Once home to the Minoans, it’s not hard to see why ancient civilizations once chose this part of Crete for relaxation. Sun worshippers will be pleased to hear that the southeast coast offers 330 days of sunshine, which can be enjoyed from the spacious yard offering hammocks, plush seating and a private pool. Everything you need is within walking distance here, so no need to worry about transport – the nearest beach is just 2km away. Why not speak to your host about a sunrise yoga session on the sand? If you're the outdoorsy type, you'll love the area's unique hiking routes and scenic bays.
