Found in the rural area of Nea Magnesia, this home, with the beach right on its doorstep, is the ideal getaway for large parties wanting to explore the beautiful island of Crete. Made up of three apartments, this villa guarantees privacy for everyone whilst still allowing for the group to come together in the communal areas. Make a splash in the shared pool or watch the sunset from the hot tub, walk down to the beach and spend the day in the surf and sand, or claim a sunlounger from where you can work on your tan whilst also catching up on your reading. Grill a Mediterranean feast on the barbecue whilst the kids keep themselves busy in the play area and come together at sunset to enjoy a glass of wine with dinner on the balcony. Meals can also be taken at the bench-style dining table. Drive minutes away to explore Rethymno. Grab a coffee, visit the folklore museum, and wander the streets admiring the colourful alleys, Venetian port and everything else that makes this little town one of the most beautiful places in Greece.
