Amidst this idyllic backdrop lies Mary Beach Villa, where the traditional villages of the area, the rich history of the local Venetian castle, and the serene, tranquil atmosphere come together to create a perfect setting.
Mary Beach Villa is a modern beachfront oasis, featuring three bedrooms and a private infinity pool that gazes out over the azure South Cretan Sea . Just a few steps from the villa's doorstep, you'll find the secluded sandy beach of Laki. Nearby, three authentic taverns await, offering homemade dishes crafted from traditional recipes and locally sourced ingredients, all prepared upon request by the welcoming owners.

Three beautifully appointed bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower/WC and a family bathroom with a shower/WC and dual sinks, round out the villa's comfortable layout. The master bedroom features a queen size bed with sea views and direct access to the pool and veranda, while the second bedroom has two single beds, and the third bedroom boasts a double bed.

This villa is the ultimate choice for a peaceful family vacation focused on the beach or for honeymooners seeking a romantic and tranquil escape. For larger groups, families, or gatherings, two more sister villas are available on the same grounds.
The village of Fragokastello is a mere 5 km away and offers additional amenities such as supermarkets, restaurants, and ATMs. The quaint village of Skaloti, located approximately 2 km from the villa, has a mini-market for your convenience.
Fragokastello Castle itself is a living piece of history, offering a window into a vibrant and revolutionary past. The castle's remains closely resemble its appearance when it was originally constructed in 1371. Above the main entrance, you'll find a sculpted slate with the Lion of Saint Mark and two Venetian feudal coat of arms. The views of the majestic White Mountains are simply breathtaking and beckon you to embark on daily excursions. The European Hiking Footpath (E4) passes through Fragokastello, meandering through the enchanting Imbros Gorge and traversing the Kalikratis Gorge, both of which are easily accessible for exploration and hiking.
