This villa showcases views of Psiloritis, a mountain considered to be the birthplace of Zeus. While the fuss-free design inside may not be fit for a Greek god, the garden is sure to impress. A private pool is perfect for sunny days, and there are balconies and sun loungers where you can sit back and take in the rural scenery. Location-wise, you're in a prime spot for discovering Crete. The famous Bali Beach is 35 kilometres away, while hotspots Heraklion and Rethymno are about a 50-kilometre drive. Closer to home, explore Sfentoni Cave or the pretty village of Anogia.

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...
