area. Plenty of storage space and a HUGE outdoor space with a massive pool. It was a stunning air BnB. Lots of amenities and extra kitchen gadgets. It has a great BBQ and outdoor eating space. The pool was a highlight and was warm despite it not being heated. Showers had lots of power, beds were comfy. Location is stunning, very peaceful and serene. Not loud at all. We didn’t mind the planes going over head, they are very infrequent. The house was so clean and clearly well looked after. You would need a car to get around Crete if staying here but a lovely tavern and local beach 10-15 min walk down the road. Stavros beach about a 5 min drive. I would absolutely stay here again, it was perfect!! Christian and Judith were amazing hosts, very responsive and gave clear instructions!

Lovely place to stay, we loved it!!! Anastasia was quick to respond and very friendly. I would stay here again on my next visit. make sure you eat at the tavern at the end of the street if staying, great food and drinks!

Unique location. The view from the villa is stunning. The villa is fully equiped, with a nice swimming pool and jacuzzi. Stavros is a charming and hospitable host. We felt welome and he had taken care of some nice delicacies. In the village is a good local foodstore and there are fine restaurants within walking distance. Try the fresh fish!

Really enjoyed our trip. House is just like the pictures, amazing pool and excellent host.

We stayed as a family of four for a week. The villa consisted a main floor with a modern, clean and well equipped kitchen, a comfortable sitting/dining room with lovely views over souda bay and towards chania. A large jacuzzi bath was also off the sitting area. The rest of this floor was three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one with a shower/ tub combo and the other a wetroom style. A further bedroom/ shower room was on the floor below via an outside staircase as well as a well equiped gym. The outside area was expansive and enough for our boys to run around. The villa also had a number of indoor and outdoor games for the boys to enjoy. But a lot of our time was spent in the heated pool! Overall, we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The villa was very clean, comfortable with stunning hilltop views. The location was close to the airport, local resturants and shops and we had food delivered to us a number of times. A special point was the kindness and helpfulness of our hosts, thank you!

Alex was an amazing host right from booking. He’s super friendly & reply’s quickly to any questions. We had the warmest welcome on check in & the property is beautiful, with gorgeous & peaceful surroundings. You have all the utensils & cutlery you need for cooking, Alex was always on hand if we needed any help with anything. I will 100% be going back & it’s not something I often do so that says a lot about Alex & his property. Highly highly recommend this place.
