During this recovery period we are constantly striving to provide a safe and welcoming environment for both our visitors and our employees, and now, more than ever, we use safety and hygienic measures to guarantee the well-being of our guests.
Learn what we do to provide a safe stay for our guestsWhite Luxury Villa is in Anissaras, an area close to the popular resort of Hersonissos in Heraklion, Crete, which forms part of the unique stretch of Cretan coastline extending from Kokkini Hani to Malia. When booking your stay at White Luxury Villa, we offer free VIP transfer from/to Heraklion International Airport (18km), so you can relax and rest assured you will arrive at your star destination in safety and style.
The area around White Luxury Villa offers a wide choice of restaurants, bars, bakeries, pharmacies, supermarkets, and gas stations, all within easy reach about 1-4km from the property. There are two medical care centers less than a 10-minute drive from the villa (4km), as well as two large national hospitals within easy reach (Venizelio Hospital at 25.9km and General University Hospital of Heraklion at 32km). In addition to the amazing swimming pool at the premises, guests have easy access to a number of stunning nearby beaches with crystal clear waters, and all the amenities anyone could wish for to enjoy a day by the seaside. The closest beach to the villa is just 800m from the property, with many more to choose from in close proximity. If you are traveling with younger children—or feel adventurous yourself!—there are various water parks, golf courses, tennis courts, and even an aquarium, all within 4-15km from the property.
When not enjoying the luxury and privacy of the villa, guests have a prime opportunity to sample the lively, cosmopolitan atmosphere of Hersonissos and all that it has to offer, situated only about 1km away. Hersonissos is one of the most popular summer resorts in Crete, renowned for its nightlife, as well as the extensive range of wining and dining opportunities. For more laid back outings, there are also many traditional villages to visit, such as Ano Hersonissos (3.5km), Koutouloufari (5.2km), and Piskopiano (5km), located on the hilltop above Hersonissos, where one can enjoy a coffee, meal, or drink in the charming village squares and local tavernas, with many options for purchases in local arts-and-crafts shops. If you wish to visit another gem of the Cretan seascape, the coastal town of Agios Nikolaos is another place well worth visiting. Sitting to the east of the island's capital Heraklion, it offers one of the most scenic harbors on the island—especially during sunset—as well as numerous sandy beaches, bars, and restaurants.
For those with an interest in Cretan folk culture and ancient civilizations, White Luxury Villa is the perfect base for exploring the best that Crete has to offer in these terms. Two out of many wonderful suggestions for outings are the Lychnostatis Open Air Museum, situated just outside Hersonissos on the way to Stalis (6km), and the Folklore Museum of Gouves (6.8km). The archaeological site of Malia (21km) with the third-largest Minoan palace in Crete is also very well worth a visit, while the famous ancient Palace of Knossos is within reach (27km) as well.
