Crete Accommodation. Small hotels, local, rural and environmental – where are these places? Here are some tips on how choose a lovely place to stay on the island.
Small. In a small guest house is more likely to meet the owners and residents. Decide what it means little to you. Is it just ten rooms? Twenty to thirty years? As the number of rooms in any hotel that question. Sometimes this is not obvious in the brochure or website. A simple question will reveal this information. Our choices are 40 rooms or less.
Local. Take a quick look at who owns and runs the place. Note that in Greece, the name generally shows when a person is. Cretan family names end in – AKIS. As Papadakis and Sfakianakis. If the owner name ends in – AKIS are probably a local! In general, if the family is involved in the management everyday from the hotel and tavern, it is contained in the brochure or website. If not, an inquiry is needed.
Rural. In Crete, tourism package with its erosive effect on local culture focuses on the costs. Stay away from the beach for a while is a sure way to find a more authentic Crete. Is small towns and mountains that the true character of the island you can discover. We have chosen 12 beautiful rural lodging houses in this way.
Organic. The traditional methods of agriculture in Crete are organic, so it is quite common to find farms, guest houses and inns that have kept these practices without the modern fight "back to earth." Villagers and farmers of Crete are from the earth. When they visit their orchards and olive groves organic methods are simple every day.
In our search for accommodation Crete have found some fascinating places. A showcase organic farm is "Agreco ', located in the hills of Rethymnon. Daskalantonakis Nikos Grecotel chain opened the farm in 2002 to honor his homeland of Crete and agricultural knowledge traditional. Today, agricultural supplies, work all the food for their own pub and luxury resort Creta Palace, and the consumer demand growing organic products for trafficking, as wild and marinated artichokes stuffed zucchini flowers. Visitors are welcome in the exploitation that is given the title of Best 'Organic Restaurant 2009 "by Vanity Fair.
In the remote mountains of Chania in Western Crete is the eco-village Milia. This village was abandoned and in ruins, due to its remoteness and isolation, until Giorgos and friends came along and revived as a sustainable village project. With the funding from several sources, including a program of the European Union, this town is now home to a community of like-minded souls and live a, work, sustainable community. Visitors are welcome and 16 rooms of accommodation are available in town, and of course, organic food.
