Miscellaneous
Overview
Kapsaliana Village Hotel’s history-steeped settlement, set in the island’s largest olive grove, has an 18th-century olive press and its own museum. The original press and pitharia (clay storage vessels) can still be admired and there’s a homely restaurant and a flower-flanked outdoor pool. Rooms are soothingly simple: stone interiors and arches.
Highlights:
The hotel’s historic village and natural beauty
Total privacy – each bedroom in its own building
Sandy beaches just a 10-minute drive away
Smith extra
A bottle of homemade rakomelo and traditional spoon sweets. Stays of five nights or more will also get one free dinner.
In the know
Also need to know:
Give the owners advance warning, and pets can come too for free. Smoking is allowed in all communal areas apart from the restaurant.The rather important-sounding Ministry of Planning and Public Works has pronounced the hotel a site of ‘significant cultural importance’, and no wonder: the lounge is built around the original olive press and there’s even a little museum, stocked with artifacts.
Packing tips:
Cool cotton, bikinis and beach shorts, a paperback copy of Homer’s Odyssey.
Dress code:
Relaxed rustic: loose linen, soft shirts and heel-free shoes for the uneven floors.

Dining information
Restaurant:
The restaurant at Kapsaliana is a real gem, serving stand-out local cuisine. Styled around a typical Cretan kitchen, with wooden tables and chairs, white arched walls and bright tapestries, the chef and olive oil expert whips traditional delicacies using organic, locally sourced ingredients. The simply delicious (literally) dishes include lamb with artichokes, chicken with lemon and olives, meat pie with wild herbs and delicate sugared pastries. A relaxed breakfast is served here daily.
Top Table:
Sit out on the terrace and feel the sun on your skin.
Last Orders:
Breakfast from 8.30am–11am; lunch between 1pm–4.30pm; dine between 7pm and 10pm.
Room Service:
Drinks can be ordered from 9am and 7pm. There are no in-room snacks but you can stock up on nibbles from the pool bar.
Hotel Bar:
During the restaurant’s opening hours, drinks are served in the lounge area. The zingy home-made lemonade is worth being teetotal for. There's an honesty bar of sorts by the pool, stocked with drinks and ice-creams. You can also use the pool bar's telephone to have food brought to you. The latest edition to the hotel is the Lemonies Bar, where you can enjoy sundowners such as the Mediterannean Manhattan (local raki, sweet vermouth, angostura, grapefruit juice, orange juice and soda water).
