Group getaways are a breeze when you stay at this home in the village of Kefalas. Set over three neighbouring villas, it provides plenty of space to stretch out, along with a little extra privacy for your party. Each house has its own swimming pool, so there’s lots of room to swim and sunbathe, and there are sofa beds to sleep extra guests if needed. The location is great too – halfway between Chania and Rethymnon for days out and a short drive from some of Crete’s sun-kissed beaches.

Home truths
The accommodation here is set across three neighbouring villas, each with its own living area, kitchen, and pool. One villa has four bedrooms, one has three bedrooms, and the smallest villa has one bedroom.
The three pools vary in size here – one is on the smaller side, making it more of a plunge pool and less suitable for swimming.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. Free parking is available.

Even so, it wasn’t until recently that European tourists got wind of its seaside charm and began flocking to it in the warm, summer months, enjoying gorgeous views of Souda Bay and sampling local, Cretan cuisine at a handful of family-run tavernas.
