Villa vacation rentals in Rethymno

It was absolutely perfect. We had contact via WhatsApp before arrival, so it was no problem at all to get to the accommodation. The house is a dream, 25 minutes from the airport, the nearest tavern is 5 minutes away and highly recommended. Everything was perfectly clean. It was even wiped once during our stay and new towels were also provided. Everything you need is there, even a basic supply of food, it would satisfy the first hunger. There is absolutely nothing negative to report, we would love to come back.

We had a wonderful stay at Kitsa’s place. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, very well-equipped, and provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Communication with Kitsa was excellent – she was always helpful, quick to respond, and made sure we had everything we needed while also being very respectful of our privacy, which we truly appreciated. We felt completely at ease throughout our time there and would gladly return. Highly recommended!

Beautiful villa and pool (the water was a lovely temperature, as we paid for it to be heated). Housekeeping half way through the week was really nice. Local places to eat were great and it was very easy getting taxis into town from the cafe at the top of the hill for around €12.

Absolutely amazing place. The view is breathtaking, you can’t get enough of it and there are two large terraces to enjoy it from. The swimming pool is a nice touch too, small but the same time big enough to cool down and sunbathe next to it if you don’t feel like going to the beach. Super easy and friendly interactions with Manos and the rest of the team. Warm welcome and attention all the way through the stay. There were a lot of little, but important details that we really appreciated, such as: bottled water, some juices and fruits that were waiting for us in the fridge, as well as some local snacks and olive oil. On my birthday, a lovely greeting card and a bottle of Ouzo appeared in our villa which was also an unexpected but an excellent gesture. Everyone was really friendly and we felt truly welcomed. Many thanks to all! Although it’s only 3.5 km away from The center of Plakias, I’d definitely recommend hiring a car, as the villa is up on the hill, hence the stunning view.

We LOVED everything about this house! The house is beautiful, clean and equipped with everything you need. Eleni and Georgios are very friendly, welcoming and attentive to detail. The house is located in a great location. It's situated in a quiet neighborhood and is walking distance to one of the prettiest beaches on the island and several restaurants and shops. There is also a great grocery store just down the road. And the views! There are views from every room! The hike on the east side of the beach is spectacular with beautiful flowers and plant life and views of the water and distant mountains. Eleni and Georgios, thank you for everything! We hope that we can come back one day.

Breathtaking view! The house is brand new, it corresponds exactly to the pictures shown. The pool is very large & during the day there is a perfect mix of sunny and shady spots. There are many small taverns nearby, you never had to drive far. Very clear recommendation for this villa, it is perfect & we would love to come back anytime!

The house has been fully redecorated to a high modern day standard. It's spacious and very private, also thanks to the walled inner garden with swimming pool, and possibilities to park two cars behind an electronically operated gate. The house is clean and the beds very comfortable. Also ideal when traveling with two couples of which one has children, because one bedroom has a separate front door that is accessible from the garden (under the roof top terrace). A very nice local restaurant and a supermarket are within walking distance. I highly recommend staying here!

Lovely villa that completely exceeded our expectations. We stayed here with 2 families (4 adults and 4 children). We were met by a super enthusiastic host who explained everything clearly and welcomed us with some typical Greek local products. The house is equipped with all comforts. Large bedrooms with their own bathrooms and hammam. Spacious kitchen equipped with all the necessary kitchen appliances (including prof. coffee machine) The icing on the cake was the lovely outdoor area with (heated) pool, sitting area, dining area, bbq and views of the Agia Galini bay and surroundings. We stayed here at the beginning of spring and we were very happy with our decision to opt for a house where the pool was heated. From this location we made a trip to Matala and the palm beach of Preveli. We might have been able to do more, but didn't get the kids out of the pool😁. For anyone who is still in doubt: don't, just book!

A Slice of Paradise – Five Stars All Around! We had the most incredible time staying at this large and stunning villa in the Loutraki/Chania area. The property is nothing short of breathtaking, with lush, beautifully maintained gardens and crystal-clear water right at your doorstep. The direct beach access was a dream—so easy and convenient—and we spent countless hours floating in the calm sea and enjoying the serene, quiet atmosphere. The views from every direction were spectacular, making it hard to leave the villa! The villa itself is exquisite, with a spacious, well-designed area for cooking and relaxing. It’s the perfect blend of luxury and comfort. Demetrios, our host, went above and beyond, offering incredible hospitality and even surprising me with a birthday cake, which made our stay all the more special. If you’re looking for a tranquil, beautiful retreat this is the place!

Absolutely stunning place. Sparkling clean, very well equipped, beautiful views, short distance to sites, beaches etc. Simply an amazing experience. All you need for a luxurious holiday in the best wine region in Greece!

We were eight women who spent a week at Villa Rodea. Had an amazing time, the view is wonderful and we had an uncomplicated care by the Komos team. We'll be back.

3 weeks enjoyed the house, swimming pool and quiet area. Every week the bedding/towels were renewed and cleaned. Rapid response from the hello crete team. Also outside office hours

We had a wonderful stay at this peaceful and private villa with a truly spectacular ocean view. The perfect setup for our extended family (6 adults and 2 small children), offering plenty of space for everyone to relax and enjoy. The bedrooms were comfortable with en suite bathrooms. Kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed to cook at home. The kids especially loved the pool and all the toys available. We enjoyed local meals at Maxis Yard (a charming spot in the nearby village with pottery and homemade food) and Fisalida, which has a stunning ocean view. Both within walking distance. Grocery shopping was easy with both Lidl and the village shops close by. Our host went above and beyond—meeting us for check-in during Easter holiday and even doing grocery shopping for us beforehand as everything was closed. He surprised us with homemade dinner of delicious moussaka and Greek salad, which made us feel so welcomed. We left feeling relaxed and very tempted to return one day.

We stayed as a family of four for a week. The villa consisted a main floor with a modern, clean and well equipped kitchen, a comfortable sitting/dining room with lovely views over souda bay and towards chania. A large jacuzzi bath was also off the sitting area. The rest of this floor was three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one with a shower/ tub combo and the other a wetroom style. A further bedroom/ shower room was on the floor below via an outside staircase as well as a well equiped gym. The outside area was expansive and enough for our boys to run around. The villa also had a number of indoor and outdoor games for the boys to enjoy. But a lot of our time was spent in the heated pool! Overall, we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The villa was very clean, comfortable with stunning hilltop views. The location was close to the airport, local resturants and shops and we had food delivered to us a number of times. A special point was the kindness and helpfulness of our hosts, thank you!

Amazing stay! Views from the mountainside are incredible to wake up to every morning including sunrise and sunset. The view from the infinity pool was fantastic and had toys for children. The host Mr. George was always accommodating and even brought us eggs one morning :) would highly recommend

Dear Evi, dear Dimitra, Thank you very much for everything. You are such lovely and courteous people. Your service and the house are above average, something you don't experience so often these days. Also many thanks for the support when Noel was not feeling so well and we had to go to hospital - that is/was also above average. The villa is absolutely superb and everything is as described! We would love to come back when time permits. All the best and hope to see you soon. Best regards, Fabian

Wonderful villa in great location for family Holliday. Facilities were great and as described. The garden is beautiful and adds to the feeling of the outside space. Good shade and sun spots in the garden at all times of day. We had a lovely time exploring the local area as well as going further afield to explore Create to the full. Lots of lovely walks possible from the villa and the local beaches perfect for low key family beach safe for kids. The bedrooms were all lovely especially the master beadroom with beautiful balcony. Host was fantastic at communication and helped us with any questions we had responding promptly and efficiently to any difficulties. Would highly recommend.

The villa is a most beautiful place for a relaxed family vacation. Quiet, spacious and with all the amenities for a relaxed stay. The next town is nearby, only a few minutes away by car. The local support is excellent, very friendly, very responsive and alert. All in all, a very recommendable place.

A big thank you, everything was perfect: the place, the view, the calm, the host, the kitchen, the bedding, everything. Honestly, the first time an experience is impeccable from start to finish with 0 things to repeat. Thank you 🇬🇷

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

We had a great time in this lovely Cretan stone house, very clean and perfectly equipped. Toilet linen is changed twice a week and bed linen is changed every week, in addition to the cleaning done very regularly, which was not mentioned in the listing😁. The village is very lively and there are excellent restaurants , as well as a small convenience store perfectly busy. Maria Ionna is a very responsive host to our requests and always very friendly . I highly recommend this location!

The house is simply gorgeous. Our family had a wonderful Christmas holiday here. The host was very generous with items in the refrigerator and a well stocked kitchen. Lots of recommendations of places to eat in the area. Michael met us in the driveway upon arrival and showed us everything in the house, that was very kind. Especially loved access to the washer and dryer because we were traveling with kids. It was too cold to use the pool, but if you are here when it is warm, it would be such delight.

I can’t thank Antonio, Yiannis & the Sueno team for such a great stay. Nothing was too much to ask and they were all available to help throughout my short stay. The villa is stunning with lots of lovely touches such as robe, slippers, shampoo & conditioner and even a welcome hamper! Thanks again for a wonderful stay and for being amazing hosts.

Our family had a wonderful time at the villa. Before we even got there, Chania Rentals were very helpful and answered all my questions. Artemis was there to greet us on arrival, despite the very late hour after our flight, and was happy to talk us through everything. We had a few small problems with the villa during our stay but Artemis was so prompt and helpful to come out straight away to sort everything. The stunning views from the villa, the peace and quiet, the gorgeous pool which we heated for the week (definitely worth the extra money in April as it made the pool warm enough to enjoy!), the beautiful decor...our family loved it all. Aquilla Villa will be our family's fondest memory of the holiday :-)!
