Why a holiday villa in Municipality of Heraklion

Heraklion is more than just a city, it's an experience waiting to be had. By staying in one of our luxury villas, you'll be immersed in the authentic Greek culture that this vibrant capital has to offer. From the moment you step foot in your villa, you'll feel like you're a part of the community, with its charming streets, bustling markets and rich history just waiting to be explored.

Imagine waking up each morning to the sound of the Aegean Sea gently lapping at the shore, or enjoying a romantic evening dinner on your private patio as the sun sets over the surrounding countryside. Our villas in Heraklion offer the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure, with crystal-clear beaches, historic landmarks and world-class restaurants all just a short drive away. Whether you're looking for a romantic getaway or an action-packed family holiday, our luxury villas have everything you need to make your Greek dreams come true.

When to rent a villa in Municipality of Heraklion

Heraklion, Crete's capital city, boasts a Mediterranean climate with warm summers and mild winters, making it an ideal destination for a villa holiday throughout the year. If you're looking for a beachside relaxation experience, summer (June to September) is the perfect time to visit Heraklion, with temperatures often reaching 28°C (82°F). The sea is at its calmest during this period, and the long days allow for plenty of sunshine and opportunities to enjoy water sports and activities. However, if you prefer a more relaxed pace and lower prices, consider visiting in spring (April to May) or autumn (September to October), when the weather is still warm but the crowds have thinned out.

For those interested in exploring Heraklion's rich history and culture, winter (December to February) might be the perfect time for you. The cooler temperatures range from 12°C to 18°C (54°F to 64°F), making it an ideal time for sightseeing without the summer heat. Many of the city's museums and historical sites are also less crowded during this period, allowing for a more immersive experience. If you're planning to visit Heraklion with children, spring is often considered the best time, as the weather is warm enough for outdoor activities like hiking and exploring, but not so hot that it becomes overwhelming. Regardless of when you choose to go, our villas in Heraklion are always ready to provide a comfortable and relaxing base for your holiday.

Where to go in Municipality of Heraklion

As you explore the villas available in Heraklion, you'll soon realize that this vibrant city has something for everyone. For those seeking a more lively atmosphere, the coastal neighborhoods of Ammoudara and Gazi offer stunning beaches, bustling bars and restaurants, and a vibrant nightlife scene that's sure to keep you entertained until the early hours. On the other hand, if you're looking for a more relaxed pace of life, the nearby villages of Knossos and Hersonissos provide a peaceful retreat with quiet walks through picturesque countryside, historic landmarks, and world-class restaurants serving up delicious local cuisine.

But Heraklion's best-kept secret is its lesser-known neighborhoods, such as the charming old town and the scenic waterfront promenade. These hidden gems offer a unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty that's perfect for couples and families looking for a more laid-back experience. With our villas in these areas, you can enjoy the best of both worlds: the tranquility of a peaceful getaway combined with easy access to the city's attractions and activities. Whether you're seeking adventure or relaxation, Heraklion has something special waiting just around the corner.
