This charming villa can be found in picturesque Sinaredes, a traditional village full of narrow streets, stone buildings, and ancient churches. Glyfada Beach is only ten minutes away by car, but you’ll feel a million miles from the hustle and bustle at this tranquil home. We love the stunning views, which can be admired both inside and out thanks to the glass frontage. The private pool sits amid lovely landscaped grounds with areas for alfresco dining, as well as plenty of room for lounging in the Cretan sunshine.

Located in the picturesque Peloponnesian region of Greece, this villa boasts a unique blend of contemporary design and classic comfort. Designed with outdoor living in mind, you’ll have a private infinity pool, alfresco dining terrace, vegetable garden and tennis courts to make use of. The kids are bound to appreciate the ping pong table, but if they tire of that they can always head down to the basement for a few games of pool or a movie night. Two beautiful beaches are just 400 metres away, and the local area is home to traditional Greek fish taverns and cafes which make for an authentic experience.

Sun Umbrellas

Finding a hillside hideaway for two this picturesque and boasting a private infinity pool is a rare thing. The seascape views are a knockout by day, and wait until you clap your eyes on the sunsets. It’s worth noting this is open-plan, studio living, but there’s no compromise on space, inside or out. Location-wise, you’re close to the beautiful beaches of Gialo Skala (1.8km) and Pefkouli (3.7km) and within walking distance of shops and tavernas in the sleepy village of Tsoulakades for evening meals.

Ionian Glory

Lift Access

Found on the Athenian Riviera, a stone's throw from Vouliagmeni Beach, this compact apartment is perfect for a small family of beach lovers. But though the sandy shores a ten-minute walk away is a major draw, there's plenty else to experience around here. The Vouliagmeni Lake, with its thermal springs, can be found in minutes, and you can walk to the restaurant-line square of Vouliagmeni in under ten. The home is spacious, bright and well-kept, with a little balcony for alfresco meals and peaceful reading. 

Between White Columns

Hot Tub

Carbon Monoxide Detector

Boasting breathtaking views of the eastern Aegean Sea, with the islands of Naxos, Amorgos and Anafi visible from the comfort of your own bed, this villa offers the very best of Santorini. Located in the village of Imerovigli, you’ll have an array of sleek bars, fine-dining restaurants and sunset viewing spots within close proximity, but if nature’s more your thing, check out the Ekklisia Theoskepasti hiking trail that leads past the ruined, 13th-century Skaros Venetian Fortress. When you return, you’ll have a private pool (with a Jacuzzi bench) and cosy terrace area to enjoy a few drinks. 

Myriad of Stars

Breakfast Included

This apartment is located in the picturesque village of Oia, the most famous village in Santorini. With its traditional narrow streets, blue-domed churches and sun-drenched verandas, Oia offers a serene and beautiful setting for a relaxing retreat. This home is on the small side, but it’s perfect for a romantic break or a solo trip. The private terrace and hot tub overlook the sparkling Aegean Sea, and you really couldn’t ask for a better view. While parking is possible at the entrance of the village, a car isn’t essential as the area is best explored on foot, with Katharos Beach just a 19-minute walk away.

This sleek apartment is within walking distance of the Athens coast, with great sea views. While the minimalist design might not be for everyone, the location is ideal for those who don't want to be in the centre of the city. The outdoor seating is perfect for enjoying a glass of wine at sunset and offers unobstructed views of the Aegean sea. You'll want a car for heading into central Athens, but it's an easy walk to restaurants, cafes, and the sandy Yabanaki beach.

Nestled in an olive grove alongside two other villas, this home offers the best of both worlds – a rural retreat with easy access to the coast. Unfussy in style, it’s perfect for a family or two couples seeking a Greek island escape – just bear in mind that the bedroom on the first floor is semi-open to the space below, and the en-suite shower is open to the bedroom, so privacy is limited. For days not spent poolside, the pebble beach of Agios Isidoros is a mere five-minute drive away.

Resort Access

Perched atop a complex of three villas with enchanting views of the Ionian Sea, this heavenly villa exists in the balance between modern and classical. Promising full privacy, you'll be able to swim in the large pool before rinsing off in the outdoor shower and lounging poolside with drink in hand under the hot Greek sun. Even indoors, the floor-to-ceiling windows scattered throughout the villa allow the sunshine to permeate the space, so after a night spent on silk sheets you can be greeted by sun and sea. Dig into some freshly barbecued bifteki and dine alfresco with stunning views, or introduce your taste buds to some mouth-watering local cuisine at one of the nearby restaurants.

The nearest beach is accessed on foot from the villa down a private road, under a beautiful canopy of cypress trees and lush greenery. You'll find a traditional restaurant and multiple cafes on the beachfront, if those breathtaking views of the sea from the villa made you want to get a closer look. If you want to inject a little adventure into your holiday, the nearby beaches are also a paradise for watersports. Whether you're here to relax and decompress, have a good time, or a little of both, there's something for you at this beautiful home.

Parking On Street

With the beach just 250 metres away, this beautiful home makes use of natural elements and a boho touch to instil a sense of tranquillity that’s only helped along by the breathtaking sea views from the terrace. 

Embrace a slower pace by staying in bed long after you’ve woken up just so you can read another chapter. Eventually, drag yourself out towards the kitchenette where you can grab a coffee to enjoy out on the terrace. Savour the sounds and smells of the ocean as you watch the horizon from the hanging egg chair, or fill out a crossword puzzle at the outdoor dining table. The latter, coincidentally, is the perfect place for an alfresco breakfast, but you can always head out to the local cafe, just under two miles away.

Bask in the sun as you read on the daybed and hop into the plunge pool whenever you need a bit of cooling down. Take a walk down to the beach and enjoy the sunset together before slowly making the trip back for a night of charades in the living space.

Fenced Property

On the picture-perfect south coast of Crete, in the quaint village of Mariou, this serene villa beckons. With views over the seaside landscape, this home showcases all of the natural beauty this Greek island has to offer.

Start the day by brewing a fresh cup of coffee before opening up the patio doors and stepping out onto the private terrace. Take a seat on the outdoor sofa and enjoy the breathtaking views over the Crete coastline. For a leisurely day at home, take a dip in the swimming pool then retire to a sun lounger to read a book or simply watch the world go by.

When you do fancy leaving the terrace, there’s plenty of natural beauty to discover, with the striking Preveli beach just 3 miles away. If beach hopping is your thing, we’d recommend renting a car and driving 3km to Plakias, which is home to some of the best beaches in Crete - the scenic drive past mountains and the Libyan sea makes the trip even more worth your while. 

Beach Hop Hideaway

Ironing Board

For a characterful, scenic stay on a staggeringly beautiful Greek island, choose this blue-and-white villa with mesmerising sea views. Flourishing olive and palm trees huddle around the two-bedroom home and its pool, providing that all-important privacy and seclusion you've been seeking.

When you're not sunbathing poolside or dining on the terrace, enjoy the mood-lifting aesthetic that's carried through the villa. It begins with the punchy blue shutters and continues with the technicolour textiles in the open living space. We're particularly fond of the Persian-style rugs scattered across the rooms, adding a homely and bohemian flair.

The picturesque port of Loutraki is just a fifteen-minute walk away. Watch fishing boats come and go as you sip coffee at a waterfront taverna. If you're up for a drive, Skopelos town is forty minutes away – pass through luscious landscapes on your way, peppered with red-roofed buildings and traditional churches. When you arrive, meander through colourful narrow streets lined with craft shops and tavernas, overlooking the azure-hued Aegean sea.

Kefalonia is one of the most beautiful destinations in Greece, and this home is one of the most striking holiday homes we’ve seen. Staying here, you’re able to enjoy all that the island has to offer from a luxurious and serene villa, with your every need catered for. 

The villa has a traditional stone exterior, with stylish touches like floor-to-ceiling windows. Light streams into the home, adding to the subtly tranquil style of the home. Each bedroom has its own special features, be it a private balcony for you to take your morning coffee on, or a rainfall shower that washes away any lingering stresses. 

Outside, the villa’s magic really starts to show. A spacious terrace leads to the inviting infinity pool, which looks out over the lush land below and beyond to the sea. Dining under the pergola is delightful – with a breeze dancing through your hair and the views stretched out before you, it’s impossible not to relax. Another slightly raised space under a pergola boasts comfortable sofas – this is where you’ll want to watch the sun sink in the sky each evening. 


Sunbeams On Pillows

With olive trees and blue skies as far as the eye can see, and the Ionian Sea sparkling in the distance, at this modern Greek home you'll feel instantly at one with nature. Spend your mornings swimming gentle laps in the shared infinity pool, then enjoy breakfast with a view on one of two private terraces. Sunseekers, this is the spot for you. 

The understated and comfortable home is fitted with everything you'll need for a stress-free stay, including a few extras – there's a communal barbecue, fitness room and children's playground on-site for your use. When you're ready to explore the stunning surrounding area, you're spoiled for scenic places to visit. Winding your way through silver-sheened groves, you'll reach the white-sand Zacharo beach in just ten minutes, stopping at a traditional taverna en route to sample local specialities. 

Land Meets Sea

Mini Bar

Balcony / Rooftop Terrace

Appearing like a wedding cake out of the verdant hills of Astypalaia, this palatial whitewashed structure has been converted into three design-led villas, and here is one of them. The interiors are enviably chic: smooth concrete floors, exposed stonework walls, and a grey-blue colour palette create the architectural ambiance, while statement lampshades, an indoor bamboo plant in the high-spec kitchen, and artful wall hangings provide idiosyncratic charm. The main bathroom is designed by the influential French architect Philippe Starke, and its sultry stonework wall gives it a grotto-like feel. 

There are balconies on the lower and upper levels, complete with a long banquette for lounging on and a table for alfresco meals. Come evening, whip up cocktails and hop into the jacuzzi as you admire the sun setting over the Aegean Sea. 

Astypalaia is the butterfly-shaped island in the Dodecanese that is rich in history and immaculately preserved. It hasn’t been tainted by the tourist trail, so you’ll find pristine beaches, wild hiking trails, and picture-perfect whitewashed houses. The house is 200 metres from the town of Astypalaia, and the crystalline waters of Livadi Beach are less than 2 kilometres away. Your host provides all sorts of bonus perks, like free transfer to and from the airport or port, welcome and farewell treats, and daily breakfast service. 

Adonis Blue

This sleek and stylish villa awaits you with gorgeous views overlooking the surrounding area from the balcony. Natural daylight pours in through the large windows, doubling up as doors that grant you direct access to the outdoor space. Put your feet up on the sofa as you watch a movie together on the TV, or unwind with a bottle of red while you read a brand new book. You don't have to worry about missing out on your exercise routine while you're staying here, with a handy at-home gym you can keep your beloved workout routine. 

Cook up a delicious homemade meal inspired by the Grecian cuisine you'll be sampling during your time here. Tuck into the hearty plate of food at the wooden dining table – washed down with a glass of bubbly and paired with a scenic view by the window. Two of the bedrooms give you access to the outdoors, with one leading to the balcony and the other to the refreshing pool. The large windows in these bedrooms allow ample daylight to stream in, as well as provide an absolutely beautiful view of the sunset. Relax by the pool as you bathe in the amber glow of the evening or take a dip as you admire the encompassing landscape.

Head out to visit Althea Beach where you can spend your days by the sea, listening to the ocean waves as you relax under the sun with a refreshing drink. Take a drive along the coastline where you'll find Beach Duni Island – a fantastic spot to take those much-loved holiday snaps. 

Blue Paradise

This amazing Greek villa is located on the North-East coast of the Island of Kea. The stone house looks out over the beautiful turquoise ocean with a view of the island of Euboea and the coast of Attica. 

The perfect home for relaxing and recovering, why not take so time to lounge in the Greek sunshine and enjoy the warmth of its rays on your skin. Then, slip into the cooling waters of the freshwater swimming pool, and enjoy the stunning views while you float leisurely in the pool. 

Just a six-minute drive to Otzias, you can enjoy the sandy beaches and soothing sound of waves lapping at the shore, or dine in one of the local Tavernas. The village of Vourkari – just an eight-minute drive away – provides an opportunity for not only beach days but also scuba diving experiences. 

Coressia, the island’s port, is just a twelve-minute drive away, while the capital Ioulis is a twenty-five-minute drive away. In Ioulis you will be able to visit the archaeological museum and even see the Lion of Kea – an impressive early Greek stone monument that dates back to the Archaic period. 

What’s more, there is a regular ferry connection between Athens and Kea which takes about an hour, taking you to the Lavrion port. From here, you can drive about fifty-six minutes to Greece’s capital and explore everything Athens has to offer. 

After all your exploring, return home to the villa in the evening and cook some delicious souvlaki on the barbecue before dining alfresco as you enjoy the sun setting over the vista. 

Kea to my Heart

Hydromassage swimming pool, wood-fire oven and gorgeous views across Platis Gialos Bay? You got it. This serene villa ticks all our boxes and then some, promising a relaxing and restful treat in Sifnos. 

You'll spend most of your time on the veranda, where the cool blue pool beckons on hot afternoons. Fire up the barbecue and outdoor oven when you're feeling peckish – we suggest souvlaki with a side of homemade pita bread – then tuck into your meal underneath the shade of the pergola, watching as the boats bob in the harbour. After lunch, sprawl out for a catnap in the sunshine or retreat inside to the breezy living room and take a breather on the built-in sofas. We love the eclectic mix of antiques – when paired with the white-wash walls, the whole house feels modern yet traditional. Come evening, sip cocktails or share a bottle of local Grecian wine as the sun sets over the Aegean Sea.

Location-wise, you're just a seven-minute drive from Paralia Platis Gialos and its charming array of beachfront eateries and tavernas. Hoping to stay active on your holiday? Your host provides four mountain bikes and guests can enjoy a daily one-hour canoe, paddleboard or water bike lesson – included with stays between May and September.

Seawardly Skies

Contemporary and super stylish, this sleek new home is part of a small development built into the hillside, overlooking the beautiful bay of Syvota. With some of the most romantic Ionian sunset views you're likely to find, it's been designed for up to four. Here there's nothing to distract from the main event – the epic sea view – with a luxurious private infinity pool disappearing over the edge and frameless glass balustrades.

Inside it's cool, modern, and minimal. White and grey hues, along with smooth concrete, natural stone, and lots of glass keep it fresh and bright, and it's a world away from the stresses of day-to-day life. Whip up a breakfast of fresh fruit and coffee, read all day on the sunny terrace, or drive to one of the area's fabulous beaches, later heading into town for a special meal together. Just be sure to get home in time to watch the sun go down – you won't want to miss it.

Stonemade

Perched right above the beautiful Toroneos Bay in Halkidiki, this stylish villa is the perfect getaway for two. Not only are panoramic views a given here, but with a private pool, breezy balcony and sunny terrace yours to enjoy, you'll be able to revel in the scenery morning, noon and night. Get the day started with an alfresco breakfast in the fresh air, then take it easy for the rest of the afternoon, lounging by the pool and swimming in the clear blue water. Come evening, share a bottle of wine on the balcony and watch the sunset before making your way inside to the minimal and sleek living space for some pre-bedtime telly.

Even better, this villa is part of a resort with a whole slew of activities to keep you busy, from bike riding and poolside yoga classes to massages, boat trips and snorkelling. The on-site restaurant means dinner is sorted, while the communal gym ensures you'll never miss a workout. And we can't forget about the exclusive beach just for resort residents. Private and serene, there's nothing better than laying on the sand and splashing in the waves on your very own stretch of the shore – sounds like the quintessential Grecian holiday to us.

Into the Silver Dawn

Sonos

Famed for being the filming location of the blockbuster musical hit ‘Mamma Mia,’ the island of Skopelos is every bit the natural wonderland the film depicted. Surrounded by mountains blanketed in pine forests and the turquoise of the Aegean never far away, stunning scenery is the name of the game here. 

One look at this gorgeous villa and there will be no asking voulez-vous – you’ll be enchanted from the moment you arrive. Inside, a sleek modern decor invites you to kick back and relax in the bright living area, while upstairs the two bedrooms offer a magical wake-up with their glorious hilly views and luxurious bedding. With three bathrooms here too, there’s no chance of an SOS when it comes to taking turns under the luxurious rainfall showers. 

Step outside to be met with a spectacular outdoor space – you’ll find time slipping through your fingers as you chill out on the sunbeds and while away sunny hours in the L-shaped infinity pool. As evening falls, fire up the barbecue and retreat to the pergola’s table for an alfresco feast, before finishing the night with a starlit soak in the hot tub. 

With a Sonos sound system to delight any dancing queen, as well as Greek toiletries and Netflix to enjoy, when all is said and done, you’re in for a blissful time. 

When it comes to exploring the local area, drive ten minutes to explore Skopelos Town and enjoy a day by the sea at Paralia Glifoneri (a ten-minute drive) or lovely Limnonari Beach (a fifteen-minute drive). Fans of Mamma Mia can visit the famous Agios Ioannis Church just under forty minutes away by car, while Panormos’ crystal clear bay is also fifteen minutes away by car. 

Donna's Dance

Wake up in paradise at this unique four-bedroom home on Greece's mainland, with sweeping scenes of olive trees, azure waters and bright blue skies before you. The entire property offers awe-inspiring views across the Aegean – in just two minutes you'll reach your closest access point, a secluded rocky beach, shared with the two other villas in this contemporary complex.

In the morning, glide through gauzy curtains that separate your room from the great outdoors. A picturesque garden will greet you, complete with an ancient olive tree and a private pool to swim gentle laps in. Prepare breakfast in the modern kitchen – with sliding glass doors, you won't need to break from the view – and take it outdoors to enjoy under the Grecian sun.

Hawkeyed guests may spot the rugged peaks of Mount Olympus on the horizon. According to Greek mythology, this was the celestial stomping ground of ancient gods and goddesses. Zeus is said to have a temper, so try not to get on his bad side.

A tranquil 500-year-old hideaway, set in the historic old town's centre overlooking Parikia's main square, this charming apartment is the ideal island bolthole for a couple or a solo traveller looking to explore the picturesque island of Paros. With your helpful hosts on hand, you can toss out the guidebook and simply ask them for those tips and tricks that only locals know about. For an authentic island experience, it doesn't get much better than this.

Tucked away down an alleyway in one of the oldest buildings on the island, the unmistakable blue doors lead into a quaint tiled courtyard with a table and chairs set up for you to enjoy your morning coffee outdoors. Step through the quirky archway door and into this peaceful haven, furnished with pieces created by skilled local craftspeople. Hand-carved stone peeks out from the walls throughout the home, and an original Cycladic fireplace adds plenty of character to the bedroom.

Step through a second interior archway and you'll find a sparkling modern kitchen that's perfect for recreating traditional taverna classics in the comfort of your own home. But with all the recommendations you'll have been provided, it might be a while before it sees any action.

Away from Paros, discover awe-inspiring natural beauty, picture-perfect golden beaches and crystal-clear seas. Head inland to explore the whitewashed hilltop village of Lefkes, 11km away, or continue another 9km to the east coast for a white knuckle windsurfing experience in one of the world's premier destinations. Alternatively, board a boat in the nearby port and explore some of the neighbouring islands.

Erato

Playground

Sauna

With views of Mount Athos and Diaporos, this beautiful home is the total package for anyone looking to make the most of their time away. For some that might be exploring all Halkidiki has to offer – sunbathe on azure beaches, eat at local tavernas and visit archaeological sites like Stageira, Aristotle’s birthplace, and Olynthus. 

Others might like their holiday to take a more relaxing shape, and the villa can certainly accommodate. Spend your time in and around the pool when you’re not catching afternoon naps on the beachfront sun bed. Walk in the soft sand and splash in the surf when the sun is at its peak before enjoying a meze platter al fresco on the terrace. 

Spend mornings on the private tennis courts or in the gym before a quick trip to the sauna. Stargaze after sunset as you recap the day’s adventures in good company and grab another beer before ending the evening with a few friendly rounds of pool.

Paradise at the End of the Lane

Indoor Pool

Visitors to this historic villa located in the hills of beautiful Lesvos can expect a truly unique experience during their stay. Blending old style elegance and modern design, you’ll find the home creates an atmosphere of private relaxation only amplified by the luxurious amenities and services provided. Here, you’ll wake in the comfort of your suite’s luxury bedding as the Aegean sunlight streams through your room, then play your favourite tune over the sound system while enjoying a morning espresso on the plush chaise longue. And there is no need to worry about breakfast – each day a private chef will organise an a la carte menu for you and your family or friends to choose from, which you can take in the dining room or alfresco on the patio with views of the surrounding hills. 

If you’re feeling adventurous, why not tour your beautiful surroundings, which include one of the world’s largest petrified forests, a magnificent valley and dramatic mountain range, and the spiritual beach town of Skala Eresou with its restaurants, cafes, bars, and yoga studios. For those needing a little more rest and relaxation, take in the afternoon sunshine by the pool before visiting the villa’s hammam and private bath for a unique spa experience. Come dinner, why not treat yourself to another fine local meal served up by the villa’s private chef? That’s why you’re here after all – to enjoy life to its fullest.

Courtyard

Rooftop Terrace

24-Hour Front Desk

Located on the hillside of the authentic village of Finikia, this mid-19th century captain house has been re-designed into a functional space – ideal for relaxing and entertaining. The courtyard and roof garden is the ideal spot to tuck into a Greek Meze, whilst the Jacuzzi is perfect for relaxing and watching the panoramic sunset. The villa will suit those looking to explore the island, and the coastal town of Oia isn’t too far away. 

The Hillside Hideaway

Chic and stylish, this suite has an air of understated luxury. While it’s on the small side, the private garden has more than enough space for two and boasts a private pool. There’s no kitchen here, so we think this home is best suited to a couple or two friends who want to relax and take time off from everyday tasks. There’s a Greek taverna close by where you can sample some of the local cuisine, and you’ll have your own dining table to sit and enjoy a coffee each morning. The location is a real selling point – the beautiful Laguna Beach is just 550 metres away.

Shade of Cedars 

Nestled just outside the small town of Otzias, there’s not a lot going on in this quiet corner of Greece, but you’ll have a variety of amenities at your fingertips that will make it difficult to leave this inviting home. Designed to take full advantage of the Mediterranean climate, it features a spacious outdoor entertainment area that wraps around the home. The communal spaces, like the infinity pool, barbecue and cosy seating zones, make it an ideal choice for a large family or group of friends. The Aegean Sea is steps away, but the shoreline is rocky, so you’ll need to drive to a local beach if you want to comfortably swim in the sea. 

The Sea's Embrace

Parking On Premises

Located on tranquil Kea, this charming villa promises a memorable island escape. Dressed in white, grey and green and infused with natural light, the inside space invites you to kick back and relax in its serene surroundings. With sea views stretching out before you, you’ll be drawn out onto the terrace in no time. Whether you’re enjoying the refreshing water of the private pool or simply sitting back on a lounger, soaking up the Greek rays as you enjoy the scenery, you’ll feel at home here. For a memorable evening, light the barbecue and rustle up some dinner to enjoy on the covered terrace, before settling down with a bottle of wine and your loved ones to drink in the stunning sunset over the water. 

If the sea is calling your name, take a mere five-minute stroll and you can sink your feet into the golden sands of Xyla beach. As you step down to the shore and the water rushes up to greet you, take in a deep breath of invigorating air and savour the moment – your Greek adventure is just beginning. 

Kea Calling

Outdoor Audio

Sun seekers – this one’s for you. With an array of terrace spaces to soak up the glorious Greek rays, this holiday will be all about outdoor living. With two dining tables, a barbecue and a bar, you won’t even need to go indoors to cook. Not only that, you can drink in the sea views from the refreshing water of the private infinity pool, from the villa’s prime hillside location overlooking Korissia. With four bedrooms – one of which has a bunk bed better suited to children – you’ll find a calming, tranquil space to relax when you venture inside.

Overlooking the Ionian Sea, this home, split into three independent villas, is well-suited to large family reunions. We think you’ll do most of your socialising outside, thanks to the summer kitchen and private infinity pool. Loungers provide views of mountains and olive groves, and the covered terrace is the ideal spot for cocktails. The interiors are straightforward yet comfortable, with each double bedroom having its own en-suite and private outdoor space. Just a ten-minute walk away, you’ll find beautiful beaches, traditional tavernas and bars in and around Lourdas village. 

Ocean & Olive

Perched overlooking the Ionian Sea, this villa in Sivota sits comfortably alongside the Lefkada landscape. The villa is contemporary with traditional touches – with plenty of space to relax and socialise. You can spend days unwinding on the sunny terrace with the infinity pool, and enjoy evening meals cooked on the barbecue in the outdoor dining area. Just a few steps below the villa, you can find the private jetty – ideal for rock bathing. A short drive from the town – you can dine in one of the many seafood restaurants and have after-dinner drinks in an authentic taverna.
