Thirty minutes from the landmark-dotted city of Chania, this charming villa is bound to win you over with its prime position in coastal Kolymvari, only a stone's throw from several open-air eateries. What's more, you can spend some sunny afternoons lazing on the nearby sands at Paralia Kolimpari. While enjoying this slow pace of life, how about admiring the local scenery on picturesque walks with your whole family? Perhaps you'll gather each morning beneath the high ceilings of an ever-flowing living space, complete with characterful arches. Whether you work up an appetite in the basement gym or jump straight into the infinity pool, this home considers everyone. You'll find no shortage of seating areas to unwind in. Amid a fragrant garden filled with fruit trees and olive groves, there's even a shallow pool and a play area waiting. After discussing tomorrow's plans during an alfresco dinner, just imagine rummaging through the wine cellar and picking out a Cretan bottle to uncork under a starry sky.

Local guide


About Kissamos

Despite its idyllic coastline, Kissamos has remained relatively hidden from the crowds of tourists that descend on Crete each summer. It’s mainly locals you’ll see wandering the narrow streets here, but that’s not to say that this place is totally untouched by tourism. Stroll down to Telonio Beach’s cobbled promenade and you’ll find plenty of seaside tavernas serving hearty Cretan fare, as well as a smattering of bars and clubs...
