Jupiter Views Villa can accommodate 9 guests comfortably, and up to 15 guests if needed, in its 5 bedrooms. The ground floor is fully fenced and wheelchair accessible, has a separate entrance and entirely private pool and patios.

There is free high-speed WiFi (200 Mbps) throughout the properties, individually-controlled AC, central heating and cooling, central vacuum, and TVs with satellite channels.
Named after Jupiter's spectacular moons discovered by Galileo in the 16th century, the villa’s wall art carries on the theme of moon, cosmos and sea. The Galilean Moons villa has breathtaking allure, mystery and beauty that cannot be found anywhere else. Join us and you will become one with the sea and sky, the moon and the stars, and ready to live the beauty of Crete.
Indoor Comfort:
A bright, comfortable living room equipped with a fireplace and corner sofa, an open-plan kitchen, and a glass dining table has direct access to shaded verandas at the front and side of the villa and allow for spectacular views of the sea, sky and moon. They are furnished with an outside eating area and comfy furniture to enjoy the sea and pool views. There are 4 bedrooms by this living room, two of which form a separate wing with a shared handicapped-accessible bathroom and two have ensuite bathrooms. The master bedroom (king-sized bed) has double doors leading to the front verandas, swimming pool and adjoining whirlpool. You need move only a few steps from your bed to find yourself engulfed in the smell of sea, jasmine, and other local aromatic plants. The ground floor is complete with a private suite, with its entrance off the pool terrace to the west. The studio has a second living room and a small bedroom with a double bed. The cozy living room features a corner couch, a twin sofa chair, bunk beds, as well as twin loft beds ideal for children over 6 years old (or grown-up children too!). The front patio has sea views. The back patio opens into the backyard and herb/tree gardens and secluded relaxing retreat.
All 5 bedrooms have superior quality COCO-MAT mattresses and top mattresses, individually controlled air conditioning and heating, several closets and a wide selection of cushions, made of all natural primary materials providing the best sleeping experience possible.
Bedroom 1: Another inviting bedroom awaits, featuring a King-size bed (1,80 x 2,00 m), with access to a shared, wheelchair-accessible bathroom with a standup shower. It also features a 32” LG TV, a full closet with mirror and safe, and vibrant views of the outdoor whirlpool, pool and Mediterranean Sea beyond.
Bedroom 2: This Bedroom features a Queen-size bed (1,60 x 2,00) with access to the wheelchair-accessible bathroom with a standup shower. It also features a vanity/desk, a closet, a 32” TV, and a west-facing window featuring sea views. Up to two additional guests can be accommodated into a wall-folded single bed and a chair bed.
Bedroom 3: This bedroom features a Queen-size bed (1,60 x 2,00) and ensuite bathroom with a standup shower. It also features a closet, a vanity and a 32” TV. Also, this bedroom boasts a private patio overlooking the backyard gardens.
Bedroom 4: This bedroom is mostly for children with bunk beds and ensuite bathroom. One of the beds folds on the wall, so an adult can also sleep comfortably here.
Bedroom 5: This is a private ensuite studio off the pool terrace featuring a small bedroom with a double bed, as well as a cozy living room with a comfortable corner sofa, bunk beds and a chair bed on the main area.

Outdoor indulgence:
The exterior of the villa is designed as your private setting for sun-soaked days and relaxed evenings. Surrounded by manicured tamarack trees and a rocky coast with lounges, this expansive outdoor space is ideal for family gatherings, celebrations, or tranquil moments of leisure. Step outside into the enchanting outdoor area of the villa, where every detail is designed to offer both relaxation and breathtaking views. This space is a true sanctuary, providing an idyllic setting to soak up the sun, enjoy al fresco dining, and admire stunning sea views.
At the heart of this outdoor paradise is a pristine 52 sq.m infinity pool (1.5m-deep), its sparkling waters inviting you to take a refreshing dip or simply float and unwind. The pool's design seamlessly blends with the surrounding landscape, creating a tranquil oasis that reflects the azure hues of the sea beyond. Next to the pool, a built-in whirlpool with hydromassage (4 high-tech swim jets) is perfect for exercise or relaxation. The pool and whirlpool can also be heated upon request, with an additional daily charge for the entire duration of your stay. The area around the pool is equipped with day beds, loungers, and poolside shower, all having direct unobstructed, mesmerizing sea views of Libyan sea, evidence to Crete’s world-famous element: the clear blue waters.
Several seating and lounging areas are placed all around the terraces. A shaded bar with a sink and ice-maker, high-table and 4 stools create the perfect spot to enjoy refreshing drinks under the stars. Next to the bar, there is an outdoor seating area with solid wood furniture combining a dining table with sitting space, as well as a large round lounger for extra comfort. A ping pong table, as well as a piano offer interested guests further enjoyment and relaxation.
A dedicated BBQ house, complete with a sink, charcoal grill, and gas cooktop, accompanied by a hand-made stone dining table and benches, offers a delightful setting for cooking and dining. A second large dining area by an adjacent covered patio can sit up to 25 guests for meals and wine-tasting. Last but not least there is a back yard garden with local fruit trees, banana trees and Cretan herbs. The characteristic natural terrain of the area is organically preserved inside the well-kept gardens, adorned with lime and mandarin trees, low bushes, plants, local Cretan herbs; allowing you to enrich your cooking and cocktail experience.
The poolside area in front of the sea is thoughtfully equipped with 12 sunbeds, side tables and 2 wooden hammocks that invite you to relax and enjoy the warm days either under the bright sun or below shady tamarack trees. At night, sleep under a thousand stars and enjoy the cool summer breeze.
An outdoor shaded gym, equipped with treadmill, static bicycle, workout bench weights and exercise mattresses, will keep you in optimum health.
The complex has its own water (private well and underground tank), electricity (solar panels, generator), central vacuum, central heating, and cooling that can be independently controlled in each room. In addition, the complex has its own water treatment process that provides the healthiest and tastiest water throughout the villa, including kitchens and bathrooms.
What makes Galilean Moons Villa so special:
- Its unique beachfront location, offering amazing sea vistas and allowing you to have the sea and waves within hands reach.
- You are also conveniently located to several daily amenities, making your daily routine as easy as possible. Close to restaurants, taverns, supermarkets, bakery, pharmacy and a health center, offering an excellent choice for families with children seeking a car-free holiday experience.
- Its spacious outdoor area, perfect for events and celebrations.
- Set among tamarack trees and infused with the fragrant scents of Cretan nature, Galilean Moons Villa offers the ultimate escape.
- Outstanding concierge service.

About the host
Hosted by Dora Angelaki

Hello! I am Dora!
I grew up in Crete and moved to the United States for graduate studies (I now live in New York). Growing up under the clear, star-lit skies of southeast Crete, I have always been captivated by the moon and the stars. In fact, my childish dream was to be an astro-physicist. Although I ended up becoming a neuroscience professor instead, I never forgot the wild beauty of my Cretan home. I have two passions: my research - I work to understand how the best machine (our brain) is built - and my love for this small corner of the world that combines beautiful weather year-around, spectacular beaches, mountainous wild beauty, with Cretan culture and cuisine.
From my job, I was given the opportunity to travel all over the world. As incredible as these adventures around the world were, I always found myself missing my home village. I always knew I would end up in this serene landscape.
We built these villas for our retirement. The Europa villa is our private residence, built and furnished with comfort and style, solid wood and glass, indoor Jacuzzi tub, state-of-the-art kitchen facilities and spectacular views. I love my home (the house, the village, the surrounding area and culture, the Crete island) very much, and now I want to share it with the rest of the world – you! I want to open my home to the people from Europe, the US and other faraway places who have opened their homes to me when I visited their countries.
As such, Welcome to my home! As your host, I will work to have you experience the best parts of this region: the warm culture, rich history, and breathtaking vistas. I hope you enjoy my home throughout all seasons as much as I love it – we are happy to share it with you in every way we can!
