Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
It might not be the biggest home in our Cretan collection, but this modest villa has everything you need to unwind in style. Neutral tones give the interior a lovely, calming feel, while the palm-lined garden comes complete with plenty of outdoor seating for socialising with your fellow guests. Come together for an alfresco feast on the terrace or plunge into the private swimming pool and let the colour-changing lights set the mood for the rest of your evening. In the unlikely event that you fancy a change of scenery, Paralia Nopigia is right on your doorstep, and is the perfect setting for a coastal walk away from the crowds. Dip your toes in the Mediterranean Sea, then drive into Kissamos for an authentic meal at one of the local restaurants before heading home to watch the sunset. Bliss.

Local guide
About Kissamos
Despite its idyllic coastline, Kissamos has remained relatively hidden from the crowds of tourists that descend on Crete each summer. It’s mainly locals you’ll see wandering the narrow streets here, but that’s not to say that this place is totally untouched by tourism. Stroll down to Telonio Beach’s cobbled promenade and you’ll find plenty of seaside tavernas serving hearty Cretan fare, as well as a smattering of bars and clubs...
