Soak up the Grecian sunshine from this villa, based in Gallos and just a short drive from north Crete's stunning beaches. This home is designed to make the most of the gorgeous weather, with an outdoor pool for cooling off and plenty of loungers for topping up your tan. We love the balcony, providing picturesque views of the sea in the distance. Interior-wise, a couple of sofa beds means ten guests could fit – although it'll be a squeeze. And while it may not have the swanky contemporary style or the quaint charm of some other villas on the island, we think it's a joyful place to make some happy holiday memories.
