The traditional past meets the modern present when you vacation in the exquisitely restored Villa Harmony 1885, nestled overlooking the North coast of the Greek island of Crete, set in the heart of the Aegean Sea. This unique residence was built in 1885 and was originally a merchant’s family summer holiday home, which has recently been lovingly transformed by his descendants, into the most luxurious three individual holiday accommodation spaces.
