The Villa is wonderful and has stunning views of the surrounding hills. Our hosts were lovely people and could not have been more accommodating; their local knowledge of restaurants, beaches and places to visit was extremely helpful.

The village of Krousonas is charming. We had the luck to visit during a local festival and it was the highlight of our trip. It is in a perfect location - away from busy Iraklio, with a beautiful road leading up to the village (<20min). The property is somewhat secluded, near the top of the village. Feels secure, with a large door/wall providing an entrance. The bedroom is large, with plenty windows, and a very nice balcony allowing you to see the village, Iraklio and the ocean from far. The host is responsive.
Set in Pentamodi, Pendamodi Vintage House is a recently renovated accommodation, 19 km from Heraklion Archaeological Museum and 21 km from The Palace of Knossos.

House was super clean. Our host met us to check we had everything we need and to explain the heating. It had turned cold so we were really pleased that there was central heating and it was turned on. And an open fire all ready for us to light.
Our host welcomed us with a lot of fruit, perfect avocados and raki. We were told to pick fruit from the garden.
There was a problem with the Internet and Greg tried really hard to fix it. He does not live nearby but came back the next day with a new box.
Greg had provided me information on places to go before we arrived. And recommended restaurants during our stay.
The whole family could not do enough to make sure we enjoyed our stay.
The accommodation is very comfortable with an open plan kitchen, dining room and lounge area. There is one bathroom in the property and one across the courtyard. We did not use the courtyard in February (!), but it would be a lovely place to sit and eat when warmer.
Pendamondi is a lovely small traditional village. The small shop sold basic supplies and was friendly. We ate twice at the local taverna. The food was special and we were looked after. Music on Saturday. Booking recommended.
Altogether highly recommended.

The apartment itself serves its purposes, it has all you need if you want to cook, make coffee, do laundry and iron clothes. Aircons in both rooms worked well. Water pressure in the shower is good. We found a foldable baby cot in the closet that was not mentioned which was nice. And there was a little bit of laundry detergent abailable + there is a drying rack at the patio. Also there is a private parking spot right in front of the house where you can park your car. Note that this rental unit is the upper floor of a 2-storey house: the ground floor of this house is a separate rental unit so the garden mentioned in the description belongs more to the ground floor guests, their seating and outside dining area are in the middle of the garden so it actually feels like intruding going down there.

We were with 4 kids (0.4, 2, 5, 8) and had a great expirience!
Good location, easy to find and not too far from the airport. Staff very friendly and helpful, food very good and excellent breakfast. Swimming pool was clean. Villa itself was clean as we're the surrounding gardens. Lovely view. Evening meal was nice and very good value. Georgia our host was great, best part of our stay.
Lovely and clean, well decorated and equipped villa. Located in a quiet little village near Heraklion, you get to experience the true hospitality and kindness of the Cretan people and we felt like locals when we left. The rooms are well equipped and nicely decorated. The jacuzzi is relaxing and the pool is very refreshing. Our hosts were wonderful. For good food at great prices as well as great coffee.....go to the taverna across the road. A wonderful experience.
Pool is beautiful, especially at night. The breakfast space in the shade of the trees with the amazing view is fantastic. The hotel is constructed like a small traditional village which gives it this delightful rustic feel. Perfect for getting away from it all.
Atmosphere! Built to imitate a village, and each Sunday and Tuesday they re-create traditional village life for a busload of visitors, and we enjoyed observing the activity Sunday morning. Good food each breakfast, also dinner, and one evening we shared the best cheese-stuffed peppers appetizer! The pool was lovely though we didn't take time for swimming while there. The view from the eating patio is lovely, shaded by trees, so nice to stay there for several days as we visited Crete.
Super quiet, comfortable and well appointed, well designed and maintained. George was a gracious and accommodating host, giving us a full tour, offering all required amenities, and was available at an instants notice when we managed to lock ourselves out the first day. The village is quaint, not far from Heraklion, and has an excellent park with serious Minoan ruins. The 3 huge brass pots you will see in the Heraklion archeological museum came from this site.
Loved this place. Great location close to heraklion but also rural. The old village style of the hotel felt authentic even though it's not, the outside restaurant seating area with views under the trees was stunning.Great food. Most of all I loved the fact that we were made to feel very welcome, Chris and Georges in the restaurant were particularly attentive, chatting to us and answering all our questions. Oh and not forgetting the cats, dog, goats and parrot.
Staff lovely. Food lovely. Views amazing. There is an outside bar area. With lots of tables for outdoor dining. The village experience is very interesting. The staff are very helpful especially George, bar tender, Christina, bar tender and George reception. My husband fell
Arolithos Traditional Village Hotel was our favourite accommodation during our travels in Greece! It's a fantastic way to get an authentic Greek experience on Crete. The staff were incredible and the Taverna has the best food!!
