Accommodation
Description
Experience the charm of Crete in this cozy countryside home located in the traditional village of Avdou. Surrounded by lush green landscapes and nestled in the serene Lagada Valley, this house is perfect for families or small groups, accommodating up to 6 guests.
The property features two comfortable bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, and a modern bathroom. Relax in the large garden, enjoy al fresco meals with the barbecue and wood-fired oven, and take advantage of the private parking on-site. A complimentary bottle of homemade wine adds a personal touch to your stay. (Note: A brand-new sofa has replaced the one shown in older photos.)
Avdou is just 30 minutes by car from Heraklion International Airport, along a scenic drive through Crete’s countryside. The house is ideally located only 20 minutes from the stunning beaches of Hersonissos, Malia, and Stalida—where golden sands meet vibrant beach bars, authentic tavernas, and lively nightlife.
Nature lovers can explore nearby Mount Louloudaki and its hidden gems, including the cave church of Agia Fotini, the Faneromeni cave, and the geological wonder of Trypiti. The nearby Aposelemis Dam—Crete’s largest man-made lake—offers tranquil views and historical intrigue, with the submerged village of Sfendyli visible during low water levels.
Cultural sites abound, with nearby attractions like the ancient city of Lyttos, the Palace of Malia, and Diktaean Cave. Museums such as the Lychnostatis Folklore Museum and the Aquaworld Aquarium are also within easy reach, offering fun and learning for all ages.
Whether you're exploring historic churches, hiking scenic trails, or just unwinding in the garden, this peaceful retreat offers an authentic slice of Cretan life.
The village of Avdou is renowned for its proximity to the stunning Roza Gorge, a popular destination for nature lovers and hikers. The gorge is easily accessible and draws visitors from all over the world who come to enjoy its natural beauty and tranquil paths.
Within the village, you’ll find two well-stocked supermarkets and two traditional tavernas offering authentic Cretan cuisine. The wider area is also rich in local restaurants and charming cafés, making it a perfect spot for guests looking to experience genuine Cretan hospitality and gastronomy.
