This little hotel is absolutely great! It is operated by an older couple and they are so very welcoming! Our apartment was nice, cozy and clean. Location is quiet, if you are like us and don't mind hearing roosters, goats, and other animals/birds sounds, as this hotel is located in the small Greek village. Restaurant is on site and ALL meals are prepared by the lady-owner, so dining experience cannot get any more authentic than that. Oh, and pricing is VERY affordable. Overall, we loved this place and would definitely come back!…This little hotel is absolutely great! It is operated by an older couple and they are so very welcoming!

Great way to enjoy living on a mountain in a luxurious villa. It was somewhat difficult to find but once found it turned out to be a gem. The staff was amazing and the spoke English. The room, gardens, and pool were very well maintained. The road from the village was over 1 km, narrow and winding up a hill (the only drawback to staying there). For 10 euros you can have a hardy tradition breakfeast at the hotel. We would the go to Heraklion for the day (approx. 30 minutes away) to browse and visit museums. We also visited Knossos in the late afternoon when there was less heat and tourists. In the evenings we would have dinner at the village center. There were a number of excellent restaurants. At the end of the meal, they would provide a complimentary dessert along with raking (Cretan moonshine). …Great way to enjoy living on a mountain in a luxurious villa.

very pleasant and helpful owners. Well situated in a beautiful country region about 20 minutes from Heraklion. Shops and cafes a short drive away: actually walkable if you want. Accommodation is well equipped, even a BBQ. 50m from a small winery. Try a wine tasting! …
