Monthly Rentals in Potamies

If you're planning to visit Heraklion and its surrounding areas, staying at Maria’s place is an absolute no-brainer. Nestled in a charming hilltop village, this peaceful and beautifully restored historic stone house offers an authentic Cretan experience. The setting is serene and picturesque—perfect for anyone looking to escape the crowds and enjoy the true essence of the island. But what truly sets this place apart is Maria herself. She is the epitome of Greek hospitality—warm, welcoming, and always ready with helpful tips or a delicious homemade treat. Her kindness and care make you feel like family from the moment you arrive. Highly, highly recommend this hidden gem for an unforgettable stay near Heraklion.

Wonderful stay! The house was super clean, beautifully decorated and fully equipped. The location is quiet but close to everything we needed. Dimitris was friendly and willing to help as he always responded instantly, making us feel at home. I'm sure we'll go for it again!

Kostas and Maria were absolute gems!! Their place was amazing and my son and I enjoyed our stay very much!! It was just what we needed to get away from the hustle and bustle of our travels around Greece with gorgeous views and scenery!! If you’re considering booking I would say do it because you won’t regret it!! There are a couple of hiking places near buy but I would definitely recommend renting a car to get around because this place is in the mountains.

we stayed at this magnificent place for two months. the village is really small (200 people and 400 cats and dogs) but theres pretty much everything you need. supermarket and few restaurants/cafes. great hiking possibilities around the village with beautiful mountain views. we didnt have a car and hiked to nearby villages and the lake but would recommend it for sure. Ben was an amazing host. he really made our stay! the hospitality was out of this world!
