Vacation rentals with beach access in Makry Gialos

Poppy was amazing. So helpful, flexible and very friendly. The apartment is wonderful. Beautiful views and great location for the town and the beach. Perfect for two people, clean, modern and very comfortable. Poppy helped us with everything we needed. Would highly recommend and we will definitely be staying again. Thank you Poppy 😊

Thank you so much Stella for this wonderful stay and your help with your family. I hope to see you soon.

Little paradise, cured with love, feels like a home.

What a beautiful and special place! We had gorgeous views for sunrises/sunsets and it was a more quiet/relaxing place stop for our extended trip in Crete. We experienced quite a bit while we were there-Spinalonga, Elounda, Kolokithia beach (go early at 7-8 before the boats come in), Agio Nikolas(get the goat’s milk frozen yogurt) and we hiked to the windmill farm(8-10 miles) and went to the Plaka beach(bring water shoes). Lily was so helpful and pleasant and the place was perfect for our needs! Oh and we loved the food at Porta and Carob Tree;they seem touristy but the staff were pleasant (not pushy) and the food was fantastic. I hope we can come back one day!! ❤️❤️❤️

Very beautiful, large traditional Greek house. And an extraordinary garden with breathtaking views. With small hammock rest areas, sun loungers. Beautiful outdoor dining area. And a very warm and attentive family welcome.

It was wonderful! The apartment was easy to reach by car. Even when entering the property, the view does not disappoint! Maria was always available, was available for any questions and the apartment is simply an absolute dream! Clean, a lovingly landscaped courtyard, a warm welcome. I felt completely comfortable and the hot tub was the absolute highlight! I would come back anytime and highly recommend it. 😊

We had a lovely stay in this well equipped apartment.

We had a fantastic time in Michael's apartment. We didn't lack anything. Shopping and restaurants are nearby. We were happy and satisfied. Thanks Michail!

Very private, no noise from neighbors. We hardly heard any noise from the traffic as the apartment is not directly on the road. We stayed for a week and spent much time on the incredible balcony: you can always find a space in the shade there. We loved the Galini beach nearby. only downside is that you have to walk for 200 meters along the road, as there is no footpath. There is a private beach closer by, but not everyone will be willing to climb down. It's doable for most people, but it is no walk in the park. If you like solitude, or if the Galini beach is too crowded, then certainly try to go the private beach. The WiFi in the apartment and on the balcony is good enough to stream video to one laptop. We had a tremendous time and certainly will come back some time in the future

We had the best time staying at the apartment. We were two adults and a child and it was perfect for us. Everything was exactly as in the pictures and the apartment is even bigger than I expected. Especially the beautiful patio. The small kitchen is well stocked and we had everything we needed. One can hear the road, so just bring your earplugs if you think it may bother you. There are mosquitoes nets and shades/curtains on all the windows which allowed us to keep them open at nights and sleep longer in the mornings. Other than the apartment itself, Pinelopi is the best host I have ever met on Airbnb. She took care of everything we needed, even before we asked. We felt right at home with her and we're very sad when it was time to go. We will always be happy to come and stay here again!

Elpida, a dream house, definitely recommended. Not only the location and the view are sensational, but also the house itself. We (married couple 63/61) were allowed to enjoy Angelika's unobtrusive and warm hospitality in May 2025 and had a relaxing week in or above the beautiful village of Mochlos. We have nothing to complain about, on the contrary - we have rarely found such a great place to stay. Perfect furnishings and very well-equipped kitchen, always a shady spot and very pleasant insect protection. The steep driveway up the mountain is also no problem after the first exercise. The scent of the plants is simply wonderful. Dear Angelika, thank you for sharing Elpida with strangers, we will be happy to come back to you and Koko and are already looking forward to it, best regards, Anne Dietz and Stefan Schmädeke from Hanover

This place is very remote, but with 50m from the sea it is really a magical place. Unfortunately, we only spent 5 nights there, but would have preferred to stay longer. House is not so special, but the location absolutely is. With 100% privacy, you are 50 m from the sea with only a few houses nearby that are certainly not permanently occupied. With Sitia 15m away, you are also back in the inhabited world, with all amenities available. In short, highly recommended if you like peace and space. Kallia is really a treasure, the house is tip top, and she even cooked the first night for us because we hadn't done any shopping yet. Will definitely come back

The Wave House is perfectly situated to swim at the beach just in front of the apartment. Loved the sun beds and area in from of the Wave House so you have a space to relax and enjoy the water views.

We had a great time at Pinelopi's relaxing apartment by the beach! She gave us lots of great suggestions of places to visit and was very kinda and friendly. There are lots of great beaches nearby. We enjoyed meeting Toby the dog and having Sissi the cat hang out with us each morning. thank you again!

This was our favourite stay of the trip. The place is idyllic, with a private swimming area only a few steps away. The house is decorated tastefully and gives a really nice indoor-outdoor feeling with the large patio and sliding doors. The kitchen is extremely well-stocked with everything you might need to cook, including well-sharpened knives! Manolis brought us some fresh vegetables from the farm, which were delicious. Everything about the place is thoughtful and we loved our stay there. It is ideal for a trip where you want to spend a lot of time relaxing at the house and hanging out, it is so nice we barely wanted to leave!

We enjoyed our accommodation very much during these few days! The accommodation is clean, functional, very well-equipped and the host is very responsive. What can I say about the two beautiful exteriors! The large roof terrace for resting in the shade in complete privacy with sea views. The small terrace in front of the house is incredible, with your feet in the water. The house is in a very good location, a few meters from the city center and the bar next door is a real asset for having a drink or a meal from our own terrace. A little gem just like the city of Mochlos.

We just stayed for one night. It was a great stay and the apartment has everything that you might need, coffee machine, washing machine etc. We were welcomed with some Raki and bottled water. Internet worked well. Loved it

I can not recommend this place enough!!! One of the best places I have ever stayed in . Just a stunning view. We had our Airbnb cleaned twice which was so nice. Mary was amazing. We definitely will be back again. Thank you so much again

Iannis and his mother welcomed us kindly and gave us fruit and vegetables. Olive oil was also available. The location was good for exploring the great bay around the Lasithi area by car. We would definitely come back.

This is such a great place to stay in AN. Eleftheria met us on arrival and made us feel like family. Their property is pristine and with great lounge, kitchen and dining overlooking the marina. In 5 mins walk you are wherever you want to get to in the local area. There is a sheltered beach within walking distance. A gorgeous town and well appointed place to stay. Absolutely recommend

We had an amazing time. Manolis is very helpful and friendly. He gave us some great recommendations of beaches to go to and restaurants. The apartment is in a great location. It has everything you need and is really nicely decorated and very clean. If we end up in Agios Nikolaos again we will definitely stay there again

Wonderful. Property exactly as described. Alexandra was a wonderful host. We were spoilt with extras-cakes, a sun hat, toiletries, towels, fruit , tea & coffee I highly recommend staying at Alexandra’s and Maria. X

Lovely apartment, very well equipped in a great location. Antonia our host was brilliant and responded immediately to questions we had. Welcome gift of food/drink was very much appreciated.

Nice view from the terrace, with a lot of shade from the trees. The private beach is just incredible. Perfect spot to go for daytrips to discover east Crete. A car is needed as you are up on the hill – as it is called Ferma Hill Apartments and walking up and down to Ferma by foot can be quite dangerous at night. During windy days, Achlia beach is recommended, five- minutes-drive and suddenly all you feel is just a tiny breeze. Anna is always helpful, thank you very much! Make sure to visit Takis animal shelter in Ierapetra while you are staying there! Appointments need to be booked in advance on his website, most amazing animal lover and person!
