About the host
Hosted by Manolis Kalergis
My name is Manolis. I am 36 years old. I was born in nearby town of Rethymno. I have grown up & lived in sunny Crete. I have graduated on Business Administration at the University of Luton, UK. I love sports and I love traveling.
As a local, I can help you get the most out of your visit to this great island that I live in, know and love. Whenever you need me I will be only one phone call away.
I am excited to welcome you, together with my mother (architect) and father (physician).
Let me be your host and I will provide you with information, maps, directions. I will suggest places, restaurants and attractions, all the must-see places! I will help you take with you a little or a lot of the magic of this dream island.

Why they chose this property
Because this property is really adorable. Not only the quiet village atmosphere but also the kind friendly people living there. Climate is dry and healthy for asthma and more. Old houses coming of the past, here and there.
Most of the houses have a unique beauty with patios, arched doors, roofs and terraces. You can feel concentrated on them the Venetian art, the oriental opulence as well as Cretan tradition. Atsipolpoulo is a very interesting village. The houses have a unique beauty with patios, arched doors, roofs and terraces. You can feel on them concentrated Venetian art, oriental opulence and Cretan tradition.
The strategic importance of the village gave rise to many battles during the Ottoman occupation and to its eventual destruction by the Turks in 1866; many villagers earned a reputation in this period as brave warriors. The village was also the birthplace of several important men of letters, such as G. Chortatsis, author of the Cretan Renaissance dramas The Sacrifice of Abraham and Erophili.
To this day Atsipopoulo remains one of the most beautiful villages on Crete, not least because the inhabitants were quick to realise the value of its architectural features.
These have been respected, preserved and made such good use of that the village retains the appearance and grandeur of Venetian times.
Visitors are sure to be enchanted by the neighbourhoods, with their courtyards and doorways bearing dates from the 17th and 18th centuries, as well as by the village's churches and other buildings.
Accommodation, dining and entertainment facilities are all available. In short, visitors attracted to Atsipopoulo are guaranteed to leave the area as the finest ambassadors Cretan tourism could wish for.
