Description from manager
Description
Our beautiful home lies right in the heart of Mavrikiano, a small settlement, built on the top of a hill, overlooking the Mirabello bay, the seaside village of Elounda and the famous island Spinalonga. Even though this area lies, practically at the edge of Elounda, one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, Mavrikiano village, manages to keep its character of a typical Cretan village and thus you, our visitor, can wonderfully combine, the simplicity of village life with the cosmopolitan lifestyle of Elounda. The beach lies just 8min walk away.
''Argiro'' has been set up to a holiday home, but it's rich of traditional elements and authentic items, similar to which are rarely found today.
Theodosopulos, a well-known Greek architect bought it in 1965 and fully restored it. Being a lover of tradition and heritage, Theodosopoulos made a thorough study to produce a Historical picture, seeking information from the relatives of the original owners and neighbors and reconstructed the place. He also added the kitchen at the entrance of the House, a wooden loft area above the kitchen and the small bathroom.
''Argiro'' sleeps 4 people but it can accommodate up to 6 people.
Going past the front gate you enter a small, private courtyard full of flowers. On the right (within the courtyard) is the entrance to the small bathroom. On entering, the house there is a small kitchen and the dining area. Then, up a couple of steps, lies the sitting area with a fireplace.
Further on, lies the first bedroom with two single beds and a second fireplace. Going up the stairs you will find yourself on the upper floor with a sofa on the hallway and the master bedroom with a double bed. The patio door to the right leads you to the covered veranda with a dining table to sit six adults, the summer kitchen and BBQ.
The views from here onto the whole bay, Elounda port, Spinalonga island and the nearby beach and hills are absolutely stunning.
All rooms are laid out just as they were originally built for a small family, meaning that you must walk trough one space in order to reach the next. Therefore, there are no in-between doors, except for the bathroom, of course.
All furniture is old and handcrafted by local craftsmen. All artistic and cultural details, paintings, sculptures, lights, decorative and everyday-life little items, used by the families and people, who lived here in the past, have been restored and are kept in place.
