For an idyllic family-friendly retreat, head to seven-bedroomed Villa Souda near the seaside city of Chania on the northwest coast of Crete. It’s an extensive three-level villa with a private pool. Surrounded by lush gardens with vegetables, herbs and a vineyard, alongside rustic stone fencing, it’s secluded and private. Plus, it’s just 200 metres from Vlites Beach – a sandy, well-protected bay.
Laid-out for a relaxing home from home stay, there are parking spaces on site, alongside an outdoor barbecue and a wood oven. Shaded by parasols and surrounded by a garden dotted with palm and cypress trees, rock gardens and flower arrangements, the inviting pool area is a lovely spot to pass the day, especially with a cooling drink in hand. There are grassy areas – perfect for children to play safely and in sight – and plenty of chairs and sun loungers for you to while away the day on.
The air-conditioned villa has Wi-Fi throughout and is decorated modern in style with cream-coloured walls and contemporary furnishings. The seven bedrooms, sleeping up to fourteen, are all light and welcoming and have TVs and plenty of wardrobe space for storing your belongings. There are four bathrooms, a fully-equipped kitchen with a dishwasher, alongside a comfortable living room with a large sofa, plasma and fireplace. Let’s not forget the stylish dining room, which seats fourteen, either.
While you lounge in the pool, gazing at the Aegean from your secluded spot, it’s easy to imagine it’s not a holiday villa at all, but your fanciest friends’ home. In the evening, you can dine al fresco on your terrace while enjoying the relaxing atmosphere and beautiful sunset, or head 50 metres down the road where there are two scenic local tavernas by the sea.
If you’d like to discover more of the area, Villa Souda is ideally located to visit Crete’s must-see hotspots, historical sites and archaeological treasures. You’re only 800 metres from amenities including a supermarket and a cinema with bowling and 5km from the centre of Chania.
