Welcome to a traditional Cretan village, 3km from the sea. Happy New Year

DAISY AND THE VILLAGE OF FODELE.

Daisy is in a small development (Mandarin Grove) of 8 properties with a shared pool. It is located close to the heart of an authentic Cretan village. The local people have made a decision for the village to retain its original character. There are:

NO cash machines;

NO British newspapers.

The tavernas DO NOT take Travellers Cheques and few tourists stay in the village.

Daisy is situated in a lovely location...’Orange valley' enjoying unspoilt MOUNTAIN VIEWS which can be seen both from the bedroom balconies and the roof terrace.

Some guests like to visit local resorts such as FODELE BEACH and AGIA PELAGIA before returning to the village for their evening meal.

The village itself has a special character. Very little has changed over many decades. The locals are proud of their association with EL GRECO and the fact that the village can sustain itself through local crafts, farming, farm produce and the visitors who come to see this special village. The local tavernas provide a variety of cuisine and some provide a take-away service.

The CHURCHES in the village are beautiful and remain the focus of village life. Christenings and weddings are attended by the whole village. You can witness the feast in the village square accompanied by local musicians and traditional Greek dancing.

DURING YOUR STAY - CARE OF DAISY...PLEASE NOTE...

Daisy is furnished to a high standard...a Cretan feel with a touch of John Lewis! We would appreciate it if our guests would LOOK AFTER Daisy as if it was their own home and ensure that children are supervised for their own safety and well being. We appreciate that damage can occur but do not want the type of damage that is caused by children who are out of control or adults who have little respect for a holiday property. If this note of caution is acceptable to you, we have no doubt that your stay will be an enjoyable one.

Providing there are no new guests arriving on your day of departure, there will be no pressure for you to check out before you are due to leave for your flight home. If new guests are arriving that day, we will make every effort to ensure that you can use the facilities on site.

MANDARIN GROVE.

Daisy is situated within the GATED community of Mandarin Grove. It is separated from the village by a river; hence away from traffic so children can play safely.


TRIP ADVISOR 2017 CERTIFICATE OF EXCELLENCE.

We are very proud that Daisy has been awarded the 2017 Certificate of Excellence from TripAdvisor. This is a testimony to the care shown by our guests and the diligence of our site managers. Thank you.


SAFETY AND SECURITY.

The safety and security of our guests is paramount. As such, and we DO NOT allow unauthorised guests to visit Mandarin Grove or use the facilities. Owners and guests ONLY, please. Thank you.


UPON ARRIVAL.

Prior to departure we will issue you with 2 KEY CODES...

1. to access the key for the front GATE (located just inside the gate within easy reach);
2. to access the house keys in a key safe outside DAISY.


THINGS TO DO.

You will find much to occupy you in the village...

Multiple TAVERNAS each with their own specialities;
Gentle exercise on the various NATURE TRAILS;
Visit the local CHURCHES churches which are very beautiful;
Visit the MUSEUM that commemorates El Greco and Fodele, his birthplace.

Unlike the resorts, Fodele remains open throughout the year. For many visitors, it is a reminder of the 1950's.


PROXIMITY TO THE SEA.
.
Fodele will appeal to those who wish to be close to sea but would prefer to stay in a proper Cretan village. Fodele Beach is only 2 miles away from the village and it is lovely bay with a sandy beach.. Buy a drink at the taverna and your deck chair is provided FREE!


YOUR JOURNEY TO CRETE.

Direct flights to Crete are available from APRIL - OCTOBER. HERAKLION airport is approximately a 30 minute car ride from Fodele.

BOOKING A TAXI.

Should you wish to pre book a taxi at the airport, we can assist you. Please ask.

NB. Please tell your driver to take you to Fodele VILLAGE (not Fodele Beach).

CAR HIRE

You will probably find the cheapest deals on comparison websites like Travel Supermarket.

Alternatively, you can book direct with companies like Athens cars.

Our advice is to get “full to full” petrol and to be aware of the pressure with some firms to upgrade your policy. If you need the peace of mind of extra cover, it is cheaper to book it in advance


DIRECTIONS TO FODELE VILLAGE BY CAR.

Fodele village is approximately 30km from Heraklion airport. The CAR HIRE depot is ACROSS THE ROAD from the airport building.

Detailed DIRECTIONS as follows:

1 Leave the airport parking area, towards the traffic lights and bus stop. Stay in the RIGHT HAND lane;

2. Turn RIGHT at the lights (stay in the RIGHT HAND lane);

3. Look for a sign to RETHYMNON/ CHANIA. The slip road is about 200 metres further on;

4. Now on the HIGHWAY. Drive for approximately 25km;

On this road you will encounter the following...

The Highway will change from dual to SINGLE carriageway, you will pass a power station on your RIGHT.

The road becomes winding and uphill. Continue on this road.
.
Pass a BP petrol station; you are now in the Agia Pelagia area;

The highway now goes DOWNHILL; you will pass another petrol station on the right. Fodele BEACH is to your right;

Continue for a further 300 metres, where there is a large junction signposted FODELE.

5. TURN RIGHT here.

6. Follow this winding road for about 3km until you pass through the village and reach the VILLAGE SQUARE (a large TREE, El Greco TAVERNA and SOUVENIR STREET will be on your LEFT). Park anywhere in the village square.


TO WALK TO DAISY:

1. Retrace your steps back down the narrow high street for about 150 METRES. You will reach a FOOT BRIDGE on the left (DOMENICO’S TAVERNA and THE 4 SEASONS SHOP will be on the right).

2. Walk across the footbridge and immediately turn left;

3. Walk along the path adjoining the river for 150metres and you will see a high wall on your right, sign posted Mandarin Grove. You have ARRIVED.

You will be given a code for the box to open the GATE. Go inside and pass the pool. Daisy is the FOURTH PROPERTY ON THE RIGHT.

There is a key safe by Daisy’s front door. Again you will be given the code to open it. There will be 2 keys inside : one to the outside gate and one to Daisy. Please RETURN THEM to the key safe on your DEPARTURE.

Relaxing days in the village
We really enjoyed our days in Daisy and in Fodele. Daisy is a real lovely place! We liked the look to the church from the backyard door, and we even enjoyed the pope's singing on Sunday mornings. The house is well equipped with everything needed, even a dishwasher and a washing machine. Fodele Beach is close enough to go there every day and to enjoy beach life and the lunch in plaitis taverna. It was a nice circle sitting there at Smoothy George's with Sandra, Joe, Helen, and Ken. George is an amazing person and he taught our son, how to perfectly make a greek coffee. Our special thanks to Ann and Peter, who always stayed in close touch and helped us to enjoy our stay. We hope to return one day! Manfred and Suzanne

A beautiful place to stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this apartment situated in the beautiful village of Fodele. Our apartment was a very comfy home from home experience and provided everything that you could need. The Village has half a dozen Taverna's which offer amazing home cooked traditional food, the Locals are friendly, helpful and extremely accommodating to holiday makers . We would like to return to Crete one day and will recommend our experience to family and friends.

Very friendly people, clean property and a very strange island
The owners of the property are very friendly and helpful. We could always ask them and they had good tips for us. It is very family friendly and our kids had a good time at the pool and the nearby playground. The property is clean and well equipped. We just recognize that we won't become fans of Crete. A lot of plastic everywhere and some strange culture habits like shooting whis machine guns to celebrate weddings on the weekend.
