“Lovely peaceful old property.”
Great location, minutes from the centre of town but also very peaceful at night. This old house is full of character.

The Kitchen was new, modern and well equipped with popular brands. This was the best place in the entire house. Also the house was spacious and was split in 2 levels with picturesque furniture of local traditional design. The house is "hidden" few minutes walk from Archanes center, with a garden surrounding next to a church. It has 2 external balconies one in each floor.

Beautiful cottage with a real authentic experience. Great location in the old town and the cottage was so cute! Breakfast each morning delivered by Maria was a real standout. Very peaceful stay and getting lost in the streets of Archanes was a lot of fun.

“wish I could live in this place”
+ after 4 days of walking, I think this is the best location in Archanes: completely peaceful and silent corner behind a mystical old church, but only 20 m from the main street! + The best restaurants (Spitiko and Filosofos) and excellent bakeries are nearby + apartment is cool even on sunny days + Atmosphere of an old building! You can have a perfect holiday just by sitting in the sofa and terrace + all things in apartment are HQ and good style + Kitchen had everything, even the coffee was best quality! + The guy who brings the keys (you phone him) was very friendly and helpful; he provided fruits and wine (again, wine was excellent!) + nice hiking possibilities, but Heraklion is just a 25 drive min away

“Cozy, authentic hide-away with wonderful breakfast delivered right to the house!”
Michalis welcomed us and was quick to answer with any questions we had (including the location of a 24-hour clinic right around the corner). Maria delivered delicious, homemade breakfast each morning. We loved its antiques and garden and that it was hidden away.

I wish we had booked a whole week here. We thought we'd stay here to go to the vineyards and olive oil tasting places, turned out Archanes is a destination in and of itself made that much better by the amazing Kalimera Village stay. It was a fairytale setting. Michalis was extremely helpful, and Maria cooked an unbelievable breakfast. It's an older property, restored to mimic what it would have been decades ago, so keep that in mind. We also loved the small touches left for us to use (sewing kits, soaps, nail files, etc). I would love nothing more than to come back again and stay here for much longer.
