Eine wunderbare Unterkunft: Abseits der Touristenströme, freundlich, sehr sauber , sehr ruhig, der Ort angenehm, eine alte Ölmühle- und eine moderne - in nächster Nähe. Auch Chania, Rythimnon, Vamos und schöne Strände sind mit dem Auto sehr leicht über gute Straßen zu erreichen . Für uns, drei Erwachsene mit vier Kindern waren es sehr schöne, zu kurze Tage. Ich kann Manolis Haus- Wohnung Wärmsteins empfehlen. Dass es Internet hier überhaupt gibt ist erstaunlich, dass es nicht die Stärke der Großstadt hat versteht man leicht.

Very early in the season to be visiting Crete, so as the only guest I was ungraded and ended up with 2 bathrooms!. Loved my time here. Just what I wanted - not too far off the beaten track and quiet. Check out the olive oil museum with lovely guide Stelios.

Super place with great character

We were very happy at Patriko. Manoli met us and told us a little of the history of the place and showed us around. The place had a historical feeling and lots of space. Each sleeping area had its own bathroom for added comfort and privacy. Good wifi. Parking on a steep slope; better to go in frontward rather than backwards.

Patriko

From the moment we arrived the owners manolis and Eva were extremely friendly and helpful. The property is a very tastefully renovated old cretan house in a lovely quiet village. That said the nearest beach is a ten minute drive and we walked to it one day. Highly recommended. Lovely house, lovely owners and lovely village

Posto incantevole

Sembra di essere fuori dal mondo: ambiente rilassante, dove regnano la pace e l'armonia. Il signor Manolis e sua moglie sono degli ospiti gentili e cordiali, disponibili a soddisfare ogni richiesta. Esperienza da consigliare e da ripetere assolutamente.

Friendly staff, nice traditional place, spacious room. Wifi good when working. Not everybody is happy about worms, maggots, bugs, spiders and centipedes inside and outside. Hotel name is not visible anywhere, so you need to find right place.

Struttura bellissima e appartamentino stupendo, tutto in pietra e ottimamente restaurato, proprietari gentilissimi ed amabili, come la colonia di gattini nel guardino. Se avessimo avuto più tempo saremmo rimasti di più. Da segnare e ritornare. Auguro loro tutto il meglio possibile. Consigliatissimo

Typisches Haus in einem griechischen Dorf

Auch bei meinem zweiten Urlaub (3 Wochen) im Patriko Residence habe ich mich dort sehr wohl gefühlt. Die beiden Häuser haben wenige Apartments und sind liebevoll im kretischen Still von Manolis, dem Eigentümer, renoviert worden. Eine persönliche Betreuung von Manolis und seiner Frau Eva sind selbstverständlich. Wer eine Unterkunft in einem richtigen, kretischen Dorf sucht, ist hier bestens aufgehoben. Ich wurde zu zwei Familienfeiern eingeladen und auch mit selbstgebackenem Gebäck verwöhnt. Sehr gut auch für Alleinreisende, die keine Partymeile brauchen. Man braucht einen Mietwagen. In Vafes gibt es drei kleine Tavernen und ein kleines Geschäft. In Vrisses, 10 min mit dem Auto, bekommt man alles: zwei kleine Supermärkte, zwei leckere Bäckereien, Tankstelle und einen netten Platz an einem Fluss mit Restaurants. Der nächste (und ich denke auch der beste und längste Sandstrand der Umgebung) ist in Georgiopolis, 20 min mit dem Auto. Dort gibt es viele Restaurants, eine Apotheke und Geschäfte (auch mit Touribedarf). Ausflüge (Boot, Samariaschlucht etc. kann man von hier auch buchen. Weitere Sehenswürdigkeiten: über die Berge (45 min), Chania (Hafen, Museen, Galerien, Alstadt, Shopping, 40 min), Aptera (30 min, röm. Ruinen), Kournas (Binnensee, 20 min), Vamos (alte Häuser), Imbrosschlucht (30 min) Vorsichtig im Dunklen: es gibt viele Tiere, die unvermittelt auftauchen (Katzen, Hunde, Schafe, Ziegen, Massen an Igel, Dachs, Marder etc.)

Traditionelles, kleines Haus

Wer nicht unbedingt neben dem Strand wohnen muss und eher mal typisch griechisch, ist hier sehr gut aufgehoben. Persönliche Betreuung (ich bekam zweimal hausgemachten Kuchen und Plätzchen) und Lage mitten im Dorf Vafes zeichnen dieses kleine Haus mit ca. 3 Appartments aus. Das Haus wurde schön restauriert (tolle Holzdecke) und man blickt gegenüber auf die Berge. Die Soundkulisse zumindest im November: Schafe mit Glocken und Lämmern, Vogelgezwitscher und hin und wieder Hundegebell. In die Berge kann man vom Haus aus Wandern. Ein Mietwagen ist ein Muss. In 10 min ist man in Vrysses. Dort kann man einkaufen. Außerdem gibt es hervorragende Plätzchen in zwei Konditoreien zu kaufen. Nach Georgiopolis sind es nochmal 10 min mit einem tollen, langen Sandstrand. Im Winter gibt es einen kleinen Minimarkt und ein paar Restaurants, im Sommer sind viele, kleine Läden geöffnet. Von Vafes ist man in 20 min in den Bergen in Askifou, in 30 min bis Aptera (römische Ruinen), 40 Min bis Chania (toll zum shoppen, netter Hafen), 40 min bis zum Flughafen. Das fahren im Dunkeln auf griechischen Dorfstraßen ist gewöhnungsbedürftig: Katzen, Hunde und Ziegen, kleine Lämmer und Kurven tauchen unvermittelt auf. Also eher vorsichtig!

Wunderbarer Aufenthalt im malerischen Dorf

Als junges Ehepaar waren wir auf der Rundreise auf Kreta und haben Vafes aufgrund der strategisch günstigen Lage für die Erkundung von West- und Zentralkreta sowie für die Weiterfahrt in den Süden gewählt. Von hier aus lassen sich die Bucht von Ballos, Chania, Rethymno, Springs von Argiroupoli, Kournas See, Samaria Schlucht mit dem Auto bequem erreiche, um nur einige zu nennen. Grund für die Wahl war auch der Wunsch mal abseits von den touristischen Locations zu sein und das Leben eines Bergdorfes zu erleben. Der freundliche Gastgeber Manolis hat uns bei der Ankunft in der gegenüberliegenden Taverna empfangen und zum Haus geführt. Wir waren von der Größe und der Ausstattung des Hauses mit vielen Details aus der Vergangenheit positiv überrascht. Zu den netten Add-On's zählte ein Fläschchen Willkommensraki (der beste, den wir auf Kreta probiert haben), hauseigene Olivenöi und der Wein. Manolis hat uns auch mit den Produkten aus dem eigenen Garten, wie frisch gepflückte Aprikosen, versorgt. Morgens und abends haben wir in der gegenüberliegenden Taverna gegessen und waren von der Essensqualität und der Gastfreundschaft der netten Stavrula begeistert. Alles in einem - ein wunderbar gelungener Aufenthalt. Wir kommen gerne wieder.
