We had a great stay at Villa Agnanti. The villa is about a 30-minute drive from Heraklion airport and contains several units. Since we were there in early May, we had the place to ourselves—including the swimming pool, although it was too cold to make use of it. Instead of swimming, we rented a car and drove to see other places on the island. While there is no food nearby, it’s an easy drive (or a 30-minute walk…downhill) to Agia Pelagia beach where there are restaurants and a small supermarket.

On our initial drive to the apartment, George met us just off the highway to ensure we took the best route to the villa. He also made sure we settled in and provided a bit of breakfast for the next morning. If we’re back in the area, we’d definitely stay there again and hopefully get to use the pool and beaches.
