Greece’s largest island is also one of its most popular holiday spots, particularly when it comes to families or groups. And though some of the best Crete hotels offer villa-style accommodation, those looking to stay with larger groups or craving total privacy are better suited to taking over a private villa. While we haven’t visited any of these properties, we’ve selected these villas based on their location, design and additional services, from the option to hire a private chef to arranging day trips, and even at-villa massages—some even feature dedicate massage rooms. For more options, see our edit of the best Airbnbs in Crete.
