Our luxury villas in Crete have been hand-picked for their authenticity, comfort and, of course, location, enabling you to explore some of the island’s outstanding historical sites, beautiful beaches and rugged gorges and canyons.
The idyllic coves, tiny fishing villages and charming small towns of Crete belie its status as the largest of the Greek islands, with a formidable history as Europe’s first advanced society. Indeed, historians will delight in the remains of Minoan Palaces at Knossos and Phaistos, the sunken city of Olous and the fascinating island of Spinalonga, once a Venetian fortress and later a leper colony brought to life in Victoria Hislop’s The Island.
Our villas in Crete are centred on the sought-after areas of Elounda in the east, where Villa Selene offers direct sea access, and Kolymbari in the west where neighbouring properties Villa Filira and Villa Ianira enjoy fine sea views from their hillside position, and easy access to traditional seafront tavernas. Ammos and Anemos are within walking distance of the resort and beach at Almyrida, and just a short drive from the 14th century Venetian harbour town of Chania.
