Douliana

A peaceful village with views of the White Mountains and surrounded by vineyards, carob trees and olive groves. With small narrow streets and most of the buildings dating back to the 1800s. Here you can still witness, the true rural way of Cretan life. Ideal for families, hikers and nature lovers with many countryside footpaths to explore.  Douliana has been awarded with protected Village status due to its historic stone buildings. It’s just a 10 min drive from the sandy beaches of Kalyves and Almirida and has two tavernas and a café whilst the nearest supermarket and bakery can be found in Gavalochori another pretty village worth visiting.
