Villa Aktea

in Hersonissos , Crete

 
  • Close to Hersonissos
  • Great pool scene
  • Al fresco dining
Teaming a peaceful rural setting with an impressive pool scene, the Villa Aktea is a great base for unwinding.
The Villa Aktea is set on the outskirts of Hersonissos, so you can look forward to lots of peace and quiet. That said, it’s close to all the essentials – the town centre is less than a 15-minute walk away, and the beach is just a bit further.

If it’s relaxation you’re after, though, you don’t need to venture far. At the property you’ll find a circular swimming pool, and there’s a smaller one for little guests, too. Come lunchtime, meanwhile, there’s a terrace and a barbecue for a bit of al fresco dining. Best of all, the villa is bordered by countryside, so you can enjoy the views as you unwind.

The property itself reflects its rustic location, so expect cobbled stone walls, terracotta roof tiles and wooden balconies in terms of exteriors. Inside, you’ll find all the necessities, like air-conditioning and a fully-equipped kitchen. Plus, there are nice-to-haves like a CD and DVD player.

Your guide to Hersonissos, Crete

“If you’re looking for fun with a capital F, rather than Greek with a capital G, cosmopolitan Hersonissos is your perfect holiday hotspot.”

If you’re seeking somewhere you can appreciate the gorgeous Greek climate but want less of a traditional time away, Hersonissos is right up your holiday street. A modern resort overlooking the sapphire-blue seas, it won’t win many stars for authentic Greek atmosphere, but it’s a constant hit with the young crowd, attracted by its superb beach life and buzzing bars, restaurants and discos. And when it comes to kicking back, this town really knows how to do it, with three beaches to choose from. And whichever pocket of pillow-soft sand you decide to stretch out on, all offer great watersports, with some of the best facilities you’ll find anywhere on the island. For more thrills and spills, you also find the Star Beach Water Park here where you can brave the chutes and shoot down the scream-if-you-want-to-go-faster slides. Back in town you can browse the shops for bargain leather goods, while breathing in the fragrant scents of the herb and spice stores, selling produce from the mountains. Then it’s time to get ready for the evening’s activities. The focal point of Hersonissos’ nightlife is the attractive harbour area, teeming with waterside bars and restaurants, where you can enjoy anything from ‘moussaka’ to Mexican. However, if you prefer a more relaxed pace of life, you won’t be completely out of place in Hersonissos. The charming Old Town has quaint narrow streets, lined with friendly tavernas, while the villages of Piskopiano and Koutouloufari are perfect places to sit in a café, enjoy the traditional Cretan atmosphere and take in the magnificent views of the sea. Now all you have to do is sit back and relax.
