Set across three acres of olive groves overlooking the east coast of Alonnisos, this address has a rather unique layout. There are a grand total of four buildings on the site — three of which hold the six bedrooms between them and the final one is a communal space complete with a kitchen and living room with a futuristic fireplace hovering just off the ground. This setup could be ideal for multiple families travelling together.

Outside, the star of the show is the twenty-five-metre-long swimming pool surrounded by loungers and lush Mediterranean vegetation. However, prepare to be equally as wowed by the terrace space and the beautiful panorama of the Alonnisos Marine Park — Greece's first such project of its kind.

It's the sort of beautiful backdrop that makes you just want to do nothing but drink in the scenery, so you might be pleased to hear that there's a team of staff here, which includes a villa manager, two housekeepers, a trio of kitchen workers and a boat captain that can take guests out on tours twice a week. In between those days, you can wander down to Tripiti Beach in only five minutes, although there are plenty more that don't take too long to reach in the car. The island's Old Town is a twenty-minute drive away, as well.
