Manoli met us and told us a little of the history of the place and showed us around. The place had a historical feeling and lots of space. Each sleeping area had its own bathroom for added comfort and privacy. Good wifi.

The property is a very tastefully renovated old cretan house in a lovely quiet village. That said the nearest beach is a ten minute drive and we walked to it one day. Highly recommended.

Die beiden Häuser haben wenige Apartments und sind liebevoll im kretischen Still von Manolis, dem Eigentümer, renoviert worden. Eine persönliche Betreuung von Manolis und seiner Frau Eva sind selbstverständlich. Wer eine Unterkunft in einem richtigen, kretischen Dorf sucht, ist hier bestens aufgehoben. Ich wurde zu zwei Familienfeiern eingeladen und auch mit selbstgebackenem Gebäck verwöhnt. Sehr gut auch für Alleinreisende, die keine Partymeile brauchen. Man braucht einen Mietwagen. In Vafes gibt es drei kleine Tavernen und ein kleines Geschäft. In Vrisses, 10 min mit dem Auto, bekommt man alles: zwei kleine Supermärkte, zwei leckere Bäckereien, Tankstelle und einen netten Platz an einem Fluss mit Restaurants. Der nächste (und ich denke auch der beste und längste Sandstrand der Umgebung) ist in Georgiopolis, 20 min mit dem Auto. Dort gibt es viele Restaurants, eine Apotheke und Geschäfte (auch mit Touribedarf). Ausflüge (Boot, Samariaschlucht etc. kann man von hier auch buchen. Weitere Sehenswürdigkeiten: über die Berge (45 min), Chania (Hafen, Museen, Galerien, Alstadt, Shopping, 40 min), Aptera (30 min, röm. Ruinen), Kournas (Binnensee, 20 min), Vamos (alte Häuser), Imbrosschlucht (30 min) Vorsichtig im Dunklen: es gibt viele Tiere, die unvermittelt auftauchen (Katzen, Hunde, Schafe, Ziegen, Massen an Igel, Dachs, Marder etc.) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 25 nights in Apr 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gast 11 Dec 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Traditionelles, kleines Haus Wer nicht unbedingt neben dem Strand wohnen muss und eher mal typisch griechisch, ist hier sehr gut aufgehoben. Persönliche Betreuung (ich bekam zweimal hausgemachten Kuchen und Plätzchen) und Lage mitten im Dorf Vafes zeichnen dieses kleine Haus mit ca. 3 Appartments aus. Das Haus wurde schön restauriert (tolle Holzdecke) und man blickt gegenüber auf die Berge. Die Soundkulisse zumindest im November: Schafe mit Glocken und Lämmern, Vogelgezwitscher und hin und wieder Hundegebell. In die Berge kann man vom Haus aus Wandern. Ein Mietwagen ist ein Muss. In 10 min ist man in Vrysses. Dort kann man einkaufen. Außerdem gibt es hervorragende Plätzchen in zwei Konditoreien zu kaufen. Nach Georgiopolis sind es nochmal 10 min mit einem tollen, langen Sandstrand. Im Winter gibt es einen kleinen Minimarkt und ein paar Restaurants, im Sommer sind viele, kleine Läden geöffnet. Von Vafes ist man in 20 min in den Bergen in Askifou, in 30 min bis Aptera (römische Ruinen), 40 Min bis Chania (toll zum shoppen, netter Hafen), 40 min bis zum Flughafen. Das fahren im Dunkeln auf griechischen Dorfstraßen ist gewöhnungsbedürftig: Katzen, Hunde und Ziegen, kleine Lämmer und Kurven tauchen unvermittelt auf. Also eher vorsichtig! ##### Gast Stayed 14 nights in Nov 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### peter 21 Jul 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Mooie ligging Zeer aangename ontvangst.

Von hier aus lassen sich die Bucht von Ballos, Chania, Rethymno, Springs von Argiroupoli, Kournas See, Samaria Schlucht mit dem Auto bequem erreiche, um nur einige zu nennen. Grund für die Wahl war auch der Wunsch mal abseits von den touristischen Locations zu sein und das Leben eines Bergdorfes zu erleben. Der freundliche Gastgeber Manolis hat uns bei der Ankunft in der gegenüberliegenden Taverna empfangen und zum Haus geführt. Wir waren von der Größe und der Ausstattung des Hauses mit vielen Details aus der Vergangenheit positiv überrascht. Zu den netten Add-On's zählte ein Fläschchen Willkommensraki (der beste, den wir auf Kreta probiert haben), hauseigene Olivenöi und der Wein. Manolis hat uns auch mit den Produkten aus dem eigenen Garten, wie frisch gepflückte Aprikosen, versorgt. Morgens und abends haben wir in der gegenüberliegenden Taverna gegessen und waren von der Essensqualität und der Gastfreundschaft der netten Stavrula begeistert. Alles in einem - ein wunderbar gelungener Aufenthalt. Wir kommen gerne wieder. ##### Eugen ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 16 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 26 Oct 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dimitrios 29 Dec 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Dimitrios ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Almyrida Village & Water Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Almyrida-Bay.h5272291.Hotel-Information) > > [Apollo Hotel II](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Apollo-Hotel-II.h20843078.Hotel-Information) > > [Orpheas Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Orpheas-Resort-Adults-Only.h2059170.Hotel-Information) > > [Mitsis Royal Mare](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Mitsis-Royal-Mare.h1181666.Hotel-Information) > > [Harmony Boutique Resort - Adults only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Cooee-Corissia-Harmony-Hotel-Adults-Only.h13270455.Hotel-Information) > > [Almyrida Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Almyrida-Resort.h16637183.Hotel-Information) > > [Mitsis Selection Laguna](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Mitsis-Laguna-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h4260878.Hotel-Information) > > [Panorama Plus](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Panorama-Plus.h34120337.Hotel-Information) > > [La Mer Resort & Spa Crete](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-La-Mer-Resort-Spa-Adults-Only.h24462590.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Senses Resort & Spa Crete, Curio Collection Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mylopotamos-Hotels-The-Royal-Senses-Resort-Spa-Crete.h42627090.Hotel-Information) > > [Georgioupolis Resort & Aqua Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Georgioupolis-Resort-Aqua-Park.h3525603.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Elephant - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Blue-Elephant.h46990421.Hotel-Information) > > [Creta Maris Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Creta-Maris-Resort-All-Inclusive.h541819.Hotel-Information) > > [Pepper Sea Club Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Pepper-Sea-Club-Hotel-Adults-Only.h42731949.Hotel-Information) > > [3 Villas Next to Each Other with Pool & Sea View](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-3-Villas-Next-Each-Other.h53159340.Hotel-Information) > > [Corissia Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Corissia-Beach-Hotel.h520936.Hotel-Information) > > [Pilot Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Pilot-Beach-Resort.h1096083.Hotel-Information) > > [Rimondi Grand Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Rimondi-Grand-Resort-Spa.h4925255.Hotel-Information) > > [Atlantica Caldera Palace - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Atlantica-Caldera-Palace-All-Inclusive.h35181792.Hotel-Information) > > [Fereniki Holiday Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Fereniki-Resort-Spa.h2571637.Hotel-Information) > > [Anemos Luxury Grand Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Anemos-Luxury-Grand-Resort.h13097325.Hotel-Information) > > [Leptos Panorama Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chania-Hotels-Panorama.h691965.Hotel-Information) > > [NEMA Design Hotel & Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-NEMA-Design-Hotel-Spa.h12376062.Hotel-Information) > > [Eliros Mare Beachfront Poem Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Eliros-Mare.h9470135.Hotel-Information) > > [Minos Imperial Beach Resort Milatos Crete](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Radisson-Blu-Beach-Resort-Milatos.h660214.Hotel-Information) > > [Georgioupolis Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Georgioupolis-Beach-Hotel.h4508752.Hotel-Information) > > [Cretan Beach Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Cretan-Beach-Resort.h40232453.Hotel-Information) > > [Mythos Palace Resort & Spa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Mythos-Palace-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h1252683.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Kalyves Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Apokoronas-Hotels-Hotel-Kalyves-Beach.h1451631.Hotel-Information) > > [Senseana Sea Side Resort & Aquadventure - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Club-Marmara-Golden-Star.h4886851.Hotel-Information)
