The Sea Lily

The Sea Lily: Crete

Located in the charming village of Vamos at the foothills of 'The White Mountains’, this beautiful home opens its doors to authentic island life.

With its origins dating back to the early 19th century, the space has been thoughtfully restored to capture the rustic simplicity and beauty of Cretan style. It feels traditional here but with luxurious details that add warmth and comfort. Open the doors and step out into the garden – this is a wonderful place to begin your day with breakfast under the shaded pergola. And whether you’re reading by the pool or enjoying a siesta in the bedroom, it’s easy to feel at home here.

Days can be spent exploring this beautiful stretch of coastline – Kera Beach is only an eight–minute drive away, while the stunning town of Chania is only a forty–minute drive away. And if you need any supplies during your stay, Vamos village is only a short stroll away.

As the sun sets, you’ll love coming together in the garden to share the timeless magic of outdoor living.
