Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Megala Chorafia?
The best area to stay in Megala Chorafia is the village centre, particularly around the main square.

This area offers a concentrated experience of village life. You'll find traditional tavernas serving local cuisine and a couple of small shops for daily essentials. The main square is a focal point for the community, and you'll often see residents enjoying their evenings there. The roads are narrow and winding, typical of a Cretan village, and the architecture is traditional stone.

Couples looking for a peaceful escape will find the village centre ideal. It's a place to relax, enjoy authentic Greek food, and experience a slower pace of life. The evenings are quiet, great for enjoying a drink on a balcony with views of the surrounding countryside.
