The space
Nassibe is a historic estate located in the village of Ai Giannis in Crete. Guests can expect to experience a unique blend of traditional and modern amenities while staying in this cultural gem.
The property was once owned by the sister of Mustafa Chatzi-hasanoglou, a local Turkish governor who converted to Christianity in 1884. The estate was used to support the governorship and featured stables, a well, a wood oven, and storage rooms for food and drink. In 1990, the main building was recognized as a building of cultural heritage by the Ministry of Culture of Greece. It has been officially designated as a cultural heritage site, highlighting its significance and importance to the country's history and architecture. As a result, the house has been preserved and maintained to retain its authentic character and charm.
The estate has a 200-year history of grape cultivation, and its own vineyard produces a delicious and traditional wine named after the estate, "Nassibe".
Nassibe is a true earthly hideaway that offers the perfect balance of relaxation and adventure. A day at Nassibe is the perfect blend of relaxation, adventure, and rejuvenation.
The day begins with a refreshing wake up call from the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape. Guests can start their day by taking a leisurely walk to the vineyard, where they can enjoy a delicious breakfast prepared with locally sourced produce; a delicious spread of local cuisine prepared on-site, including freshly baked bread, eggs, marmalades, cheeses, vegetables, meats, and honey.

Guests can take a dip in the pool, sample local wines from the vineyard, and take part in various farming activities.
As the day progresses, guests can relax and unwind with yoga or a leisurely stroll around the property.
