A world away from the hustle and bustle that typically characterises the island of Crete, its south coast is delightfully peaceful. In place of lively resort towns thronging with tourists, it offers perfectly preserved fishing settlements, tranquil beaches and an ambience of calm. You'll find this charming home tucked away in the village of Kamilari, overlooking the crystal-clear waters of Mesaras Bay and out towards the Mediterranean Sea. From the outset, this home exudes authentic charm with its quaint stone facade, adorned with blue shuttered windows and terracotta tiles. Perfect for couples, the interior is compact yet beautifully equipped and offers an array of amenities, including a shared pool and garden. After a restful slumber, spend the early hours roosted on your private balcony, sipping coffee in the crisp sea breeze. Spend your days paddling in the pool, admiring panoramic sea views between laps, or take a seven-minute drive to Kalamaki and relax on its expansive white-sand beach. Come sunset, fire up the barbecue and enjoy a delicious alfresco feast under the stars.

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...
