Location? Tick – you're less than a fifteen-minute walk from the centre of Chania. Alfresco dining terrace? Tick – we can already imagine preparing sunset meals in the outdoor kitchen, while little ones play in the children's pool. Wine cellar? Also tick – and just for good measure, there's an adjacent indoor grotto pool for those who fancy sipping a cold glass of retsina (the local choice) while dipping their toes in the water. A sleek, open-plan interior with vaulted ceilings and a woodburner completes this stunning home. Considering Chania's beaches and historic sights are on your doorstep, you'll feel absolutely spoiled.
