About this property

Beautiful, Cretan-style villa set in the charming village of Roumeli. The villa sleeps 4 people (5-6 with sofa bed), is completely private, and has fantastic sea and mountain views.

The villa has one double bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, one twin room (which can be turned into a double), and one additional bathroom. The main living area and kitchen are open-plan with high ceilings, giving the villa an airy, spacious feel. You'll have access to wifi and a digital TV with sports channels showing lot's of live international sport.

The bedrooms and open-plan living area all have individual air-conditioning units.

The villa has a covered patio with a large table perfect for dining al fresco, a garden area, and a built-in brick BBQ. There is also a roof terrace perfect for watching the Cretan sunsets with an evening drink.

There is a large private swimming pool, complete with lilos, and four loungers for sun bathing. Overlooking the pool is a mural inspired by the famous labyrinth where Theseus encountered the Minotaur, painted in classic colours. You can visit the original site in historical Knossas, not far from Heraklion.

There are two supermarkets and and two cafes in the village, all within walking distance. The nearest beach is 1.8km away in the seaside village of Panormo, which also has lots of tavernas, shops, spas and small bars. There is a lovely authentic taverna (Taverna Roumeli) less than a 10-minutes walk away from the villa, which has panoramic views of the countryside, and delicious (very affordable!) food.

We recommend renting a car whilst you stay at Villa Ionides, but can also recommend a reliable local taxi number for trips where you don't wish to drive.

All bookings are exclusive.

Perfect place

This property was even better than we'd hoped for! It was the perfect size for 4 ( and even better when it was just the 2 of us!) and so comfortable and well equipped. We were there for a month (from mid September) so were especially pleased that the double bed was so comfy! As for the outside space - well!! Not only was so it so beautiful and spacious, with amazing views, but there were lots of different areas so you could always get sun or shade somewhere. It was great having the rooftop terrace to sip something tasty while watching the sunset and admiring the views - the mountains, the sea and the sky. And the pool was perfect, somehow always remaining cool, and beautiful in the evening with the pool lights on. The location of the villa in a quiet village suited us perfectly. You can easily walk to a well stocked supermarket and the best ever local taverna. It's a 30 minute, fairly strenuous walk to the beach and lovely town of Panormos - we enjoyed it, but if it was too hot them it was an easy 5 minute drive away. The village is so well located on the island for sightseeing - we saw so much, and would recommend a car (but get a small one, as there are some very narrow roads!) Oh yes - there's also the most friendly little winery very nearby, which we'd definitely recommend. Ed, the owner, was a great host - communication with him was always excellent. His local recommendations (eg for Spilies beach) were spot on. Book this villa if you can!

Wonderful stay.

A lovely villa with great facilities with easy access for local towns and beaches. The pool is a definite asset anytime of the day, especially after the sun has set and the pool lights are switched on. As a host Ed is very helpful and replies swiftly should you have any queries. The town of Margaritas and Spillies beach were highlights for us as were the local tavernas. Quieter beaches on the south coast are only an hour away as well as a spectacular gorge! Occasional visits from the local chickens next door were a hoot but no means a pest. Opening the exterior doors onto the poolside gives the property a certain character, with plenty of seating for following the sun or keeping in the shade. The roof terrace gives a wonderful panoramic view. We'd definitely stay at the villa in the future.

Perfect find

Gem of a find for us. Had the perfect balance of quite location, but not to far from anything. Top points for us were the pool, just the right size and very clean and the double bed was super comfortable. Views were beautiful of both the sea and surrounding mountains. AC in the living area was very effective. Would be nice to have in the bedrooms, but the fans helped, and for most of the year are probably sufficient. Ed, the owner was very responsive and on hand throughout. Would highly recommend, had a fab holiday. Thankyou
