Spread over three levels, this villa provides more than enough space for a group of six. The swimming pool helps keeps things cool during the height of summer, while the underfloor heating comes in handy if you’re staying during the off-season. Mealtimes are a pleasure thanks to the fully-equipped kitchen, barbecue and alfresco dining area, but if you fancy eating out, the tavernas of Kera are less than a ten-minute drive away. Ready to hit the beach? Perivolakia’s pebbled shores are reachable by car.

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...
