Golden Harbour Charm

You might find it difficult to tempt children away from this villa once you've arrived. There's a playground, outdoor pool (with a dedicated shallow section), and a football field – and the open-plan terrace means it's easy to keep little ones in sight while you barbecue. Anyone looking to slip away for a workout can do so in the fully-equipped gym, and the upstairs balcony is the perfect spot for after-dinner, adults-only drinks with a sea view. In the unlikely chance you do find yourself idle at any moment (the interiors might be a little uninspiring for long days at home), Chania is just a twenty-minute drive away – and the nearest beach even closer.

Home truths:
*The maximum occupancy for this home is 12 adults and two children. The children will sleep on a sofa bed converted into two single beds in the ground-floor office.

*Weekly housekeeping and linen changes are included at this home.
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and a high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance. Please note that the swimming pool isn't fenced.
