<The village of Samonas in the Apokoronas on Crete
Samonas is a small quiet traditional village in the Apokoronas area (except for when the dogs start barking, ahah!), close to Kalives and the village of Armeni, at a 25 kilometer distance from Chania. The village is mainly agricultural and it feels littered with small churches. There are beautiful views over the bay of Chania. You will pass Samonas if you want to visit the 11th century Byzantine Church of Agios Nikolaos just outside Chiliomoudou.
Samonas can be reached if you take the exit to Armeni from the highway in between Georgioupolis and Chania or from Kalives. You follow the route Armeni - Provarma - Samonas.
Luxury accommodation in the Apokoronas with very good reviews. The traditional settlement of Samonas is a complete neighbourhood located in the village of Samonas, in the district of Apokoronas, at an altitude of 400 m and at a distance of 25 km from Chania. The village still preserves its picturesque character since it is really very small and has very few inhabitants. Their main occupation is stock-raising and agriculture. The settlement is built on a hill slope and it has such an orientation that it offers an impressive view from all dwellings. Looking over from the settlement's location, we get the impression that we could touch the White Mountains, or dive into the vast Cretan sea. During night hours, thousands of stars will magnetize your eyes. Musical sounds, vivid colours, captivating scents, pure flavours and the close touch with nature will awaken all your senses and their remembrance will remain with you. Here you will experience unique moments of relaxation and complete tranquillity in an authentically traditional area, without missing any of the comforts of the modern way of living, which we have quietly incorporated in all our dwellings.
