Villa Maroliva

The Villa is set up on a hill with gorgeous views over Loutraki and Marathi Bay where you can haze at the sunrise or just gaze out to the sea. They are surrounded by centuries old olive trees which they still blossom, from which we produce extra virgin olive oil available for our guests. The villa has its own swimming pool overlooking the sea, an amazing deck and a herb garden free to use by the chef of the family. You can visit the picturesque, traditional villages close to Akrotiri, amongst them is  Stavros, where the popular movie “Zorbas” was filmed in the 60s.  It is also worth visiting some old and historic monasteries: the Monastery of Agia Triada (Trinity) built in 17th century,  the Monastery of Gouverneto of 16th century, the Monastery of Agios Ioannis (Saint John) of 7th century, which is the oldest in Crete.
