Gavalohori is a traditional Cretan village situated in the Apokorona region about 3km inland from the coastal village of Almirida. Gavalohori is an old historical village with approximately 500 residents. It is a typical Cretan village with a small square where a coffee shop, a bakery, a mini mart, two tavernas and other convenient stores can be found. Several narrow streets branch off its centre and one could wander through several interesting sections of this officially protected village. Stone built houses with lovely backyards full of colourful flowers can be found. A lot of interesting buildings can be seen, such as the 18th century two room, arched olive oil press, the temples of Panagia and Agios Sergios, the old school, and the historical folk art museum. Within a short distance (5km) from tranquil Gavalohori one can drive to Almirida, a picturesque coastal village. You may dine there in one of several seaside tavernas or relax sipping your drink by a bar during sunset.

Review Submitted: June 12, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Visited crete in late may for two weeks and stayed at villa Athina with my husband. The villa nor the service did not disappoint in any way.Immaculate, very spacious and with excellent layout.Our 7th visit to Crete in six years and our best, the local village and the residents made us fall back in love with Crete the way it did 20 years ago when we lived and met there.would highly recommend eating out locally, beautiful tavernas in village,and also driving around to explore off the beaten track.Beautiful beach in Almerida with fabulous fish tavernas.Best moments by far watching the sunset with only the sounds of the goat bells for company and the snow capped{just} mountains in the distance. thank you Christos and everyone in Gavalochori for two weeks we do not want to forget.Hope to return later this year.

Review Submitted: April 20, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
Stunning, spacious villa with gorgeous views near seaside. Immaculate and in perfect order. We were cared for with true hospitality. Nearby taverna with excellent food. Close to beach with fine sand. We previously lived in Greece for 2 years and have travelled extensively through mainland and islands - and our stay here is a top favorite. Perfect for family - we brought our 4 children, ages ranging from infant to 15 years. Highly recommended.
