"An excellent apartment (we were in Unit G with the outside balcony). While we found the inside space to be a bit “tight,” we found the two decks to be beyond spacious. The view is fantastic and the locale is ideal for the waterfront area.
The apartment was absolutely immaculate upon arrival. Self check-in was clearly communicated and the hosts were very proactive in outreach. The kitchen was small but adequately provisioned — and everything works perfectly. The pictures actually do not do...
"We were able to use this lovely hotel as a base to explore Vai Beach and surrounding areas, then Ierapetra the next day.
One thing I really like about the hotel is that they let you check in as early as noon, and not leave until noon.
The patio facing the water was very nice. Many people were sitting outside enjoying the sound of the waves and the breeze. "
"Les appartements proposés ne sont pas tous équivalents même s’ils sont au même prix.
Celui qui nous était destiné avait un séjour sombre comme une cave, avec lumière électrique obligatoire toute la journée. Déprimant..avec vue sur une courette loin d’être aussi bien aménagée que sur les photos du site.
Après une discussion serrée avec la propriétaire, ns avons obtenu un autre appartement, à l’étage cette fois-ci, donc bcp plus clair. Mais seulement pour 3 nuits ( ns en avions réservé 4), nous...

Rejuvenate family & friends at Stunning Villa Estia - close to beach & tavernas.
10/10 Excellent
"We had an amazing stay at Villa Estia, set just a short drive from Makry Gialos in a peaceful hillside location. The villa offered everything we needed for a relaxing family holiday and then some!The views were truly breathtaking—rolling hills, sea glimpses, and beautiful sunsets right from the terrace. The pool was a standout feature for us. It was perfect for both younger children and adults, with a great layout and plenty of space to swim or cool off. There were also plenty of shaded areas around the pool and outdoor seating, which was ideal for escaping the midday sun without having to head inside.Inside, the air-conditioning worked flawlessly throughout the villa—powerful, quiet, and consistent. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable, and there was a great sense of privacy and calm throughout. We especially enjoyed the dining spaces both indoors and out—perfect for big family meals or laid-back breakfasts with a view. There are many lovely places to see in a hire car and easily fell your time up on the island. Overall, we had a fantastic stay. Villa Estia is peaceful, well-equipped, and an excellent choice for families or groups looking to relax, unwind, and enjoy the beauty of Crete. We’d absolutely stay again!"
"We enjoyed the unique character of the property from the enchanting colour schemes to the different levels of the accommodation. The decor and art work was clearly the work of an artist. We were able to spend days or large parts of the day in comfort, using the garden and living areas. "
"A wonderful hotel. Great staff. The location and grounds are lovely. Pools are so perfectly maintained with plenty of sun chairs. We used the fitness center, which you can reserve. It has everything you need for a good workout. Seafront restaurants are a short walk away. The Cretan House was our favorite. Right on the harbor with impressive food. Also liked the easy parking. If you drive in Crete you know what that means. Our 4 night stay was a highlight of our 6 week trip around Crete. Highly recommend. "
"Terra Minoika Boutique Resort is the perfect destination for a quiet and romantic getaway. Stratis and the staff were exceptional, offering warm hospitality and attentive service. The homemade food, crafted with fresh local ingredients, was truly amazing and added a special touch to the experience. If you're seeking tranquility and a genuine Cretan experience, this is the ideal place to stay."
"Our second stay here and it was just as good as the first time. Spacious and well equipped. Air conditioning kept it comfortable at night. Brilliant pool just a few metres away and with the beach and village just a few minutes walk everything you need is within easy access. We had a small water leak in the bathroom but 30 minutes after reporting it a member of staff arrived and it was quickly fixed. We were expecting a clean at the end of the first week. It wasn’t a big deal and we could have chased it up."
