Casa dei Mezzo

Location
The villa stands in ancient olive groves a 10-minute walk from the fishing port of Makriyialos (also written Makris Gialos) in the far east of Crete.

By Air:
The airstrip at Sitia has been upgraded to accept international flights in summer, but you will more likely fly to Heraklion (or Iraklion), the capital of Crete.

By Boat:
Heraklion can also be reached by daily overnight ferry from Athens.

From the Airport/ Port
It's a 2-hour (130km) drive via Agios Nikolaos and Ierapetra. If you choose not to hire a car you can catch a taxi from Heraklion - note it's best to agree a price before accepting the ride - or catch a bus to Aghios Nikolaos or Ierapetra and a taxi from there.

By Car:
Hiring a car will allow you to explore the area better – Holiday Autos are usually the cheapest, and you can book online.
