This is a great location if you want to get away from the more touristy side of Crete. Anopolis has a very authentic feel, most people seem to come here for hiking, although we found a great beach to drive to not far away. We warmly recommend the local taverna and there's a bakery and shop in the village, all within walking distance. Antonia's place is a great spot in a quiet corner of Crete, and a perfect base if you're into hiking. Did we mention the wonderful views?
