Crete villa holiday guide

Crete is the largest of the Greek islands, and it really ticks all the boxes when it comes to a villa holiday. Its people have a reputation for being tough and proud, yet they are are famous for their hospitality and their loyalty to family and friends, so expect a warm welcome the moment you step off the plane. The islands southernmost location means that it’s also the warmest, so a villa with a pool is essential for cooling off in the glorious Greek sunshine. Crete holidays take you to bucket-list beaches like Vai or Elafonissi that are a match for any in Europe, and some of the most photogenic scenery in the Mediterranean.  

Average Weather in Weather Chart

As the warmest of the Greek islands, a villa holiday in Crete can be enjoyed as early as March for an Easter break, filled with spring flowers. Peak season begins in July when you can expect warm sea water for swimming; the perfect time of year for a beach villa holiday. Shoulder season is also a great time to visit if you’re not tied to travelling in the school holidays. Speak to a villa specialist for further information; we can also book your flights.
