While the coastal resort of Hersonissos is a vibrant spot for dining and drinking, there are pockets of serenity and seclusion slightly inland. Only a twenty-minute walk from Hersonissos Beach, and a forty-minute drive from Agios Nikolaos, this villa offers an experience of complete luxury in the village of Piskopiano. After winding past traditional tavernas and cafés, arriving at this vast home is quite the contrast. Glass-fronted balconies and terraces, a pentagon-shaped infinity pool, and lush green lawns give the impression of an LA-style mansion on this ancient island. But it’s not just about the exteriors. Inside, while you admire its tasteful, minimalist decor, you’ll soon find the facilities are anything but minimal. Use the internal lift to discover the gym, Swedish sauna, and hydromassage Jacuzzi on the lower-ground floor. Or pay a visit to the upstairs bedrooms, with exposed stone feature walls, balconies, and gorgeous tiling in the en-suites. End your tour on the alfresco dining terrace on the ground floor, where you can crack open a bottle of Cretan wine. Breathe in that fresh, sea air then take to the sun loungers to say cheers under the shade of the native trees.
