This charming villa sits in the peaceful village of Koxari. It boasts sea views and countryside vistas, which can be enjoyed from the terrace and beside the private pool. There’s a barbecue for alfresco dining on the patio, too. Inside, the villa is pretty and traditional. One of the bedrooms is on the mezzanine so is semi-open to the living space below, which isn’t entirely private – but could suit families with younger children. In terms of location, you’ll be just a five-minute drive from the village of Gouves, and ten minutes from pristine beaches.

About Heraklion Town

Affectionately dubbed ‘small Athens’, Heraklion is Crete’s largest and most populated city. What started out as a fortified harbour town has grown into a bona fide tourist hotspot, popular for its year-round warm weather and palm-tree-lined seaside promenade. You only have to glance at a photo of its glistening port to understand why this place attracts so many visitors each year, but Heraklion has much more to offer than just...
