This immaculate villa made from natural materials calls out for group celebrations and special occasions. It's high above the Cretan Sea, so you can soak up the sunshine while watching the waves wash in and out of shore. In complete isolation and privacy, this modern home uses bi-folding glass walls and patio doors to optimise the landscape vistas and gorgeous surroundings.
We particularly love the infinity pool overlooking Mirabello Bay, complete with sun lounge chairs and a decked terrace. Top up your tan poolside, before cooling off with a refreshing dip for lunch. Gather the group together for an alfresco meal with traditional mezze platters being passed around the outdoor dining table. If a cat nap is on the cards, the comfortable bedrooms ensure a restful sleep, and you'll wake up to stunning ocean views, thanks to the sleek, retracting glass.
There are a few surprises at the villa too for that added level of luxury. Whether you're an active type looking to maintain your daily fitness routine in the gym or after a leisurely evening in front of the home cinema, it's all catered for at this crowd-pleasing pad.
If you can peel yourself away from this slice of paradise, the nearest sandy beach is well within reach here (1km). For those exploring further afield, Plaka Beach makes for a great family day out and is only a 10km drive away, while the charming town of Elounda is just a short drive from your doorstep for those culture-seekers. But whatever you get up to, ensure to return to your luxurious jacuzzi in the master bedroom for a romantic evening watching the sunset over this beautiful island.
