Villa Helena is a modern new-build villa (completed 05/2022) in a peaceful location above Makrigialos, offering stunning sea views, privacy, and a beautiful outdoor area made for relaxed holiday living. Thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows, you can enjoy open views over olive groves towards the coastline and the Mediterranean from the living area and the bedrooms. The villa sleeps up to 6 guests and is perfect for families or friends travelling together: 3 bedrooms – each with its own en-suite shower bathroom. The bright open-plan living space flows into a fully equipped kitchen, so you can cook and still stay connected with your guests.
Outside you’ll find a spacious sun terrace with lounge furniture, parasols and a BBQ area — ideal for long evenings with local specialties and a glass of Cretan wine. The private saltwater pool features an integrated jacuzzi/massage zone in the water (not a separate hot tub). We are Nadine & René from Kaste Holidays and we know Makrigialos and the region personally.
After booking you will receive our digital guest guide including a video room tour, restaurant and beach tips, local shopping recommendations, airport car rental advice and selected activities.
Almost like a private boutique hotel: en-suite comfort in every bedroom, plus sea views, a terrace and your own pool.

Villa Helena is located slightly above Makrigialos in a quiet olive grove setting — away from crowds, yet very convenient. The charming seaside village of Makrigialos with its beach, promenade, cafés and tavernas is easy to reach. Thanks to the gentle hillside position, you’ll enjoy privacy, open space and exceptional sea views.

Makrigialos is in the southeast of Crete: well connected, yet far from mass tourism. The sandy beaches are known for crystal-clear water and a shallow entry — also great for families.

Daily essentials (supermarkets, bakery, pharmacy, etc.) and many tavernas and cafés are nearby. The area also offers wonderful options for hiking, watersports and day trips towards Ierapetra or into the mountain villages.
A car is recommended to explore the area comfortably (different beaches, mountain trips, shopping). At the same time, Makrigialos with its beach, tavernas and cafés can also be reached on foot depending on your pace. Before arrival, we will send you digital directions and guide you with short messages all the way to the villa. Our guest guide also includes airport car rental recommendations and our personal tips for activities and day trips.
