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.

🏡 Asomatos – Quiet village at the entrance to the Kourtaliotiko Gorge (postal code 740 60)
Asomatos is a small, traditional village in the south of the Rethymno regional unit, nestled in the wild landscape between the Kotsifou Valley and the imposing Kourtaliotiko Gorge. It lies at an altitude of approximately 260 meters in one of the most pristine areas of southern Crete, just a few kilometers from the famous seaside resort of Plakias. The village is characterized by spaciousness, nature, and a touch of seclusion – ideal for lovers of tranquil landscapes.
🏘️ Village structure & characterSmall, quiet street village: Asomatos consists of a row of houses along the country road towards Plakias – not a classic village square, but an open, spacious structure with many views.
Traditional & authentic: The buildings consist mainly of natural stone houses, some restored, some in their original condition.
Village life in harmony with nature: Here you can experience classic Crete – quiet, simple, down-to-earth.🌿 Nature & Surroundings
Located right at the entrance to the Kourtaliotiko Gorge, this place is one of the best starting points for hiking and exploring this impressive rocky landscape with its seasonal river, caves, springs, and rare birdlife.
View into the distance: The open hillside location offers a wide view of the valley, the southern coast and the surrounding mountain ridges.
Proximity to the sea: The beaches of Plakias, Damnoni or Ammoudi can be reached in about 10 minutes – ideal for a quiet residence near the sea.🏛️ History & Culture
Ecclesiastical character: The village church is the center of village life – smaller festivals and celebrations are traditionally held.
Silent history: Asomatos is not a historical highlight, but has a cultural-historical environment due to its location between several Byzantine churches and monasteries.
Part of the network of southern mountain villages: Together with neighboring villages such as Mirthios, Selia and Lefkogeia, Asomatos forms a quietly lively but functioning structure.🍷 Culinary & Supply
Regional production & self-sufficiency: In Asomatos, people live off the land – olives, herbs, goat farming, honey, small gardens.
Tavernas in the area: There are no notable restaurants in the village itself – but there are many excellent tavernas in Plakias or in the neighboring villages.
Basic amenities within easy reach: Everything you need can be reached by car in just a few minutes – in Plakias or Spili.🧭 Tips for visitors
A place for nature lovers: ideal for hikers, birdwatchers, botanists or people seeking peace and quiet.
Away from the hustle and bustle, but not isolated: Despite the tranquility, the tourist infrastructure of the south coast is quickly accessible.
Best time to travel: Spring and autumn offer optimal conditions for hiking, nature observation and relaxation.🏡 Real estate & location potential
Asomatos is ideal for people seeking the simple, authentic life of Crete – away from tourist centers, yet still easily accessible. The real estate market is small, demand is manageable, and prices are correspondingly moderate. The properties on offer are predominantly traditional village houses, some restored, as well as larger plots with older buildings.
The area has particular potential for people seeking a second home close to nature or wanting to operate a small guesthouse in a unique location. The site is also well-suited for retreats, studios, or quiet living projects.
