Welcome to Amplades Vacation Suites!!
Almplades stands for sisters in the Cretan dialect. Why did we name our properties Amplades? We are three sisters that came together to save and preserve an old historic property and at the same time offer a traditional, authentic Cretan experience to friends and guests from all over the world.

Why they chose this property
A place where you can make unforgettable memories right here, in our exquisite place of birth, the Island of Crete in Greece. We have created 3 unique, autonomous suites, hidden away like a gem, in the small mountainous village of Galipe, just 20 minutes from the airport of Heraklion, far enough from the loud touristy areas so you can taste and see the real Cretan life that many never get to see, but still close enough to main attractions. Our Greek culture, especially here in Crete is all about the traditions of Hospitality or Philoxenia as we say! We can't wait for you to experience the Cretan Philoxenia while you stay at one of our charming suites.
