This modern villa’s views over the Aegean Sea are breathtaking, no matter what time of day. Whether you’re admiring the blue vistas from the private pool in the afternoon or over an alfresco barbecue at sunset, you’ll find it hard to tear your eyes away from the stunning scenery. The on-site playground and three en-suite bedrooms over its two floors make it perfect for families, offering groups plenty of room, entertainment and fun at home. But should you wish to go out and explore, you need only make a beeline for nearby Agia Pelagia with its beach, bay and plethora of shops and restaurants.

About Heraklion Town

Affectionately dubbed ‘small Athens’, Heraklion is Crete’s largest and most populated city. What started out as a fortified harbour town has grown into a bona fide tourist hotspot, popular for its year-round warm weather and palm-tree-lined seaside promenade. You only have to glance at a photo of its glistening port to understand why this place attracts so many visitors each year, but Heraklion has much more to offer than just...
