Dear Guest, We would like to thank you for your
preference in spending your holiday in the Traditional Villas of Mavrikiano, Elounda. We trust that the quality offered meets with
your requirements and living standards.
Argiro Kambeli
The owners of these old stone built Villas have
admiration and respect for their heritage, thus the need
to revive and preserve the past. Acceding to the
requirements of present times, these villas have been
renovated and modernized. Realistically, we believe that
it is rather difficult to make a fortune by renting these
old Villas.
It is only therefore an expression of our affection for the preservation of old times, a small token of our debt to the history of the island and to preserve our identity from the concrete monstrosities, the new buildings of today, constructed with little taste or respect for the environment.
Nowadays the thinking, living creatures are returning to nature and to their roots. The Stone House you are staying in is our recognition of our Ancestors and paying our respects for the World they have made and we are now able to enjoy.
Elounda being at the bottom of the Gulf of Mirabello
enjoys unique Seaside, Sandy and rocky beaches together with lots
of green being full of almond, carube, and olive trees.
At the entrance of the Gulf proudly stands the Venitian fort on the island of Spinaloga and daily boat trips are organized on hourly basis. For a rambler is a paradise, especially the walk on the seaside Elounda - Placa (5klms).
For those with archaeological interests the
unique
excavated Minoan city of Gournia is 30 klm away as well as the
Third Minoan Palace of Malia (also 35 klm away) are a must to
visit.
Orthodox Monasteries are impressive, and within the area such as Areti, Kritsa , and Toplou.
In most of the cases we are able to quote for you a
charter or a regular flight from your Home to
Airport of Heraklion
Crete direct flight or through Athens.
The nearest Airport from the Traditional Houses is Heraklion International Airport which is km 75 away from Elounda.
