Fissi Villas

Description

Located in Aghios Nicolaos, Crete, Fissi Villas is one of the few holiday accommodations in the region, operating under a special agritourism licence which shows our investment in a green and sustainable living. Proud to have been awarded with the Green Key eco-label, Fissi Villas complies with a set of high-standard environmental requirements.
Immersed in the natural Cretan surroundings, our Villas combine the stunning uninterrupted sea views to the Mirabello Bay and the unspoiled mountain landscapes with a twist, only 4.5 km away from the city centre of the picturesque Aghios Nicolaos.
Within striking distance (5-10’) from Fissi Villas and with easy access for the public, few of the most famous beaches of the area can be explored.
Standing on a spacious property of 4000m2, our two independent Villas will become the ideal home away from home for the adventurous families. Being equipped with a playground and many outdoor play sets, we intend to keep your young family members safely entertained, while offering everyone a stress-free holiday. We do care for the safety of your belongings too and we provide you with free and secure parking space throughout your stay. Fissi Villas promises to offer full insight to our hiking/trekking enthusiasts and to those guests keen in exploring the Cretan mountain routes, or the birdwatchers and the lovers of the endemic species of flora and fauna and of course to our sea lovers.
The field lying in front of Fissi Villas is covered by organic olive groves and by colourful fruit, vegetable and herb organic gardens.
For several years now we cultivate our olive groves with alternative, organic farming methods and we successfully produce excellent and high-quality organic extra-virgin olive oil which has been awarded by the University of Athens for its high antioxidant content (polyphenols) and its overall health protective properties.
In our unique Mediterranean flower garden, several hundreds of various seasonal flower species are growing, leaving our guests with an intense feeling of pleasure and euphoria.
Being faithful to a sustainable holiday experience, we have introduced in the premises a composter for domestic use to turn our organic waste into natural soil fertilizer for our gardens. This is why we encourage our guests during their stay to sort out their waste and join this collective effort towards a more sustainable living.
An amazing opportunity to explore the seasonal agricultural activities that take place in Fissi Villas during the seasons, opens up. You will collaborate in various activities, like the harvest of olives, fruits, vegetables and herbs. To help you capture the essence of Cretan traditions and cuisine, we offer you a free organic extra virgin olive oil bottle at your arrival, to show you what it means to cook like a local.

We suggest experienced mountain guides , teams organized for hiking, climping and exploring the surrounding areas.
