Lake Horizons

Lake Horizons: Crete

Overlooking Lake Kournas and the White Mountains beyond, this scenic villa offers more than just jaw-dropping views. Modern and stylish, it’s an ideal base for a family or group of friends looking to make the most out of Chania’s stunning nature, all while enjoying a peaceful, fun retreat.

Wood accents and a neutral palette characterise the home’s interiors, where plenty of light filters through the large view-giving windows. Open the living area’s French doors to step out onto the first of several outdoor spaces – the vistas stretching out before you here are sure to take your breath away. After savouring a freshly made coffee on the terrace, head down to the pool area to while away sunny hours taking dips in the cool waters while admiring panoramic views of the lake.

As evening draws in, make your way into the garden where a barbecue and outdoor seating beckon celebratory alfresco feasts amonst the scent of the lemon trees, followed by a restful night’s sleep in the comfortable bedrooms.

With your host able to organise everything from helicopter rides to private chefs, personal trainers, wine tastings and beauty treatments, you’re well covered when it comes to ways to relax and unwind. And when you’re ready to venture out for some exploring of your own, you’ll find a restaurant 500 metres away, a grocery store 5 kilometres away and the nearest beach 5 kilometres away as well. What’s more, there’s a plethora of cafes and shops around the lake’s edge, as well as plenty of opportunities for pedal boating and walking on and along its shores.
