Traditional Stone-House

Built in 1897, this Traditional Stone House is a testament to Crete’s rich architectural heritage, inspired by the island’s historic village homes. With its iconic stone arch—a signature element of Cretan houses designed for structural strength and aesthetic grace—it once sheltered generations under its sturdy roof, providing warmth and security in an era when homes were built to endure. Once the heart of Giagia Afrodite’s family life, its walls are watered with the joyful memories of her tender care, as she prepared meals with love, watched over her grandchildren, and listened to their laughter echo through the yard. Now lovingly restored, it preserves its timeless character while offering modern comforts, inviting you to step into the past and experience the essence of true Cretan living.
