Stunning sea views, direct access to the beach and a private heated pool – this home welcomes you to enjoy it all from its privileged spot in Vathi. Located within an exclusive resort, this a great option for those seeking a relaxing getaway, whilst also enjoying access to a spa, fitness area and tennis courts alongside a range of restaurants and bars. And while you could spend your entire stay at home (hello room service), it’s just a ten-minute drive to Agios Nikolaos and a little further on to the charming fishing village of Elounda.

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.
