Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Istro

Theodora’s apartment is hidden gem in Agios Nikolaos. During our stay we realized, there is no better location for families with small kids. It’s right next to beach bar with great beach, in our opinion best within the city and there is even kids playground right next to it. You have 6-7 great local restaurants within 5mins walk + 2 grocery shops. Location is very quiet. Apartment is very well equipped with all you need for shorter or even longer stay (we stayed 1month). Theodora was very friendly, responsive and helpful with anything we needed. We can only recommend her and her apartment to anyone who wants to enjoy perfect vacation. Efcharisto Theodora 👍🏻

Pasiphae House was something out of a dream! It was beautifully designed in the traditional Crete Village homes style. The location is isolate in the mountains, but amongst a great community of people. We were greeted by Yianna and Koula that gave us the walk through of the house, and we're always in constant communication. Ioanna supplied us with a long list of things to do and try in the area which we took full advantage of. Overall it was a beautiful stay and would highly recommend.

We had a great stay Everything was as described They were great hosts the villa was modern, clean and everything was there we needed. A toaster and microwave could be added to the kitchen, but tk he honest what made our stay was ‘ rocky’ We miss him We loved him and the host was so wonderful like ‘ Rocky’ Thank you for having us stay and highly recommended and appreciate all you did for us X X

Having stayed in the area before, a quiet location was the most important aspect for me along with easy access to the beaches and a short walk into Hersonnisos. I couldn't have wished for a better location. The apartment was quiet with little traffic noise, compact and clean. The nearest beach was just a few minutes walk away with cafes and restaurants next to the beach. Hersonnisos itself was about 15 mins easy walk. The garden was a perfect spot for some sunbathing on those lazy days when you didn't want to leave comforts of home. It was an ideal suntrap. I didn't need anything from George on my 10 days, staying at Blue Coast Gardens -Juniper. but he was within easy reach with a whole host of helpful numbers and contacts made available, should have needed to contact him. It was great having a large comfortable double bed with good quality bedding and Aircon if it got too hot at night. All the equipment provided was in great working order, the apartment spotlessly clean. Loved it!!

Nikoleta is an incredibly kind person & a great communicator. The space, a short walk from Knossos Palace, is magical, comfortable and full of art. With the best stocked kitchen I have encountered in an Airbnb. Book it, you will be so pleased you did.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Manoli’s! The house was stunning, nestled in a beautiful village that made our two-night stay even more special. The property was fully equipped with everything we needed, making it feel like a home away from home. The host was excellent, maintaining great communication. We also loved the nearby restaurant, which was superb and added to the overall experience. We truly had a great time and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway!

We had an amazing stay in Agios Ioannis. The house is beautiful, clean, calm, with beautiful views and a great garden. Perfect location to escape tourism and enjoy the mountains. We highly recommend and hope to visit again!

We had a lovely stay at Mapia's home, everything was what we were expecting with the added bonus of meeting Mapia's parents and other members of extended family. They were all available if we had any problems (we didn't) but not intruding at all. George another family member, introduced himself and we could go to him if we had any questions. A lovely relaxing holiday, thank you Mapia 😊

The pictures don’t do this view justice. It’s breathtaking! The home is gorgeous and the outdoor space is wonderful. It was too cold for us to swim but we still enjoyed time at the beach. Most of the immediate area was already shut down for the season during our stay but there is a lovely area about a mile walk away. We spent a lot of time there enjoying the coffee shops and restaurants. The house and rooms were fantastic and there was more than enough space for everyone to relax. The host was amazing and went above and beyond to help us when we left some glasses at a restaurant. Thank you so much for a great stay!!

Quiet private paradise a quick drive from sitia center. Well located, high in the mountain but was easy to drive up. super confortable bed and amazing breakfast for 9€ in the morning. i would stay here again anytime

Wer Ruhe und Entspannung sucht, ist hier genau richtig. Urlaub abseits des Tourismus in den kretischen Bergen. Wir haben vor allem die Outdoor-Küche und den Pool sehr genossen. Im September ist es allerdings auf dem Berg schon deutlich kühler als an der Küste. Da ein Auto aber ohnehin unbedingt notwendig ist, konnten wir an windigen oder bewölkten Tagen prima an die Strände ausweichen. Konstantinos hat uns auf Nachfrage tolle Tipps gegeben und wir haben 2x eine kostenlose Reinigung angeboten bekommen. Klare Empfehlung!

Unser Aufenthalt bei Martin war perfekt. Das Apartment ist großzügig, sehr gepflegt und man hat vom Balkon aus einen fantastischen Meerblick. Die Anlage liegt sehr ruhig der Garten drumherum, sehr schön bepflanzt. Rosie, die Ansprechpartnerin kümmert sich rührend um alles und gibt gute Tipps. Wir haben drei wunderschöne Tage Terrasse, Pool und Meer genossen und die wunderschöne Gegend erkundet. Vielen Dank für alles, wir werden gerne wiederkommen. Kirsten und Heinrich

I would give this place 10 stars if I could. If you aren’t sure if you should stay here or not, I promise you will love the place. It’s beautiful and the host was there to help me and answer questions. He even came to meet me when I got lost so I could follow him to the house! The inside of the house is absolutely gorgeous. The host left us inside enough food, snacks, and beverages to last a week, which was such a pleasant surprise. I recommend renting a car as access to the city is not within walking distance but even in the neighborhood there are two small restaurants and a little convenience store practically right outside the gates of the house. Heraklion is fun and Crete is a beautiful place to rent a car and visit sites. Even balos beach is doable in one day from there if you plan ahead. Then there are other beaches much closer and easier like Voulisma to the east. Or you can take a beautiful drive through the mountains and eat a great with w a view. Much to do! House is perfect!

Das Haus liegt ruhig auf einem Hügel oberhalb des Ortes. Man ist ungestört und hat eine tolle Aussicht von der Terrasse und dem Garten. Allerdings war es beim ersten Mal schwierig, den richtigen Weg zu finden. Wir sind jedoch auch spät angekommen und es war schon stockdunkel. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Wir haben mit 5 Erwachsenen phantastische erholsame 2 Wochen in Alexandros Villa verbracht. Die Villa ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man sich für einen komfortablen Urlaub wünscht. Wir haben uns von Beginn an wohlgefühlt. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir die herausragende Lage der Villa. Der Blick gerade vom oberen Balkon auf die Berge ist atemberaubend. Mit einer Sitzmöglichkeit würde der Balkon noch einladender sein, um den einen oder anderen Sonnenuntergang genießen zu können. Alexandros ist ein wunderbarer Gastgeber. Er hat uns persönlich vom Flughafen abgeholt, half uns beim Transport der Gepäckstücke und begleitete uns zur Villa. Er gab uns wertvolle Tips zum Erkunden der Insel und war jederzeit für uns erreichbar. Das gab uns ein gutes Gefühl. Wir Können die Villa von Alexandros uneingeschränkt empfehlen.

Eine Perle und ein schöner Rückzugsort im Süden von Kreta. Die Villa verfügt über alles was das Herz begehrt, ein wunderschöne Aussicht, Pool und eine moderne Küche, die jedes Herz eines Hobby Kochs höher schlagen lässt. Das morgen und abendliche Bad im Pool mit der Aussicht werde ich vermissen. Da es fast keine Lichtverschmutzung hat, sieht man ein Sternenschauspiel und die Milchstrasse von blossem Auge. Einsame Strände sind mit dem Auto innert 30 Minuten sehr gut erreichen, somit ist ein Auto sehr empfehlenswert. Muss kein SUV sein. Sam ist jederzeit erreichbar und kommuniziert sehr schnell. Desweiteren steht er oder Lefteris mit Tips und Ratschlägen jederzeit zur Seite. Sam und Anel sind mehr als Super-Hosts und ich kann ihr Villa zu 200% empfehlen.

We absolutely loved this villa, Mania very kindly greeted us at Midnight as we had a late flight, and yes the reviews are right, she arrived with the most amazing moussaka and even made a vegetarian one. Mania was always available for any advice/recommendations and managed the tricky combination of being present but not intrusive. There was also a really thoughtful welcome gift of homemade food waiting for us. The kitchen was really well equipped, and super clean, we ate in a lot and enjoyed dinners on the covered terrace. We loved the pool, the kids especially, we spent a lot of time in the pool as it was very hot. The beds were comfy, the rooms all have their own bathroom, and terraces, there was lots of thoughtful touches throughout. The garden is beautiful and I don't think we managed to sit in all the different seating areas in the week. The winner for me was the decor, it was so beautiful, it was like staying in house in a Home Decor magazine. We will definitely come back.

The is a family house, simple, pleasent and authentic. The natural surroundings are amazing. The silence is incredible. Meni and Andreas, the owners, are very nice people and we felt the love they invested in every detail. Thanks 🙏

Liebe Kallia, Danke dir noch mal, dass du uns in deinem zauberhaften Haus am Ende der Welt hast wohnen lassen. 😊 Wir haben die Zeit bei dir sehr genossen. Wer eine sehr ruhige Lage in der Nähe des Meeres sucht, ist hier bestens aufgehoben. In Sitia findet man viele Geschäfte und Restaurants. Ein Lidl ist etwa 20 Minuten entfernt. Danke für alles. Liebe Grüße Florian

Wir hatten schöne ruhige Tage im Kelari Cottage :-) Die Unterkunft hat alles was wir brauchten und das Bett war sooo bequem! Die Wanderung nach Pefki durch die Schlucht lohnt sich sowas von, danach solltet ihr unbedingt in Pefki bei Maria essen - köstlich! Die Gegend ist hübsch, im März noch sehr menschenleer und verschlafen. Wir würden wiederkommen!

It was my second time at Manolis’ place and I love it. It’s one of most magic places I know on this planet and Manoils and his parents are always very friendly and helpful. The kitchen is very well equipped and the apartment very cosy and bright. Especially in autumn I like this area and the balcony because it’s very calm and relaxed - you are very near the ocean. Like last time Manolis mum prepared some dinner for me and the fridge was full of food ❤️. Unfortunately there was some strong wind during my 4 weeks there and so I had some power outages and wifi / fon connection outages. Manolis did his very best and was very helpful to get it fixed as soon as possible.

Nuestra estancia ha sido un regalo de paz y tranquilidad en un apartamento independiente con su propia rerraza y barbacoa dentro de la finca. Nos sentimos como en casa. Todo estaba limpísimo y encontramos algunos extras en la cocina (agua, cerveza, café...) que agradecimos mucho. Mel y Micchael son fantásticos anfitriones, encantadores, amables y respetuosos. Nos facilitaron un compendio de buenas recomendaciones de la zona este de Creta y también todo lo que necesitábamos. La piscina compartida siempre estuvo disponible para nosotros, y los gatitos nos han enamorado. Estamos muy agradecidos con Mel y Micchael, les deseamos lo mejor. Si volvemos al este de Creta desde luego que repetiremos!

Όλα όταν τέλια! Δεν ξέρω από που να ξεκινήσω... Με την βοήθεια της Χριστίνας (η οποία μάς υποδέχτηκε με πολύ καλοσύνη) φτάσαμε στο σπίτι, όλα ήταν πεντακάθαρα, η κουζίνα ήταν πλήρες εξοπλισμένη για να μπορέσει ο καθένας να μαγειρεύει σαν στο σπίτι του. και πραγματικά έτσι ήταν για εμάς... Πολύ ωραίες παραλίες σε κοντινές αποστάσεις. Ήταν η καλύτερες διακοπές ever... Ευχαριστούμε πολύ Χριστίνα και Θανάση για τη ζέστη υποδοχή, για τα φρούτα και όλα τα άλλα....

Wir waren zum dritten Mal bei Myrwin und seiner Frau zu Gast. Die Ferienwohnung ist gleichbleibend schön, die Unterkunft ist einfach, sauber und wunderschön. Myrwin hatte frisches Obst und leckeres Tiramisu für uns bereit gestellt. Der Weg durch den Olivenhain ist vor allem nachts immer wieder ein Erlebnis. Im Ort sind einige gute Lokale und auch ein Minimarkt. Alle sind sehr freundlich. Wir kommen bestimmt noch einmal hier her.
