Prepare for a switch-off at this characterful villa in the Panormo region of Crete. You're surrounded by olive groves, mountains and sea views, and there’s a private pool to soak it all in. Well-suited to multi-generational stays, the main house is joined by a separate annexe for two – perfect for anyone wanting a little independence from the group. While over in the main house, every bedroom comes with its own balcony. But the real highlight has to be the sea-facing veranda, complete with a Jacuzzi and a small bar – made for golden hour drinks. A car is recommended for exploring, but with Panormo Beach just two kilometres away and local tavernas even closer, you won’t need to go far.

About Crete

The biggest of Greece’s islands, Crete has thousands of years of history scattered across its wild hinterland, and a coast dotted with secluded bays. The capital of Heraklion is a lively port city with a world-class museum, but the main draw to the island are the crumbling ruins, white mountains, and crystal clear waters for swimming and snorkeling. Evidence of the ancient Minoans that once lived here is on display...
