Right in the centre of Rethymno Town, Philikon Luxury Suites has inner courtyard views from the patio. It is situated 1.5 km from Rethymno Beach and offers luggage storage space. The guest house features garden views, a sun terrace, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. Great for visiting the Old Town of Rethymno, the only issue is the distance to the car park, but this is compensated for by the pedestrian streets and lack of traffic.

Situated in Malia, 2.3 km from Central Malia Beach, Mila Malia Suites has a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, parking on-site and rooms with free WiFi access. There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. Everything was amazing, we felt really great. Vicky, the owner, is the best host we have ever met - she was always available for useful information and best advice for our needs(and also for best cocktails and bar/restaurant service). The rooms were big, very clean (two really nice ladies are taking care of the rooms each morning) and with a very nice view of the sea. The breakfast had everything we needed: coffee, fruit juice, milk, a variety of eggs, cheeses, salami, vegetables, fruits, pastries and yogurt with many toppings. Malia old town (with very good restaurants) is at a walking distance, just 10 min away down the hill, so this was the perfect stay for a quiet, yet close to action holiday.

Housed in a historic building, the recently renovated Agia Fotia Taverna provides accommodation with a bar and free WiFi. This beachfront property offers access to a balcony. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a car rental service is also available.

The family-friendly restaurant at the homestay serves Greek cuisine, and is open for dinner and lunch. The most amazing location right by the sea, the beach is pebbles but really clear and gorgeous for swimming. No sun umbrellas but there are shady spots. Laid back staff, lovely food. A wonderful place to stay

Featuring garden views, Stella's Traditional Inn features accommodation with balcony, around 33 km from Vai Palm Forest. There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. The guest house provides rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. I think up until now this was our best rent ever, loved everything - isolated location of the property, the garden with so many little beautiful details in it, many different places you can relax, sunbeds, variety of patio furniture, hammocks, it felt like even if this place is fully occupied with guests it can never feel crowded. One thing to mention which was a huge plus to us - cicadas! There are so many and they can be so loud at times that you can't hear yourself think, it's beautiful :) Aside from this, all the regular expectations are there - very clean, comfortable rooms, private parking.
