Description Hilltop Abode: Iraklio

This hilltop home caught our eye for its sea views – best enjoyed while relaxing by the private pool or dining alfresco. Combining traditional Cretan architecture and contemporary features, the villa is light and airy, and perfectly positioned windows make the most of the surrounding scenery. If a day at the beach is on the cards, the nearest is 2.5 kilometres away. Or you can make the 3-kilometre drive to the coastal villages of Agia Pelagia and Lygaria, where you’ll find a choice of cafes, restaurants, and shops.

Home truths:
*Your host operates several villas here, so the exact view, layout and furnishings might differ slightly from the photos. However, the overall quality should remain the same.
*At full occupancy, one guest will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.
*The swimming pool isn't fenced.
*The en-suite bathroom has a glass wall so isn’t completely private.
*This is one of four villas on a complex so you’ll have direct neighbours here.
*Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.
