Hi! My name is Anni Markodimitraki and I was born in Heraklion, Crete. I am a music/piano teacher. My family and I have been living in Athens since 2003. From 2022 I host guests at my house in Archanes! In my accommodation, every guest is unique and that's why I try to offer a special stay experience. Cleanliness is my primary concern. I try to have frequent communication with my guests to make sure they are satisfied with their stay. This spacious maisonette of 140 sq.m. will make you feel like home. A welcome box awaits you to start your most unforgettable vacation with coffee, sugar, oil, cookies and the traditional drink of Crete, raki! The fireplace and the private jacuzzi bathtub will offer you moments of relaxation. There is firewood provided for free. Each room has a view of the nature, the olive groves and the mountain, offering real peace and moments of pure relaxation, which I personally enjoy every time I am there. If you are a space lover, the property has a telescope to explore the stars in the clear night sky. I like reading, music, live concerts, theater as well as hiking in the nature, one reason why I love the village of Archanes with its countless gorges and paths.
