Situated a six-minute drive from Crete’s northern coast, this serene villa with plenty of modern trimmings is an idyllic place for families or groups of friends to spend some time together. We imagine you’ll while away the hours in the garden, sunbathing on loungers, bobbing about in the unique iridescent pool, picking home-grown vegetables and juicy oranges, and dining in the fresh, open air. Come evening, pour yourself a glass of traditional tsikoudia and make a beeline for the terrace to catch the last of the day’s glorious golden light. Wake up bright and early in premium quality beds and tuck into the inclusive Cretan breakfast provided by your host. Relax with a cup of coffee in the uncluttered living space – we loved the neutral tones, exposed stone walls and clerestory windows. Plan your agenda at the dining table before slipping on your sandals and jumping in the car to Gerani Beach – or why not make the short drive to Chania if you fancy swapping the sea for the city.
