Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Skaleta

What a wonderful place for a peaceful few days! The view is breathtaking and the area is just beautiful. The villa is extremely well appointed and has every amenity you could ask for, including a fantastic salt water pool. Hora Sfakion is a 5 minute drive or 20 minute walk away and has a choice of shops and tavernas all serving great food. My partner and I stayed with our young baby daughter and Alexandra and Lefteris couldn’t have been more helpful setting up a cot and high chair for our arrival.

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Despina! The location is fantastically quiet, perfect for relaxing, and at the same time a good base for exploring the south of Crete. The villa itself is very clean, lovingly furnished and well equipped – from the kitchen to the beautiful outdoor area with pool, everything was well maintained. We particularly liked the warm hospitality and the little touches when we arrived. We felt right at home! A real highlight: the fantastic view of the surrounding nature and the sunsets in the evening. We will be happy to come back and can recommend Villa Despina to anyone looking for peace, comfort and Cretan warmth. Thank you for everything!

Fantastic old traditional house, well preserved and carefully modernized. Kind hosts eager to assist and give recommendations of nice nearby places to visit. Amazing view of the valley.

Outstanding home in spectacularly beautiful and peaceful setting. Host family was very welcoming and always responsive. Excellent hiking and local restaurants. Highly recommend.

The listing was exactly as described / pictured in the photos. We were personally welcomed by George, who showed us everything briefly. We had complete privacy & George always responded to messages within a very short time. Having the pool heated was definitely worth it in May (19 degrees were just too cold for us). Absolute highlight was the hammam, which we used almost daily. We will be happy to come back & can highly recommend George as a host!

Absolutely loved this airbnb. Small deck overlooking the Chania Bay lighthouse and all the restaurants surrounding the bay. Airbnb at end and had a great restaurant (with blue chairs) that had great food. Beds were comfortable and back bedroom was very quiet as well. The owner met us at check-in and explained everything. Top deck was very nice to sit, my husband actually pulled out his laptop and worked on the table for awhile. He was in heaven. But we enjoyed sitting on small deck off living space too. Husband and myself w our two young adult children loved that we were so close to everything. Do not hesitate to book this airbnb.

This place was unbelievable! Absolutely beautiful area and location. We wish we had stayed longer. This was our first time in Crete and happened to pick the very best place! There were 9 of us, and we fit very well. Tina was great. Penelope was lovely, but did not speak English (she lives on the first floor). We would highly recommend this area and this house! Next time we will stay longer!

This place is amazing! Cleopatra received us in person, with gifts for us. She introduced us to the accommodation with passion, took us to the charming little square of the village, explained the various activities and surrounding spots. the view from THE terraces is breathtaking (bird 's-eye view of the sea from the heights). the house is perfectly equipped, there is more bathroom than bedrooms. The geographical location is ideal for visiting the entire south center area of the island, which we seek calm and authenticity. for typical and cheap dishes, appointment at the Platia taverna on the small charming square of the village. Too bad we can only give 5 stars maximum! We'll come back, I promise.

Super clean and modern apartment in an amazing location. Beds were nice and comfortable. Beautiful view of the harbor off the balcony. The apartment is exactly as described in the listing. Tons of places to shop, eat and and have a coffee or drink within walking distance. We walked from the ferry port and it is about a 15 minute walk with your luggage. There is also a bus stop that's about a 10 minute walk that will take you all over town and is very inexpensive. Fokion is a great host and provided instructions so the apartment was very easy to find and check-in/out.

The place was exactly what we expected and very comfortable and clean. The host was flexible with us for checking in and was there to greet us when we arrived. The host provided information to help us schedule our taxi to the port to catch our early morning ferry. The location was perfect with everything we wanted in walking distance.

Georgio was very accommodating and met us at the apartment with the key even though we were 2 hours later than we had advised him earlier. The was a bottle of wine, bottled water and a nice bowl of fruit left for us. He was helpful and answered all our questions promptly during our stay.

We really enjoyed our stay at Stratos’ flat. It was comfortable, clean, and had beautiful views of the sea from the balcony. It was well situated for the beach and only a short walk away from the old town. Stratos was a great host- he was extremely responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Thank you!

The photos do not do this beautiful place justice. The flowers and greens are so bright, and you have a view of mountains and the sea. Tina is incredibly kind and accommodating, and very easy to communicate with. She sent me home with some wonderful herbs from her garden - they smell amazing! She also treated me to some homemade Cretan cake she baked at the start of my trip. As a solo traveller, this was incredibly special and I am so grateful to her. Driving around the area is fantastic with so many beaches and hikes in the surrounding area. The space is very clean and comfortable! I hope to one day return.

Great location, very short walk to the port, beautiful view of the ocean from the balcony. The host was extremely responsive and always willing to help make our stay comfortable! Apartment was very clean and the jacuzzi is a great feature. Multiple cafe’s/bars just downstairs with great food, drinks, and service. Highly recommend staying at this property if you want to be close to the venetian port and all Chania has to offer.

what a wonderful place and a wonderful stay. Very kind and polite host. Best location in the village - right on the beach with amazing views! We would jump at the chance to stay here again in the future! Thank you again for a wonderful stay!

Large place with two great terraces. The location is very good and very quiet. You can also walk quickly to the old town. The host Manos met me in person and gave me many useful recommendations.

Loved our stay here! The location is great. There is a view of the water and it’s very close walking distance to old town. Parking was really very close. It was usually pretty full, but we always found a spot.

Tasos is an extremely welcoming host. When we arrived late, we found a generously stocked fridge and freezer. Fruits, jams, rusks and cold and hot drinks were waiting for us. And Tasos was absolutely adorable to make our stay easier. We really appreciate it. Her apartment is very nice , the jacuzzi and the beautiful view make it a rare find. We highly recommend this rental, even more appreciated thanks to the many details Tasos has thought of.

The places is perfect.

Great brief stay after a late flight into Heraklion. Everything was super clean and comfortable. We loved the space and would recommend to anyone looking to stay close to the port or airport, but note that it is ~25 minutes to the city center.

Gorgeous apartment in a great location. Nikos was very flexible and friendly in his communication. Fantastic views and comfortable setting.

The accommodation is in a very good location if you want to visit the city. Beautifully decorated, it is certainly small but enough for 2-3 nights. The little extras (breakfast and shower) were appreciated.

Giannis's flat was really clean and beautiful. The neighborhood is calm and provides various restaurants, bakery and supermarket. The communication with Gianni was quick and easy, it's a welcoming host. It's a really good choice for visiting Heraklion 👍

A spacious apartment, very nicely decorated, bright, with beautiful views, very well located, the sound of the sea lulled us at night. The beautiful terrace for breakfast or dinner. We had a parking space right next to the apartment, super practical. Konstantinos responded to us very quickly, very friendly A perfect week
