Location

Pendamodi is an ideal location for excursions to every corner of the island, even though few of the residents usually decide to leave the hospitality and warmth of the village.

The villa is located 15km from the famous Ammoudara Beach (15min drive). Ammoudara Beach is 6km long and is famous among locals and foreigners for its thin golden sand. It has parts with a lot of people, while others with few; also it has restaurants, cafes, water sports, beach bars. Another choice nearby is Lygaria, a more quiet and family beach, located at a gulf, suitable for windy days. Amnissos, Karteros and Paliokastro beaches are also within short drive distances.

Pendamodi is one of the oldest villages of Crete and it is not without importance, that Stefanos Sahlikis wrote his poems there beginning this way in the middle of the 14th century, the Renaissance of Cretan and Greek literature. Today there are a few inhabitants who are well known for their hospitality and sociability.

There are two traditional 'kafenia' one of which also serves traditional 'mezes', a mix of Cretan cafe and tavern, highly recommended. Additionally, a selection of brilliant local taverns can be found within a few kilometers in the surrounding villages and modern snack café is always an alternative.

The village layout, cobbled roads and stone-built houses maintain the design, architecture and structure of the old days. Conveniently located just 15 kilometers from the island¢s capital Heraklion, yet a million miles away from its hustle and bustle, some excellent walking country is almost on your doorstep, with the European Hiking Path passing close to the nearby village of Ano Assites, and encompassing many Byzantine Chapels, ravines, river valleys and holly forests, it is truly a place of outstanding natural beauty.
