「Stunning property in a newly restored old house. Beautiful, spacious and well-appointed room. The common areas were comfortable and there was a lovely balcony. The breakfast which was beautifully served on the balcony was beyond compare. Local, fresh, and delicious Cretan treats. Archanes is close to Heraklion and the palace of Knossos and had plenty of dining options. We were in Greece for three weeks and our night at Carpe Diem was probably our best stay. Can’t recommend highly enough. 」
「Wir waren 5 Tage in diesem wundervollen Hotel in Archanes.
Die Zimmer waren sehr sorgfältig eingerichtet und stets sehr sauber. Wir hatten sogar eine eigene Terrasse mit Aussicht auf den nahegelegenen Berg.
Das Hotel verfügt ausserdem über zwei Pools. Einer bedeckt und der andere unbedeckt fürs perfekte Geniessen der Sonne.
Das Hotel liegt direkt am Dorf Archanes, wo sich das ganze Leben abspielt. Läden, gute Restaurant und ein schöner Marktplatz.

「This is the first five star review I've ever left for a hotel in Crete. The Lady who liked after us during the stay was amazingly kind, helpful and generous. The property is gorgeous and the apartments are incredibly well furnished & arranged. The pictures do not do them justice. The beach is literally across the road and the town square is a 4 minute walk. Many good restaurants just steps away. This should be on the top of everyone's list of places to stay when visiting Kalamaki.」
「Clean and nice room. Convenient location if you want to be near the airport. You can definitely hear the airplanes overhead when they are using the runway that points toward this hotel, but the night we were at the hotel the airplane noise stopped at a reasonable time, did not start up again until morning, and did not impact our sleep. If I were planning on spending a lot of time in the room during the day or evening, the noise might have gotten annoying. 」
「Von Anfang bis Ende absolut traumhaft. Wir haben ganz spontan 1 Woche in diesem Hotel gebucht und es war einfach perfekt. Ideal zum runterkommen, Transfer vom/zum Flughafen hat super funktioniert. Das Hotel hat fussläufig einen Strand (ohne Liegen, Service o.Ä), Man kommt aber innerhalb von paar Gehminuten (oder man wählt den Hoteltransfer) an den gemachten Strandabschnitt. JA man hört die Flugzeuge für uns war es aber kein Problem, bisschen Ushuaia Flair. Wir hatten Halbpension und das Essen...
「The hotel is just a short walk from the port and it’s about 7 min away from Lion Square. The sound proof is amazing considering it’s on a main street and very close to the airport. Dimitri made some very good recommendations on restaurants - all of our meals have been amazing in Heraklion. The only recommendation I made is to replenish bottled water every day, rather than just giving 2 small bottles for the whole say. But all in all, good value for money and great hospitality! 」
「A very unique, stylish property, brand new in 2025. Everything inside is fine. Dishwasher and washing machine in the suite. On the other hand, no on-site parking and the front desk (available 12 hours per day) is located in the 3 Pines property across the street. 」
「Very nice and clean hotel! Reception was closed but I got very detailed instructions before arrival on how to retreive my key and find the room. I was also gifted sweets and wine. I loved that the fridge was bigger than usual hotel fridges/minibar. I also got the breakfast, which was served at a nearby café, and I got my breakfast served at the table. Very cozy place and everything was tasty! Highly recommend this hotel!」
