Make yourself at home. Only better.
01 / The DearGuests way
You’re in good hands.
You’ve got better things to do than worry about the details. And we like it that way.
02 / Concierge
Consider us your people here.
Need a table for two, a ride to the airport, or a little local advice? Just ask. We’ll take it from there.
Getting around
Met at Chania or Heraklion and driven to your door. No queues, no maps, no arguing over who navigates.
To and from the ferry, timed to your sailing. The ferry waits for no one; we make sure it doesn’t have to.
A 7- or 9-seater that swallows the whole family and the beach bags. Or a motorbike or quad, for those who’d rather arrive with windswept hair and a story.
At the villa
Cretan dinners, barbecues or a long lunch, cooked in your kitchen. You take the credit; we won’t tell.
A bartender and cocktails for a party or a birthday. Someone else does the shaking; you just raise a glass.
Treatments by a therapist at your villa, so the only commute is from the sunbed.
Hair, nails and make-up without leaving the villa. Red-carpet ready, flip-flops optional.
Vetted local sitters, so the grown-ups get an evening out. The kids won’t miss you. Probably.
A local doctor who comes to you, day or night. Hopefully the one number you never need.

Ask our concierge03 / Experiences
Stay curious. We’ve got you.
Hidden beaches, days at sea, and stories worth bringing home. We know a few.
A skipper, a catamaran or yacht, and the coves you can’t reach by road. Your only job is picking the next swim spot.
Small boats to explore the coast on your own. Captain’s hat not included.
Caves, reefs and the odd curious octopus. A first try with an instructor, or bring your logbook.
Beaches, islands and sunsets a day away. Back in time for dinner, with sand in every bag.
Mountain villages, gorges and dirt roads. Expect dust, goats and the best views on the island.
Guided walks, from easy coastal paths to the gorges. Every step counts towards a long lunch afterwards.
Through olive groves and down to the sea. The horse knows the way; you just have to look good doing it.
Small Cretan wineries and the people who make the wine. Swirl, sniff, sip, and nod wisely at the word “tannins”.
Ancient groves, a working mill and a tasting of the island’s liquid gold. You’ll never look at supermarket oil the same way again.
Cook with a local, then eat what you made. Grandmother-approved recipes; even the mistakes taste good.
If you require a service not listed above, please inform us, and we will inquire on your behalf regarding its availability and associated costs in our area.
