Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

Sleek and serene, this villa offers excellent views and lots of space for relaxing. Kids will love the heated swimming pool, and the outdoor kitchen is well-equipped for family meals, with plenty of seating in the shade. Downstairs, you'll find a private spa and gym, along with a cinema room and four en-suite bedrooms. The sprawling main suite is on the entrance floor, with an in-room bathtub by the window to enjoy stunning panoramas while you soak. Parking is also provided – we think you'll want a car here to get to the nearest beaches and explore the surrounding beauty of Crete.

Home truths

    The main suite's bathtub sits directly in the room and isn't very private.

    There's free parking here. Due to its location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.

    There are steps inside and outside. Most of the bedrooms here are downstairs, with the main suite on the first level, so climbing stairs will be required during your stay.

    The pool here can be heated for free. It's unfenced, so children should always be supervised when playing outside.

    If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace.

    If you're travelling by plane, Chania Airport is the nearest airport – it's a forty-minute drive from this home.
