The little village of Agyroupolis where Arcus is located is very quiet and charming. It got a great local feel of Greek countryside and many friendly locals, well used to tourists dropping by, to see the historical places they offer.
Arcus I located a couple of minutes from the main square, easy to get to by car or feet. It’s a bunch of old houses, surrounded by a very green and exotic inner garden with a little pool. Our room was located at the 1st floor level, with a beautiful view to the pool from the terrace.
You feel like going back in time, the houses is clearly old but extremely well kept and there is really cared about the details everywhere. The room itself was large, and offered all you possible could imagine bubble bath, a large bed, big TV, good WiFi, laptop, cappuccino machine, bathrobes and even a small cakes and local alcohol on arrival.
Don’t miss out on the wonderful breakfast, served every morning personally at your terrace with a various number of local Greek specialties - can’t imagine any better way of starting the day. It’s an additional 7 euro, but worth every bit of it.
On top of all this, you get the friendliest host you could wish and his family, that will help you with anything you need solved, before or during your stay.
We had a absolute wonderful week at Arcus - should we return to Crete would we without doubt return to this magnificent little Paradise.
