Perched above the hills of a traditional village, this modern four-bedroom villa comes with stretching sea views of the big blue Aegean. It’s an incredible catch, even if we say so ourselves. Everything is thought out, from a sauna (available for a fee) and gym to easy access for those with reduced mobility, including a lift leading up to the balcony views and plenty of garden space. If you prefer to stay in, there's plenty of space to stretch out as the sea breeze drifts through. Outside, there’s no shortage of room to entertain, along with comfortable spots to stargaze as night falls.

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...
