The VillaThis restored villa stands on its own, in a raised position approximately 800 metres above the village of Lefkogia and offers beautiful panoramic views over the area of Plakias and to the Libyan Sea beyond. Pretty gardens, fruit trees and olive groves on 5000 sq m grounds surround the house. The villa is 120 sq m in area and suitable for 6–7 people, with a 50 sq m swimming pool, maximum 1.70 m deep (with children’s pool, 0.50 m deep) and a barbecue area in the garden.
Location
The old Cretan fishing village of Plakias, with its little
harbour, lies in a particularly beautiful landscape between
the blue Libyan Sea and vast majestic mountains that edge
down to one of the loveliest bays on the south coast. It is
about one and a half hour’s drive from Chania or Heraklion.
Many years ago, there were only a few houses but today, because
of its delightful setting, the village has spread to cater
for the growing numbers of tourists, who have told each other
of this special place that they have found. However, it still
retains its particular Cretan character and has kept its laid
back charm. The bay has a long sand and shingle beach between
headlands that gets sandier the farther you go from the village.
In the village of Lefkogia there are 2 mini-markets, 2 tavernas and a bakery. A large choice of amenities can be found in Plakias, and the beautiful pebble bays of Ammoudi are only 2 km away. For a further excellent choice, the beaches of Shoinaria, Damnoni and Plakias are about 4 km away.
Accommodation
The villa entrance is reached via a terrace on a raised ground
floor; it leads to the living area with a fireplace, one sofa
bed, TV and stereo system. The kitchen/dining area also has
a washing machine and is separated from the living room by
an arch. Just off the kitchen, there is a small balcony with
mountain views. Further on this floor, there is a double bedroom
and a shower/WC.
A wooden staircase leads to the upper floor with a bathroom/WC,
a further twin-bedded room (1 stone built-in bed and 1 single
bed), and a bedroom with twin beds. From the corridor one
reaches a balcony with fabulous views over the surrounding
area and beyond to the sea.
FacilitiesAll bedrooms have air conditioning (without extra charge). A baby cot is available.
