Lagoon type beaches & boat trips

There is so much to enjoy on the island of Crete. From beaches to boat trips, restaurants to historical sites and more. One family who stayed at Villa Petrino Dream had this to say:

"We had a great stay at villa Petrino. It is well equipped and everything works. The places we recommend to visit are:

Elafonisi a lagoon type beach the caribbean of Crete. You need to take your own food and drink and get there early if you want to hire parasols etc. Boat trip from Kissamos to Gramvousa. More lovely views and fort on the top of a hill Beach at Georgioupli is worth a visit Knosses Palace is crowded in the mornings but is open to 19.30 so could go later in day.

Chania Market on a Saturday morning is well worth a visit, it is very interesting and a great opportunity for souvenir shopping. Chania is very beautiful with a great harbour"

Welcome To Villa Petrino Dream

Hi I'm Joan and one of the owners of the super Villa Petrino Dream on the wonderful holiday island of Crete.

Our website: http://www.crete-holiday-villa.com/ gives all the information you might need to help you decide on a holiday - from the furnishings of the rooms to the aspects of the terraces to the stunning, new swimming pool that is exclusively ours to lots of information about local beaches and restaurants, how to find us - and lots more!

I will be writing in the Villa Petrino Dream Blog from time to time with ideas and suggestions for anyone considering a holiday in Crete and also sharing experiences of my own with you (I go there often!). I'll even be publishing extracts from our visitors' book and lots more besides. Occasionally, my husband Len as well as our son Mike and his wife Diane who are also co-owners of the villa, will contribute their own ideas. So please bookmark the Blog and return to see our latest postings.
