Escape to total tranquillity at this hidden villa in Xirokambi, where panoramic views and peaceful surroundings welcome you. All on one level, it has a bright open-plan living space, a fully equipped kitchen, and even yoga mats for slow stretches in the morning (facing the gorgeous sea views, of course). Outside, the saltwater pool, shaded pergola, and barbecue area make long, lazy afternoons a given. Topping it all off is the sense of seclusion – you’ll feel wonderfully removed from it all, yet perfectly placed to soak up the beauty of Crete – being only a fifteen-minute drive to the coast.
