House vacation rentals in Istro

The villa was just as described. Great location, walkable to the beach and close to bars and restaurants yet still private. We were able to check in early and were met by Maria’s family and all the amenities were explained well. Maria checked in with us regularly and came to clean during our stay. We even locked ourselves out and Maria was very helpful in getting us back in. Check out was also very smooth and easy. Overall a great stay and would recommend it to anyone and everyone!

This house was perfect for the four in our party, each having their own bedroom. The location was quiet and within walking distance to the beach and restaurants. Plenty of seating outside to enjoy evenings by the pool.

We had an amazing stay! The hosts are very thoughtful and always willing to help! Would definitely book again when back in Crete.

We were well received! Angelina was a very nice woman to communicate with. The first night on arrival we got dinner from her because we were delayed 24 hours and the supermarkets were not open. Villa was very clean. Only downside was the wifi in the villa. The connection was very poor and in a room you had no connection at all. After we indicated that there was no wifi, she told me it would be taken care of. After we had raised this, we were in the villa for 9 days. During that remaining time, we didn't hear back from that. The taxi that was offered to take us was also a good taxi service. And all other activities and services offered were high quality. The cleaning ladies were good and thorough in their work which made the villa well maintained. In short, the wifi was a very nice vacation experience and a very nice host.

House impeccable as in the listing, close to shops, restaurants, beaches, main road. La canée, Gorges de samaria 5 hours by car. We had a great time. Thank you.

A gem and a beautiful retreat in southern Crete. The villa has everything your heart desires, a beautiful view, pool and a modern kitchen that makes every heart of a hobby cook beat faster. I will miss the morning and evening bath in the pool with the view. Since it has almost no light pollution, you can see a starry sky and the Milky Way with the naked eye. Secluded beaches are easily accessible by car within 30 minutes, so a car is highly recommended. Doesn't have to be an SUV. Sam is available at any time and communicates very quickly. Furthermore, he or Lefteris are always available with tips and advice. Sam and Anel are more than super hosts and I can recommend their villa villa 200%.

Everything went so smoth great view nice people!!

amazing place with great views, clean pool, great amenities, 10 min drive to a very cute tourist city of Sissi. thank you!

We felt comfortable in the apartment. Communication with Nikos went very well. Downtown can be reached quickly on foot, the airport with the local bus lines as well.

very nice everything, cozy house clean Bravo.

We had such a lovely time staying at Anna and Leandros' apartment. They were very accommodating about the possibility of an early check-in, and both gave us a very warm and friendly welcome when we arrived. The apartment was very clean, comfortable and cosy, with lovely spots to sit out too. It was the perfect base to explore this side of Crete. Anna and Leandros truly are two of the nicest people we have met. They made sure we had a wonderful time in Crete, giving us lots of suggestions for family activities, places to eat and sights to visit. Thank you for making Crete such a special holiday. We hope to see you again one day, it would be so lovely to meet up if you ever visit the UK :-).

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!!

A really nice and calm place with the beach in walking distance. Manos is a really friendly and relaxed person, who welcomed us warmly. Even when we locked ourselves out of the house, he was right there. Restaurants, a local supermarket with homemade honey and very good olive oil is just 5 minutes from the apartment. Would absolutely recommend! Thank you so much, we had a really great time!

We loved Manos’s place! Everything was as shown in the pictures and him and his team were extremely friendly and accommodating. There were some issues getting water to the unit due to issues with the city supply but Manos responded immediately with fresh bottled water and kept us updated throughout the process. We couldn’t have asked for him to be more accommodating!

Great apartment with a cat who likes to cuddle, terrace overlooking the valley.

The owners of this place were amazing! They were so nice! The apartment is very clean and organized. The view is absolutely stunning from this place! Recommending everyone to stay here! Would stay here again if we ever visited!

We had a great stay with our 3 children. The house is very nice and very well located in the center next to the tavernas and the beach. Everything is done on foot and the city is semi pedestrian, very simple with children. The roof top and the living room are great! Martha also arranged me by finding me an umbrella bed when I asked her if it was possible before booking. You can go there without a second thought!

We enjoyed our stay tremendously. Thanks to a warm housing and a permanent availabilty from Eleny. The location is authentic, in the heart of a real village. Eleny gave us also many tips to maximize our East Cretan experience. A perfect host.

I've been very lucky to stay in some amazing Airbnbs in the past, but Alexis & Nicoleta's place stands out in the best way. A quirky property with the most beautiful outside space I've been in for a while, and all the amenities you'll need. The owner's hospitality is second to none, and they'll help you feel right at home. It's peaceful, clean, well-equipped, and a perfect place close to the palace and to Heraklion, while still maintaining quiet nights - I've rarely slept so well. All round amazing!

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!

Lovely place, quiet, clean. Nikos and his family are taking care of their hosts. The only downside is that there is no washing machine.

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!

This is the most special place I have ever been. These views are breathtaking. The hosts are the sweetest people ever!

great place, perfect for a familh as well. A short walk to the beach and local taverns. A short drive to Agios Nicholas with great shopping and city walking.
