In a land of mountains, plateaux, gorges, and coast, The Lagada villa is ideally positioned, close to the best beaches in south east Crete, and in a central location from which to explore the natural, historical, and cultural treasures of east Crete. The area is home to Minoan, Venetian, and Roman ruins, the former dating as far back as 1400 B.C. More recent evidence of habitation can be found at Moni Kapsa, a 15th century monastery perched on the mountain side where the Pervolakia gorge emerges at the coast, four miles east of Makrigialos. Contemporary culture is represented by timeless traditional Cretan villages, such as Pefki and Agios Stefanos, nestled in the mountain hinterland. Road access is good, allowing day trips that range from Toplou Monastery in the far north-east, the palatial ruins of Minoan Kato Zakros on the east coast, the Venetian fort of Spinalonga to the north-west, and the Lasithi plateau to the west. Even a day trip to Knossos, just south of Heraklion, is achievable. ABOUT THE AREA Makrigialos (officially spelled Makry-Gialos) is a small, unspoiled beach resort on the south-east coast of Crete, some 45 miles (70km) from the tourist hotspots of Elounda and Agios Nikolaos, and a world removed from the frenetic pace of Malia. It has a permanent population of around 1000 inhabitants who originate mostly from the surrounding villages, but it wasnt all that long ago that the town was just a scattering of store houses and fishermens cottages. Even today the local economy is based as much, if not more, on agriculture as it is on tourism, and when the summer season ends, local business owners look to the olive harvest, which generates some of the finest olive oil in the world. The village is one of the quieter, less developed destinations in Crete, with one of the best beaches in this part of the island. There is a good choice of bars, restaurants, and tavernas, with many establishments fronting onto the beach. There is also a small fishing harbour a pleasant place to stroll around, with its own patch of sandy beach and collection of waterfront bars, tavernas and restaurants standing side by side. During the summer season there are a range of water sports available from pedal boats to jet-skis from the main beach and from the beach below the hotel complex. Fishing boat charter is available from the harbour, and cruises to Chrissi island can be taken from Ierapetra, 30 minutes away by car. For a rural backwater the Makrigialos area boasts some world class attractions: every June the village hosts the prestigious Casa dei Mezzo music festival, and the nearby village of Agios Stefanos is home to the Sasteria public observatory and art workshop.
