  • Fields separate this lowrise hotel from the nearby beach. Its rooms surround a large pool (with poolside bar) and some suites have their own small pools. Other facilities include a gym, sauna, tennis court and playground.

  • Anchor Villa, Vamos

    Anchor Villa (3 double bedrooms) is a traditionally built, detached, Villa situated on the edge of Vamos town – the ‘capital’ of the Apokoronas region in North West Crete. The Villa is individually designed having panoramic views over Souda Bay and of the White Mountains. The property is well equipped and offers superb family accommodation.

  • Anna Apartments, Paleochora

    Smothered with flowers and greenery, this attractive little complex is on a quiet side street close to the beach. All apartments have one or two bedrooms, living room, kitchen and verandah. There’s also a children’s play area.

  • Aphrodite, Sougia

    Pretty pension in a quiet, leafy lane just off Sougia’s somnolent main street. Clean, affordable rooms with blue-painted balconies, marble-topped tables and lots of flowers.

  • A complex of stone houses with an array of traditional crafts, from pottery and icon painting to basket weaving and embroidery. Traditional music and dance performed nightly.

  • A settlement of 10 adobe-style cottages for lovers of the simple life, with water from the well and paraffin lamps for lighting (though bathroom lights and fridges in each house use solar energy). The lack of 21st-century gadgets is truly relaxing.

  • This hotel overlooks a fine, sandy beach and has two pools, a tennis court and a range of other land and water sports, including a scuba diving centre. It also has a mini-market and a children’s playground.

  • Set in the grounds of a small organic farm where fruit trees grow on the Lasithi slopes. Twin-bed plus double room, shower, kitchen, dining room, and living room with fireplace and terrace.

  • On the fringe of Siteia and just a few paces from the beach, the Bay View has 10 apartments, most with twin beds and sofa-bed, and all with full kitchen facilities. Each room has a balcony or verandah.

  • the family that own this hotel complex really made it for us...and despite the name...hahah.. it was a really wholesome experience...apart from the late night free metaxa!!!!! there was an eat as much as you like bbq and lots of other things to make you feel special and always a reving coffe in the morning...
