Home description
Villa Helios is only 4 minutes walk from the sandy beaches, shops, and tavernas in Almyrida, set above a small, quiet access road on the top of a cliff with a few neighbouring villas. “Helios” means “Sun” in Greek, and this villa definitely lives up to its name.
Completed in December 2007, this very spacious villa has been beautifully designed to incorporate the highest building standards with luxurious modern comforts and facilities. The villa easily stays cool during Crete’s long, hot summers thanks to thick walls, high vaulted white wood ceilings, tilt and turn windows which take advantage of the sea breezes.
Another clever design feature is that none of the bedrooms share adjoining walls which gives total peace and privacy to each guest.

The Crete region
The heart of the village of Almyrida is only 300m from Villa Helios, and is built around a pretty crescent shaped sandy beach, with a small fishing harbour at the eastern end. The beach is very shallow and safe, which is good news if you have children or are not a strong swimmer.
Lining the beach are 4 excellent tavernas, 9 café/bars, 2 bakeries, a wonderful jewellery shop, 5 mini-markets, 3 gift shops, 1 clothes shop, and an off-license. Also in Almyrida there is a water sports centre which rents out kayaks, windsurfers and catamarans.
Almerida area
A few minutes by car from Villa Helios, there are a huge variety of archaeological sites and traditional villages with wonderful tavernas. There is also an interesting selection of small craft centres and museums, including glass blowing in Kokkino Horio, lace makers in Gavalohori, and silk makers in Kalamitsi.
For those of you looking for even more activity, the historic town of Chania is only 35 minutes away by car.
