Drift & Dazzle

Drift & Dazzle: Aegean South

This delightful villa is the perfect place to while away days in the Grecian sunshine. Built with local stone and featuring a stunning view of the Aegean Sea, there's no shortage of reasons to love this place. Inside, the interiors honour traditional Cycladic design with a light-filled, minimal living space ideal for relaxing. All the bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and comfortable beds, while the kitchen is well-stocked for rustling up dinner using the herbs and fresh produce from the small garden out front. And speaking outside, the terrace calls for barbecues in the afternoon sun and glasses of wine as the evening draws to a close. Our favourite part is the infinity pool, where you can float the day away while admiring the dreamy panoramas.

When you're in the mood for adventure, hop in the car and explore the wild beauty of Tinos. Known as Greece's spiritual heart, there's a myriad of things to discover, from ancient churches and hiking routes to beautiful beaches. The closest is just eight minutes by car, while the port town of Tinos and its array of restaurants, bars and boutiques is a fifteen-minute drive away. Your host can even arrange island excursions and yacht rentals.
