We Love Crete - Where to Stay

Route Guides

Route Guides - here at We Love Crete we have had many questions from independent  travellers about what to do in a short time in the west or east of the island - these e-books have evolved out of the questions from travellers who love Crete.

Katia, Anastasi and Apostoli have created these mini-guides with trip routes on the back roads of Crete.

Either of the short itineraries can be expanded; each guide has suggestions of alternative routes and extra activities.

Explore Crete

Our beaches are beautiful, contrasting and pristine. The stunning Elafonisi Beach (above), a delightful mix of crystal clear bays, white and pink fine sand, and tiny islets where you can still discover secret places to relax.

Explore our rugged mountains and unpopulated coastline, find havens away from the hustle bustle, like Mochlos Island (above) in the unspoilt east.

Wide open places, blue skies, fresh air and good fresh, organic food. The people of Kriti have never lost their connection to the land and healthy farming. Visit a village and stay in a traditional home, experience the vineyards, the vegetable gardens and eat the freshly prepared, home-made food.

The team at We Love Crete share our culture, history and music.

Enjoy our video - warning - this is full of inspiration to visit Crete. You will be packing your bags and out the door before you know it!

Welcome to Our Island

Welcome to Greece

Explore mainland Greece, Athens and the Greek Islands, each has a different vibe. We have plenty of tips from our own travels...we become intoxicated by the bright whites of the little hidden lane ways of Mykonos...seeking enigmatic treasures like this green door.

 ...and little square with the village water well...which we discovered whilst wandering through the narrow back lanes of Mykonos town, just minutes from the windmills, the stylish boutiques and jewellery studios, just on our way to our next cafe bar.
