"Stunning property in a newly restored old house. Beautiful, spacious and well-appointed room. The common areas were comfortable and there was a lovely balcony. The breakfast which was beautifully served on the balcony was beyond compare. Local, fresh, and delicious Cretan treats. Archanes is close to Heraklion and the palace of Knossos and had plenty of dining options. We were in Greece for three weeks and our night at Carpe Diem was probably our best stay. Can’t recommend highly enough. "
"Super nice and cosy hotel with a nice pool. Upper floor of our room was quite narrow and not really made for cooling.
The breakfast was freshly made and really tasty! "
"The views from the hilltop were spectacular and we loved sitting outside with our delicious breakfast. Our accommodation was spacious and comfortable and as the final days of our trip this was a perfect wind down. I would love to go back for longer"
"One of the best properties to stay in Crete to get the real Cretan countryside feeling. Magnificent mountain and hill views, comfortable room and very nice people. Part of the Skalani area, good access to highways, and only 15 minutes drive to the center of Heraklion. "
"Bed was super comfy and soft loved it! Check in didn’t go very smoothly didn’t get any communication form our host until she finally answered our call at 8pm after trying to contact for 2 days. Place has everything you need condition isn’t great but all good for a 1 or 2 night stay"
"Ideal location with short walk to golden beach. Staff constantly cleaning, good variety of food. Pool superb and plenty of sun beds around the pool and surrounding grass area. "
"The property is in a suburban street - 10-15min walk from the centre BUT it is worth it. The amenities and quality of the property is some of the best you can expect. They have thought of everything. Would definately stay again "
"This was an incredible property right in the heart of Crete. The staff went above and beyond to help us, from arranging taxis to the port and airport to recommending fantastic local spots to eat. A big thank you to Giannis and Michail for their outstanding hospitality — their kindness and support truly made our stay unforgettable."

Zeus Mountain - NewTown Residences at Heraklion, Vasilies
10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful, beautiful and stylish spacious apartment with stunning views and amazing hosts. Yannis and Birgit were so kind, welcoming, friendly and generous during our short stay that we wished we could have stayed longer.
The apartment is brand new and has everything you need for long stays. It's very quiet, the bed is so comfortable and it has a working desk and private parking.
Totally recommended!!"
"A beautiful spot in a lovely village. We only wish we had stayed longer. Beds and rooms are spacious well lit and comfortable. Breakfast was plentiful with delicious fresh food with coffee and fresh orange juice. It’s the same every day so if you like variety best be prepared to cook in your room or walk. Easy but somewhat hilly walk to the main square, full of vibrant tavernas with good food. Excellent friendly service from the staff. "
KNOSOS PALACE Secluded 4* Villa, Private Pool , BEST VIEW !
10/10 Excellent
"Our host Aristeides and his wife were terrific. Very helpful and provided good suggestions. The villa was truly spectacular, better than expected. Very clean and good location. A five minute walk is a small market and also a very friendly restaurant. The Greek food was delicious. We went back on our final night to have some wine, beer and stuffed grape leaves. "
"Beds were very hard but Athena, the owner, plans to get memory foam toppers. Athena was absolutely wonderful - she greeted us with wine and cheese and hugged us all when we left. The house was incredible."
"We have just enjoyed 2 weeks at the lovely villa Stella hosted by the very helpful and friendly Alexandros.
Immaculately clean and with the basic supplies, coffee, tea, bread, home grown grapes, bread and salad ready and waiting for us on arrival. We were even treated to a bottle of the owners own grown olive oil.
Simply couldn’t ask for more.
The road to the house is very steep so a good car is essential.
Would definitely recommend.
