Situated a short distance from Chrysi Ammos Beach on Crete’s northern coast, and around half an hour’s drive from bustling Heraklion, this villa is ideally located for a memorable holiday. Whether you’re staying as a small family or a couple of friends, the private terrace is sure to please, featuring a pool, loungers and dining table for meals in the sunshine. If you plan on cooking, it's worth noting that the kitchenette is better suited for lighter bites, though there are a couple of restaurants nearby if you'd prefer to dine out.

Home truths
We recommend hiring a car if you’d like to explore the island. Parking is available on the premises.
Please note, the pool isn’t fenced, so young children will need to be supervised outside at all times.
You won't find a hob here – though there is an oven and microwave. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.

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...
