White Mountain Morning Livadi, Crete

Property Description

With all the independence of a self-contained villa plus all the handy amenities of a small complex, this home is set in lush gardens in a beautiful spot overlooking the sea. Just a few minutes walk from Tersanas Beach, it's comfortable and charming, with incredible views all the way to the White Mountains.

Here you can start the day with breakfast on the terrace, and follow it up with a swim in your private freshwater infinity pool. Spend the day on the beach or at the site's communal pool, or take the kids to the outdoor play area to let off some steam. There's a well-equipped kitchen at home and a communal poolside snack bar to choose between, or buy some local produce and whip up a barbecue on the terrace.

Inside, the home is full of character, with a traditional, home from home feel. You'll have plenty of comfy bedrooms to pick from; two with access to outside spaces where you can relax in peace with a good book.

Head into Chania on the bus in less than half an hour for evenings out, or just stay in this lovely, peaceful area where you'll find a choice of tavernas within walking distance.

Home truths:
*This isn't a standalone home but one set on a small complex and while you have a private pool, the communal pool is larger and has a children's section
*At capacity, one guest would be sleeping on a sofa bed in the second bedroom – this would be ideal for a child
*There's laptop-friendly workspace here
*Most of the accommodation is on one level, with just three steps up to the bedrooms
*There's parking on-site but public transport passes almost every hour to and from Chania
*A cot and high chair are available if you're bringing a little one
*Daily housekeeping is included but laundry is an additional charge
