Arrive and rejuvenate in absolute harmony with nature on the idyllic beachfront of Crete in two adjacent villas. A delightful choice for large groups of friends and family, not one corner of the property is lacking that rustic and welcoming Greek charm. Spend lazy days revelling by the pool stretching all throughout the garden while tasting fresh Greek yoghurt and honey, escape down to the beach and twinkling blue waters via the villa’s private access, dine underneath the pergola with local fare roasted on the barbecue and let the kids frolic in the designated playground in the yard. We were impressed by the villa’s endless outdoor living and sun-lounging spaces that gave us the impression we were on our own private island altogether. If you do so choose to explore outside the villa, in only moments you can immerse yourself in the olive-growing oasis of Crete where the verdant nature, a vast array of white sand beaches, and local village tavernas will welcome you.
