Chania which is only a 20 minute drive from Olea Villas, is the second largest city of Crete and the capital of the Chania regional unit. It lies along the north coast of the island. It is a land whose visitors will experience nature in all its glory and will encounter breathtaking sights.
Despite being heavily bombed during World War II, Chania’s Old Town is considered the most beautiful urban district on Crete, especially the crumbling Venetian harbour. Its beautiful Venetian quarter is a web of atmospheric streets that tumble onto a magnificent harbour. Restored Venetian townhouses have been converted into chic restaurants and boutique hotels, while ruins house stunning tavernas. Chania is a place where it is close to impossible to get bored. Amazing beaches, amazing cuisine, amazing excursions, amazing hospitality.
