Property info

Sclopa the Laography Project in the heart of the traditional settlement of Gribiliana is the result of a brave restoration effort of a lodge dating back to the end of the 19th century, with 5 rooms and suites. The restoration was carried out with respect for the identity of the building and a desire to preserve every element of it. The restoration, preservation and promotion of the folklore and architectural elements of the guesthouse was signed by the Historian-Archaeologist Stelios Fagas. All the rooms are equipped with sleeping systems cocomat queen size, pool towels & bathrobes, bath slippers all cocomat 100%cotton. Heated pool and jacuzzi are offered to our guests in the central courtyard of the building. Welcome!

Neighborhood info

The settlement of Gribiliana shows signs of habitation from the Late Minoan III period. During the Venetian and Ottoman occupation it was a stronghold of the Venetians and Ottomans thanks to its privileged position and thus to a large extent the settlement has already acquired the form we find today. The traditional character of the settlement, which is largely preserved with the stone buildings with dome-shaped roofs, the large arched courtyard doors and the narrow alleys that serve only pedestrians and bicycles, create an authentic bohemian - nostalgic atmosphere.
