Inside, an open-plan layout features a spacious lounge with a large L-shaped sofa and floor-to-ceiling patio doors that flood the interiors with natural light. A sleek Siemens kitchen and elegant dining area sit beneath a striking vaulted ceiling, creating a bright and welcoming hub for the whole group.

Villa Armenoi is a luxurious villa located in the heart of Crete, offering stunning views of Souda Bay and the sea. Situated just 1km from the village of Tsivaras, near Chania, the villa provides a tranquil retreat in the midst of nature. The nearby beaches and bars of Kera, Almyrida, and Kalives, just a 6-minute drive away, offer a chance to relax and enjoy the north coast of Crete. A scenic drive through winding country roads and olive groves takes you to the traditional coffee houses of Douliana.
Chania, located 25km away, is the capital of Crete and known for its authentic culture and historic architecture, including the beautiful Venetian Harbour. The town boasts well-preserved medieval buildings, museums, churches, narrow shopping streets, waterfront restaurants, and crafts shops. Chania is also an excellent place to try local cuisine, wine, and traditional feasts. For history enthusiasts, there are several museums, as well as historical sites like the Samaria Gorge, Venizelos Graves, and the architectural complex of Tabakaria.
The villa is close to both larger, more popular beaches to the north and more secluded, traditional beaches to the south. Small seaside villages and deserted coves are also nearby for those seeking privacy. For a memorable day trip, the west coast beaches, such as Falasarna, are around 70km away, while the crystal-clear waters of the South Coast, including Sougia, are approximately 80km from the villa.
Villa Armenoi offers a perfect base for exploring Crete, combining natural beauty, history, and culture with easy access to some of the island's best beaches and attractions.

We had a lovely holiday at Villa Armenoi. The Villa is located in a peaceful rural location with a fabulous 360 view. The villa itself is bright and contemporary with large grounds and plenty of outside spaces to choose from. Ian and Annie went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed and we would definitely recommend this villa.

From the roof terrace to the hidden patios tucked away..this villa really is perfection on every level. The villa reeks of luxury and all items are of top quality. Comfortable interiors with fresh and clean linen, beautifully equipped kitchen (with sharp knives!) this place is a real gem, to the point that we didn’t want to write this review because we would like to keep Villa Armenoi to ourselves as a hidden secret. Ian and Annie were superb hosts and couldn’t do enough to make our stay wonderful.
