Walking distance to the village of Plaka with 2 taverna's, 2 cafes, a traditional gyros grill and well stocked super market, Almyrida Beach is also close by, 10 minutes walk from the village Square. If you prefer to relax at home, dine al fresco in the balmy summer evenings with a meal cooked on the outdoor BBQ, watch the sunset over the sea and the lights of the Athens ferry sail by with a chilled glass of local krassi wine after a long hard day sunbathing and swimming by the pool.
Villa Nicola has been furnished with many modern appliances; the well equipped kitchen offers a built-in oven and microwave oven, a ceramic hob and a dishwasher. The washing machine is located in one of the bathrooms. The lounge is decorated with tastefully chosen palette of creams, beiges and splashes of crimson, and both lounges have TVs, DVD players and a stereo unit for your entertainment. On the lower floor is a Pool Table. During the cooler evenings in the Winter months cosy up by the swivel, high tech italian log burning fireplace in the ground floor lounge while you enjoy the views above the Bay and landscape.
The pool area, surrounded by lawns and flower beds, provides the perfect area for sunbathing with breathtaking views across to Souda Bay. A refreshing breeze from the sea cools down this hillside area in the hot summer months and makes it even more comfortable to stay and spend the day outside.

The village of Plaka has lovely shady mulberry trees under which the locals sit to watch the world go by whilst enjoying a delicious meal or an ice cold frappe. Plaka was one of the original village sets for the film 'Zorba the Greek' and it still has quaint whitewashed houses and narrow streets leading off from the square.
The lovely village of Almyrida is only 2 km away 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 a selection of tavernas, café/bars, bakeries, a jewellery shop, mini-markets, gift shops and an off-license. Also in Almyrida there is a water sports centre which rents out kayaks, windsurfers and catamarans. For those of you looking for even more activity, the historic town of Chania is only 35 minutes away by car.
