Traditional Cretan Houses

Heraklion

"The house was a lovely old Cretan house renovated to a high standard, and Popi was a wonderful, helpful, and knowledgeable host - really friendly and full of suggestions of where to go next. You will need to have a car to get around as it is not at all central, and do not expect a modern building - but it was full of character and the aircon worked very well, so in my eyes it was perfect! I would happily stay here again, and hope to do so some day in the coming years."

Top Magarikarion Hotel Reviews

Atali Grand Resort

10/10 Excellent

"I wouldn’t go to all inclusive to Greece again, maybe just with breakfast included for convenience, because the food outside in the restaurants is muuuch much much better and that’s one of the ways to experience Greece. The quality was ok, but nothing compared to traditional amazing flavours in the restaurants. Also the prices of food in the restaurants is very reasonable, 40-65eur for 2 people you fill your tummies :)"

Nostos Beach Boutique Hotel

6/10 Okay

"First of all, we stayed in early May when it was quiet. The (standard) room we stayed in was very good - spacious, clean, tasteful decor, good bed, dark and quiet. The breakfast was very good and the bar overlooking the beach also good. Otherwise there are a few things to note: The bathroom is small, compared with the room itself. The beach is overrun with sun beds, making it feel claustrophobic. There is a space at each end if you want to lay in the sand. The water is very clear and clean. You have to pay for the sun beds. The hotel receptionist says the sun beds are separate from the hotel, even though the sun beds on the beach are the same as around the pool ... and the guy that runs them eats in the restaurant each morning ... but it's a separate business, apparently. I've not stayed at a boutique beach hotel where you have to still pay to use a sun bed, hence the downrating. There's no parking."

Astoria

10/10 Excellent

"The room was modern and spacious, balconies with a sea & mountain view. The buffet breakfast was fresh, with hot & cold choices, great coffee! Staff superb. Guests friendly with kind hearts. My wife was surprised when two Dutch couples presented her with a small gift, singing Happy Birthday on her birthday. Parking on site. Close to all amenities. Shout out to Anna & Constantina."

Idi Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"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."

Villa with private pool & sea view for absolute privacy and serenity.

10/10 Excellent

"We had the most amazing stay from start to finish. We got there after midnight due to flight times, but were offered a guide to get us there or clear directions with a code for a key box. When we got there, the property had outside lights to guide us in and a fridge with a home cooked meal in, snacks, wine, olive oil and fruit. :-). So welcoming. The next day when we woke up we realised how beautiful the villa was and the views are just stunning. There is a twisty mountain road to get up to the villa but it’s very quiet. You’ll see more goats than cars. Take your time and enjoy the scenery and all is well. The pool was spacious and clean. The bed was comfortable, the showers wonderful and it was very well equipped. The villa is within half an hour of Rethymno which is delightful. We were also within an easy drive of Knossos, Chania, Heraklion and Lake Kournas. One day however, we just stayed home and enjoyed the relaxation of the villa. :-)As we had a super late flight home and as no one was due to arrive the day we left, our hosts kindly agreed that we could stay way beyond the check out time and enjoy our last day without rushing. We stayed until 4pm and we are so appreciative of the kindness. We even received a parting gift. I cannot recommend Harkia Villas enough. Simply stunning. X. "

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Magarikarion?

The best area to stay in Magarikarion is generally within the village itself, or in the immediate surrounding countryside for those seeking a more secluded experience.

Magarikarion village is a small, traditional Cretan settlement. It's characterised by its narrow, winding streets, stone houses, and a central square where locals gather. You'll find a few tavernas serving local cuisine and a small mini-market for essentials. The village offers a true taste of rural Cretan life, with olive groves and vineyards surrounding it.

Couples looking for a peaceful escape will appreciate staying directly in Magarikarion village. It's an ideal base for exploring the nearby archaeological site of Phaistos and the beautiful beaches of the south coast, such as Matala and Kommos, which are a short drive away. The quiet evenings and traditional atmosphere make it great for relaxation.

For those prioritising privacy and expansive views, staying in a villa just outside the village is an excellent option. These properties often feature private pools and offer stunning vistas of the Messara Valley and the Libyan Sea.

When is the best time to go to Magarikarion?

The best time to go to Magarikarion is during the late spring (May to early June) or early autumn (September to October) when the weather is pleasantly warm, and the island is less crowded.

Late spring offers comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 20°C to 28°C, making it ideal for exploring the historical sites and enjoying the natural beauty without the intense summer heat. The wildflowers are in bloom, and the sea is warm enough for swimming. It's a lovely time for couples looking for a romantic escape or solo travellers seeking a peaceful retreat.

Early autumn brings similar pleasant temperatures, usually between 22°C and 29°C, and the sea remains warm for swimming. The main tourist season has tapered off, meaning fewer crowds at popular attractions and a more relaxed atmosphere. This period is excellent for those who appreciate good food and wine, as it coincides with grape harvests and local festivals.
