The pool is divided into two levels, allowing our younger guests to have a nice time in a shallow area. Our jacuzzi is placed in that part of the pool, so that our adult guests can enjoy it as well.

Location
The neighbourhood
Villa Olira is located in Alikianos village. Alikianos is a small village located only 12 km from Chania Town. Accessible through the lush green valley of river Keritis, on the way to Alikianos visitors will pass from the wooden bridge of the river that was constructed after the destruction of the Stone Bridge on 2019. Most of the inhabitants of Alikianos deal with agriculture and cattle-breeding. The village consists of modern and traditional stone-built houses. In the middle of the square lie several war monuments dedicated to the men who fought for the country.
Local markets & Shopping
In Alikianos, there are two Supermarkets for those daily essentials, offering local products. There are also 2 bakeries, while we can arrange with the baker to deliver your breakfast directly at your front door.
Every Saturday, in the city of Chania, is a market where you can pick up fresh fruit and vegetables, as well as the local yoghurts and cheese. The old town has a mix of shops ranging from a bootmaker to boutique clothing.
Bars & Restaurants
You'll be spoilt for choice on where to eat in the villages around the Villa. There are several tavernas that sell the local food cooked with traditional Cretan recipes. If you prefer fish, there are some waterfront restaurants that overlook the sea within 10 minutes drive. Or why not put on your dancing shoes and head to one of the many nightclubs or cocktail and music bars of Platanias or Chania city centre?
Beaches
The beach of Platanias is around 10 minutes' drive from the Villa, with clear blue water and soft golden sand. There is also the Blue Flag beach of Agia Marina with plenty of sunbeds and parasols to hire and a selection of beach bars and tavernas, all about 1km away. For a day at the beach, Elafonisi and Faalasarna are ideal destinations! There are white sand and pink hues and turquoise waters that ripple in the breeze. Both beaches are a bit far away, but it definitely worths driving there!
Family fun
For some fun in the sun, especially when the coastline close to the Villa is wavy, Limnoupolis Waterpark offers a great adventure for the whole family! About 10 minutes drive from the Villa, Limnoupolis with its waterslides for the energetic and the lazy river for the more laid-back members of the group can provide with moments of joy all the members of your company.
Places of Interest
The city of Chania is not to be missed! The Venetian Harbour is fringed with restaurants, cafes and bars. This is a great place to rest after a day exploring the maze of alleys in the old town of Chania.
Within 10 minutes' drive, you will also find the Botanical Gardens of Crete that worth a visit. In that garden, you will be amazed by the variety of products which you can walk into through handmade paths. If you decide to have lunch or dinner at the restaurant of the gardens, make sure you ask for their local salad with more than 100 ingredients!
