    We are German real estate agents and specialize in real estate from Crete. In addition to finding suitable properties on Crete for you, our portfolio also includes organizing viewing appointments on Crete.
    We are at your side at every stage of your property purchase in Crete and will accompany you from the first conversation through to the notary contract.

    Your ideas are important to us, such as the location on Crete in combination with sea views, proximity to the beach, sandy beach, stone house or swimming pool. There are also important points to consider, such as the dimensions of the rooms in a property. In Greece and therefore also on Crete, the walls are included, i.e. external wall to external wall. In contrast to German real estate, here measurements are taken from the inside wall to the inside wall.

    We strongly recommend that you check the living space specified when visiting Crete, as this can differ greatly from German information (calculation, living space regulations, DIN standards) and usable areas may have been included (cellar, technical room, balcony, terrace, etc.).
    Please also note that when specifying the location of real estate offers on Crete, these are approximate values.
    The Greek energy certificate (if required) is available during the inspection.

    Additional costs such as commission, real estate transfer tax, notary fees and legal fees are added to the stated purchase price. You can find more details on our homepage at INFOS.

    All properties from Crete offered through our portal have been carefully checked and translated. However, errors can creep in, so we assume no liability for the accuracy of the information.

    If you have any questions about the topic of buying a property or land on Crete, we are happy to help you and can clarify further details in a conversation.

    Our general terms and conditions apply, which you can find on our homepage under general terms and conditions and right of withdrawal.

  • 🏡 Almyrida – charming seaside resort in the bay of Souda (postal code 730 08)
    Almyrida, also spelled Almirida, is a popular coastal town in the Apokoronas region, about 25 kilometers east of Chania. Located directly on Souda Bay, the town combines the relaxed atmosphere of a former fishing village with a good tourist infrastructure. Due to its sheltered location, fine sandy beach, and clear water, Almyrida is particularly popular with families, expats, and independent travelers.

    🏘️ Townscape & Structure
    Maritime character: Almyrida stretches along a small waterfront road lined with tavernas, cafés, and apartments. The townscape is friendly, manageable, and Mediterranean in character.
    Tradition meets tourism: While the old village center still has a rural feel, modern holiday homes, small hotels, and villas have settled along the water – in harmonious proportions.
    Year-round life: Although Almyrida is primarily a tourist destination, it is not just a seasonal resort. Many residents live here year-round—some locals, some international newcomers.

    🌿 Nature & Surroundings
    Sandy beach & bay: Almyrida's beach slopes gently, with calm, crystal-clear waters—ideal for children and relaxed swimmers. Water sports, such as stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking, are also available.
    Green surroundings: The village is surrounded by rolling hills, with olive groves, small woods and well-maintained paths.
    Excursion destinations: Nearby are Gavalochori, Plaka, Kalyves and other charming villages – ideal for day trips inland or along the coast.

    🏛️ History & Culture
    Relics from the past: Historic chapels, an old Roman quarry, and traditional buildings can be found in the surrounding area. Almyrida itself is steeped in history, but lacks a museum-like atmosphere.
    Gentle development: The place has developed into a tourist destination over the years without completely losing its originality – one reason for its continued popularity.

    Multicultural flair: Many Europeans, especially from Great Britain, Germany and France, have settled here permanently or have second homes.
    🍷 Culinary & Agriculture
    Waterfront Tavernas: Almyrida's seafront promenade offers a number of family-run tavernas serving fresh fish, seafood, and traditional Cretan dishes.
    Regional products: Olive oil, wine, honey and cheese mostly come directly from the surrounding area – be it from Plaka, Gavalochori or Kalyves.
    Weekly markets & direct purchase: Those who value regional food will find farmers' markets and farm sales in the neighboring villages.
    🧭 Tips for visitors
    Suitable for families: The gently sloping beach, quiet traffic, and family atmosphere make Almyrida an ideal place for families with children.
    Best time to travel: Spring and autumn are particularly attractive – with a pleasant climate and less hustle and bustle than in midsummer.
    Mobility: A rental car is recommended to explore the surrounding villages, mountain roads, and more remote beaches.

    🏡 Real estate & location potential
    Almyrida is one of the consistently sought-after real estate locations in western Crete – primarily due to its combination of proximity to the beach, good infrastructure, and authentic village life. Demand is stable, especially among foreign buyers seeking a holiday home or retirement home with sea views.

    The property offering ranges from modern villas with pools to renovated houses with traditional character to waterfront apartments. Plots with building permits are still available in a few locations, but are in high demand.

    Location advantages:

    Beach location with quiet tourism – popular but not overcrowded
    High quality of life thanks to good infrastructure and well-maintained surroundings
    Attractive for year-round living or rental
    Long-term value stability due to limited development options and popular location
