Holiday home for max. 6 persons
Almyrida, Crete, (Apokoronas peninsula), Greece

This exclusive traditional-style, three-bedroom villa enjoys a large private heated pool with spectacular views towards Aegean Sea and panoramic views of the White Mountains. The Villa is the ideal place for relaxing family holidays under the Cretan sun.
