About this campground
Glamping and sea views combine in one fabulous location at Glamsea, a secluded spot on a Cretan cliffside about 15 minutes’ drive from Heraklion. And what’s even better is that there’s only a single pod here, so you’ll have those views all to yourselves… And what gorgeous views they are, looking out over the Gulf of Heraklion across the bright blue waters of the Aegean Sea towards the island of Dia (a place created by Zeus himself, no less).

You’ll have plenty of lovely spots from which to take in views throughout the day too, as your private terrace has a good collection of outdoor furniture to choose from – perhaps a sun lounger for a bit of sunbathing or a hammock for an afternoon in the shade? Drinks while you relax? The pod has a coffee maker and kettle for your morning kickstart and a fridge to keep your evening beers cool. Also inside the pod are a comfy double bed and an ensuite shower room with toilet and sink – all bedding and towels are provided to keep things nice and easy. As this is such a stunning setting it’s no surprise to hear that the owners would like to help preserve it. With that in mind they’ve designed the place to be as eco-friendly as possible, running it entirely on solar power and providing guests with recycling facilities. Should you be able to drag yourselves away from this spectacular retreat, there are plenty of hiking routes and bike trails nearby, or you could use this place as a base for outings to the likes of Knossos and sampling the many restaurants of Heraklion.
