Greek Ode

Greek Ode: Crete

Spill out into this palatial sea view villa set in over an acre of private grounds fringing the charming village of Giannoudi. You can expect gold-standard amenities to rival a five-star hotel here. Think indoor spa room with a hydro massage heated pool, six luxurious bedrooms offering private balconies or veranda access, and outside, a lagoon-style swimming pool and waterfall surrounded by oh-so-private gardens. Fancy breaking up pool days? Platanias Beach is just three kilometres away. Or let Concierge organise a day trip to Rethymno City, five kilometres away.

Home truths:
*Due to its rural location, a car is recommended for this home, and there is ample private parking outside.
*This home is set out over three floors with internal stairs and external steps to reach the poolside area, which may be unsuitable for guests with restricted mobility. However, two bedrooms with en suite bathrooms are located on the ground floor.
*The single beds can be joined to make king-size beds if you’d prefer, just request with your host in advance.
*If you’re travelling with little ones, a cot can be provided.
*A welcome basket is included to help settle you in.
