I had an incredible view of the ocean. Very welcoming and friendly with great recommendations when I checked in really helped me plan during my stay. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen had everything I needed. Lots of incredibly beautiful beaches nearby, and some excellent tavernas. Made friends with some the local cats. Highly recommend and would love to return one day! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5EE38060A3082283E1497E17695AC224CA51FB0F1718020727165.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/36AECE7BA8685BD76FB7AF443B746D971F675B491718020723966.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8C1E07845C53D7E08B0CB73CA39D0F4596C6DFC21718020727225.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Laura Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Helen Oct 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication We had a fabulous time at the cottages, it is so tranquil and the properties are beautiful and well equipped. Ioana was a fantastic host and gave us lots of great recommendations. Would say its not really walkable to the beach as the roads are steep and windy and not well lit so car needed. There are dining options within walking distance. Highly recommended. ##### Helen Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael Jun 13, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities If you are visiting the Irepetra area of Crete, you can of course stay at one of the fancy resorts right on the water. But if you want a truly unique and memorable experience, THIS is the place to stay. Authentic, traditional vibe with all the necessary modern amenities, quiet and relaxing atmosphere, within walking distance of many Tavernas AND the beach, and in my opinion a better view of the Libyan Sea. Plus Ioanna and her wonderful staff will take good care of you. If I could give it 6 stars I would - will definitely be returning here the next time I visit the area!!! ##### Michael ### 8/10 Good #### John Oct 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication These cottages are well equipped and comfortable. The kitchen is small but has all needed to prepare a meal should you want to do that. We only used it for breakfast preferring to eat out in the evening. There is no easy access to the beach as the cottages are up a steep hill. Parking is mainly at the rear of the cottages, on street, but not difficult. It was particularly nice to site out on the terrace in the evening with a view over the village towards the sea. Everything in the cottage was spotlessly clean and neat and tidy and they have everything going for them. We only stayed for two nights and that was about enough for us but I can see it would be easy to make a longer holiday in these quirky and interesting cottages. ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandra Sep 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Our Koutsounari Traditional Cottage was just that, traditional and cosy, quaint, and very clean. We had a small living area and kitchen, shower room with toilet and a double bedroom with a very comfortable bed and beautiful bedlinen. There was also a terrace with seating which we used for breakfast and evening drinks. There was air conditioning in the bedroom. Ioanna made us very welcome and gave us a map of the area highlighting restaurants, beaches, areas of interest, etc. She was incredibly helpful, warm and friendly. I would recommend the cottages to those looking for a traditional Cretan stay, but would not recommend for children as the wall on the terrace was low and there was a drop on the other side! ##### Sandra Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vasileios Jun 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent location, view and lovely cottage! ##### Vasileios Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erik Günter May 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Wir waren als Paar für eine Woche vor Ort und es war einfach traumhaft. Vom Empfang mit vielen Ausflugs-Tipps, über die traditionellen Gebäude mit Blick aufs Meer bis hin zu den liebevoll eingerichteten Zimmern - Es war einfach herrlich. Die Terassen bieten Platz und sind einfach sehr toll zum entspannen oder sonnen. Die kleine Küche hat alles, was man braucht um sich auch selbst zu Verpflegen, fußläufig sind aber auch einige Restaurants. Strand nur wenige Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt oder ca. 15 Min zu Fuß. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber und man sieht wie viel Arbeit drin steckt. Es ist so schön, wie auf den Bildern gezeigt.

Koutsounari truly is a small slice of paradise on the already beautuful island of Crete, and Ioanna the property manager has created a unique and authentic Greek experience with the cottages. From the architecture to the interior decor, every detail is well thought out to create a traditional feel while still providing all the modern amenities we are accostomed to (wifi, climate control, etc.). The area itself is peaceful and quiet, and the beach, grocery store and dining options are all within walking distance. If your travels take you to this part of Crete, do yourself a favor and look into staying here, I know you won't be disappointed... ##### Michael Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JEROME Sep 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Maison traditionnelle adaptee au confort moderne, a flanc de coteau, avec une superbe vue panoramique sur la mer.

The cottages are set in a small village and made of ancient greek architecture overlooking the ocean. We had stunning views right from our private roof terrace. Each cottage is slightly different, and there are less than ten, so there is a lot of privacy and peace and quiet. The cottages have great top-of-the-line amenities (like a Nespresso coffee maker), a small kitchen, living room, and bed room, perfect for some lone time with a significant other. One thing that really made our stay memorable was Eoanna, our host and owner of the Cottages. Eoanna was so friendly and welcoming, going out of her way to make us feel at home. She had lots of insider tips of things to do and helping with restaurant reservations. The Cottages are set in a small village Kousunari, a five minute walk from the beach and within walking distance to an abundance of great restaurants. The south of Crete was also a great choice for us, since it was far less touristy than the north. I can’t recommend this accommodation highly enough. ![View from our private terrace](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E7B81AE29CDEB138F7FC7B482BA07AE2FBE4B2B81570006214188.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Max Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anonyme Sep 29, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Ces hébergements traditionnels crétois ont un charme fou et sont joliment décorés.

Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen, der Ausblick von unserer Terasse auf das Meer war hübsch, leider war es während unseres Aufenthaltes recht windig, ansonsten hätten wir dort sicherlich mehr Zeit verbracht. Unser Haus war nett eingerichtet, besonders gut gefallen haben uns die gemauerten Sitzbänke. Für den Weg zum Strand empfiehlt es sich mit dem Auto zu fahren. Die Gastgeberin ist sehr freundlich und konnte uns viele Tipps für Ausflüge auf der ganzen Insel geben. Die Zimmerreinigung findet alle 2-3 Tage statt.

Also Ioanna was very friendly and helpful, not only providing us with all the necessities for breakfast the first day, but also going out of her way to make our stay memorable.

Die großartige, wieder hergerichtete Anlage aus alten Gebäudeteilen besticht durch ihre Großzügigkeit und ist idyllisch in die Landschaft eingebettet. Man sieht einfach die Liebe zum Detail, welche sich auch in der Austattung der Zimmer wieder spiegelt. Für uns war der Aufenthalt hier das Highlight unserer Rundreise. Im Ort bekommt man alles, was benötigt wird um auch mal ein kleines Abendessen zuzubereiten. Die Küchenausstattung beinhaltet alles, was man braucht. Wenn wir mal wieder auf Kreta sind, kommen wir auf jedenfall wieder, versprochen! ##### Christopher Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Acro Wellness Suites - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Malevizi-Hotels-Acro-Wellness-Suites-Adults-Only.h42005805.Hotel-Information) > > [Annabelle Beach Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Annabelle-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive.h2705193.Hotel-Information) > > [Cretan Dream Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Chania-Hotels-Cretan-Dream-Royal-Hotel.h2336360.Hotel-Information) > > [Grecotel LUXME White](https://www.expedia.ca/Rethymno-Hotels-Grecotel-LUXME-White-Palace-All-Inclusive.h2573709.Hotel-Information) > > [Seaside A Lifestyle Resort All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Malevizi-Hotels-Seaside-A-Lifestyle-Resort-All-Inclusive.h2312612.Hotel-Information) > > [Agapi Beach Resort - Premium All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Malevizi-Hotels-Agapi-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive.h1056753.Hotel-Information) > > [Creta Maris Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Creta-Maris-Resort-All-Inclusive.h541819.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Punta Cana](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d601906-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Stella Island Luxury Resort & Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Stella-Island-Luxury-Resort-Spa-Adults-Only.h16508136.Hotel-Information) > > [Domes Noruz Chania, Autograph Collection - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Chania-Hotels-Domes-Noruz-Chania.h15451739.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels.d178314.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Phāea Blue - Small Luxury Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.ca/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Blue-Palace-Hotel-Elounda.h972986.Hotel-Information) > > [Abaton Island Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Abaton-Island-Resort-Spa.h20145294.Hotel-Information) > > [Star Beach Village and Water Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Star-Beach-Village-And-Water-Park.h1342145.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantica Caldera Palace - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Atlantica-Caldera-Palace-All-Inclusive.h35181792.Hotel-Information) > > [Minos Imperial Beach Resort Milatos Crete](https://www.expedia.ca/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Minos-Imperial.h660214.Hotel-Information) > > [Out Of The Blue All Inclusive Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Malevizi-Hotels-Out-Of-The-Blue-Capsis-Elite-Resort.h1164026.Hotel-Information) > > [Mitsis Selection Laguna](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Mitsis-Laguna-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h4260878.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels.d6023515.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Euphoria Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Platanias-Hotels-Euphoria-Resort-All-Inclusive.h21337972.Hotel-Information) > > [Bella Beach - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Bella-Beach-All-Inclusive.h1081456.Hotel-Information) > > [Rimondi Grand Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Rethymno-Hotels-Rimondi-Grand-Resort-Spa.h4925255.Hotel-Information) > > [Lyttos Beach - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Lyttos-Beach-All-Inclusive.h8077194.Hotel-Information) > > [Daios Cove](https://www.expedia.ca/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Daios-Cove-Luxury-Resort-Villas.h3300418.Hotel-Information) > > [Domes of Elounda, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Domes-Of-Elounda.h2497819.Hotel-Information) > > [Mitsis Rinela](https://www.expedia.ca/Hersonissos-Hotels-Mitsis-Rinela-Beach-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h2335564.Hotel-Information) > > [Peninsula Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Malevizi-Hotels-Peninsula-Resort-Spa.h4680601.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [flights from billy bishop toronto city airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/ytz/flights-from-billy-bishop-toronto-city-airport) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Orlando (MCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/mco/toronto-to-orlando) ### Packages > [Cancun](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/179995/Cancun)
