Beachfront Villa Sando 3 Crete - 90m² Luxury Villa with Private Pool and Stunning Views - On the Beach & Near Palaiochora

Prime Location

The villa is located on the peaceful Grammeno Peninsula, one of the most beautiful and unspoiled coastal areas in southwest Crete. The neighbourhood is known for its crystal-clear waters, soft sandy beaches, and rare cedar forest that reaches almost to the sea.

Grammeno feels wonderfully relaxed and uncrowded - even in summer. Instead of large resorts, you’ll find small villas, family-run accommodations, and quiet beachfront tavernas. It’s the perfect setting for guests seeking:

- Morning swims just steps from home

- Scenic coastal walks at sunset

- A calm, nature-filled atmosphere

- Safe, shallow waters ideal for families


The area remains authentic and low-key, offering a true escape from busy tourist centres.

 


Palaiochora – A Charming Seaside Town (5 km Away)

Just a short 5-minute drive (or scenic bike ride) from the villa, Palaiochora is a vibrant yet laid-back coastal town on the Libyan Sea. Often described as Crete’s “hippie town,” it blends bohemian charm with traditional Cretan hospitality.


Here you’ll find:

- A wide choice of seaside tavernas and cafés

- Local bakeries, supermarkets, and boutiques

- Beach bars along Pachia Ammos

- A picturesque harbour with boat excursions

- Evening pedestrian streets full of life in summer


Despite its popularity, Palaiochora has preserved its authentic character. It’s lively without feeling crowded - the ideal balance between activity and relaxation.

 

 

Natural Beauty All Around

The villa sits between sea and mountains, with the dramatic peaks of the Lefka Ori (White Mountains) rising in the distance. The region is perfect for:

- Hiking scenic gorges

- Exploring hidden coves

- Snorkelling in clear waters

- Day trips by boat to Gavdos, Europe’s southernmost island

- Day trips by boat to Sougia, Agia Roumeli, Loutro and Chora Sfakion


This part of Crete is less commercial than the north coast, offering a more authentic and nature-focused experience.

 

 


Accessibility & Wider Area

The area is about a 1 hour scenic drive from Chania, making it remote enough to feel special - yet accessible for arrivals and day trips. The journey itself is part of the experience, winding through mountains, olive groves, and traditional villages.

 

 

Why Guests Love This Location

Guests consistently choose this neighbourhood for:

- Its peaceful beachfront setting

- Proximity to town without being in the centre

- Safe and swimmable beaches

- Stunning sunsets over the Libyan Sea

- A genuine, slower pace of life


In short, this is south Crete at its best - natural, authentic, and beautifully relaxed.

 

 

Local Dining & Culture

- Tavernas & Cafés – Fresh seafood, local cheeses, and Cretan olive oil dishes

- Wine & Spirits – Taste local wines & raki at family-run spots

The villa is right by Grammeno Beach, a beautiful stretch of sand and pebbles where you can stroll, swim, or enjoy a beachside café within minutes.

From the villa, it’s an enjoyable walk or bike ride along the scenic coastal road to Pachia Ammos and other nearby coves such as Plakaki and Psilos Volakas.

 


Public Transport

During the warmer months, local KTEL buses run regularly between Palaiochora and Grammeno, making stops just a few minutes’ ride from the villa - an easy and affordable option if you’re exploring without a car.

Buses also connect Palaiochora with Chania and other parts of Crete, so you can enjoy day trips along the coast.

 


Car & Taxi

Renting a car is one of the most convenient ways to see more of the southwest coast of Crete at your own pace - ideal for visiting beaches, tavernas and hidden coves.

Taxis are easily arranged in town and provide quick transfers between Grammeno, the centre of Palaiochora (5 km), and beyond if needed.

 

By Sea

From Palaiochora harbour, daily boat excursions depart to nearby coastal highlights like Sougia, Agia Roumeli, Loutro, Sfakia and the island of Gavdos - perfect for a change of scenery and a memorable day trip on the Libyan Sea.

 


Local Tips

Scooters and bikes are available to rent in Palaiochora and offer a fun way to discover nearby beaches and coves.

Many guests enjoy combining walking or cycling with short taxi rides - especially around sunset when the light is beautiful along the coast.

Amazing villa and location!

The villa was extremely clean with much attention given to details. From the minute we walked in we felt at home and very peaceful. It was a great place to disconnect and relax yet close to the village if needed. We would definitely stay here again!
