Smoking friendly holiday rentals in Gournes Gouvon

Amazing place, Amazing people ❤️

The house is very close to the next small village which offers shops and restaurant. The area is very quite and the place perfect for families. Thanks a lot to Markos and the whole family who is very helpful and great host

The apartment is really good and Niko responds quickly if you need anything. The whirlpool is good and was already warm. I would recommend the place for anyone.

The place is very nice and the sea is right in front of the terrace. During our stay, we were in the approach path of the airport, which did not bother us. Our hosts were very helpful and also ordered a taxi to the airport for my grandma. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Incredible place to stay. Everything is so clean and modern. Thank you to the host for the breakfast foods provided and even some red wine! The stay was wonderful and comfortable. The host also managed to let me and my boyfriend check in an hour and a half earlier than we should have. We were exhausted from out travels and really grateful. 10/10 stay would recommend. Only negative is when anyone is leaving their apartment its very audible and feels like someone is trying to open your door instead. But for my partner and I that wasn’t such a big issue.

The place is really super nice and lovingly decorated, everything necessary and what you spontaneously need was available and the central location with 5min to the city center was also very great. I'd love to come back☺️

The stay was great. the apartment is really only a few minutes from the beach (on foot)! The place (Stalis) itself is very beautiful and has a lot to offer, as does the little kiosk right below the apartment. John is always very friendly and helpful. Thank you for everything!

Very good little studio, I was able to settle there for a month to enjoy the bay and work remotely. No surprises, as everywhere in Crete, everyone is very accurate and reliable.

From the moment we booked we had great communication with Vasilis and Magdalena. On arrival we felt at home. The quality of accommodation was exceptional, just like being at home, the kitchen particular was fully equipped. Everything was to a highest standard. When we locked ourselves out they responded very quickly. The house itself is situated in a perfect place to really feel part of the local community, within a short walk of supermarkets, shops, restaurants in the main square. Archannes gives you the chance to experience Greek hospitality at its best. As we visit Archannes regularly, this will be our first choice of accommodation from now on. A big thank you to Vasilis and Magdalena, the best hosts.

Linda is a very helpful, generous and friendly landlady. Communication was always quick and helpful. The apartment is exactly as described and perfectly located for trips to Heraklion, the Lassithi Plateau or the beach. We felt very comfortable and can highly recommend the accommodation.

We felt comfortable in the apartment. Communication with Nikos worked very well. Downtown is a short walk away, as is the airport with local bus lines.

The 2nd time we stayed with Christina. We felt very welcome again and at home. Our own cottage just outside the city center, near the beach: easily walkable or by city bus.

We had a lovely week at this place, beautiful views of Heraklion and the sea. The host is very responsive, we even had a small basket when we arrived with breakfast and sandwiches, very nice when you arrive straight from the airport.

Korina's apartment in Kato Gouves is very spacious, bright, well-furnished, complete with all needs and very comfortable. The strength is undoubtedly the beautiful terrace where you can dine and spend unforgettable evenings in total relaxation. The surrounding area is quite quiet, ideal for families, well-stocked with all necessities: shops, supermarkets, pharmacies and many tavernas. Kato Gouves is located on a sandy coast: the beach closest to Korina's apartment is equipped with sun loungers and umbrellas and the sea is very nice and quite low, it degrades gently and is ideal for young children. On the neighboring beaches there are long shores of wonderful red sand, mostly wild, where you can practice the different water sports. Korina is a very kind and friendly innkeeper, which I recommend: she is always available and responds in a very short time for any need.

We had the pleasure of spending our vacation in this cozy accommodation in a charming, quiet village in Crete. The location in the mountains offers a peaceful atmosphere that was good for our relaxation, away from tourism. The place itself was extremely practical and well-equipped. The cozy decor made us feel comfortable. The tranquility of the surroundings was simply heavenly – ideal for escaping the stress of everyday life. To explore the surroundings and the many beautiful sights, a car is important. So you can fully enjoy the authentic Cretan culture and breathtaking nature. Overall, I highly recommend this place! A perfect place for those looking for tranquility and coziness in a natural and mountainous environment. Thank you very much for the hospitality and great communication!

Very comfortable two bedrooms. Fantastic location right on the shore with their own access to the water. A lot of good restaurants with in a walking distance.

the place was very nice and Maria was very hospitable. Her mom gave us delicious homemade cookies. The house looked as if someone is still living there. there were personal photos and what seemed like personal items. looked a lot like a "home". We had a lovely time. thank you Maria.

We really enjoyed being guest at Dimitris place. The apartment is very cosy and welcoming. The kitchen was very well equipped (oil, vinegar, spices, sugar, coffee).

María was amazing and transparent about the house. Everything has perfect and expected. Thank you Maria

Amazing stay, comfortable clean place! Very welcoming. The welcome treats, fruit, crackers, jams, water were a nice touch. Sometimes it’s the little things that make the difference. Comfy bed. Place had everything you need to live. Many grocery stores within walking distance. Town square right around the corner. Host was super kind, accommodating and helpful. Bed is a double so mainly for one. But work space and wifi was perfect! Lived here for a month and if it wasn’t booked I would have stayed longer! Thank you for a great stay!!

We had a lovely stay at Sofia and her father Georgios' apartment - we particularly enjoyed the 2 balconies and the great location for the city centre. Good view over similar height buildings all around on three sides (5 floors with small lift). There was a delay replying to messages 2wks before (important as wanted to confirm they knew we were due to arrive late) but once that was sorted Georgios was lovely, meeting and chatting to us even though we arrived at midnight and providing a baby pram and cot. The apartment was as described and well looked after, though some doors were hard to shut, both bedroom black-out blinds bit stuck (so light) and some fittings from the 70s. It would have been good to have some bottled water on arrival (as we didn't want to drink tap water) but lots of condiments, shower gel, washing machine etc provided. A few mosquitos, initially none, after we watered the plants (in Oct) but good aircon in 3 rooms. It was good value and I would book again.

My partner and i picked this apartment as it was quiet enough from the hubub of the inner city but near enough to walk to the major sites. Anna looked after us and was regularly on hand even helping with car hire. Anna even offered to take my partner to the hospital as soon as she found out that she had hurt herself in a gorge and when the Nespresso pods were getting low, new ones were dropped off in minutes. Perfect host, leaving a warm feeling to our Cretan adventure.

Very functional and clean house. The host was very friendly and responsive Thanks!

the house matches the listing, indeed in reality it is even more spacious, beautiful outdoor spaces on the front and back, cool in the evening there is no need for air conditioning. the location is convenient to the main road that crosses Crete and Heraklion, but remains out of the chaos of the city in a super quiet location. despite not having met the host it is as if he had been there with us, on our arrival we found to welcome us walnuts and honey, typical sweets, chocolate, jam, fruit, beer, wine, raki and water. really a warm welcome. the house has everything you could need. the thought found on the stairs the last day completed an already beautiful experience. I therefore recommend the accommodation to anyone who wants to have a quiet base in Crete.
