Achlada Hotels and Accommodation
The quiet village of Achlada sits at an altitude of 190m, on the top of a hill about 20kms from Crete’s capital city of Heraklion. It overlooks the tourist resort of Agia Pelagia and affords breathtaking views towards the Cretan Sea and the mountains. The tiny village has an old stone fountain, a twin church, dedicated to both Aghios Ioannis (St John the Baptist) and Aghios Tryfonas and some beautifully restored houses. At a distance of only 4-5kms from Agia Pelagia, Achlada is the perfect place to enjoy the tranquility of nature, whilst still being within easy reach of the nearby beaches and tourist facilities. EasyToBook.com offers excellent discount hotel accommodation in this little oasis where time seems to stand still.
Agia Pelagia, although it has only around 550 permanent residents, attracts a good number of tourists during the summer season. Its beaches are sandy and set in small, well-protected coves, and hotels in the area offer easy access to the variety of water sports available, including scuba diving. Within the village itself, you will find the small church of Agia Pelagia, which is built on a rock very close to the sea. There is also an abundance of hotels, restaurants and bars, as well as car rental companies and taxi services. A visit to Heraklion is not to be missed during your stay, and there are regular local bus services to the capital each day. The Heraklion Archaeological Museum and the world famous Minoan Palace of Knossos are only two of the many attractions that the city and its environs have to offer
