Close to the pretty shores of Chanina, plus its picturesque villages and winding cobbled streets, this villa blends traditional architecture with luxurious amenities perfectly. The outside showcases a slightly rustic exposed brick, green gardens brimming with colorful Mediterranean flowers, plus a private pool which is bound to be a welcome feature on those hot summer afternoons. Spend your days exploring the island, which offers white-sand beaches, a 14th-century Venetian harbour, and several fascinating museums if you're keen to dive into the area's rich history. The Old Town is the perfect lunch spot, where tables line the streets and authentic Cretan food can be found at every turn. Before heading home, be sure to stop at the Municipal Market to pick up some fresh ingredients for dinner. This home boasts an outdoor kitchen, as well as a dining table under the shade of a pergola. Fire up the barbecue and tuck into a delicious feast of local produce, and enjoy the warm evening air. A post-dinner drink on the balcony is the best way to round off a day and appreciate the scenery that surrounds you.
