Quiet place in interesting city
Nice town, nice host. Heat worked well in winter. Be careful driving in however, since many of the streets are narrow. Fun city overall, and I recommend this place.

Perfect.
Fabulous! Excellent host. He upgraded us because we were traveling in the low season and nobody was staying in that apartment. Sparking clean and he gave an excellent dinner recommendation to Kritamon. Would stay again.

Lovely accommodation in an amazing village
Three of us booked a two bedroom apartment and we were so happy with it. Everything was clean and comfortable and we easily made it our home away from home for three nights. It was however difficult to find initially with Google maps sending us through the tiny - and I mean extremely tiny and steep - paved streets of the village. But that is because it is a traditional village and this is what you get. We didn't use the pool as the weather had changed by it looked delightful. I would not hesitate staying here again, for the hospitality and comfort of the rooms

Absolutely 5 star!
We stayed at Villa Archanes for 2 nights at the end of our holiday. We couldn't have chosen better! The villa is beautiful, very peaceful, and the service we received from Vasilis was first class. There are 6 rooms around the courtyard pool. All are traditional in style but very high spec, immaculately clean and with everything you need for either a short or a longer stay. We didn't pay for breakfast as we had food left over from our stay, but Vasilis provided coffee, biscuits and Greek yoghurt. Our flight didn't leave till late, and he allowed us to stay longer (as the next people were not arriving until late, too) and he also arranged for our bags to be collected to go to the airport, and then we were collected from a local restaurant. Nothing was too much trouble, and we really felt that we had struck gold. We will definitely recommend and return.

Our stay was wonderful! The property and owner were fantastic. Fresh lemonade and raki for later was a plus. The owner even gave us a mini usb cable to keep for our gps system that would not charge in the car anymore! Wish we could have stayed longer. 10/10

Séjour en Crète septembre 2020
Hôtel très agréable. Studio très bien équipé. Belle petite piscine. Nous avions une chambre en haut avec un escalier assez raide. Il y a d'autres studios sans cet inconvénient. Bien situé sur les hauteurs de Archanes avec accès à pied au centre. Ruelles étroites pour arriver en passant par le village, préférez un contournement pour arriver à l'hôtel
