The Concept: Days by the Beach

Set literally a few steps over the sandy stretch of Almyros Beach on Crete, villa Myrto is a stunning property near the town of Agios Nikolaos, where 7 friends or family members can relax, enjoy the sun, and escape the daily routine this summer. Combining artfully the peace and serenity of the Cretan countryside with the vibrant lifestyle of Agios Nikolaos Town which is a mere 5-minute drive away, Myrto is the perfect sanctuary from which to explore the magic of the island. Pack your bags and get ready for the luxury seaside experience of a lifetime!

Outdoors

Surrounded by a manicured garden with flowers and trees, Myrto’s stone terrace is equipped with all the essentials for laid-back outdoor living. Right in front of the main house stands the gleaming swimming pool with unobstructed views of the beach and the town of Agios Nikolaos; enjoy relaxing moments on your sunbed, rejuvenate with a plunge in the pool, or take the stone path of the villa that leads directly to the beach and get your suntan there.

Indoors

Cozy and contemporary, the villa spreads over 2 floors, featuring every luxury amenity to make you feel at home: 3 comfortable bedrooms, a pool-view living area and a fully equipped kitchen for homemade meals. The property also offers an independent single-space studio apartment, which can host 2 more guests in total privacy featuring an ensuite double bedroom, a living area, and a workspace. And if all this wasn’t enough, there is also a fitness area with gym equipment for your daily workout. Ready for an unforgettable summer?

Good to know

Almyros Beach, which is just a few steps away from Myrto, is a beautiful sandy stretch at the mouth of the namesake river that flows all year round, forming a unique wetland with eucalyptus, palm trees, and rare aquatic birds. Here you will find beach bars with umbrellas and sunbeds, water sports facilities, and even a lifeguard. After the beach, drive 5 minutes to the town of Agios Nikolaos, which will steal your heart with its breathtaking lagoon, Lake Voulismeni, and the cafes and restaurants surrounding it. The lake is the perfect place to promenade before you choose a local tavern to enjoy dinner with the best view. Don’t forget to order “kleftiko”, a Cretan specialty with either lamb or goat cooked for hours in the oven. It will literally melt in your mouth.
