The 4-star traditional apartments lie on a hillside overlooking Archanes & Youhtas sacred mountain. This original Cretan mansion was built in 1890 and was renovated during 2000 and 2015. The foundations of this old house, its stone walls (60-80cm thick), its frame and woodwork have remained intact. We have tried to respect and preserve the architectural arrangement of the apartments and all other spaces using old building materials to obtain all the amenities that are necessary for a comfortable accommodation, attractively restored into just 6 exclusive apartments. It is an alternative proposal of vacation, for people showing sensitivity for nature, relaxation, exercise, nutrition with pure local products, entertainment and communication with the local people, and time for reflection.

Had an amazing stay at the Villa! The host is very friendly and always happy to help! It's a peaceful and quiet location that has all the amenities you would need. The pool is a major plus for this place! The bed was so comfortable that my boyfriend even said he had one of his best sleeps here! Overall 10 out of 10 and will definitely stay at Villa Archanes again (even if it's just for a good sleep!)

Open hearted hospitality, big breakfasts, in a beautiful little town. Excellent local restaurants in the nearby town square where you can view how a community can live in harmony. Highly recommend. Leftidis was a gracious host with immaculate English.

I stayed in Villa Archanes for 4 days and I had a great time! The villa is very nice with a small swimming pool in the yard (see photos)! The owner (Vassilis) and the staff (Eleni) have been very nice, friendly and helpful throughout my stay! The apartment was very nice with all the necessary amenities! Archanes is a very nice and alive village, and at a very good location: away from the city of Heraklion, but close enough to be there in 10-15 mins drive, close to the archaelogical place of Knossos, and on the mountains. It feels that you are in an island, it is relaxing and you enjoy the Cretan hospitality! I will definitely visit again and I will stay at Villa Archanes again!

Nice renovated house around a pool. Very friendly owner and staff. Breakfast is served at the pool, all typical Greek sweet bakery and salty dishes, with fresh pressed orange juice. Can only recommend
