With an average of 300 sunny days a year, over 100 beaches, a rich archaeological history, and spectacular landscapes, Crete retains its position as one of the most popular Greek islands for travelers year after year. A string of impressive new Airbnbs, both along the coastlines and further ashore, have been cropping up recently, making worthy competitors for Crete’s excellent selection of hotels and the island’s famed family-friendly hotels and villas.

Each of these Crete Airbnbs has been granted Guest Favorite status, meaning it has scored highly across a range of stringent satisfaction measures—so you can book assured there’ll be no disappointments upon check-in.
