Enjoying a spectacular beachfront location close to iconic Balos Bay, Villa Ammos is a dream come true for anyone seeking a little barefoot luxury in Western Crete. With nothing between infinity pool and the warm waters of the Aegean, plus a concierge service to add the finishing touches, this is a place suited to pure relaxation. Yet the surrounding area has much to offer too, from the unpretentious tavernas lining the waterfront in nearby Kissamos to the unearthly beauty of a west coast sunset at Falasarna.
This spacious seafront villa makes a blissfully indulgent choice for couples or offers a magical setting for a family of four. It can also be connected to neighbouring Villa Votsalo to create an excellent base for multi-generational groups of up to 16, though the thoughtful layout ensures that privacy isn’t compromised when the two are booked independently.
Designed and expertly managed by the owner of The Kissamos Estate the attention to detail cannot be overstated, with cutting edge design complemented by the use of natural materials, lovingly-crafted to create harmonious interiors and effortlessly chic exteriors in a blissful beachfront setting. Whether you are dining under the shade of the pergola, stretching out by the infinity pool, or drifting off to sleep in one of the elegant en-suite bedrooms, the ebb and flow of the sea offers a relaxing soundscape to daily life and there is nothing nicer than the short stroll across the boardwalk for a refreshing dip or a spot of snorkelling.
Cretan hospitality attracts foodies from all over the world and Villa Ammos is well-placed to make the most of it. A charming seafood restaurant just 100 yards from the villa serves the catch of the day while slightly further afield, Gramvousa offers a feast for the senses with its own magnificent vegetable garden available for inspection just yards from the front door. And if you fancy trying your hand at some of the local dishes yourself, why not order an Organic Vegetable Box to be delivered to your villa? Your concierge will be very happy to help with this and other arrangements, including a meal delivery service, massage therapies, outings and local recommendations.

Villa Ammos was immaculate, had everything we needed, and the position right on the beach was fabulous. It's great to have the sea on your doorstep! There is a seafood taverna 100 yards away that was excellent, and lovely just to be able to stroll next door . The outside space, the terrace, was beautiful , with really comfortable sunbeds , a table for eating and another for relaxing. Eleni and Vassiles, the villa concierge and owner respectively, are charming and so helpful, couldn't do enough for us, and the same for Thanasis the Simpson concierge, who arranged pre arrival food for us and booked restaurants.
Lovely villa in beautiful setting close to delicious seafood taverna with very welcoming and friendly staff who treated us royally! Lovely pool but the highlight of our visit was swimming in the sea especially as our visit was during the Greek heatwave!
An excellent villa with the pool just 100 yards from the sea, with a wonderful seafood taverna 200 yards away - what more can one want! Excellent professional service from Simpson Travel yet again which made this holiday so relaxing.
Our choice of Greek properties is as diverse as the islands themselves, ranging from simple seaside charm to genuine luxury and style. Much of our portfolio is privately owned, and price alone is therefore not a universal guide. We contract all our accommodation in person, and each property has its individual appeal. To help you make the right choice based on your own priorities, we have devised a simple grading guide to be considered in conjunction with each individual property description, awarding up to a maximum of five stars for the below categories.
* For further clarification on Facilities and Amenities, please view the 'Details' tab for each property or speak to one of our experienced sales consultants.
The soaring White Mountains, known in Greek as the Lefka Ori, are at the heart of West Crete’s dramatically beautiful landscape and the villages in their foothills offer traditional Cretan fare in glorious abundance – that’s if Chania’s twinkling harbour lights and waterfront dining don’t entice you first. Spring brings an abundance of flowers, turning hiking trails and gorges into welcome destinations for walkers, and in summer, the many beaches offer sun worshippers a choice of scenic locations to spread their towels.
