It's Playtime

For a family holiday in Crete with everything to hand, this is a great option. This villa is part of a complex of two villas in Akoumia, looking out over the Libyan Sea and boasting panoramic views. As you sip lemonade by the pool, your gaze will drift to the mountains in the distance. This is a peaceful home far from the touristy crowds, ideal for family breaks and making memories.

Perhaps you’ll start the day with a family breakfast on the balcony. It’s the best place in the villa to take in the view. The little ones will likely want to jump straight in the pool before spending the rest of their day playing on the swings and slide. You might settle in a hammock to doze in the sunshine or read a book under an umbrella by the pool.

The beautiful Triopetra beach is just five minutes away by car, with clear water to swim in. The town has a few tavernas, so you can go from the beach to lunch, soaking up the atmosphere of the small town.

In the evenings, you might drive to a nearby town for dinner, or perhaps you’ll shop locally for fresh seafood and grill it on the barbecue. Sip wine as the sun sets, and enjoy the romance once the kids are in bed.


Home truths:
*This home is spread over two floors with no internal lift, so may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
*The twin room can be set up as a double on request
*A single sofa bed can be added to the twin room to accommodate an additional guest on request
*Your host can provide a cot and high chair for little ones on request
*Due to the location of this home, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay
*This home is in a complex with another villa – while they each have a private pool and their own garden, there isn’t much of a wall to separate the outside spaces so it’s not the most private set-up
