Villa Oleandro Greece
Holiday Home Rental Description
Villa Oleandro offers the finest luxury and style across vast interiors and serene gardens, in an idyllic hilltop location on the Akrotiri Peninsula, just a stones throw from the Cretian coastline. This property is spread across 2 separate units that combine to accommodate up to 16 persons (14 adults, 2 children), making this villa an ideal choice for large groups looking to experience all this beautiful and varied island has to offer.
The interiors have all been designed with an acute eye for blending style with the highest quality comforts and amenities. Both modern and traditional motifs are employed with a stunning attention to detail throughout the 500sqm living space, whilst automated technology allows for your holiday to flow seemlessly with your every need catered for.
Stepping outdoors, there is a huge salt water pool with magnificent views, and a barbeque and dining area under the welcome shade of a pergola. All the while the whole property enjoys gentle aromas from the aromatic herbs and flowers that grow in the surrounding gardens.
Whether you dream of lazy days by the pool or down on the sandy beach soaking up the Mediterranean sunshine, or maybe you’d rather be exploring the rugged mountains and snorkelling out at sea, whatever pastime you select, Villa Oleandro ensures an unforgettable luxury holiday experience on this fantastic island.Villa Oleandro enjoys a fantastic hilltop location in the stunning countryside surrounding the city of Chania (7.8 km), whilst only a few steps from the sea and the Blue flag sandy beach of Agios Ounofrios. The gorgeous village of Kounopidiana is only 1.5 km far and boasts a selection of traditional greek tavernas, lively bars and local shops.
The whole North coast of Crete is a succession of incredible beaches with crystal clear waters, where you can relax on comfortable sunbeds, find shelter under very handy parasols or join an array of exciting watersport activities. Tersanas, Kalatha, Macherida, Stavros, Marathi and Seitan Limania are just a few options, all within a 20 minutes drive!
A visit to the ancient city of Chania, which also hosts an airport, is highly recommended. The city has seen many civilisations come and go over thousands of years of settlement, from Minoans to Romans, Byzantine to Ottoman, amd this rich history has carved out a unique and mysterious town.
Most of the restaurants, museums, churches and craft shops centre around the gorgeous Venetian harbour, which represents a window into the past Turkish and Venetian architecture that has otherwise largely been destroyed by war. Watching the sunset past the old lighthouse is a truly unmissable experience, but the area offers a different picturesque aesthetic at any given time of day.
Be sure to sample the fresh fish they pull in from the harbour each day, or even take a boat out and do some fishing or snorkeling yourself!
Along with the above sightseeing opportunities, keep in mind that the Akrotiri Peninsula has a number of unique archeological sites which are certainly worth a visit. Explore the caves of Stavros, Arkalospilio and Arkaudospilius, and discover the fascinating history lying behind the Gouverneto and Saint John the Hermit monasteries.
