Accommodation Anthoula

Welcome to Greek family life
Accommodation Kokkini Hani, Anthoula: At a 2 minute walk from Zorbas Island you will find the Anthoula apartments. This accommodation breathes tradition and authenticity, as if you just walked into a Cretan living room. The owners live on site all summer and happily help you with anything you may need.
The Greek hospitality is world famous, at Anthoula there is no escaping it. Stories of extra plates set at the dinner table or bags with fresh fruit hanging at your door, are numerous.

The apartments
Anthoula is at a 2 minute walk from the beach and a 5 minute walk from the village centre. The apartments are decorated traditionally and are equipped with all the necessary basics like air conditioning, refrigerator and cooking area. The guests that choose Anthoula, choose to participate in Cretan life. Families are more then welcome, Anthoula even offers apartments with 3 bedrooms. There is no swimming pool but we gladly invite you to join the guests at Zorbas Island where you can use all of their facilities.

We organize excursions for our guests ourselves, where we like to go to places that are not described in the tourist guides. Here you will see the real Crete! We organize walks through olive fields and villages where you will encounter few people along the way. But we also climb and clamber through various gorges. So if you like a little more challenge, that’s a must. In some gorges there is water all year round, so wet feet guaranteed. Along the way we will have lunch at beautiful places that you would not have visited otherwise. Please see our page about excursions.

Cretan bananas are small, highly aromatic, and intensely sweet "mini" or "baby" bananas (8–10 cm) primarily cultivated in southern Crete, particularly around Arvi. Grown in greenhouses and open air, they are available year-round—peaking Aug-Nov—and are often sold on the stalk. They are known for being untreated with pesticides and, although rare, some are exported. So visit the Heraklion Market and try some of these!
During the Culinair Unknown Crete excursion of Zorbas Island, we visit tradional villages, a monastery, drive through the olive fields and have a high quality lunch in a greek taverna with all different mezes.
