Lose yourself in a bestselling novel at this intimate, award-winning, family-owned boutique villa hotel, situated in a traditional fishing village, with sweeping sea views over the Gulf of Mirabello. One of the most exclusive retreats on Crete's unspoilt coastline, the location was celebrated in Victoria Hislop's novel 'The Island' set on Spinalonga. A short ferry ride from the tiny harbour of Plaka takes you to this former leper islet, crowned by its imposing Venetian fortress, where much of the drama of the novel takes place.
