Self-Catering Accommodations in Vasilíai

Lovely architect house with amazing views and peaceful setting. The rooms are comfortable. The garden and pool are great and just for you. The building comprises two entirely separate sections. The owners live in one but this should not put you off because they fully respect your space and privacy. And they are very nice, accomodating and available if you need them. And the sunsets are truly amazing.

The property was excellent - it felt homely and had a great garden, pool, seating areas, bbq etc. the views from the various balconies and terraces were amazing and nice sit down with an early morning coffee or evening drink. We had a young family (6 months, 3 and 4 years) and older parents stay with us (in their 70s) and everyone enjoyed. There are local shops and cafe walking distance away and parking for a large van we hired. Location to airport, beaches, supermarkets for big shops is also good too. In addition the hosts were so kind and friendly - on our first day they greeted us with food and drinks and also provided lots of things for our little ones - crib, high chair, baby bouncer, toys etc which made everything that much easier with the little ones, especially the 6 month old. The house is fully stocked with enough cooking utensils, cups, glasses, cutlery etc.

Spacious, spotlessly clean in a lovely setting

Beautiful house that has EVERYTHING we could have possibly needed. The owners welcomed us with many snacks and drinks in the fully stocked kitchen. Pool was delightful to soak in at the end of the hot days. Communication with owners was perfect and we felt very supported and informed throughout our stay. This is the kind of house that you might not want to leave at the end of your vacation!

the even we had to attend to was 5 min away from the villa. so for us it was perfect. heraklion center, beach, airport, ... all within 15 min drive max....

Wonderful hosts who put a great deal of care and thought into making sure you have everything you need. From thoughtful touches like zwieback (crisp, twice-baked bread) and honey to practical essentials such as sponges and dishwashing liquid, everything has been considered. The apartment itself is fantastic—beautifully designed with both warmth and practicality in mind. The owners genuinely care about their guests and are incredibly responsive and helpful. I traveled with my dog, and they were very accommodating and welcoming, with the reasonable expectation that he would be well behaved—which he was! Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and you can really feel the care and love that has gone into creating this place.

The house is huge and secluded—a really quiet spot. The Jacuzzi and sauna work well, and the owners are simply amazing.

Space was exactly as described.

Wonderful. The view from the balcony is astounding. A mosaic of olive groves and vineyards on the hillside opposite across the valley. And vistas of the high mountains beyond. All of this in a mature garden stretching down to a gorgeous large swimming pool which is lit in the evening to allow you to swim long into the night if you choose to. The accommodation is modern and very well maintained. The manager and the owners are also very approachable and friendly. In my view this accommodation is difficult to beat anywhere in Greece.

Had an amazing time at this place. It's very spacious, clean, and clearly well maintained. It had all the amenities one would want and the interior's design was well thought out. I particuly liked that the bedrooms could be perfectly blacked out, which always helps me sleep. This place exceeded my expectations! One other big plus was our host, Angeliki, she made us feel very welcome, gave us good recommendations and even helped us book a restaurant when that same place told us they were fully booked. Can't recommend this enough!

A delightful, pristine property. Thoughtfully designed and well equipped. The apartment is spacious and has a lovely pool and immaculate terrace It is only a short walk through residential streets to the town which has ample amenities including a specialist Cretan cheese shop. Take a longer walk from the door to reach the church on top of the hill opposite the property, or drive 15 minutes to Knossos. Our stay was too short and we would return to this property without hesitation.

The welcome by the owner was hot, he provided us with explanations and recommendations making our stay comfortable. The house's location was perfect, surrounded by olive trees, and a quiet and calming neighborhood. Exceptional cleanliness and safety measures made us feel secure during our stay. The rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated. The kitchen was full of amenities, everything was working properly.

The suites were beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable. The location was perfect for exploring the charming town of Archanes, and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay special.

Very quiet, well kept, and exceptionally comfortable. Loved the pool and breakfast.

Clean. decoration, size of the room

Very communicative and friendly host, Petros, was amazing! We actually changed our itinerary based on his suggestions and was grateful that we did! Very nice room, too

Absolutely adore this place! We loved staying here! Check-in was super simple, the apartment is so clean and very well set up! There's also a Saturday market right across the street!!! And a restaurant right next door with very friendly people and incredible food 😀 It's is one bus ride away from the airport (hopped on the bus right outside the airport and there was a stop about a 2 minute walk from the apartment) It's just a 1-3 minute walk to bus stops that will take you pretty much anywhere in town or out of town; there are a ton of things in easy walking distance too! This place is so cute and spacious and the bed was super comfortable 😄 Highly recommend this spot! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Apartments are very modern and have all the facilities we needed (AC, fridge, large TVs, iron, hairdryer...). The staff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great. Food and drinks in the restaurant were also good (just a bit pricier than in a tavern, which I think is reasonable). Overall, the atmosphere in the "village" is very relaxing and everything looks very new and clean, so we had a pretty good time there. We would certainly stay there again if we return to Crete. Also, there are plenty of parking spots which for us was important, as we traveled a lot by car during our stay.

The entire staff was amazing! Sofia, Anna, Dimitri, and Dani where beautiful hosts. All of them going above and beyond to answer all of our questions and make sure that we had a great stay! We wanted to bring Dimitri home with us, but my luggage was already at 50 pounds! Our apartment was always clean, the the pool was great and being right on the ocean just put the cherry on top. Highly recommend.

Very beautiful, new and clean villa with private pool!!! All this in front of the sea!!!
