This traditional stone home provides guests with charm and comfort combined. As you wander through, you'll find the gorgeous stone walls and rustic decor, amplifying the cosy vibes during your stay in Greece. Whip up a tasty light bite in the kitchen, followed by tucking in at the lovely little indoor dining nook by the chandelier. Step onto the terrace to socialise over a bottle of red as you admire the gorgeous coastal view, before taking a dip in the soothing hot tub – we recommend this spot for evenings spent watching the magnificent sunset. After a day of exploration, enjoy some peace and quiet as you unwind in the unique deep bath, where you can rest amongst the fragrant and tranquil bubbles. Head out to explore the beautiful coast of Agios Vasileios. Spend the day at Agia Galini beach as you lay on the sand listening to the hum of the ocean waves. Afterward, visit the sparkling Agias Galinis Marina, where you can watch the yachts come and go as you look out upon the view.

About Crete

The biggest of Greece’s islands, Crete has thousands of years of history scattered across its wild hinterland, and a coast dotted with secluded bays. The capital of Heraklion is a lively port city with a world-class museum, but the main draw to the island are the crumbling ruins, white mountains, and crystal clear waters for swimming and snorkeling. Evidence of the ancient Minoans that once lived here is on display...
