Monthly Rentals in Dafnes

Christina’s place is one of my highlights visiting Crete. The place is so peaceful and beautiful. Having your morning coffee or just stepping out first thing in the morning into the little garden in front of the apartment was a perfect way to start the day. The little village with its own slow paced commute and lovely people is another unforgettable experience. Would definitely come again!

The most meaningful stay during our Greece honeymoon. My husband and I enjoyed this beautiful place located in a small village. Choosing to stay in smaller villages compared to the main cities really pays off! You get to see the traditional houses and experience the slow pace of the islands. This house reminded me of my grandfather’s home which made me feel very sentimental. The home is beautifully renovated with personal touches and antique decor. You have everything you need plus extra blankets, towels and more. We were greeted personally by Georgia, her baby and her mom- who made us lemon cakes which was very generous. And also some wine and chocolate from Georgia. To say that she was generous was an understatement! Georgia is an amazing host and always greets us as if she were a friend! She’s very proactive and has lots of recommendations which made decision making a little easier (my husband and I were struggling making decisions on where to go so this was a massive help!).

It was just great. Everything was very modern and it looks exactly like on the pictures. The location was probably the best thing about it. In the very center of Iraklion but quiet too!

Outstanding view - even better in person. Seems to captivate most who stay here. We stayed 3 nights (easily could have stayed longer) and had the entire property to ourselves (early November). George met us in person and had some nice bottles of wine for us as well as some helpful restaurant tips that we can also recommend (στου Λουλούδη - about two minute walk away and Alloro Cafe-Pizza-Grill - just south of town). The house was modern and comfortable both inside and outside. It also has a private off-street parking area - terrific to have. The location was convenient to some of the top places of interest such as Phaistos, Knossos, the Archaeological museum in Heraklion, and even Matala. Very lovely place to stay. We highly recommend it.
