Wake up rested and refreshed, open the windows, and let the warm sea breeze greet you, welcoming another day in this blue slice of paradise. That’s how we picture it. This gorgeous villa, situated right on the seafront, with stunning views and stylish décor is the ideal place to experience all the wonders that the mythical island of Crete has to offer. There is plenty of room here for a small family or an intimate group of friends, and you’ll get an opportunity to spend memorable moments together, as well as find a secluded spot for some alone time. The outdoor space is a glorious, beachfront affair, where you’ll no doubt choose to enjoy leisurely breakfasts and sunset cocktails. There are sun loungers here to lie about and lose yourself in a holiday read, as well as a dining area for enjoying those communal feasts under the starry Mediterranean sky. The inside is bright and airy, with comfy furnishings, inviting you to gather everyone together for evenings of wine and laughter, or for movie nights. Should a chillier evening catch you by surprise, there is also a fireplace for added cosiness. Rustle up a delicious supper in the modern kitchen,... and enjoy it in the handsome dining area. Nights carry the promise of restful sleep, courtesy of the plush bedrooms, with luxurious beds and light furnishings. Wake up bright-eyed and ready for a day of exploring: there is plenty to do around here, from stunning beaches to the charming, picturesque village of Gouves just a short walk away.

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...
