About this property
Villa in Crete with Private Pool & Views
Idyllic Setting & Unmatched Views
Perched atop a gently rolling hill on a sprawling estate of 50–60 acres west of Mount Zeus, Villa Stella is enveloped by vineyards, olive groves, fruit trees, and aromatic herbs and flowers. Overlooking the scenic Ayios Sillas Plain and Southwest Knossos, this serene and beautiful hideaway is just a 15-minute drive from the heart of Heraklion.
Blend of Luxury and Nature
Here, relaxation is a delight. Enjoy luxury nestled in wild landscapes, with terraces shaded by vines and fruit trees and surrounded by vibrant flower gardens—all offering sweeping mountain and sea views. The private mountain-side pool sits among fragrant trees and seating areas—an ideal spot for breakfast or dinner. Villa Stella’s central location makes it easy to explore the east, west, and south of Crete with ease.
Home-Grown Delights & Leisure
Enhance your stay by indulging in the villa’s homemade products—olive oil, fresh honey, eggs, vegetables, fruit, and even ice cream, straight from the estate’s own shop. Wander the expansive grounds at leisure, or enjoy a friendly match at your very own tennis court. Villa Stella is truly a nature-rich luxury retreat in Crete’s tranquil countryside.
