Summary: We can’t emphasis enough how we throughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Athena, a very peaceful and beautiful location. Gouves is a 25 minute walk away, with a small sandy bay. There are plenty of places to eat and drink, and little local shops any anything else you may require. We would highly recommend this property

Summary: We loved this apartment! It's beautifully set up within a small development of apartments and houses with a central garden with olive trees and flowering shrubs (all tastefully illuminated at night). If anything, the listing description is too modest. The newly-installed wi-fi worked really well and allowed us sufficient bandwidth to watch movies in the evening. We found the apartment in a clean and well-maintained condition. The kitchen had a good cooker, microwave, kettle and coffee-maker and was well-equipped for those who enjoy cooking whilst on holiday, although we found plenty of nice places to eat out in as well. About half an hour's drive from Heraklion airport, this is a great base from which to explore eastern and central Crete. A hire car is essential if you are to make the most of the opportunities of the area. We went to Heraklion, Agious Nicolaus, Malia Palace, Knossos, the ruined village of Gournia and the cave of Skotiron. Cretan driving is eccentric for those used to northern European expectations, but safe enough. Alex, the site manager, struck the perfect balance between being helpful and always on call if needed but also respected our privacy and didn't intrude. Thanks, Alex! Do ring for directions once you are within a few miles of the apartment, as Cretan road signs can leave some things creatively vague. We are interested in archeological things in general , so Crete represents a fascinating range of possibilities in that respect. Knossos was an obvious highlight for that reason, but the archaeological museum in Heraklion is an absolute must if you want to see artefacts from the Minoan period really well presented in a wonderful modern building. We also found Gournia a really thought-provoking site in a beautiful setting. We hardly scraped the surface of what there is to see in Crete and we'll certainly be returning.
