Renovated at the beginning of 2019, and situated at the east of Kokkino Chorio, 5 minutes from Kokkino’s small bay and 10 minute drive from Almerida beach, our goal is to fulfill all your wishes and try to give you a passionate yet relaxing time, enjoying the fruits of the Island as much as you like.
Joining our family means that while you are our guest, you are trouble free and we will do whatever is needed to make this a perfect vacation.
If it is the heated pool, the hot tub or the daily cleaning that we offer, we will make sure that if it is possible and you want it – you will have it. Scuba diving, special trips or just a massage in the middle of the day. If we don’t have it, we will look for it.
The estate has 2 Villas: the main Villa with 4 bedrooms & en-suite bathrooms and side by side to it, our intimate villa with another bedroom and loft.
We can host 12 guests and if you want more, we can have up to 16 guest and open 2 comfortable sofa beds in the living room. If you really want to squeeze in, we offer 2 more single beds that can be opened which will sum up to 18 guests.
We give special attention to handicap guests and both villas are wheelchair accessible.
In the main villa we have a special room with extra space and special bathroom with all necessary equipment to ease the motion and use. Both the pool and the hot tub have paved roads for wheelchair access and the hole estate is designed so it is possible to move around easily.
The kitchen is fully equipped and you can create your own meals or have a fine cooked local Creten meal in your kitchen by a local cook. You can also invite your friends to a special chef dinner at the villa.
Free Villa Chania is ideally positioned in a traditional little village, Modi, in a breathtaking natural environment, surrounded by lavish greenery, close to the tourist resort of Platanias in the graphic city of Chania, the most beautiful town of Crete. The unique hospitality of Crete and the charm of Chania, will truly amaze every guest. We expect you to visit us and experience this!

About the area
Almyrida, located on the northwest coast of Crete, Greece, is a serene seaside village that beckons travelers with its picturesque charm and tranquil atmosphere. This coastal haven is ideal for those seeking a blend of relaxation, natural beauty, and traditional Cretan culture.
The village's main attraction is its stunning beach, a crescent of fine sand and clear, shallow waters that make it perfect for swimming and sunbathing. The Blue Flag-awarded beach is well-organized, offering sun loungers, umbrellas, and a variety of water sports, including windsurfing, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding. Families particularly appreciate the safe environment for children to play and swim.
Almyrida's seaside promenade is lined with a selection of tavernas and cafes where visitors can indulge in fresh seafood and local Cretan dishes while enjoying the view of the Mediterranean Sea. The village's culinary offerings are a testament to the rich gastronomic heritage of the region, with olive oil, cheeses, and wines that are sure to delight any palate.
For those interested in history and archaeology, Almyrida does not disappoint. The surrounding area is dotted with ancient sites, including the ruins of Aptera, an important city-state of the Minoan and Roman eras. Visitors can explore the remnants of temples, Roman cisterns, and an ancient theater, all while taking in panoramic views of the surrounding landscape.
Nature enthusiasts will find plenty to explore beyond the beach. The region's rugged terrain is crisscrossed with trails that lead through olive groves, citrus orchards, and wildflower-strewn hillsides. Hiking or cycling in the area provides an excellent opportunity to experience the natural beauty of Crete up close.
Almyrida is also an excellent base for day trips to other attractions on Crete. The bustling city of Chania, with its Venetian harbor, historic old town, and vibrant markets, is just a short drive away. The awe-inspiring Samaria Gorge, a World Biosphere Reserve, offers a challenging yet rewarding trek through one of Europe's longest canyons.
In essence, Almyrida is a destination that offers a peaceful retreat with the comforts of modern amenities, set against a backdrop of timeless natural beauty and cultural richness. It's a place where one can unwind on the beach, savor the flavors of Crete, and immerse oneself in the island's storied past, all within the cozy embrace of a friendly village atmosphere.
