There's nothing like relaxing by the water while you're on vacation. Take a picnic to Lake Voulismeni and then hang around for a pretty sunset.

You'll find this body of water in Agios Nikolaos Town. Once you've done all you can at Lake Voulismeni, have a look at nearby Voulisma Beach, Elounda Windmills, and Istro Beach.

The rooms and property exceeded my expectations. Well maintained and beautifully appointed. The staff couldn't have been more welcoming and friendly. The property is on the hillside giving gorgeous views. I was nervous about dragging my suitcase up the hill but I was met in the parking area and everything was taken care of for me proactively. They have a lovely bar/restaurant area with a good selection of food and wine. You can't go wrong booking this wonderful property.
