Location
Villa Vollard is situated in a quiet, beautiful location in the Pantanassa area of Heraklion, Crete. It is nestled specifically in the scenic village of Rodia, which is widely celebrated as the "Balcony of Heraklion" due to its magnificent, elevated vantage point over the north coast and the glittering Aegean Sea.
The villa balances perfect privacy and tranquility with excellent proximity to local culture and attractions. Traditional Cretan taverns and cozy cafe-bars in the village center are just over 1 kilometer away, while the nearest beach at Pantanassa and historical sites like the Palaiokastro Venetian fortress are only a short 2.5 to 3-kilometer drive down the hill. For a more vibrant city experience, the center of Heraklion is located just 13 kilometers from the property, and the Heraklion International Airport is roughly 18 kilometers away.
