    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.

  • 🏡 Pitsidia (postcode 702 00) – Authentic village life on Kommos beach
    Pitsidia is a charming village in southern Crete that has retained its original character despite its popularity. Situated on the edge of the fertile Messara Plain and just a stone's throw from the ancient Kommos beach, it offers a unique blend of history, nature, and Cretan joie de vivre. The village is characterized by lovingly restored stone houses and flower-adorned lanes that lead to one of the most beautiful village squares in the region. Overlooking the majestic Ida Mountains and the Libyan Sea, Pitsidia is a magnet for independent travelers seeking the authentic Crete away from the major tourist resorts.

    📜 Character & Lifestyle
    The atmosphere in Pitsidia is characterized by a deep sense of serenity and warm hospitality. For decades, the village has attracted an international crowd who appreciate the tranquility and unique energy of the south. Here, one can enjoy breakfast in a traditional kafenion, observe the vibrant activity in the main square, and experience the timeless magic of the Cretan way of life. The proximity to the famous beaches of Matala and Kommos allows for a lifestyle that perfectly blends experiencing nature with the convivial atmosphere of village life. It is a place for gourmets, horseback riders, and culture enthusiasts who want to fully embrace the freedom of the south.

    📍 Location
    Pitsidia is located in the southwest of the Heraklion prefecture. Its strategic position offers quick access to both the archaeological sites of Phaistos and the unspoiled coastal areas of the south coast.

    🚗 Distances
    Heraklion (center): 59,4 km | 1 hour 2 minutes
    Kastelli Airport: 73,3 km | 1 hour 25 minutes

    🌿 Nature & Excursion Destinations
    The area around Pitsidia is rich in natural wonders and historical treasures. The kilometer-long sandy beach of Kommos, an important nesting site for sea turtles, is just a few minutes away and offers tranquility and crystal-clear water. The legendary caves of Matala are only 4 km away. Hikers and horseback riders will find diverse trails in the rolling hills of the Messara Plain and the gorges of the Ida Mountains. A trip to the Minoan palace complex of Phaistos also offers profound insights into the cradle of European civilization.

    🧱 Real estate market
    The real estate market in Pitsidia is extremely vibrant and offers excellent opportunities for discerning buyers. Traditional stone houses, which can be transformed into luxurious retreats with modern amenities, are particularly sought after. Thanks to its prime location on the edge of the village, Pitsidia is also ideally suited for the construction of a custom villa. A modern luxury villa with a private swimming pool and panoramic views of the sea or mountains represents a sound investment with high rental potential. The combination of authentic village charm and proximity to the most popular beaches in the south makes Pitsidia a top location for holiday properties.
