A marvelous view to the sea extends from the house and the whole property. We can see the islands of Paximadi, the villages of Agia Galini and Matala and the surrounding hills of very old olive trees. The architectural design of the house is inspired from the Cretan construction style of the post Minoan period. The house complex is formed by two different buildings: the main house “Spiti” and the secondary house “Paraspito”. The Paraspito is our guest house. On the first floor there is a large bedroom, a bathroom with WC, a kitchenette, a dining room and a large balcony. At the ground floor are the swimming pool’s WC and a covered area, cool and shady used as an eating place. Conforming to the style of the post Minoan period the house complex is surrounded by a wall. Cretans used such walls as a defense against pirates that often visited the south part of Crete. Our wall is the swimming pool’s wall! From the guesthouse’s balcony we can directly dive at the deepest part of the swimming pool, which is a 14x7 meters overflow type. Looking out from the living room of the main house you see the blue water of the swimming pool becoming one with the blue sea. The village of Agia Galini, situated at the feet of the house, is one of the most beautiful in Crete. Please enter the site: www.agia-galini.com to learn more about its history and mythology. As you can also see on the map of Crete, close to the village of Agia Galini there are: The city of Timbaki -16 km, The city of Spili - 25 km. Also the capital of the province The city of Rethymnon - 55 km The city of Iraklion - 75 Km The city of Chania - 95 Km At a range of 7 km from Agia Galini, there are various villages. Some have beautiful sand beaches and some are perched on the mountains. At a distance of 20 km there is the village of Matala which during the sixties became the center of the international hippy movement. The caves on the hill where hippies lived are visited today by the tourists. At the same distance there is the ancient (Minoan) city of Festos. It is the second most important archeological site after Knossos which is at a distance of 80 km. On the north of Agia Galini and at a distance of aprox. 35 km is mount Psiloritis, the highest mountain of Crete. It reaches 2600 m and has many sites of interest. In close proximity you will find a lot of Byzantine monasteries and many other interesting spots that can be seen on the site of Crete island. The property’s main entrance is a heavy metallic rolling gate flanked by beautiful bougainvillea. As you enter you find two stone covered alleys. One goes to the entrance of the court under the guest house and one goes to the garage. As we open the garage’s wooden rolling door we enter an area of 200 m2\. Here is also stored a small boat with a 25hp Mercury hors board engine. It is at your disposal for fishing or fun. The left part of the garage houses the pool room and its equipment. We go up through a slated stair and arrive to the swimming pool patio, an area covered with Cretan flat ceramic colored stones and a grass court. At our left is a 100 m2 swimming pool, in front of us is the guest house and at our right the main house. We enter the main house by a wooden door under an arched area where we take our breakfast at summer. We walk in the living room on iroco wooden floor. All floors of the house (salon, dining room, corridors, internal stair and bedrooms) have wooden iroco with the exception of the bathrooms and the kitchen. At our right side there is the dining room adjoining a fully equipped kitchen and a WC. The wooden staircase takes us to the first floor. Here are four large bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and WC. Each bedroom has its own large balcony with a beautiful view to the sea. From the balcony of the master bedroom we can go down to the court through an external slated stair. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the villa: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Kitchenette - Microwave - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 5.5 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Stereo - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 4,090 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/23000000/22800000/22798200/22798171/fcb7483f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Palazzo Greco Villas Agios Vasileios - Pool - Spa - Pet-friendly - Parking included 9.6 Exceptional 39 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-12&endDate=2026-03-13&selected=22798171&PinnedHotelID=22798171&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100190000/100187200/100187150/c39f9ac0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Blue Hills Villas by Estia Malevizi - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Parking included 10 Exceptional 4 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-12&endDate=2026-03-13&selected=100187150&PinnedHotelID=100187150&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Courtyard](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/19000000/18120000/18119900/18119850/d727006d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Villa Daskalogianni Heraklion - Pool - Pet-friendly - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi 9.8 Exceptional 10 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-12&endDate=2026-03-13&selected=18119850&PinnedHotelID=18119850&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/24000000/23280000/23270400/23270320/2a926d16.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Promachon Agricultural Villa Heraklion - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer 10 Exceptional 5 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-12&endDate=2026-03-13&selected=23270320&PinnedHotelID=23270320&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/110000000/109997700/109997665/fc67ee2f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beautiful natural stone vacation home in the south of Crete (Kamilari) - sea view!

In the 1960s, the by-then empty caves hosted hippies who used them to camp out in. Matala still has a slight counter-culture feel to it.](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6051676/2227fa72-020a-4bb7-bb78-e0871f474345.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=115.61&rh=65.03&ra=fit&q=high) Beach of Matala 42 min drive \- 17.9 miles - Agios Georgios 10 min drive \- 3.1 miles - Prasonísi 27 min drive \- 8.3 miles - Palace of Phaistos 29 min drive \- 12.1 miles - Komos Beach 37 min drive \- 14.6 miles ### Restaurants - 7ven Cafe 13 min drive - Taverna Romantika 10 min walk - Kostas Tavern 7 min walk - Balloon Lounge bar 1 min walk - Ψητοπωλείο "Chicken Τυμπακίου 19 min drive ## Frequently asked questions ### Does ISLAND VILLA sleeps 10 people have a pool? ### Is ISLAND VILLA sleeps 10 people pet-friendly? ### How much is parking at ISLAND VILLA sleeps 10 people? ### What time is check-in at ISLAND VILLA sleeps 10 people? ### What time is check-out at ISLAND VILLA sleeps 10 people? ### Where is ISLAND VILLA sleeps 10 people located? ## Have a question?

Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sebastian S., Cologne 16 Sept 2018 #### Traumhaftes Feriendomizil Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt und können es jedem weiterempfehlen. Dies ist ein geräumiges Ferienhaus mit guter Ausstattung, einem großem Pool und einem super Ausblick. Badezimmer gibt es pro Schlafzimmer und sind bis auf einen gewissen Geruch vom Ablauf vollkommen in Ordnung. Der Anreiseweg ist allerdings nicht für jedes Auto geeignet und macht die An- und Abreise immer etwas abenteuerlich (sehr steil und nicht immer befestigt). Der Besitzer ist sehr nett, hilfsbereit und ist bei Fragen oder Problemen jederzeit ansprechbar (z.B. via Whatsapp). ##### Sebastian S.
