Location:

Villa 8 Senses straddles a tranquil bay opposite Heraklion, the laidback capital of Crete.

The property is blessed by sweeping Aegean Sea views and sits surrounded by a lush garden with leafy Mediterranean plants.

A garden path leads straight down to the sea.

The sandy Ammoudara or Agia Pelagia beaches lie within easy reach. The Heraklion Airport is about 20km away.

Property:

Villa 8 Senses spans 185m2 over two storeys; ample room to host up to six guests.

The spacious master bedroom boasts an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in closet plus a breezy balcony with an outdoor Jacuzzi. The other two bedrooms come complete with contemporary furnishings and a shared bathroom.

The main communal space resides downstairs, where an open plan living room comes with plush designer sofas and a stylish six-seater dining set. An attached kitchen features all the mod-cons you need to prepare a delicious meal.

Floor-to-ceiling windows open out onto the terrace for a closer connection to the great outdoors.

Pool & Facilities:

On the terrace, a crystal clear infinity pool overlooks the glistening Aegean Sea. Sip a sun downer in the attached whirlpool—the best way to cap off a perfect day. Lined by sun loungers and immaculately manicured Mediterranean plants, it’s an idyllic spot to spend a lazy afternoon.

A barbeque and outdoor dining set beckon charming alfresco meals with a view.

To truly relax and unwind, pop into the estate’s private hammam for a steamy sauna session.

Beach info:

The golden sand beaches of Ammoudara and Agia Pelagia reside within a quick (7 km) car trip of the villa.
