    Archanes Village in Crete offers an enchanting escape into the heart of Cretan culture and hospitality. Nestled amidst picturesque landscapes, this village exudes charm with its cobblestone streets, traditional architecture, and warm, welcoming atmosphere. During my stay, I was captivated by the rich history and authenticity that permeates every corner of Archanes. Exploring the village revealed hidden gems, from ancient ruins to quaint cafes serving delicious local cuisine. The accommodations were impeccable, providing a perfect blend of modern comfort and traditional charm. Whether staying in a historic hotel or a charming stone house, every detail was meticulously curated to ensure a memorable experience. The genuine hospitality of the locals further enhanced my stay. From friendly greetings in the village square to recommendations for exploring the surrounding area, their warmth made me feel like a welcomed guest. Archanes Village is a true gem in Crete, offering an authentic and unforgettable experience for travelers seeking to immerse themselves in the beauty and culture of this remarkable island. I cannot wait to return and continue exploring all that this charming village has to offer.

    Archanes is located right in the middle of nowhere.

    Archanes is located right in the middle of nowhere. Okay, it's quite close to Heraklion and the Palace of Knossos. But if you want to go to the beaches, you have a choice between terribly crowded beaches around Heraklion, and God forbid, Malia... probably the most disgustingly overcrowded beach we've ever seen, or the beaches on the south of the island, which are accessible through winding mountain roads that can be quite challenging to navigate with a weak engine, like the Peugeot 108 we rented. The best option is the beaches to the west of Matala, which are a bit over an hour away via Road 97 through Heraklion, leading to Kommos Beach just west of Matala. Matala, although charming, is terribly crowded, while Kommos offers a wide expanse of pebbles with an incredible stereo effect: the sound of waves and the "singing" of cicadas. So you can spend a day at Kommos Beach, having quite a spacious area around you and only the sounds of nature, and in the evening, you can go to Matala for dinner, enjoying a charming but not as spectacular as the Polish Baltic Sea sunsets.

    Archanes is a beautiful village not far from Iraklion.

    Archanes is a beautiful village not far from Iraklion. It has great restaurants, beautiful scenery a well curated archaeological museum and many nearby attractions including Knossos. We stay here each time we come to Crete as it is a really relaxed Cretan village. It is accessible by car and bus from Iraklion. Narrow laneways and hilly terrain make it a walker’s dream location.

    Such a lovely property - characterful, clean and comfortable. Wished we had been there in the summer so we could have enjoyed the pool. Staff very helpful. Excellent breakfast. Great restaurants in the village. We ate i Agora, which we loved. Fantastic food, excellent wine (made by the owners) and extremely good value for money. Can't recommend highly enough.

    We loved everything about this gorgeous place. The large central courtyard is inviting with orange trees and potted herbs throughout. The rooms were traditional and comfortable. Athina was warm and friendly. She was amazing spending time to chat each day and was so helpful with the best recommendations. The village is charming with lots of alleys to wander through and a shaded central square with many places to choose from to have coffee and eat. Athina sent us on our way after 3 nights in Archanes with baked goodies. Thank you

    A surprisingly beautiful hidden location in colourful Archanes. Surrounded in the green you're warmly greeted by a serene but carefully thought out 'home away from home' where, after a day of hiking or sightseeing, you can relax in a little secluded jacuzzi to expell the strain of the day. A comfortable bed to fall asleep and wake up in followed by a delicious breakfast to kickstart your day full of activities. Should you come short of something, the host will attend to your every need with a big and warm smile.

    We loved the countryside setting up on top of the hill, and overlooking distant areas to the north, east, and west. Fotini is a fantastic host, who welcomed us warmly and gave us very helpful information for a great stay. This was a perfect home base for touring all around the eastern, southeast, and northeast sections of Crete. It was nice being surrounded by Olive trees, lemon trees, apricot trees, and having a few chickens and rooster on the property ( penned up of course).

    Beautiful villas located in a picturesque scenery near the village of Archanes, in the center of Crete. I have visited many places, stayed in many hotels. This one caught my heart. Do not miss if you plan vacations in the area. Villas were fully equipped, designed in harmony with the surrounding nature and village architecture. Peaceful neighborhood beautiful gardens. Very clean! The staff was very helpful and polite.

    Great, spacious, and clean villa in a gorgeous location. If you dream of looking over the pool into the vineyards below, then this is the place for you. Renting a car is a must. Archanes is a great village and escape from Heraklion, but close enough for all the day trips. Some really good food and delicious bakeries in town, as well. Fofi was very helpful in helping us plan out stay. Look forward to staying again!

    This was a beautifully restored old house right in the center of Archanes, minutes from the town square. Our room was very quiet and comfortable. Every detail was perfect. Eleni and Maria were both so kind, helping us find parking and sorting thru my mistake of showing up a day late! Archanes was a lovely traditional village in the wine country. Definitely worth a visit, and carpe diem is the perfect place to stay.

    We loved everything about this villa! From the warm and genuine hospitality of Vasilis and his family, to the authentic accommodation (in which every detail that a traveler might need has been thoughtfully addressed), to the delicious homemade breakfast! Archanes is a wonderful mountain town that shared with us a glimpse into the true Cretan lifestyle.

    Gorgeous boutique hotel. Wonderful management. Great breakfast (worth it!). Walkable to restaurants. Classic warm hospitality. We’re poor planners and didn’t reserve any winery visits. The wonderful owner jumped on the phone and made it happen for us! Above and beyond and deeply appreciated (thank you again!)

    Lovely apartment in the centre of Archanes. Nice quirky industrial design - we loved it! A minute walk from a square with a great selection of tavernas, but the apartment itself is quiet. The landlady is lovely.
