Olia

Showcasing the beauty of island living, this cluster of villas has access to the golden sand of a private beach just below. Built for sun worshippers, there's ample outdoor space. And everything from alfresco lunches to sunset drinks on the balcony will give you a glimpse of the shimmering sea on the horizon. Accommodating up to forty-two guests across five villas, the space is ideal for family reunions and even small ceremonies. Location-wise, you're about fifteen minutes from Crete's largest city in Crete, Heraklion.

Home truths:
*While all the bedrooms and bathrooms aren't photographed, expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home. The bedrooms are split between four adjacent villas.
*There’s free garage parking available here.
*The swimming pools aren't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
*One well-behaved dog is welcome to accompany you during your stay.
*Events may be allowed here – speak to your host.
*If you want to stock up on essentials during your stay, you'll find the closest mini market 600m away.
*As with most homes in Greece, toilet paper can't be flushed. Please use the sanitary bin provided.
