Elounda Estate

The villa

Set on a peaceful hillside surrounded by mature olive trees and landscaped gardens, Elounda Estate combines Villa Elounda and Villa Elounda Megali to provide spacious accommodation for up to 33 guests. Despite its tranquil setting, the estate is just a short drive from the restaurants, cafés, shops, and waterfront of Elounda, while the lively town of Agios Nikolaos is also within easy reach.

Both contemporary villas have been thoughtfully designed with modern interiors, natural materials, and neutral tones, creating bright, comfortable spaces for larger groups. Across the estate, there are 16 en - suite bedrooms, generous open - plan living and dining areas, and two fully equipped kitchens, making it well suited to extended families, groups of friends, or special celebrations.

Each villa enjoys its own private swimming pool with panoramic views, spacious terraces, and outdoor dining areas for relaxing and enjoying meals together. Pathways weave through the gardens between the villas, leading to shaded seating areas and hammocks beneath the olive trees, providing peaceful spots to unwind. Guests also have access to a shared multi - purpose sports court, offering tennis, pickleball, volleyball, and half - court basketball on a cushioned all - weather surface, while a gym and table tennis provide additional leisure facilities. Together, the estate offers plenty of indoor and outdoor space in a peaceful setting close to the attractions of northeast Crete.

Elounda Estate holds a fantastic location just a short distance from the popular town of Elounda. Just a little further along the coastline is the resort of Agios Nikolaos which offers visitors a wider selection of amenities including restaurants, shops, bars and nightlife. The closest airport is Heraklion, it is situated around a forty - five minute car journey away from the property.

Agios Nikolaos is a charming coastal town located on the northeast coast of Crete, Greece. Known for its laid - back atmosphere and picturesque setting, it overlooks the Gulf of Mirabello and wraps around the tranquil waters of Lake Voulismeni, a natural lagoon steeped in local mythology.

The town blends traditional Greek character with a cosmopolitan edge, offering boutique shops, lively waterfront tavernas, and a thriving café culture. Agios Nikolaos is also well - positioned as a gateway to explore eastern Crete, with easy access to nearby beaches, archaeological sites, and mountain villages. Despite its popularity, it retains an authentic feel that appeals to both international visitors and discerning travellers seeking a more refined yet relaxed holiday experience.
