With beautiful views over Spinalonga Island, this villa has a wonderful location – we particularly love the vistas from the bedrooms and living room. On chilly nights, there’s a feature wood burner to cosy up in front of and when it's lovely and warm there’s a stone wall-enclosed terrace with a small pool/Jacuzzi to relax in. Out and about, go for a stroll on one of the stunning beaches of Elounda Bay or head to Agios Nikolaos with its array of bars and restaurants.
