Started in 1997, a small programme to the island, run by a couple with three daughters.

Where

Crete.

Style

Largely modern Greek but of decent standard. A couple of villas with private pools sleeping up to eight, near a village called Pano Stalos, good for being in total privacy and no other buildings. Also a couple of sets of apartments - Paradisio near Stavros on the Akrotiri with six two-bedroom apartments sleeping four comfortable but able to accommodation an extra small person on the sofa bed. Apartments at Kera near Almirida, a set of one and two-bedroom apartments with the option of taking more than one apartment. Also apartments at Plaka near Almirida - one bedroom with large living-dining area with sofa bed. The only property without a pool is Kera but that has a private beach.

Season

Early April to end October.

Facilities

Cots and high chairs.

Extras

Transfers are by taxi and air conditioned car included in the price of the villas. Each property is supplied with a welcome hamper with Cretan produce and wine.

Sample Price

Paradisio would be £533 per person including direct flights, small car, for a fortnight. With eight sharing the villas for the same period would be £749 per person again with flights and either two smaller or one large MPV vehicle. The price per person for four would be £1,059. Minimum occupancy in the villages during shoulder season has been reduced to three.
