"Great stay! Would recommend"

"Vagelis was a wonderful host and his villa and garden were perfect for our 3-generation family holiday. We arrived at a very unsocial hour and Vagelis was there to welcome us and share delicious local provisions to start our holiday.Highly recommended."

"The villas was very clean, spacious and modern. We were there March 12-16 so very early in the season. The pools were closed which I didn’t know until getting there as it was shown when I booked that heated pools were all year round. There was apparently a sandstorm from Africa for a week prior to us coming which then closed the pools. The host offered us an extra night free however we already had our flights back to Athens booked so couldn’t take advantage of that. Michaelis offered a dinner for the 4 of us so we took him up on that offer and it was excellent. The location was pretty good, 20 min from Heraklion, beaches, about 40 min to the CreteAquarium. It’s a pretty quiet area that you are in, the locals are quite friendly and helpful I would stay again as long as the pool was open as my kids felt the disappointment with it not being open. "

"Very characterful but be prepared for stairs and steep slopes "

"Very nice room with a lovely view over the vines. Breakfast was wonderful and generous with everything homemade, served on the private terrace. A short drive to tavernas in the local villages, and only about 15 mins into Heraklion."

"We stayed in a standard room in the main building and it was so lovely! The breakfast was awesome and the walk down to the village was convenient. This hotel has a lovely restaurant attached with great food. Zaros Lake is just around the corner. My favorite part was the spring water running down the side of the road. A very lovely village to visit on your trip around Crete."

"Our stay at Troullos Traditional Houses was wonderful! Our host Athena was fantastic - so helpful, welcoming and kind. We felt very well taken care of and supported in our questions. Our lodging was fully equipped with a small kitchen and everything we might need. The patio overlooking Mt Juctas was a delight in addition to the beautiful courtyard. Highly recommend! "

"Nice family b&b in midle of Zaros. The cherry on top of the cake was the roof pool "

"Stunning villa, beautiful views, perfect hosts! Absolutely loved this holiday and would go back again. You definitely need a car and it’s about a 10 minute drive to shops and restaurants in the centre. I would describe this villa and pool as a little bit of paradise, especially with the peacocks roaming around . Kids loved feeding the cats and the kitten. It was just a lovely holiday! Thank you Stella and your husband for your great hospitality "
