Perched 35 metres above sea level, this breathtaking villa presents a haven of luxury to enjoy while discovering the best of Crete. First things first, head up to the roofed terrace and take a moment to come to terms with just how mesmerising the views from this place truly are. You might have to pinch yourself when waking up here each morning. Up at the top, you'll find a monastery style table with up to twenty chairs – perfect for a large group celebratory dinner amidst the scenic setting.

During the peak heat of the day, you'll probably want to spend your time whiling away in the infinity pool with a jacuzzi sunken spa and waterfall feature. From here, gaze out the all blue vistas before you and tune in to the art of relaxation. Extend the experience to the outdoor shower are and at home hammam with a relaxation area. Craving it already? Once you're feeling refreshed and rejuvenated you'll be ready to explore the vibrant culture of the locale and the rest of Crete.

Downhill steps lead to the walking road and private access to the sea, and if you feel like venturing further afield, immediate access to the highway means you'll be within easy reach of the beaches of Heraklion including Lygaria, Agia, Pelagia, Mononaftis and Amoudara Beach.
