Situated on a hillside overlooking the sparkling Cretan Sea, this straight-talking villa is fresh and functional. With two sitting rooms to choose from and a sprawling terrace flanked with loungers, utter relaxation is guaranteed.

Begin your mornings with a coffee in the open-plan living area – we loved how the orange tones add a down-to-earth warmth to the room. Potter around the kitchenette, putting together a tasty breakfast for your loved ones to be enjoyed alfresco in the sunshine.

Slather on your sun cream and unwind by the pool as big and little kids alike splash around in the water. If you’d like to get to know your surroundings, take a stroll through your neighbourhood to Glaros Beach – a mere ten minutes from your doorstep.

For a little more hustle and bustle, jump in the car and drive for fifteen minutes to reach Chania, an evocative city with winding lanes and an incredible selection of restaurants that are not to be missed.
