Less than a ten-minute stroll from Kalathas Beach, this villa puts an open-air restaurant and supermarket on your doorstep. While the modern slatted walls may not appeal to everyone, how about those sea views from the en-suite bathroom and balcony? This home's saltwater pool and alfresco dining area guarantee relaxation, even though the terrace is slightly overlooked. Tired after your drive into culture-rich Chania? Hire a private chef to take the pressure off dinner or unwind with a professional massage.

Home truths:
*While one of the bathrooms isn’t photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home.
*The main bedroom's dressing area is partially visible from the sleeping space through wooden slats. Similarly, the en-suite bathrooms have slatted walls offering minimal privacy.
*The pool terrace is somewhat overlooked by the adjacent building. There's a chance you might see a neighbour or two through the window, so it doesn't feel completely private.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot for free upon request.
*The swimming pool is disinfected safely using salt electrolysis.
