Villas Sidonia are a pair of neighbouring beachfront villas on the southern coast of Heraklion, designed for groups who want to holiday together without compromising on space or privacy. Sleeping up to twelve guests across two identical three-bedroom villas, this setup is particularly well suited to two families or groups of friends travelling together.
Positioned just steps from the shoreline, the modern villas offer uninterrupted sea views and direct access to the beach, creating a seamless connection between indoor living and the coast. Each villa is thoughtfully laid out across multiple levels, combining contemporary design with practical features, including open-plan living spaces, en-suite bedrooms, and expansive outdoor areas.
A standout feature is the rooftop level in each villa, where a private jacuzzi, lounge space, and adjustable pergola create a unique setting for relaxing day or night. The villas can be enjoyed independently or connected via a connecting gate at the pool level and a discreet access door on the rooftop, allowing guests to move easily between both properties, perfect for socialising.
With private pools, outdoor dining areas, and dedicated beachfront sunbeds, Villas Sidonia provides a flexible and well-equipped base for a coastal stay in southern Crete.
- One of the bedrooms in each villa is located on the ground floor
- We do recommend hiring a car in order to reach amenities and explore all that southern Crete has to offer.
