This charming villa by the sea is the perfect destination for your next holiday. With plenty of space for all the family, and then a few more, it's a wonderfully peaceful place where you can spend some quality time together. The interior effortlessly blends luxury and comfort together – from the hand-crafted staircase to the serene living room, there's plenty to admire here. The tranquil blue colour scheme helps to draw your eyes to the windows, where you can gaze out at the stunning sea views. Step outside, and you'll find a spacious garden, full of fragrant flowers, and a terrace where you can kick back and relax in the sunshine. And, when the heat gets too much, you can plunge into the sparkling swimming pool for a refreshing dip. The shoreline of Paleokastro Beach is just a five-minute drive away, with its crystal clear waters and golden sand. Agia Pelagia, the popular resort town, is just ten minutes away by car, and is home to another beach along with tavernas, boutiques, and seafood restaurants. And if you want to explore further afield, head inland to discover hilltop monasteries and tiny villages which have hardly changed in centuries.

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...
