Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This luxurious villa is tucked away in a peaceful setting, far from the hustle and bustle. When you’re craving bright lights and historic sights, though, Heraklion is only fifteen minutes away. High ceilings and an open-plan layout maximise the villa’s natural light. We love the shared swimming pool and tennis court, as well as the tropical gardens. You’ll also have a hot tub to relax in. Several guests will be sleeping on sofa beds though, which may not be the most comfortable set up for long-term stays.
The Plum Promise
- No time for average – We reject thousands of homes worldwide, so you don't have to.
- Hosts we know – With track records of high-quality hosting.
- Rated ‘Excellent’ on Trustpilot – Exceptional service before, during and after your stay.

Local guide
About Heraklion Town
Affectionately dubbed ‘small Athens’, Heraklion is Crete’s largest and most populated city. What started out as a fortified harbour town has grown into a bona fide tourist hotspot, popular for its year-round warm weather and palm-tree-lined seaside promenade. You only have to glance at a photo of its glistening port to understand why this place attracts so many visitors each year, but Heraklion has much more to offer than just...
