How to reach Chania
There are two ways to reach Chania: either by flight or by ferry.
By plane: Chania Airport (CHQ) is only a 20 minutes ride away from central Chania. During the summer months, frequents overseas and domestic flights are performed. In most of the cases, there are available buses that connect Chania city and most of the villas. You can also hire a car from one of the many rental companies at the airport, or alternatively get a taxi to bring you right to your doorstep.
By ferry: If you choose to do an island-hopping trip and use the ferry as a method of transportation, then the closest port is in Souda, only 8km from the centre of Chania. Only ferries from Piraeus in Athens or Heraklion in Crete. Heraklion port has a wider choice: you can also take a ferry from other Greek islands like Santorini, Mykonos or Paros, but you will have to take a longer bus ride to reach your villa. You can easily book your ferry tickets using the link below or the booking engine.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesVilla Abea, tucked away in the serene enclave of Xirokambi, emerges as an idyllic haven for families with children, offering a perfect blend of child-friendly features and an inviting location. The villa's thoughtful design extends a warm welcome to little ones, with a separate kids' pool boasting a gentle depth of 0.80m and convenient step access. The inclusion of twin beds in one of the bedrooms ensures comfortable accommodation for siblings, while the provision of a cot and highchair caters to the needs of the youngest family members.
Indoors, the villa's modern amenities, including WiFi and a TV, promise entertainment and connectivity for children during downtime. The airy open-plan living space invites play and relaxation, creating a harmonious atmosphere for family bonding.
Beyond the villa's bounds, the region holds a treasure trove of family-friendly attractions. Maleme Beach, a mere 4.3 km away, beckons with its tranquil charm. Although it comprises mainly pebbles, this 3 km stretch of beach is part of the vast Bay of Chania, offering a quieter alternative to the more bustling Chania beaches. The long and quiet nature of Maleme Beach, favoured by local residents, ensures a peaceful environment for families to unwind and play.
The beach's family-friendly facilities, such as sunbeds and umbrellas, provide comfort for parents, and the easy parking along the beach simplifies logistics for families with young children. While the beach may not be ideal for swimming when waves are present, its general lack of strong currents and quick drop in water depth makes it suitable for children to paddle safely.
In essence, Villa Aglaea's child-centric amenities and the family-friendly allure of Maleme Beach make it an ideal haven for families seeking both comfort and adventure. The villa serves as a delightful retreat, offering the perfect balance between relaxation within its walls and exploration of the charming, kid-friendly attractions that surround it.
