Stay just 400 metres from the centre of Agios Nikolaos on the gorgeous Bay of Mirabello, when you choose this well-placed apartment. There’s a small harbour to explore or watch the world go by at one of the cafés and restaurants lining the shores of the Voulismeni Lake. For beach lovers, there are the nearby beaches of Ammos and Almiros. The apartment itself is modern, but there are stairs to climb (something to bear in mind if you have limited mobility). Also, this home has a designated outdoor seating area on a shared terrace, but it’s not really private, so you’ll need to be willing to chat with the neighbours.

Spread across three floors, this stone-built villa is ideal for family getaways to Greece. Though it might not feel the most modern in terms of decor, this home is comfortable, spacious, and well-equipped. But it's the outdoor space that drew our eye here in the first place. With ample seating around the private pool and a shaded table for alfresco meals, this is a sun-lovers dream. The beaches along Mirabello Bay, including a sandy Almyros Beach, can be found only minutes away.

Garden

This apartment is situated just 400 metres from the centre of Agios Nikolaos on the beautiful Bay of Mirabello. Explore the small harbour or the circular Voulismeni Lake with its cafes and restaurants. Alternatively, spend the day on one of the nearby beaches of Ammos and Almiros. Back at this modern apartment, whilst there is a patio area, it’s part of a larger shared terrace with your neighbours, so this place won’t suit you if you’re looking for more outside space.

The Greek Sun

This home has a great location – it’s just 400 metres from the centre of Agios Nikolaos. Have a stroll around the Bay of Mirabello, or explore the harbour and the cafés and restaurants that line the shore of Voulismeni Lake. The nearby beaches of Ammos and Almiros are a must for beach lovers too. Back at this modern apartment – there are stairs to climb and although there’s an outdoor seating area, it’s not private, as it shares the terrace with neighbouring apartments.

Located in Agios Nikolaos’ centre and sitting just 200 metres from the beach, this modern apartment offers breathtaking sea views from its private balcony, along with a minimalist interior that will suit those looking for a fuss-free stay. The open-plan layout of the living area ensures those stunning vistas can be enjoyed inside and out, while the paid extras the host can organise – from private chefs to boat cruises and beauty treatments – means there’s no shortage of fun and R&R to be had.

You'll find this sleek villa a stone's throw from Agios Nikolaos, one of Crete's most popular spots. The outside space here is obviously a highlight. Between the multiple sea-facing balconies, sunny terrace and private heated pool, there are plenty of places to unwind with a glass of wine while admiring the endless blue scenery. While the views are hard to beat, the contemporary interior stacks up quite well. Picture windows flood each room with light, relaxing rainfall showers await in the bathrooms and the modern kitchen has everything you need to whip up dinner. Better yet, speak to your host about hiring a private chef to do all the cooking for you.

With a view of Agios Nikolaos and the Sea of Crete, this suite-style villa is all about coastal relaxation. Beach Almyros is practically on your doorstep, with more sandy shores a short drive away. When you're not exploring, you'll make a beeline for the panoramic balcony, although the indoor hot tub is another fantastic spot to unwind with a glass of wine. Only a small kitchenette is available, so don't expect to cook big meals here. That said, breakfast is included and you'll enjoy a complimentary welcome drink upon arrival – now that's what we call five-star service. 

Teak by the Sea

Set just a short flip-flop from the sandy shores of Ammoudi Beach in Zakynthos –⁠ this newly-built apartment is tailor-made for easy holidays by the sea. The private terrace with views of nearby Agios Nikolaos Bay is the showstopper here. It’s a prime spot for morning breakfasts, and the bakery at the end of the road can help with supplies. The second bedroom handily doubles as a study space. However, if you’re using it as a bedroom, two guests will share a double sofa bed which may be better suited to children sharing or one adult.

We were sold when we first saw this home's panoramic sea views – and we're pretty sure you will be, too. Perched on the hillside, just outside the sought-after resort town of Agios Nikolaos, this villa is all about rest and relaxation. Admiring the stunning vistas across Mirabello bay, the islet of Agioi Pandes and the Sitia mountains is likely to be at the top of your agenda – whether you're enjoying the infinity pool, sun terrace or alfresco dining area. Another perk? The Jacuzzi bath, which is the perfect end to a busy day. Located just 400 metres from the coast, you'll be within walking distance of Ammoudara and its picturesque sandy beach settings.

The Garden of Ammoudara

Overlooking the garden and situated footsteps from Almyros Beach, this comfortable suite provides rest and relaxation for a couple or solo traveller. The swimming pool is private and breakfast is provided each morning. What’s more, your host can arrange a series of luxurious extras from boat cruises to wellness treatments. While there’s a kitchenette here, it’s better suited to light bites than large meals. Fortunately, the restaurants of Agios Nikolaos are a short drive away.

Amethyst Shores

Ideally located in central ​​Agios Nikolaos, this petite apartment is ideal for those looking to explore the area’s bustling harbour and beaches. A modern minimalist interior, a sofa bed for flexible sleeping arrangements and a private balcony with sea views are features we appreciate. And though the open-plan en-suite won’t be to everyone’s taste, the window-side tub is hard to pass up. With your host able to arrange a plethora of extra services (for a fee), including private chefs, boat excursions and beauty treatments, you’re in for a relaxing, carefree stay.

Herb Garden

At first glance, this villa perched on top of a Cretan cliff is an architectural marvel, but the most impressive aspects lie beyond its appearance. The architects behind the project used ecologically sensitive practices during construction, from natural paints and installing energy-efficient fittings to choosing sustainably sourced stone.

This should give you a sense of quiet satisfaction while you wind back and relax here, which is remarkably easy to do. The infinity pool has glorious views of Mirabello Bay, as well as cascading waterfalls and a Jacuzzi. After a dip, there are numerous terraces on which to take a breather, including a pergola with a barbecue underneath if you're feeling a little peckish.

In this corner of western Crete, you're not only spoiled for beaches, but history abounds in this area — the nearby island of Spinalonga can be reached by boat from Elounda and has an impressive fortress from its time under Venetian occupation.



Signs of Life

With gorgeous views of Agios Nikolaos and the glistening sea, this studio-style apartment is perfectly suited for a relaxing coastal stay. Akti Koundourou Beach is just a few steps away, with the lively harbour a short walk from your door. When you're not out exploring the local tavernas, cafes and landmarks, spend unhurried mornings sipping your espresso on the private balcony with panoramic views. Another highlight is the freestanding bathtub, while we appreciate the high-end touch that's been given to the entire apartment. Only a small kitchenette is available, so don't expect to cook big meals here – that said, you've got plenty of dining options practically on your doorstep.

Perched on a peninsula with direct access to the Aegean Sea, this villa promises rest and relaxation in scenic surroundings. We think the panoramic views speak for themselves. Spanning across the sea towards the Sitia Mountains and Agios Nikolaos (just 4 kilometres away), it's the perfect backdrop for outdoor living. Whether you're enjoying cocktails in the sunshine, dips in the infinity pool, or alfresco dinners as the sun goes down, you'll be able to make the most of the scenery. Factor in the cinema, games room, and contemporary living spaces inside, and it's no wonder it caught our eye.

Resort Access

Built from traditional stone and marble, this typically Cretian villa sits right on the sand at Almyros Beach. Pad barefoot from the terrace to the soft sand and swim in crystalline shallows. It’s just a few steps back to your villa if you forget the sunscreen. Or, simply admire the ocean from your elevated position on the rocks, where a sleek swimming pool overlooks the shore. There’s outdoor dining beneath the wooden pergola and stone pathways twist around fruit trees and verdant greenery. Stone steps lead directly to the beach.

Inside, the living room is like a solarium, with a wall of windows letting in that sea view and sunshine. Trinkets made from seashells and sea-glass are a reminder of your ocean-side locale. The old fireplace can be illuminated with candles for a romantic air, and crisp white walls are livened up with vibrant local artworks. Upstairs, bedrooms open up to the terrace, so you can tumble straight from bed to lounger.

Though you’re in a quiet, beach-side location, the vibrant coastal town of Agios Nikolaos is a five-minute drive away, where Venetian-style buildings line the old harbour and seafood tavernas spill out into the streets. 

Barefoot Beachside

Board Games

Pod Coffee Machine

This beachfront villa caught our eye for its spectacular sea views. And with huge bedrooms windows, they can be enjoyed from the moment you wake up. There isn’t a swimming pool here, but with the sea on your doorstep we don’t think you’ll miss it, and you’ll have your own private Jacuzzi on the terrace overlooking the water. Your host can help arrange a variety of treats, including a private chef and beauty treatments, and when you’re ready to explore, the seaside resort of Agios Nikolaos is just a few kilometres away.


The Rose of Grecia

For a convenient base in Agios Nikolaos, you can’t do much better than this apartment. It’s just 100 metres from Paralia Kitroplatia, and is also close to Ammos Beach. You’ll likely spend most of your time on the balcony, admiring the sea view and soaking up the sun. The apartment is spread over two floors, with one bedroom on the top floor, ideal for a couple seeking a bit more privacy. There’s plenty of space here for everyone to spread out, and the kitchen and dining area means you can easily cook at home. 

Tranquillity & Rhythm

We love the sea views from this contemporary house, and with terraces, balconies and picture windows, there are plenty of spots to enjoy them from. Built as two detached villas, connected by internal stairs, this is a great option for anyone travelling as part of a group – you’ll share the outdoor pool area but have your own private space indoors. To make your holiday feel extra special, your host can help arrange a private chef to cook for you. Or if you’re travelling with the children, a babysitter can be arranged so you can enjoy a child-free night out at nearby Agios Nikolaos.


The Ocean Bloom

With direct sea views and a private balcony, this compact apartment is ideal for those looking for a Cretan getaway in popular ​​Agios Nikolaos. A modern minimalist design lets the blue backdrop do the talking here, with a tempting freestanding tub in the bedroom offering a luxurious way to take in the vistas. While at capacity one guest will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area which will make the space a bit cramped, we reckon you’ll be spending your days exploring the city’s bustling harbour and beaches, or even taking advantage of the plethora of extra services on offer, including boat trips and beauty treatments. 


A Handful of Sky

Access to Gym / Spa

One of four similar villas within a serviced complex, this place is ideal for those who want to be able to walk into town, stroll to the beach in minutes, have access to all manner of hotel-style facilities and yet enjoy the comfort of a private swimming pool. It sits just outside the coastal town of Agios Nikolaos, within walking distance of the charming waterfront. The villa’s complex boasts a shared swimming pool, fitness centre and spa, cinema and sports facilities. But those who value privacy can spend days by the villa’s own swimming pool, taking in the view of the Aegean Sea. The upper terrace is the perfect spot for sundowners or evening meals and the interior has everything you need for self-catering.

The Starfish's Daydream

Located in Ammoudara, this privileged spot boasts incredible views and a range of comforts that will make you want to settle in and stay. Spread across two villas (connected by internal stairs), there are two heated swimming pools and plenty of outdoor seating areas to sit back and soak up the scenery. Your host can also arrange sweet extras like a private chef or beauty treatments – elevating your stay to the height of relaxation. And for adventures further afield, it’s just a short drive to Agios Nikolaos and the beautiful beaches of the Cretan coast. You’ll also find water sports just a five-minute stroll away. 

At The Sea's Edge

Sauna

If you want the privacy of a villa, but the convenience of a luxury hotel, then you've come to the right place, because this home has it all. Set above the Gulf of Mirabello on Crete, it's the ideal place to kick back and relax in perfect peace with your favourite people. 

Breakfast is included, so you can start your day right – sip your morning coffee as you look out at the panoramic sea views. When the temperature rises you can take a refreshing dip in the sparkling swimming pool, before drying off on a sun lounger with a good book. Fitness fans can raise their heart rate in the gym, while those who prefer a slower pace might prefer to sweat out their stresses in the sauna. Come evening, budding chefs can get to work in the sleek kitchen, but if you'd rather someone else do the cooking then your host can arrange a private chef to whip up your favourite dishes. 

When you fancy a day at the beach, take the free shuttle over to the local beach where you'll find sunbeds, parasols, and a menu of tasty food and drinks. If you're feeling adventurous then you can crest the waves with a yachting or sailing excursion, and golfers can take the forty-minute drive over to the 18-hole course. Then, at the end of a long day, you can relax with a wellness treatment in the resort spa – bliss. 

Cat-Eye Sunglasses

This villa is all about the view. It’s on a small hillside in Agios Nikolaos, looking out over Mirabello Bay. The terrace, with its private infinity pool, is a dreamy spot for gazing out at the blue sea. There’s also a pergola and a barbecue with an alfresco dining area. Inside, you’ll find luxuries like the Finnish sauna, which may come in handy after a workout – there’s exercise equipment here, along with a small basketball court. For days at the beach, you need only walk 200m to reach the Blue Flag-awarded Havania Beach. One guest will be on a sofa bed, which may not be suitable for everyone.

Luxury Bedding

Just imagine dangling your bare feet into the crystal clear water off your own stone-built jetty. It's just one of the incredible experiences on offer at this luxury home close to Elounda. Boasting four en-suite bedrooms and perfect for a family or a group of friends, it's a smartly modernised home with a stunning setting, right on the coast. 

Built in the 1970s and retaining a bohemian charm with antique tiles and colourful furnishings, it's a magical place with gardens going right down the gently lapping shore. You'll even have access to a semi-private little beach – ideal for morning swims. An oasis of calm, our favourite spot is the terrace, with its comfy seating and view across the water and the mountains. 

Fully staffed with a maid, chef and a team of gardeners, you need not lift a finger but keen cooks will enjoy getting to grips with the well-equipped kitchen and the barbecue, or just head into town for a meal at one of the many excellent restaurants. Just be sure to be back in time to see the sunset over the sea from your garden – it's really something special.

Incredible panoramic mountain views await at this secluded villa just 7 kilometres from the resort town of Agios Nikolaos. Surrounded by trees and built out of stone, it’s perfectly at one with the breathtaking nature framing it on all sides. The outdoors is truly magical with its infinity pool with a built-in Jacuzzi, loungers and open-air day bed, as well as an alfresco kitchen and ample seating to soak in the wide-sweeping vistas. Except for a mezzanine bedroom, the villa is otherwise laid out on a single level with carefully curated bedrooms incorporating stone and wood into their decor, and a pair of sleek bathrooms – one of which has an ever-so-tempting tub.

This home is all about those mood-enhancing views. You can soak it all in from the swimming pool (heated upon request), or whilst sipping drinks on the balcony. There’s also an outdoor sauna and plenty of chill-out spots to spread out and spend quality time together. Some of the furnishings are a little dated, but we think the sea views more than makeup for it. And for explorations further afield, it’s a short walk to the nearest beach (Havania is only 250 metres away), while the picturesque city of Agios Nikolaos is a short drive away. 

A Note from the Oracle

The sweeping coastal views from this newly-built villa may be heaven-sent, but it’s the lengthy pool and stylish sun terraces which are getting us hot under the collar. An excellent choice for two couples sharing, each bedroom has direct access to the wraparound panoramic balcony and an en-suite shower room to kickstart your day. Location-wise, the centre of Elounda and its wide sandy beach and seafront restaurants are just a two-kilometre stroll downhill –⁠ and you can always hop in a taxi on your way back home later. 

The Gods Give

Searching for postcard views over Crete's shoreline? Look no further than this tranquil villa, where poolside relaxation feels even better after a workout in the private gym. Professional chefs and beauticians are on call and ready to make this holiday a treat for everyone. With on-site parking awaiting, day trips to Agios Nikolaos are easy, but we love that Almyros Beach is only a ten-minute stroll away – there, you can swim in the Ionian Sea and sip cocktails on the sand.

The Green of It All

This apartment gets our stamp of approval for its sea views, luxurious interiors and bang-on location in Agios Nikolaos. Just a short walk from Ammoudi Beach, you'll also be within strolling distance from the town's bars, shops and dining delights. Set up as three independent suites – the apartment offers three double bedrooms, each with a living area, kitchen, en-suite bathroom and private balcony terrace overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. With the extra privacy of having three suites, this spot is the perfect option for couples or a group of friends travelling together. The serene balconies, free-standing bathtubs, espresso coffee machines and access to Netflix are the added home luxuries we like to see. 




Ramblin' Reflections

Overlooking Mirabello Bay, this unfussy suite is exactly what we want from a place on Crete’s east coast. The pool is all yours and a complimentary breakfast is provided each morning. If you’d like to make your stay that extra bit special, call upon your host to arrange for an at-home massage. While there’s no proper kitchen here, the fantastic restaurants of Agios Nikolaos are a short drive away. And when it comes to sea and sand, Almyros Beach is footsteps from your building.


The White Tangerine

Ping Pong Table

Playground

Hammock

Nestled on the side of a hill with a pretty view of the sparkling Aegean Sea, this villa is an excellent option for a large group looking for a week or so of pure escapism.

You'll feel a sense of peace as soon as you cross the stone bridge leading to the property and enter the gardens filled with olive trees and Mediterranean foliage. Head around to the rear of the address and you'll find a pair of infinity swimming pools with loungers and a hammock arranged invitingly around the sides. There's also a barbecue and plenty of terraces on which to enjoy food fresh off the grill.

It's not just the swimming pools that come in twos — there are two separate homes inside, each with a kitchen and lounge, which offers extra flexibility. Both have been treated to the same contemporary styling, with white walls, eye-catching lighting fixtures and an open fireplace for when after the sun's gone down. 

As you would hope with such proximity to the sea, there's a superb range of beaches nearby, starting from as close as five minutes' drive away. The resort town of Agios Nikolaos only takes eighteen minutes to reach in the car.



Pair of Aces

Smart TV

Overlooking Almyros Beach in eastern Crete, this villa is all about luxe details. Two heated pools, a private gym, manicured grounds and direct beach access are just some of the delights in store. The space is made up of two separate villas – each with its own living area and kitchen – making it perfect for multigenerational families or groups looking for a bit more privacy. Inside, the decor is coastal boho chic, with a freestanding en-suite tub and balcony access from the bedrooms among the many features that caught our eye. And a carefree stay wouldn’t be complete without daily breakfast served straight to your villa and daily housekeeping too. With your host also able to organise a plethora of extras (for a fee) – including chauffeurs, personal shoppers and in-villa dining – you’ll find yourself leaning into the holiday lifestyle in no time. 

The Platinum Flame

Rooftop Terrace

Up on a hilltop overlooking the sea, this stone villa has views as far as the eye can see. Three kilometres from the town of Elounda and facing east, at the end of the day you’ve got an unparalleled view of the sun setting over the water. Head into the charming harbour town of Agios Nikolaos, a ten-minute drive away, for an evening of shopping, tavernas or perhaps a day chartering a boat. 

Gardens bloom with olive trees and wildflowers all around the villa. Bag a poolside beanbag lounger to soak up the sun or relax in the shade of the veranda. A banquet-sized dining table provides the alfresco option on the terrace, alongside that fabulous view, so you can watch yachts cut across the ocean as you dine. Perhaps the best place to enjoy the view is from the sun-trap roof terrace, lined with sofas. Pathways through the wild countryside are shared with another villa and lead to secret playparks and hammocks in the trees.

Inside, it’s calm and white with boho touches like big wicker lamps and wildflowers in vases. The main living room is flooded with sunlight from floor-to-ceiling windows and a second living room is centred around an old-style fireplace with candles glowing. A Scandi-chic desk sits on a raised area should you need to work remotely and there’s a home gym and games rooms for fitness and leisure.  

The Sea At Golden Hour

Throws

Spend idyllic days in the freshwater, heated swimming pool overlooking the sea when you stay at this villa. We love the views of Mirabello Bay and the island of Spinalonga from the terrace and balcony – enjoy them with a glass of wine from the complimentary bottle.

Inside is elegantly decorated, but most of your attention will be on the wonderful vistas. One of our favourite spots is this villa’s attic – it’s a secluded spot, furnished with a desk and sitting area and it overlooks the azure waters of the private sandy beach. This place is located just two steps away from the development’s private beach club so you can be on the sand in five seconds and have access to all kinds of water sports and beach services.

If you want to explore further afield, we’d recommend the ancient city of Lato, which is thirty minutes in the car.

Spinalonga Vistas

Soak up the brilliantly blue views from this stellar holiday home. It sits up high, overlooking the incredible Elounda Bay – but the prime position is not the only elevated thing about this home. It's been created to ensure every guest can enjoy pure relaxation – there's a multi-level outdoor area with plenty of space for each guest to soak up the sunshine, including from the stunning freeform infinity pool, as well as the covered dining terrace where you can sip cocktails at sunset. Inside the home is stylish and modern, yet still retains a ton of traditional Cretan charm, with its whitewashed walls and built-in furniture.

Apollinia

A villa with stunning sea views just 300 metres from the beach? Sign us up. This home can be found in Elounda, and is perfect for large groups – you can even bring your pets, so absolutely nobody has to miss out. There are two separate guest rooms with independent access so you won’t all be under the same roof, but this might suit couples seeking a little more privacy. You can definitely enjoy your own space here – stroll three minutes from the villa and you’ll discover additional grounds with hammocks swaying between olive trees and quiet corners for meditation. What bliss. 

Sunshower Of Sunlight

With its private swimming pool, sociable outside spaces, and views of Mirabello Bay, this villa is an excellent choice for a family or group of friends. Inside, the place is equipped with everything you’ll need for a stress-free stay – the kitchen’s well-appointed, sleeping arrangements are flexible, and the en-suite bathrooms are complete with Jacuzzi bathtubs. If exploring is on the agenda, Havania Beach is around 500 metres from your doorstep, and the seaside town of Agios Nikolaos is only a short drive away. 

Chasing Sunlight

Ideal for couples or solo travellers seeking a luxuriously carefree stay, this suite-style home in an adults-only complex ticks a lot of boxes when it comes to a romantic coastal getaway. A private pool, sea views and a complimentary welcome drink are just some of the delights in store. And your host can help arrange a plethora of extras (for a fee) to make your stay all the more memorable, from private chefs to boat cruises and even special honeymoon packages. What’s more, Almyros Beach is just a short stroll away, and Agios Nikolaos is easily reachable too where you’ll find plenty in the way of dining and entertainment options. 


Golden Heaven

DVD Library

Homespun and unfussy, this stone villa is the ideal place for relaxing with your loved ones – that is, when you’re not stretched out on the shores of Istron Bay (less than a ten-minute stroll from your doorstep).

Cook up traditional Cretan cuisine in the farmhouse-style kitchen, then serve at the outdoor dining table on the flagstone terrace. While away the hours in the pool or from the comfort of a lounger – the south-facing position of the abode means you get sunshine all day long. 

The quiet bedrooms demand cat naps in the afternoon but if you’re itching to explore, the nearby hotel has a variety of amenities to keep the whole family busy. Practice your drop shot on the tennis courts as the little ones let off some steam in the children’s club. Retreat to your pad in the evening for a glass of wine alfresco as the sky turns pink.

Blissful Sun

Overlooking Elounda Bay, this hillside haven sets the tone for a relaxing coastal escape. There’s a large garden with a swimming pool and multiple seating areas to sit back and savour those beautiful views. And while the outdoor space takes centre stage, the rooms have plenty to offer, too. Highlights include the jacuzzi and the home gym – a nice option for those looking to keep their exercise regime in check. And for explorations further afield, it’s just a short drive to the beach as well as the restaurants, bars and shops of Elounda.
