Mades, Ligaria, seaside village. Location description: The property is located at Lygaria, an area merely 15 km away from Heraklion in Crete, an island definitely on trend in recent years. Although Lygaria is becoming increasingly popular among travelers, the property is located up a small hill in a secluded area thus kept untouched by the package tourists. There are some excellent beaches nearby: the bays Ligaria (4’ drive) and a bit further away Agia Pelagia, are all well worth a visit (umbrellas and watersports are available). Tavernas on these beaches provide excellent local dishes at reasonable prices, while you can enjoy coffees, refreshments, quick meals and free wifi at the many cafes on site. Additionally, Made beach (2’ drive) is a tiny, lovely fishing port that takes you back in time. There is a selection of small mini markets and tourist shops in both Ligaria and Agia Pelagia; a couple of them are within walking distance from the property, if you feel like stretching your legs; or you can be brave and opt for the uphill walk for your morning exercise. The nearby taverna within the secluded area is a convenient choice for lazy meals; besides the home cooked meals on site incl. pizzas baked in a wood-fired oven, it offers delivery service. Neighbors are friendly and quiet, mainly locals with the great sense of hospitality and generosity that Cretans are well-known for. They will gladly invite you for coffee, give you a helping hand, spare you a tomato or two (they will get offended if you insist to replace them), offer you home-grown fruits, homemade sweet fruit preserves or home-distilled raki. From a commercial perspective, Lygaria ranks high in preference of main residence amongst those locals who prefer its quiet and picturesque scenery to the buzzing Heraklion, main city and capital of the island. It is also top choice of secondary residence for those in seek for a vacation place near Heraklion. As for tourists and occasional visitors, being only 18 away km away from ****** Kazantzakis international airport, Lygaria is conveniently located for their exploration of Crete. Situated in the center of the island on the north coast, it is an excellent starting point for day trips to Rethimno, Chania, Agios Nikoalos; excursions to explore Crete’s rugged interior and inland and the less developed southern coast; visits of the most-known archeological places. Once you own this property, you automatically become member of the landlords’ community tasked, among others, to represent owners at the municipality, improve area facilities (wifi for simple internet access is now provided, emergency water tanks have been constructed etc.) and look after the interests of the property owners overall.
