Keratókambos Vacation Rentals

"No words can truly describe this hotel except amazing! The room was beautiful and peaceful. The grounds were stunning. Kuria Mina was an exceptional hostess and very accommodating to her guests' needs. Not to mention a complimentary shot of Raki, a traditional local drink. We will definitely recommend this hidden gem to all our fellow travelers visiting the area!"

"The villa is beautiful. It is very well equipped with everything we needed - we really couldn't fault it! It's very spacious, with seating areas outside at the front, back and on the balcony, so there's always a sunny spot (or shady spot if you prefer!). The beds are very comfortable, and all the bedrooms have air conditioning so it's very pleasant even in the height of summer. The pool is a great size and provided so much fun for us all. Stelios, the host, is so friendly and helpful!The village of Sgourokefali is lovely and quiet, and the locals are very friendly. It has a very small minimart with basic groceries, and a bakery selling fresh bread and delicious fresh pastries, so you don't really need to leave the village! Episkopi is a 30 mins walk away where there are more shops including 2 larger supermarkets, a taverna and a lovely (and very reasonably priced) restaurant which we ate at quite a few times.We decided not to hire a car, but on the days we did leave the village, we used a taxi, which cost between 40-60 EUR each way to places like Knossos, Heraklion and Water City. It was easy to get a taxi at Heraklion airport when we arrived, even though there were 5 of us. The same taxi driver gave us his number and we messaged him on Whatsapp when we needed a taxi during our stay, and I'm sure others would do the same.We would definitely stay here again, and would recommend it to anyone!"

"Was great"

"Second visit to this lovely, friendly, family run hotel. Perfect central location, close to the beach. Amazing breakfast. We will definitely be returning."

"If you are looking for serenity Dyktinna Villas is the place. This charming and quaint little village is a gem tucked up in the mountain side. Manoli and Maria are amazing and very welcoming hosts. For an authentic Cretan meal take a very short stroll through the cobble stone path to a restaurant called η Βριση (e Vrisi ). The owner Myrto treats you like family and will make you a meal that rivals that of a Michelin star chef. A truly magical place to experience. "

"It was OK"

"Very comfortable cottage with everything we needed in a beautiful setting. The switchbacks getting in and out were a bit daunting but we got used to them. Friendly hosts who gave good information on the area. "
