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.

Activities in Avdou Area
Golf:
*The Crete Golf Club, the most challenging golf course in Greece, has opened.
Its 18 holes cover 72 hectares on a mountainous terrain just south of Hersonissos.
The course, created in a desert style design, is a Par 71 championship layout and is 6700 yards long. Four sets of tee positions on each hole make it a worthwhile experience for golfers of all levels.
The double sided driving range features covered bays and the state of the art pitching and putting greens provide the pupils at The Crete Golf Academy with a perfect learning environment.
Paragliding:
Avdou is the most organised area for paragliding in Crete. It has a 6-hectare area for taking-off and a 2-hectare area for landing (one is in the North and the other is in the North-west). You can hire a trainer for a double-flight (for beginners) or hire a parachute with its accessories and also be transferred to the takeoff area (for trained pilots)
Horse riding:
You can take horse riding lessons in an organised area (for beginners) or to ride over the hills of Lagada accompanied by a guide. You can also take natural horsemanship courses (rider-horse interaction).
