Beautiful village of Archanes. The hosts were lovely people and the husband spoke good English. Breakfast, on the morning we ate it, was very good. The location, although a bit hard to find, was beautiful.

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.JenniferAustralia - 10Scored 10

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.

- 9.5Scored 9.5ExceptionalRated exceptional· 15 reviewsThe 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.AlexanderIsrael
- From € 129.30 per night9.9Scored 9.9ExceptionalRated exceptional· 21 reviewsBeautiful room ! Stayed in the sympathetically restored house. Fantastic standard, clean, fresh, tastefully furnished in a simple but artful Cretan style. (Restoration finished Sep 2023) Archanes is such a pretty old village, retaining much of its historic charm. Carpe Diem is an excellent choice to use as a base for visiting Knossos and other areas of Iraklion . We also explored beaches to the north, some with Tavernas and beach bars offering free sun beds to customers. We hope to return soon 👍
ChrisUnited Kingdom - 9.4Scored 9.4SuperbRated superb· 166 reviewsGreat, 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!BrennaUnited States

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.JudyUnited States
