Top Karanos Hotel Reviews

Porto Veneziano Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great Breakfast and Dinner Selection. Beautiful spot and staff helped me with booking a tour. They were all very kind!"

Monastery Estate Venetian Harbor

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing stay. Staff was super helpful. Breakfasts were delightful, especially when we discovered that we could order Greek yoghurt, drizzled with honey and with diced fruit. Very refreshing and a perfect beginning to the day. Location is perfect. Parking is a real challenge but we got lucky almost every day finding street parking relatively close by. In short, absolutely wonderful experience."

Halepa Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"What a wonderful place to stay when in Chania. We were here only two nights so that we could catch a bus to hike the Samaria Gorge, but the hotel is amazing. Very clean and conveniently located in Chania with an easy to access private parking lot (not often available in Chania). The staff were some of the nicest people we’ve encountered while traveling (and that’s saying a lot because Crete is full of friendly people). After a long and grueling hike of the gorge, we got back to our room around 8:30PM and luckily Halepa Hotel has room service (amazing club sandwich with potato chips and ice cream that was much need and all without having to try to leave the hotel again). Also, great buffet-style breakfast with plenty to choose from and very filling. My only complaint is that we didn’t stay here longer but if ever we are in Crete again, we will be staying here for our entire visit."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Karanos?

The best area to stay in Karanos is within the village itself, particularly around the central square and the roads leading to it.

Karanos is a small, traditional Cretan village located in the foothills of the White Mountains. The village center is compact, featuring a main square where you'll find the historic plane tree and several tavernas. The surrounding streets are narrow and winding, lined with stone houses and offer views of the lush valley and distant mountains.

For couples seeking a quiet and authentic experience, staying in Karanos is ideal. It provides a relaxed setting away from the more bustling coastal areas, allowing for peaceful evenings and leisurely exploration of the local culture and cuisine.

When is the best time to go to Karanos?

The best time to go to Karanos, Crete, Greece, is during the shoulder seasons of April to early June and September to October. These periods offer pleasant weather, fewer crowds, and more favorable prices compared to the peak summer months.

For travelers who enjoy comfortable temperatures for exploring and outdoor activities, April and May are ideal. The landscape is lush from winter rains, wildflowers are in bloom, and the sea is warming up for swimming. It's a great time for couples to enjoy hiking the Samaria Gorge or exploring ancient ruins without the intense summer heat.

September and October are great for those who prefer warm sea temperatures for swimming and a more relaxed pace. The summer crowds have thinned, but the weather remains sunny and warm.
