Set in an organic farm in the ever-green valley of Lagada, Avdou Villas is the place to rest, heal and, maybe, change... The hotel is situated in a 2.2-hectare organic farming estate at the south end of Avdou village, right at the foot of the Lassithi plateau mountain range and 30 km from Heraklion Airport. Olive trees, oranges, tangerines, apricot trees, kiwis and a vegetable garden grow in abundance all over the estate. The estate is abundant with serene spots for resting and relaxation. The more active guests can enjoy paragliding, horse riding, trekking, cave exploration and plenty more in the surrounding Avdou area.
An eco-tourism facility, Avdou Villas, offer an alternative way of getting away from it all.
