Finika House & Garden - Traditional charm with modern comfort. Vori, South Crete

Experience a quiet retreat in our beautifully renovated 1894 house. Merging classic charm with modern comfort. Close to amazing beaches, important archaeological sites and Psiloritis mountain range.
The house, was completely renovated in 2021. Its main structure and the original wooden ceilings and stonework have been carefully preserved, thus leaving the special character of the original home. The house is on one ground floor, 76 sqm, and has access through the garden to the main entrance or through the bedroom patio.
The main area is spacious and includes living and dining areas, and a fully equipped kitchen under a lofty 4-meter high ceiling. A cozy bedroom, complete with private bathroom and patio, provides a peaceful retreat. The house has everything you need to feel like at home. Outside, a generous garden filled with citrus and fruit trees offers a tranquil escape. You are welcome to enjoy everything from the garden including herbs like mint, oregano, rosemary.

The house is situated in a quiet neighbourhood, at the edge of Vori, a lively Cretan village in the heart of the Messara Valley. The house overlooks the beautiful fields and mountains around, while being just a minute's walk away from the vibrant village center, with traditional cafes, a taverna, an excellent bakery, pharmacy, grocery store, a surprisingly rich and interesting Ethnographic Museum, and more.

Vori is very close to the renowned archaeological sites of Phaistos, Agia Triada, and Gortyn, as well as to amazing beaches of Matala, Kommos, Agia Galini, Agio Farago and many more. The village is located at the base of the Psiloritis range, offering a great starting point for hiking, trekking, biking, and mountaineering.

Unforgettable stay in Vori!

We had the most wonderful stay in this beautifully renovated house nestled in a peaceful valley in the Mesara Plain. Surrounded by orange groves and with the majestic Psiloritis mountains in the distance, it truly felt like a hidden gem.The house is very comfortable and clean, has everything you need, with tasteful design touches like stone arches that echo the heritage of old Greek architecture. It’s located right at the edge of a small, authentic village, just a couple of minutes’ walk from the center where we found cozy cafés and some amazing local tavernas.The beach is only a short drive away, but we loved how serene and quiet the area was—ideal for a couple's getaway. The nearby old church adds a peaceful, timeless feel to the whole setting. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay—relaxing, beautiful, and full of authentic Cretan atmosphere.Highly recommended for anyone looking for a romantic escape or a quiet retreat in southern Crete!
