Nous avons séjourné 3 nuits dans cet appartement pendant notre road trip en Crète, et nous avons vraiment adoré notre séjour ! L’appartement est très propre, confortable et parfaitement entretenu. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié le petit jardin, vraiment mignon et agréable, ainsi que la vue dégagée qui apporte beaucoup de charme au logement.L’endroit est calme, bien situé pour découvrir les alentours de Kissamos et l’accueil a été très sympathique. On s’y sent rapidement comme chez soi.Une très belle adresse que nous recommandons sans hésiter pour quelques jours dans la région !

Superschön für Familien!

Noch schönere Lage als erhofft, unkomplizierte und jederzeit verfügbare Vermieter, zweckmäßige Einrichtung, großzügiger Platz in und vor der Wohnung, man sollte keine Scheu vor Tieren in der Umgebung haben (Katzen, einige Hähne etc.), dann ist der Urlaub klasse. Traumhafter Garten mit orangen- und Zitronenbäumen.

Clean. Good internet speed. Amazing view. Great for home office work and good beaches for excursions nearby. The owner‘s family treats you like their quest. Would return without a second thought!

Ein gelungener Aufenthalt in einem schönen, gepflegten Objekt

Lefteris war als Vermieter schon vor unserem Aufenthalt stets gut erreichbar und hat auf unsere Fragen immer schnell und kompetent geantwortet, was wir sehr positiv fanden. Wir haben schon vor unserem Aufenthalt viele nützliche Informationen über die Umgebung, Ausflugsziele, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und umliegende Tavernen erhalten - ein toller Service!!! Die Wohnung haben wir anhand der uns übermittelten Koordinaten mit unserem Navigationsgerät problemlos finden können. Das Mietobjekt selbst haben wir in makellosem Reinigungszustand vorgefunden, wirklich top! Es war alles an (Koch-)Geschirr, Besteck etc. vorhanden und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Die Betten waren absolut sauber und bequem, alle Fenster in wirklich allen Räumen waren mit Moskitonetzen ausgestattet. Wohnzimmer, Küche und das Hauptschlafzimmer waren je nach Tageszeit etwas dunkel, was uns aber dadurch, dass wir in so Urlauben immer draußen "leben" nicht wirklich gestört hat. Viele kleine Aufmerksamkeit (wie z.B. das frische Gemüse aus dem Gemüsegarten nebenan) seitens Lefteris und seiner in der über der Ferienwohnung wohnenden Eltern haben unseren Aufenthalt noch weiter aufgewertet, vielen Dank noch einmal dafür! Wir haben den Blick auf's Meer von der Terrasse aus geliebt, der Blick bei Sonnenaufgang: einmalig schön! Und die schöne Anfahrt in's Dorf vorbei an den Olivenhainen, das Singen der Zikaden, vermissen wir schon jetzt. Wir haben Ausflüge an die Strände Falasarna, Balos und Elafonisi gemacht, alle sind absolut lohnenswert und vom Haus aus in unter einer Stunde erreichbar. Auch eine Tour nach Chania mit seinem Venezianischen Hafen und der schönen Altstadt bietet sich an. Wenn es uns mal wieder in Kretas Westen verschlägt, würden wir diese Unterkunft jederzeit wieder wählen!

About the host

Hosted by lefteris verykakis

Host profile image
I’m from Crete and love sharing the island’s beauty, traditions, and hidden gems with my guests. Hosting lets me meet amazing people from around the world and help them experience the real Crete — its nature, food, and warm hospitality. My goal is for you to feel at home and leave with unforgettable memories.

Why they chose this property

I chose this neighborhood because it captures the true spirit of Crete — peaceful, authentic, and surrounded by natural beauty. The village of Kallergiana is quiet and friendly, with stunning views of both the sea and mountains. I love the fresh air, the sound of birds in the morning, and the scent of herbs in the breeze. It’s close enough to famous beaches like Balos and Elafonissi, yet far from the crowds, so you can truly relax. What I enjoy most is the slower pace of life here — it feels like time stands still, letting you enjoy every moment.

What makes this property unique

Located in the peaceful village of Kallergiana, Kissamos (Chania), this spacious home offers three comfortable bedrooms, a fully equipped large kitchen, and a generous veranda with stunning sea views. Surrounded by a beautiful garden filled with trees and flowers, it inspires a sense of warmth and tranquility. With its combination of space, comfort, and authentic Cretan charm, it’s the perfect place to relax and enjoy the best of Western Crete.
