마닐리 빌라

We spent one night in a large "suite" with two beds and a jacuzzi...but the jacuzzi was not working. We were offered a bottle of wine as a gesture of goodwill. The staff was very kind and did their best to accomodate us. The rooms are quite dark and a little claustrophobic (they have a cave feeling, there is no view from the windows, just walls); they are very well furnished with a modern/rustic décor. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom was very good, with a great shower. The location is good if one arrives in Heraklion and it is very close (15 minutes by car) to the Knossos palace. Archanes is a quaint pleasant village. Breakfast was good. A good stay but I would not class this as 5 stars hotel.

Our recent stay at Manili Boutique Suites & Villas was a true delight! The location is simply stunning, nestled in a peaceful setting that offers tranquility like no other. It’s the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle, yet within minutes, you’ll find yourself amidst a variety of wonderful local restaurants boasting delectable cuisine. The service and friendliness of the staff were top-notch. Their attentiveness and warm hospitality truly made the stay memorable. The attention to cleanliness throughout the property was commendable, and the breakfast spread was not only delicious but also offered a great start to the day. While the pool was a beautiful feature, it leaned towards the cooler side for our liking. However, this is a subjective preference and by no means a reflection on the overall experience. Additionally, the rooms, while charming, did have a bit of sound transfer. Nonetheless, this minor factor did not significantly impact our stay. All in all, I wholeheartedly recommend Manili Boutique Suites & Villas. With its idyllic location, proximity to fantastic local eateries, excellent service, cleanliness, and delightful breakfast, it’s a wonderful choice for a serene getaway. While the pool temperature and room acoustics may vary for each guest, the overall experience is one that leaves a positive impression.
