For Crete, in particular, the whole concept of the group looks like a walk through the island and gives us the opportunity to make a colourful historic tour to the treasures of this place. Our unique journey starts with the Chania Old Town. We are staying at Alcanea Boutique Hotel, housed in a historical Venetian building at the Old Port, with eight rooms and an exceptional Cafe & Wine Bar... A few steps away from the Old Port, we find Fileas Art Hotel, the most recent suggestion of Aria Hotels in the island, a boutique hotel with six modern spacious rooms and a special design. Moreover, in the Old Town but with an amazing view of the Old Port, there is Astraia & Astraki Residences, two autonomous renovated 2-bedroom-resi- dences. Moving on outside Chania, we will escape to a 2-century-old oil press at Apokoronas, at the picturesque Gavalochori village, where Villa Athermigo is located, with three cottages with a total capacity of 10m persons (rented independently or jointly), promising the ultimate relaxation within the nature. A few meters away we find Critamo Cottage, a traditional house built in 1724, able to host five persons. Next stop is the amazing experience of Scalani Hills, at the farmland of Boutaris Winery just outside Scalani village, in Heraklion. With a mesmerizing vineyard in the background, we stay at a renovated glebe with 3 luxurious rooms that can host up to 8 people within the Winery Zone of Designated Origin Archanes and just 4 km from Knossos! We will get the last taste of Crete with the completion of this travel expe- rience... in the beautiful town of Siteia and Sfakia village, where we will meet the traditional Cretan neighbourhood of 1800...It is the fully renovated Cressa Ghitonia Village, a complex of 15 residen- cies, with a Spa Center and pool for revitalising moments and a restaurant with authentic local recipes.
