Irisma Luxury Villa with private pool, hotel in Archanes

5.9 miles from The Minoan Palace of Knossos in Archanes, Irisma Luxury Villa with private pool features accommodations with access to a hot tub.

A delightful, pristine property. Thoughtfully designed and well equipped. The apartment is spacious and has a lovely pool and immaculate terrace It is only a short walk through residential streets to the town which has ample amenities including a specialist Cretan cheese shop. Take a longer walk from the door to reach the church on top of the hill opposite the property, or drive 15 minutes to Knossos. Our stay was too short and we would return to this property without hesitation.

Villa Kazantzakis, hotel in Archanes

Villa Kazantzakis is a holiday home featuring a garden with an outdoor pool, set in Archanes. The property is 6.2 mi from Heraklio Town and features views of the mountains.

The Villa is wonderful, just as looks at the pictures, also clean and all the facilities are in perfect condition. We had star type of traveling all over the Crete due to the wining central location of the Villa. Just sorry that we didn't have enough time to enjoy the place due to our intensive plan for this vacation. The staff is very friendly and responsive (the small problem with the lights in the kitchen was fixed immediately once communicated), thanks a lot! Highly recommend and we will be tentatively visiting again.

CARPE DIEM HOTEL, hotel in Archanes

Housed in a historic building, the recently renovated CARPE DIEM HOTEL provides accommodations with a terrace and free Wifi.

We loved the accommodations, the tranquility of the setting, and the small village itself. The owners poured their heart and soul into Carpe Diem - and it shows. Breakfast was delicious and offered on a beautiful plant-filled terrace with morning sun. Heavenly!

    Archanes Village in Crete offers an enchanting escape into...

    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.

    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.
