Kamilari, a quiet village in southern Crete Kamilari is located in the south of Crete, very close to Tymbaki, Mires and the coastal villages of Kalamaki and Matala. Kamilari is 4 km from the archaeological site of Phaistos and is an ideal location for those wishing to explore the beautiful Messara Valley with its picturesque villages, rich history and the beautiful bays and beaches of southern Crete. Kamilari is built on three hills. It is a quiet place with panoramic views of the olive groves of the plain of Messara, the peaks of Psiloritis and the Mediterranean Sea. The village is very close to the beaches of the region. You will experience the impressive, traditional character of the small houses, the picturesque alleys and their unique views. It has all the characteristics of a typical Cretan village with a small main square, the church and the traditional, colourful cafes. Visit the organic market in Kamilari at the Kamilari - Kalamaki junction every Sunday from 8am to 2pm, with organic and local products from the nearby villages. Small art and craft jewellery are also on sale here. The local weekend market in Mires, which takes place every Saturday, is well worth a visit. Farmers from the Messara plain offer all kinds of fruit and vegetables and more. In recent years, a number of artists from the mainland and abroad have settled in Kamilari and art exhibitions are organised here from time to time. The name of the village, myths and history "Kamilaris" means camel driver and is a name that dates back to the Byzantine period. Some estimates date Kamilaris and the castle guard to 1583, but the history here goes back much further. In 1959, a vaulted tomb dating back to the Bronze Age (2000 to 3000 years before our era) was discovered near the village. We also have our local myths. In the settlement of Metochi, just outside the village of Kamilari, lived Epimenides, one of the seven sages of ancient Greece. Legend has it that he spent 57 years in a deep sleep. Our village is well preserved. In the years when Crete was plagued by raids, Kamilari proved to be an ideal location - on a hill that was protected from damage.

Our name "Orelia" was, according to mythology, the fairy who could tell the time simply by observing the position of the sun. The Babis family, a former sea captain and his young daughter Voula will attend to all your needs. The family owns and runs a farm (peppers, vineyards) and it is possible to visit it during short excursions. The family is happy to give tips for excursions in the area and can always be contacted by telephone. Voula studied philosophy in Athens but her love for Crete brought her back to the beautiful island. Her father, a former captain, built the villas and the new luxury flats with the utmost respect for the island's architecture. In addition to their involvement in agriculture, the family has a special focus on what Crete is famous for: "Cretan hospitality".
