***A few words about Heraklion region***

Heraklion is Crete’s main entrance hub and is situated at the center of the island (north shore). The Minoan Palace of Knossos lies in the city’s outskirts while the archaeological museum boasts a large collection of Minoan artifacts from all over Crete. Although Heraklion is a bustling city, the calm and picturesque countryside, only a few minutes away by car will take you back in time. In the region's villages you will enjoy authentic Cretan cuisine made with quality local olive oil and other local produce. A winery tour will allow you to experience the island’s wine-making tradition, going back thousands of years. During the day you can enjoy swimming and sunbathing in numerous sandy beaches lying in the north and south of the region. Heraklion is therefore a must stop during a multi-day island tour. It is also a convenient base for a short trip to Crete since one can easily combine visits to historical sites with great swimming opportunities and culinary delights.

***What to do in Heraklion***

For history and archaeology enthusiasts the starting point of the tour is Knossos, the largest Bronze Age archaeological site on Crete, also called Europe's oldest city. Heraklion's archeological museum displays exhibits dating back to the Neolithic era in 3,500 BC while the medieval fortress of Koules ("Castello a Mare"), situated in Heraklion’s port is a reminder of the town's medieval past. Furthermore, the Historical Museum exhibits items from the 4th century AD up to and including the Second World War. The Natural History museum exhibits the diverse flora and fauna of the Eastern Mediterranean region. The Cretan Aquarium will allow you to take a glimpse of the marine life inhabiting the waters surrounding the island.

During the evening you can visit one of the numerous small restaurants ("Rakadika") situated in the town’s old center (near the Morozini fountain), which serve delicious variety plates along with Cretan spirit "Raki". And if you are up to it you can continue your night out until the early morning hours in one of the local bars and clubs.

Getting Around:
How to reach Heraklion :

Direct charter and scheduled flights to Heraklion: A number of companies operate direct flights to Heraklion from various major European cities, especially from April until October.

Air shuttle service from Athens: Aegean Airlines (Olympic) operate frequent daily flights between Athens and Heraklion.

Amazing property

I have been renting vacation properties for over 20 years. This was by far the best in all categories. Kate was very caring, great communication and provided us with home cook breakfast a couple of times. The view outside is so beautiful and natural, I feel in a Zen mode every morning when I wake up. Thank you so much for everything.

Wonderful Home to Stay

The property was spacious, well-stocked and was the perfect home base for our exploration of Crete. We were able to easily access the airport, the south coast, and the west coast (via our rental car). The outdoor patio area that comes with the unit was beautiful. We would love to come back when the weather is better (unseasonably cool weekend in April for us) and spend much more time in the garden area. Our hosts provided homemade baked goods, spinach pies, honey, and olive oil. All of which was delicious! We were also able to join our hosts for a cooking class where we made our own spinach pies and similar desserts. Our hosts were kind and generous in their hospitality. Without a doubt, we would stay here again.

Gastgeber exzellent, Wohnung super ausgestattet, herrliche Aussicht

Die Lage am Berg erlaubt eine herrliche Aussicht, die wir täglich genossen. In der Wohnung fehlt nicht, sie ist super ausgestattet. Super freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeber, welche auch kretische Leckereien zur Verkostung bereitgestellt haben. Der Garten zur Wohnung wurde für Frühstück und Abendbrot von uns intensiv genutzt. Ein Auto sollte aber vorhanden sein, da im Ort nicht allzu viele Möglichkeiten sind. Strassen im Ort auch recht bergig

Sehr zufrieden

Mit unserer Ferienwohnung waren wir sehr zufrieden. Kati und Costis demonstrierten uns, was Gastfreundschaft bedeutet. Sie erfüllten uns alle unsere Wünsche, waren extrem aufmerksam und besorgt um uns. Man hatte den Eindruck, dass man bei ihnen als Gast stets willkommen war. Natürlich stellten sie ihren Gästen das Nötigste zur Verfügung, wenn sie spät ankamen. Außergewöhnlich war auch der Blick von der Terrasse und dem kleinen, liebevoll gepflegten Garten auf die grandiose Landschaft vor uns. In der Nähe von Heraklion hätten wir dies nicht erwartet. Insbesondere am Abend durften wir uns über das unglaubliche Farbenspiel der Natur freuen. Angelika und Detlev

Top appartment & top hosts: strongly recommended

Kate and Kostis have been the perfect hosts for our little family. Very warm and caring, yet not intrusive. They made us feel at home from the very beginning of our stay. Last but not least: Kates cooking skills are awesome! The appartment is very modern and well equipped with everything you need to cook, wash, etc.. The view from both rooms is breathtaking. For those who travel off-season and are unlucky with the weather (like us): the appartment has central heating. The immediate surrounding of the appartment gives you a lot of opportunity for walking and hiking. Taken together: a perfekt package!

Amazing vacation in Crete!

Our vacation at Kate & Kostis' place was just incredible. The apartment is very tastefully furnished and provides everything you need. The patio outside is perfect for dining with a lovely view over the coast and the city of Iraklion. Kate and Kostis were outstanding hosts, very helpful and friendly and we were very happy to eat all of Kate's scrumptious baked goods. We recommend this vacation home to everyone looking for a pieceful homebase, from where it is easy to explore the island of Crete.

Perfect base for exploring central Crete

We visited Crete as a family of three with a young toddler and were amazed by the extreme hospitality of our hosts. We got local greek pastry, self-made olive oil and honey as well as cheese just because we should have a nice authentic experience. Not only was the apartment perfectly located near Iraklion to visit the city itself but also the surrounding, just 10 minutes to Knossos! Thank you for a very pleasant stay, we would come back any time.

Un petit paradis...

Cet appartement contient tout ce que vous pouvez désirer et même plus. L'équipement est très complet et en excellent état. Les aménagements extérieurs sont extrèmement confortables. La vue sur les collines et la ville, avec la mer au loin, est époustouflante. Quant à l'accueil, il est absolument exceptionnel: Kate et Costis sont des hôtes d'une gentillesse et d'une générosité rares, tout en sachant rester discrets. Kate nous a offert plusieurs plats crétois, tout juste sortis du four, des pâtisseries et tout le nécessaire pour le premier dîner et le petit déjeûner. Et toujours avec le sourire. L'emplacement est idéal pour visiter Knossos et pour profiter des plages à l'est (Potamos) et à l'ouest (Ligaria, Mades). En résumé, Muses est probablement le meilleur endroit pour visiter le centre et l'est de la Crète.

This is a first class property, perhaps even better in reality than illustrated in the publicity. The hosts are marvellous, with just the right degree of availability and advice if needed, but discreet if not. Katie's generous and excellent hospitality, with the provision of baking, is beyond expectation. All facilities are excellent and the views from the house are subliminal. This property cannot be praised highly enough.

A gorgeous peaceful retreat with everything you could ask for!

We knew that staying here would be magical, but it really exceeded any expectations! The view is magnificent, the apartment cozy and well-equipped for preparing beautiful food harvested from Kati and Kostis's orchard below. They are warm and wonderful hosts who are sharing their home and all of their labors of love with you - from the freshly baked spanikopita that awaits you upon arrival and the kind touches that grace this apartment, from the spa robes, treadmill and free weights, to the handy laundry area that helped us recharge our wardrobe after so much travel. We would love to return to this village of Vasilies in a heartbeat.

Everything was as we wanted it, the apartment was clean, well equipped and the views were fantastic, with our own private garden! Kate and Kostis were perfect hosts, available if we needed anything, but respecting our privacy. Kate made us fantastic snacks and we enjoyed a beautiful meal with them. The garden produce, tomatoes, peaches, figs etc were a real bonus, we loved being able to pick what we required. The location enabled us to visit Knossos, Agios Nikolaos, Rethymnon and several beaches, a perfect holiday! We would thoroughly recommend this apartment.
