This first-floor villa offers privacy and peace with all the luxuries of a boutique hotel. With a free limousine from the airport and a decadent arrival hamper of food, wine, and comfy slippers, you're guaranteed a warm welcome. There are plenty of standout features here – a sauna, balcony, and home cinema, plus direct access to a private section of the beach and a pool where you can request a waiter service. You'll be hard-pressed to leave, but we think the on-site bar and restaurant offer tempting incentives. And the eateries, monuments and shops of Heraklion are less than 27km away, perfect for a day trip.
