Istron holiday rental villa with pool - Nimfes Villas in Crete, Greek Islands

Built on a hillside overlooking the idyllic beach of Aghios Panteleymonas which is just 100m away, on the north eastern coast of Crete, and just 100m from the most famous gold sand beach of Voulisma are the Nimfes Villas: Melia, Kallisto, and Akali. The villas are built according to a very high standard. All villas have a significant sea view. Each is 10 metres above or below the other to preserve some privacy and better sea views. You are in the middle of a village here, so your peripheral views include rooftops and other houses nearby. The villas are generally peaceful, though the sound of other people and their pets is never far away (village life!). The guests staying at the Nimfes villas can either enjoy complete privacy and independence or can make use the facilities of the traditional taverns and cafes of Istron village.

Views:Uninterrupted view to the bay of Aghios Panteleymonas.

Floor Area:105 sq m

There are several shops and reasonable tavernas & cafes in Istron. A big plus: the village's two sandy beaches, an enjoyable place to swim from. Numerous walking opportunities both near the coast or up in the hills and mountains. For a change perhaps, a meal at the gastronomically led Istron Bay hotel with its fine beach (800 m away). 25 minutes by car or bus takes you to Agios Nikolaos town, where numerous shops, cafes, restaurants, harbour-side strolls, clubs and other attractions are readily on offer.
