Enquire nowThe Crete region
Crete is famous for its weather and no more so than the south east of the island
The nearby town of Ierapatra is the most southerly city in Europe
The history of Crete revolves around the ancient Minoan civilization with numerous sites of antiquity to visit, particularly the Palace of Knossos
The Makrigialos / Bayview Resort area
The Makry-Gialos area is ideally located in the south-east of Crete to enjoy the benefits of both a relaxing beach holiday, and as a base for exploring eastern Crete. It has the best beaches in south-east Crete, including two blue flag beaches, and enjoys the superior North African influenced climate.
Road access is good, allowing day trips that range from Toplou Monastery in the far north-east, the palatial ruins of Minoan Kato Zakros on the east coast, the Venetian fort and subsequent leper colony of Spinalonga to the north-west, and the Lasithi plateau to the west. Even a day trip to Knossos is achievable.
Closer to base, the area is rich with stunning mountain scenery, uncrowded beaches and coves, historical sites, and traditional Cretan culture.
Explore the many traditional Cretan villages that nestle amongst the mountains
Experience the natural beauty of south east Crete on foot down the Pefki, Butterfly, or Pervolakia gorges
Guests at the villa have full access to all the organised water sports, gym and spa facilities at the nearby Mikri Poli Hotel.

We arrived at Bay View reception to meet Anja who took us to the Villa. When we started along the "road" it was a bit of a shock, it was unmade,if we had known this it would have influenced the model of car we would have hired, off roader might have been better. But oh whoa what a Villa; beautiful from the outside and wonderful inside. We were a party of eight adults age range 42yrs to 80yrs, 1 child almost 4yrs and a toddler 15months. We wanted for nothing with regard to equipment and furnishings supplied, perhaps the only one thing that I would change personally would be a proper cot for babies/toddlers instead of a travel cot.The pool was an absolute winner for all. The different outside spaces available was really pleasing, quiet areas, relaxing areas it had it all. We had great barbie too. Pool service was second to none. This Villa guarantees you a fabulous time. Many thanks to Steve and Kay |
