It is increasingly difficult to find the "real" Crete. Villa Malles is a small group of village houses which have been tastefully and professionally restored to form five wonderful studios and apartments in the heart of a true Cretan village. There is a taverna attached to the apartments which uses only produce from the village itself, guaranteeing the very highest standard of organic food, local wine and raki. Situated 15 minutes (by car) inland from the small coastal resort of Myrtos, the apartments offer an insight into village life and guests are encouraged to join in with the grape and olive harvests in season. Although popular with visitors from Greece, you may well find that you are the only "foreigners" in the village. In an area rich with churches, a small gorge, abandoned villages, a kafeneion which serves water direct from a mountain spring waterfall, fabulous views to the south coast and the Lassithi mountains to the rear, this is a perfect place for walkers. In the spring, flower enthusiasts can see both mountain and lowland varieties just by walking down to the coast or up the Sarakina Gorge, or Sarantapichou as the locals call it. According to the myth Sarantapichos (a giant, son of Zeus) whilst passing through the mountain bent down to drink some water from the river. His long beard split the mountain in two and that is how the gorge was created.
