Car Rental in Stavros, Crete
New 2024 to 2026 cars, no hidden fees. Pick your dates and find your car in seconds.
Stavros sits at the tip of the Akrotiri peninsula, its sheltered lagoon framed by the bare mountain made famous by the finale of Zorba the Greek. It is only minutes from Chania Airport, but the dramatic Seitan Limania coves and the peninsula's monasteries are far easier to reach with your own car.
We meet you at Chania Airport (CHQ) on Akrotiri — just minutes away — or deliver the car to your Stavros or Akrotiri villa for a small fee.
