Mirtos is healthy.

Mirtos has, thanks to the protection of the Dikti Mountains, a fully subtropical climate. Dry, warm and totally clean air!

For a lot of people with muscle or joint diseases, this means that their stay in Mirtos will improve their condition quite a bit (rheumatism sufferers, for example ).

The particular light of Sout Crete is very benificial. Good for people who suffer from depression.

Mirtos is active.

Being healthy also means being active. There are a lots of possibilities for walks, with or without a guide. Villa Mertiza has print-outs of various walks. We also have walking guides in our book collection which you are welcome to borrow.

Mirtos is versatile.

Lots of interesting activities are possible in and around Mirtos.
Swimming, relaxing and reading on the beach, for example in Mirtos and Tertsa.
Adventure tours in the mountains to small mountain villages, such as the deserted village of Kalami.
Special walks through gorges, such as the Sarakina Canyon near Mithi.
Boat tours to Crissi island, and to the leper colony on the island of Spinalonga.
Visiting churches and monasteries, such as Ano Viannos and Kritsa.

Mirtos is for all ages, but not for everyone.

The nice thing about our village is that people of all ages enjoy being there. Singles, couples, families and seniors form a pleasant mix.

But young people looking for an exciting and noisy night life will prefer to choose a different destination.

Are you looking for a delightful atmosphere, a feeling of space, and peace and quiet in a holiday? Then Mirtos is ideal.
