The philosophy and concern of the Villa's owners does not only include
the delivery of reliable services but also the creation for each guest of his
own private milieu in which he will relax and enjoy all that the Vergis
Epavlis offers within its aesthetic environment and incomparable beauty of
the surrounding nature.
The Vergis Epavlis is located on Northern Crete, 14 km south of
Heraklion, the island’s capital. It is perched on a hillside near the
village of Agios Myronas. The accommodation complex offers spectacular
vistas of the Cretan Sea, Mount Youchtas (according to legends, Zeus’s
birthplace), the Lassithi mountain range (snowcapped all year round), hills and
valleys lush with vineyards and olive groves.
The village of Agios Myronas is built around ancient Rafkos, a
settlement that flourished during the Minoan period (ca 1200 BC).
