Family-friendly vacation rentals in Heraklion

Wir waren acht Frauen, die eine Woche in der Villa Rodea verbracht haben. Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit, der Ausblick ist wundervoll und wir hatten eine unkomplizierte Betreuung durch das Komos-Team. Wir kommen wieder.

Truly beautiful villa! The photos simply do not do this place justice - this wonderful ‘wow’ factor home & surroundings are gorgeous. My family felt immediately at home & relaxed. Villa was clean, well stocked with equipment & our hosts Eleni & Marinos were lovely - both on hand when required & respectful of our privacy. We received a welcome package which was very thoughtful. Filter machine meant no need for bottled water. We walked up to Old Hersonissos a couple of times & enjoyed some lovely food & a little shopping in a vibrant atmosphere. Also we went shopping down in Limenas Chersonisou. We enjoyed BBQ at our villa, eating outside during a full super moon! 🌖 The mountain, the sea view & the sunsets are absolutely stunning. The outdoor gazebo area is fantastic for chilling day or night, with cold drinks (or ice creams) immediately on hand from the outdoor fridge. A/C great for all different areas, but the breeze was just as nice sometimes in the main area. Highly recommend 😊

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne und sonnige Oktoberwoche in der Unterkunft von Tasos. Die Wohnung ist so wie auf den Bildern beschrieben. Wir haben es sehr genossen, dass auch auf der Vorderseite des Hauses eine kleine Terrasse war. Somit hatte man morgens und Abends Sonne. Toll waren auch die Empfehlungen von Tasos. Besonders die Taverne auf dem Berg in Rogida war sehr zu empfehlen.

Orgon Farm is a lovely, serene getaway. Located 30min south of Heraklion, it was a perfect central location. We enjoyed the baskets left every other morning by Manolis and his charming farm. We dream of staying here again!

The villa is fantastic. Beautiful pool area And an amazing outdoor kitchen with everything you could ever need! The team were so attentive and always on hand for any questions and Michael was so helpful throughout our stay. They were also brilliant for our two little ones as well. Although there are a lot of steps, it’s set up really well for kids. High chairs and cots are provided, an amazingly well stocked play room and plates, bowls, cups and cutlery for them as well. Location is fantastic as well, very close to Heraklion and the airport but it feels so peaceful and secluded. Very much recommend staying!

Anestis was extremely helpful and pleasant and the place is amazing! Great view and sound of the water which was very relaxing. Close to a great beach town which was walkable.

Stella and her family was friendly and very helpful while we were staying at her families beautiful villa. The villa is stunning and clean. It has all you need while you stay at the villa. Would highly recommend staying at this accommodation. Likely to return in the future! The peacocks add to this beautiful location looking over the mountains of Crete.

Stella's Home was the most positive Airbnb experience I've ever had (and I've had some really lovely ones). The place is beautiful and the views are some of the best I've ever seen with the beach being only a 6 minute walk away. Stella was also an exceptional host. She stocked the fridge with some complementary groceries which made for a really positive start to our trip, especially after a day of traveling. It was also one of the most thoughtful things a host has done for one of my stays. Stella was also very communicative, checking in to make sure everything was going well for us and if we needed anything. The hot tub was amazing, the house was spotless and comfortable, the description of the space completely accurate. 5 days was not enough for us here and if I ever make it back to Crete, I will definitely be staying here again. Highly recommend!

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 🙏

Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt in der Unterkunft. Der große Garten und die tolle Aussicht auf die Bucht von Heraklion waren der Hammer. Das Haus selber war ein wenig kleiner als erwartet, besonders mit zwei fast erwachsenen Kindern. Die Oberflächen der Küche hätten sauberer sein können und die Spülmaschine war leider defekt. Das waren auch schon die einzigen Kritikpunkte. Jannis hat sich rührend um uns gekümmert und immer wieder Kontakt aufgenommen. Das Haus liegt traumhaft am Ende einer Sackgasse und Google kennt den Weg dorthin nicht, aber die Wegbeschreibung von Jannis und Evi ist perfekt. Ein kleiner Tipp: ein Auto ist zwingend erforderlich! Alles in allem war es ein grossartiger Urlaub.

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans l’appartement de Christina. L’appartement est très bien équipé et on se sent comme à la maison. Christina est très réactive et nous a proposé des adresses de restaurants dans les environs. Encore merci pour tout.

Very nice place, as described by the owner.

Nous avons passé 4 jours dans ce logement qui est bien plus qu'un simple "airb&b". Ici, le cadre est fantastique, dans les champs d'olivier, hyper central pour visiter le nord de l'île, à proximité de Karteros où vous trouverez quelques commerces de proximité. En plus de toutes ces qualités, vous trouverez ici l'âme d'une vraie maison de famille où vous ne pourrez que bien vous sentir.... spacieux, cosy, propre et très bien équipé tout y est parfait. Un grand merci aux hôtes qui ont tout fait que ces quelques jours se déroulent au mieux.

das war ein wunderbare Aufenthalt. Das Haus ist traditionelle aus Stein und Holz, innerhalb Bergen und Olivenbäume. Das hat ein Gefühl von Frieden und Naturfreunde gegeben. das war nur ein bisschen lang von Stadt etwas 25min zu erreichen. man braucht unbedingt ein Auto. das haus 100% privat mit einem schönen Pool. Wenn man abend nach Hause vom Ausflüge kommt, dann beruhigt sich in pool innerhalb der Bergen und Olivenbäume ist traumhaft. der Gastgeber ist sehr freundlich. 10/10 für mich. ich würde das empfehlen aber nicht lange Aufenthalt.

We stayed for 4 nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. The location is in city with everything being in a walkable distance. It is super quiet even being close to a busy road. Surprising was that the apartment was quite cold and cooled down even during the day. With the Aircon one could easily warm it back up though so not Problem at all. Athina was very responsive and gave us lots of suggestions either vie the Airbnb Chat or through printouts in the flat. There are many eateries close by and the kitchen though a bit old provides enough to cook a small meal. We can highly recommend staying there!

I would recommend this Property and our Host. Everything was as indicated in listing. But, our host went above and beyond with his quick response to our questions and perfect recommendations for restaurants and things to see. When he stopped by for a casual visit we felt like old friends and we are lucky enough to have a new friend now!! His wife was kind enough to make us zucchini patties that we delicious! thank you!

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!!

Our stay at Mama La Roosa Villa was a dream. Petros was an outstanding host who went above and beyond to ensure that we had a relaxing stay in Agia Pelagia. The villa was stunning - it had gorgeous ocean views from every angle, beautiful landscaping, and a modern design with every amenity needed for our trip. The villa felt quiet, private, and safe. We enjoyed watching the sunrise each morning. We enjoyed the pool and backyard dining area so much that we decided to skip the beach! The warm hospitality from Petros is what made the stay - he arranged reservations at the best local restaurants and wineries. We felt that we were able to truly experience Greece thanks to our stay with Petros at Mama La Roosa Villa. We wish we could stay longer and can’t wait to return. Thank you Petros for an unforgettable experience!

Nous sommes extrêmement ravis de notre séjour chez Georges et sa famille. Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été chaleureusement accueillis par des hôtes d’une grande gentillesse. Leur bienveillance a vraiment fait la différence, et nous nous sommes sentis comme chez nous tout au long de notre séjour. Le logement a grandement contribué à la qualité de nos vacances. Il est idéalement situé, ce qui nous a permis de profiter pleinement de toutes les activités à proximité. De plus, les tarifs sont très attractifs, offrant un excellent rapport qualité-prix. Nous recommandons vivement ce logement et n’hésiterons pas à revenir ! Ευχαριστώ πολύ 🧿

Excellent location, and the villa was very spacious and quiet. Maria was excellent with great recommendations and always available to help. :)

We have enjoyed our stay , the host is very helpful , the room is clean , it looks exactly like the photos , the view is fabulous. You need a car to move around , go to the beach and visit the city. I recommend

Our stay in Crete with Evi & Giorgos was flawless. They gave us a very warm welcome, greeted us personally, despite an unplanned delay. They explained everything to us in detail, gave us tips on the surrounding area, told us exciting stories and were always quick to help us out. The villa is beautifully furnished with attention to detail. The kitchen is superbly equipped. The two bedrooms consisted of a double bed and two bunk beds. The beds were perfectly adequate and very cosy, you just shouldn't have any snoring flatmates 😄 The terrace and pool are super nice and great for relaxing. We were lucky that the second studio was not booked when we visited. So we had the whole terrace to ourselves. The beach is just a 20-minute walk away, and and there are cafés (tip: Mr Bean) and small mini-markets along the way. However, it is generally worth hiring a car. Ask Evi & Giorgos, if you need one 😉 In summary, our stay was worth every penny and we would definitely come back!

Hôte très agréable et serviable. Maison et piscine chauffée conformes aux attentes.

Our family had a truly amazing holiday at Giorgos villa. so clean, well equipped, comfortable and fun. The pool was beautiful. We spent a lot of time in and around it. The beds were comfortable and clean. The two bathrooms and extra toilet were so convenient for our family, and the hot water and water pressure was great. Giorgos is the perfect host. nothing was too much trouble. the communication between us was spot on. The Villa made our first trip to Crete one to remember. we will definitely be booking again.
