Now that's what we call a view. Overlooking the village of Vourkari and the Aegean Sea, the terrace makes the perfect perch for a morning coffee or a glass of wine. You'll love watching the mainland-bound ferries glide by – and the sunsets here are stunning. Inside certainly doesn't possess the same wow factor – in fairness, it's hard to beat those postcard-worthy panoramas – but we think the fuss-free space will do the job for a family or a small group of friends seeking a relaxing retreat. Moreover, private parking makes exploring Kea a breeze – if you can pull yourself away from the views, that is.

Castaway to the Cyclades Islands at this newly renovated, stone-clad apartment set on the sleepy island of Kea and just a short ferry ride from Athens. Gloriously untouched by tourism, the pace of life is slow here. Laze away the day watching the boats bob into the postcard-pretty bay of Vourkari from your private shady balcony – especially magical at sunset. Flip-flop down to the local village tavernas and meet the locals. Or head out to discover the fine sandy shores and oak forests that make this island so enchanting. What's more, with so much reachable on foot, there's no need for a car here.

One of the Cyclades' hidden gems, the island of Kea invites guests to experience a slice of secluded heaven, as there are very few hotels here, meaning if you're lucky enough to visit – you'll get to stay in a stone-clad private villa like this one. 

Take in breathtaking sea views overlooking the harbour and Bay of Vourkari. Here you can watch the boats bobbing along and the sparkling waters glistening amid the shimmering sun. With an open-concept living area that extends onto the expansive stone terrace, you needn't miss out on the sunshine and serene views for long as you can dine, relax and cook inside and outside at this villa. 

Catch the early morning sunrise from the comfort of your bed with a coffee in hand, and sip cocktails as the firey hues light up the sky in orange and pink come evening. When you're not at the beach or exploring the island's natural beauty, you'll have a private swimming pool from which you can spend the afternoons floating around with a perfect view of the seascape. 





Harbouring Love 

Situated within a complex of six houses, this two-bedroom apartment on the Greek island of Kea is both cute and compact. Although small, this split-level home features a covered alfresco dining terrace and a top-floor balcony from which to enjoy uninterrupted sea views. Location-wise it’s a mere 100m from Gialiskari’s stunning sandy beach and only a short walk from Vourkari’s picturesque harbour awash with cafes, restaurants, boutiques and bars.

Sun Dazed

Rooftop Terrace

Courtyard

On the island of Kea, on an amphitheatrical plot of land, you will find this home perched above the protected bay of Vourkari, offering incredible panoramic views of the Aegean sea and the bay below. What’s more, all the interior spaces here have also been well-designed to allow you to enjoy the magnificent views almost from the moment you wake up.

The yachting Marina of Vourkari is just a five-minute drive away, where you can experience some of the best seaside restaurants and bars. While the nearest sandy beach of Yaliskari is roughly 1.5km away from your door.

When you’re not exploring the surrounding areas, enjoy relaxing days lounging in the Greek sunshine before slipping into the cool water of the swimming pool with its unobstructed views of the amazing waters and bay that are the crowning glory of the landscape. 

The large main terrace here offers a pergola-covered seating and dining area, which creates the ideal spot for quiet reading in the shade or alfresco dining overlooking the ocean as the sun sets and sends the vistas golden. So, fire up the barbecue and cook some delicious souvlaki, and then settle down for a meal overlooking the swimming pool and sea beyond.

From its carefully curated interiors to its terrace geared up for yoga sessions at sunrise and cocktails at twilight, this stylish villa ticks all of our boxes for an unforgettable stay on the island of Kea. We loved the white and welcoming living space filled with retro-inspired furnishings and picture-perfect views of Vourkari Bay. Step outside for a spot of breakfast before jumping into your private pool or stealing a quiet moment for yourself in the charming chapel. When lunchtime rolls around, chop and grill and season and sip with your loved ones in the summer kitchen. 

If you’re itching to explore, the nearest beach is only a fifteen-minute walk away. Or, after an exciting diving lesson at the Suba Diving Club (just a five-minute walk from your doorstep) amble through Vourkari village, home to indie boutiques and a gallery filled with local art.

Self Check-in / Check-out

Welcome Hamper

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.

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

Sun Umbrellas

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. 

Island High

Umbrellas

Located in Kea, this villa offers a slower pace of life than some of Greece’s more famous islands. With plenty of quiet beaches to choose from, you’ll be able to explore sandy shores each day, but if you’d rather relax at home there are a number of outdoor spots from which to soak up incredible ocean views (our favourite being the private pool). Another highlight is the small guest house with a double and a single bed, which is perfect for a small family looking for a little extra privacy. 

A Spot of Serenity 

Satellite / Cable TV

Perched upon the hills on the coast of Kea, overlooking the sparkling Aegean sea lies this beautiful villa. With its own private pool, dining area for alfresco meals under the sun, and an outdoor shower for rinsing off after going for a swim, you'll have everything you need for a simple yet luxurious stay. Relax on one of the sun loungers and work on your tan under the hot sun, then prepare some good Greek food in the fully-equipped kitchen and dine outdoors as the sun sets over the ocean. It's the picture-perfect backdrop to a perfect day.

If you're looking to explore, look no further – the island of Kea is filled with beautiful scenery and little towns filled with friendly people, good cuisine and little shops that sell everything you might need during your holiday. You'll be just outside the town of Korissia, which is famous for its traditional taverns, wonderful local restaurants and vivid nightlight, so whether you're looking to discover the traditions of the island and meet the locals, or whether you're looking for something a little more upbeat, there will be something perfect for you. Or take the hour journey to Lavrio for a day trip to the city of Athens, where you can enjoy countless iconic landmarks, shops and tourist experiences. You don't have to worry about missing out on the sights just because you're not in the central city, but you also don't have to worry about falling into a tourist trap in this private little patch of paradise, either.

Saccharine Sunset

Tucked away on the island of Kea, this villa is one of three properties on the complex, located in the area of Akrotiri Otzia. Surrounded by serene natural beauty and an infinity of blue, from here, you'll get to lap up sparkling sea views from the moment you arrive. 

The picturesque terrace boasts a private swimming pool, plenty of comfy seating areas, sun loungers and a grand alfresco dining area under a shaded pergola. Meanwhile, the villa's interiors nod to the harmonious white and blue colour palette often seen in the Cyclades. In addition, natural materials such as stone and wood create a laid-back ambience offering a constant reminder of your stunning Greek island location. 

With direct access to the sea (if you follow the stairs leading to a small bay with pebbles), you'll have the sun, sea and oh-so-majestic views at your fingertips here. And with the local restaurants less than a ten-minute drive away, you'll have the option to dine by the beach when you don't feel like cooking at the villa.

Parking On Premises

Nestled on a hill with views across the port of Kea, this sleek, contemporary villa is made for outdoor living. With panoramic sea views, whether you’re enjoying some respite from the Greek sun with a refreshing swim in the infinity pool, or simply soaking up the rays from the day bed, you’ll feel utterly content. When dinnertime rolls around, you can choose to rustle up a bite to eat in the modern, well-equipped kitchen, or light the stone barbecue to grill up a storm. 

However you choose to cook, there’s only one option as far as we’re concerned when it comes to dining – alfresco, of course. Settle down on the covered terrace to enjoy your meal over quiet conversation. As the sun starts to sink in the sky, uncork a bottle of bubbles and charge your glasses. With the sky dancing through an array of colours before the sun finally sinks into the sea, raise a toast to creating unforgettable memories with your loved ones. 

Sunset Delight

Rain Shower

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

Located on the peaceful island of Kea – one of the closest to the coastal capital of Athens, this villa is made up of two properties and perfect for a fuss-free stay. Secluded on 4,000 square metres of land, this charming hillside home has spectacular views of the surrounding islands and Aegean Sea – best enjoyed from the multiple dining areas. It makes a fantastic base for a group of family or friends – spread over two properties with their own kitchen and living areas. Looking for the nearest beach? Gialiskari and Otzia are just a five-minute drive away while the picturesque marina of Vourkari is 1.5 kilometres from the home.

This grand villa on the island of Kea makes for a luxurious retreat for families and groups of friends. The clever design ensures that you can both enjoy private moments and communal get-togethers, be it inside or in the generous outdoor areas. Speaking of the outdoors, you could hardly ask for a better setup – between the saltwater infinity pool, comfy loungers, daybeds and sofas and an outdoor cinema, this place truly has you covered. You’ll also have private access to the beach here, making this gem a real treat. Note that a car is recommended here if you’d like to explore the island and reach the neighbouring towns of Korisia and Vourkari. 

Twilight In Paradise

Beach Essentials

Located atop a rocky bar of Koundouros, this home is made up of independent lower and upper levels, each with their own kitchen and living areas. Outside, the terrace is well-equipped for soaking up the sun or alfresco dining, with lovely sea views and private sea access on the rock platforms below. Things might be a bit of a squeeze at full capacity, so you'll want to pack light. A ten-minute walk will bring you to the nearest sandy beaches of Koundouros, and you'll find beach bars, tavernas and water sports.

Prepare to be left jaw-dropped by the infinite blue views here. With a panoramic terrace offering 180-degree vistas overlooking the sparkling seascape – this villa in Kea invites guests to indulge in its utterly blissful setting equipped with an array of home luxuries. 

Located in the area of Mellisaki, besides the sea views, the villa sets the scene for an experience typical of the Cyclades. White-washed stone walls, exposed wooden beams, and a beachy aesthetic remind you of your gorgeous location, all while encouraging you to kick back, relax and reset in paradise. 

With an outdoor kitchen, bar, dining area and comfy lounge seating – catch the glorious sunset each evening with a refreshing cocktail. Wherever your chosen perch is, it's safe to say you'll be left awe-inspired as the sun paints the sky with fiery hues of pink and orange. Nearby, you'll find Korissia and Vourkari ports, with an array of shops, tavernas and eateries to explore, just a short drive away. Oh, and did we mention the local beaches of Kea? The island has 45 beaches, many of which are accessible exclusively by boat. Heaven. 





Sunset Glory 

Board Games

Sitting close to the northern tip of the isle of Kea, it's hard to imagine a more peaceful location for a Greek getaway. Indeed, you'll never tire of the views of the Ionian Sea enjoyed from the home's outdoor space, which also features a swimming pool and lots of space for alfresco dinners. The living quarters quite sensibly don't try to compete with these wonderful surroundings and are simple in style. The fact that there are two separate guest houses on the site might be handy for separate families or large friendship groups paying a visit, as well.

Step through an archway of silver-sheened olive trees and vine leaves to reach this peaceful home on the unspoiled island of Kea. Perched above the Panagia Kastriani Monastery, the five-bedroom villa enjoys exquisite views of the ancient structure and the hazy sea beyond.

You'll feel the revitalising embrace of this home as soon as you enter – the calming palette of off-white and sage green compliments rather than competes with the beautiful surroundings. Characterful furniture sets the space apart (we're looking at the artist's easel, in particular), while painted wooden beams nod to traditional Grecian homes.

The island's main town, Ioulida, is a short drive away. Here, you'll find a sprinkle of colourful buildings clustered on the side of a hill. Make sure you visit the Lion of Kea, an archaic sculpture that's shrouded in mystery. The smiling animal is thought to make reference to Kea's mythology, but its exact meaning and creator remain unknown.

Outdoor Kitchen

Located on the island of Kea, this villa promises a relaxing escape away from Greece's tourist hubs. With the island's forty-five beaches to choose from, you'll be able to explore a new stretch of sand each day. But, if you don't want to stray too far from home, there are steps leading straight into the Aegean Sea in the garden – how's that for seafront? The whole place was designed with alfresco living (and the views) in mind, so you’ll find several serene spots to soak up the incredible scenery – our favourite being the saltwater infinity pool. There's also a small guest house with single beds, which is a good option for teenagers craving their own space.

Lion of Kea

Two families travelling together or a big group of friends can make the most of this home comprising two separate villas. It’s up in the hills, just outside of Kea’s capital town Ioulis so you can reach the supermarket and charming restaurants in less than ten minutes on foot. Up here, you’ve got a great view, taking in the rolling hills of Kea, topped with ancient white chapels, all the way to the sea. The group can spread out across two villas, each with its own kitchen, breezy living room and dining areas and come together in the outside space.

A rectangle of turquoise swimming pool provides an inviting spot to cool off in the heat of the day. Alfresco dining comes courtesy of deck-chair style seating around a wooden table, shaded by a pergola. Loungers on the beautiful stone patio look out over hilltops to the sparkling sea, and views don’t get much better than from the covered rooftop terrace. Days can be spent playing boules in the sunshine or perhaps a friendly game of basketball on the court. Then there are the sunsets, simply stunning from the cool waters of the infinity-edge pool.

Sundowners By The Sea

Looking for something a little different and off-the-beaten-track for your next escape to the sunshine? Then the gorgeous Greek Island of Kea might just be the place for you. 

Offering beautiful beaches by the doze, quaint and quintessentially Greek towns and villages bursting with idyllic charm, as well as some stunning, unspoiled countryside, this often-overlooked gem is a great choice for family holidays, friends' getaways, and romantic retreats. This striking holiday villa set on a large plot of land enjoys a fantastic location just two minutes' drive away from the bustling Vourkari Marina – one of the most salubrious spots on the island that houses a variety of restaurants serving fresh seafood, lively cafes and bars as well as a handful of shops. 

The home itself is bright and inviting, offering loads of cosy seating areas in which you can park yourself with a good book and an even better wine for an hour or two, simply soaking up the feeling of tranquillity and holiday bliss as the waves lap against the shores below. Of course, then there is also that fabulous outdoor area, where you will find the swimming pool with a fantastic view of the enchanting waters of the Aegean. We especially love the furnished balcony overlooking the water and can just imagine sitting there as the sun goes down, sipping a cool glass of a classic summertime cocktail. ‘Yamas’ to that.

A Drop in the Aegean

Bathrobes

Baby Bath

Watch the sky change colours at this beautifully appointed villa overlooking the Aegean Sea. It combines traditional Cycladic architecture – most notably the stone walls and whitewashed exterior – with sleek and modern touches throughout the home. We particularly like the stylish chill-out and lounge spaces that simply call out for entertaining friendly get-togethers and family reunions. 

Encouraging indoor-outdoor living, there's an incredible sense of openness throughout the communal areas of the home when the balcony and patio doors are thrown open, inviting the calm sea breeze to enter in. We love the glossy furnishings, grey and blue colour palette and nautical decorative details that create a sophisticated yet light and beachy feel to the villa.

While we adore the bright and airy interiors, we reckon you'll be spending most of your time lazing the hours away outside on the expansive terrace, complete with a summer kitchen, sun loungers and enough comfortable seating for the entire group. Spend hot afternoons swimming in the pool and enjoying alfresco meals under the shaded pergola. Days end with a cocktail in the comfort of a hanging egg chair, watching the sunset over this achingly picturesque landscape. 

After a great night's sleep in the quiet bedrooms and waking up to soothing sea views for as far as the eye can see, pack your seaside essentials and take the five-minute drive to Otzais Beach. Stretch out on the soft sand before finding a seafront taverna to whet your appetite. 

Just After Sunset

With the deep blue Aegean on the horizon and the sun shining brightly overhead, is there a better way to holiday than simply basking in the glory of it all from a comfortable position? If that’s your idea of rest and relaxation, too, then watch out, you might fall head-over-heels in love with this villa on the island of Kea.

Making a beautiful first impression with its Cycladic stone design, the home's interior relies heavily on crisp whites, seaside blues and a maritime theme that invigorates the space. Pair that with a minimal approach and ample lighting and you have a cosy space in which to read Homer’s Hymns on the sofa. Pad across the cool tiles whenever your coffee needs topping up and start every day in the kitchenette by preparing a light bite for everyone to enjoy alfresco.

Of course, you’ll also find a number of restaurants and tavernas in Korissia – a short drive away – for when you’re not in the mood to cook. When you aren't admiring the views from the swimming pool, you might explore the coast by visiting any of the beaches within driving distance, starting with Paralia Xila.

Saltbreeze Villa

Where to start with this truly spectacular, effortlessly elegant home? From its timeless and classically beautiful interiors, to the stunning outdoor areas which really maximise the amazing view, this home certainly does have it all – and we think it offers something extra special for your next event or simply an unforgettable escape to the Greek sunshine. 

Located on the gorgeous Greek Island of Kea, one of the few remaining hidden gems of the Aegean, this expansive home sits on a large plot, creating a sense of space as well as privacy and uninterrupted tranquillity. Just a short walk from the nearest beach, during your stay in this lovely home you can look forward to long, sun-soaked days down by the sea or around the pool (depending on what you fancy that day) – days that then melt into balmy evenings. 

Choose from a number of inviting outdoor seating areas, finding your favourite spot in which to sit back, relax, and watch the sun dip toward the horizon with a glass of something refreshing in hand. As night rolls in and bellies begin rumbling, take the time to pamper yourself in one of the luxurious-feeling bathrooms, before heading off into the nearby town (just a two-minute drive away) to pick from the variety of authentic eateries serving up wonderfully fresh local specialties and enjoy an evening of holiday bliss.

Studying the Classics

Welcome to Greece's best-kept secret. Located on the secluded island of Kea, this traditional stone villa has three levels plus a separate guest house, offering plenty of space and privacy. The terrace outside offers a salt-water pool perfect for hot afternoons at home, but it’s the location that makes this home a real gem. Just 60 metres away you’ll find a small bay with a diving platform – perfect for exploring the crystal clear waters the country is famed for. 

Paradise Pools

With its unfussy interiors, dusk-to-dawn views of the Aegean Sea and laidback feel, this carefully considered home guarantees a blissful stay in Kea’s untouched countryside. Days begin on the terrace, cup of coffee in hand, watching the sunrise over the craggy landscape. After a traditional Greek breakfast and a game of Pétanque, peruse the bookshelves in the Cycladic-inspired living space and find a shady nook to get lost in a paperback.

Splash about in the glittering pool or lie back on a lounger and soak up the golden sunshine. If exploring is on the agenda, take the short drive to Coressia and watch the boats to and fro from the port. Devour stuffed vine leaves in waterside tavernas before strolling along the soft sands of Gialiskari Beach. When the afternoon draws to a close, head home to make lasting memories with your loved ones in the glow of the sunset.

Nestled on the quiet island of Kea, this secluded villa invites a large family or group of friends to enjoy Greek island life in utter luxury. Its best highlight rests outside, with stunning sea views from a large terrace (particularly at sunset). And with a private swimming pool, alfresco pergola dining area, terrace bar and an on-site private basketball court – you'll feel like you've landed on your own private resort here. The villa's interior is just as inviting, as nautical designs nod to its beachside location and a games room featuring a billiards table, a ping pong table and table football for times when you prefer to socialise out of the sun. 





Canvas Sunset 

Washed in white with beautiful, rich wood tones running throughout, this quaint villa on the island of Kea welcomes you in with open arms. The charming courtyard is just the spot to settle down under the shade of a tree with a good book and a glass of wine to while away a few hours. When you start to feel peckish, fire up the barbecue and get grilling. As the delicious aroma of food fills the air, gather with your loved ones around the table for an alfresco meal under the Greek sun.

Locally, you can enjoy the beautiful beach of Spathi, a short eight-minute drive away, or if you fancy a stroll around the island’s main town of Ioulida, you can reach it in around ten minutes by car. When your exploring is over for the day, your villa will be ready for you to return home, providing the most tranquil backdrop to your Greek adventure. 

Rustic Glow

If you love to be close to the beach, this villa is for you. On the pretty island of Kea, this home is set over the sandy beach of Xyla (the views from the pool are amazing), which can be reached in just five minutes on foot. The closest island to Athens, ferries back and forth are frequent so you can enjoy some day trips to the capital. Closer to home, the port of Kea is a 10-minute drive away, where you’ll find various shops and bakeries. 

The Beach Below

On Greece's beautiful island of Kea, this villa's private pool and outdoor seating are perfectly placed to enjoy sunset views and the endless Aegean Sea. The interior is minimal and coastal and the location is peaceful, making it a great choice for families or couples looking for romance. While the nearest beach is just 1km away, we recommend having a car here for getting the most out of this beautiful location and exploring Korissa's famous taverns and fantastic local restaurants.

A Fresh Approach

This stunning villa is tucked away on one of the lesser-known Cycladic islands of Kea. It consists of a main house with two separate guest suites, each with their own en-suite and private entrance. You have access to a private bay here and there’s even a helicopter pad on the grounds. Some rooms could do with a lick of paint but it’s really all about the exterior here, with the saltwater pool and terraces being the highlights. And who wouldn’t want to wake up to views like this every morning?


Salt On Your Skin

Perched on the hillside on the island of Kea, this villa’s remote location and panoramic sea view instantly caught our eye. Located up a dirt road, the local stone villa blends in with the rugged surrounds – ideal for those seeking some privacy. Curated with outdoor living in mind, you’ll be able to relax in the hot sun with the infinity pool, terrace and an outdoor dining area with barbecue for evening meals. Just a short walk and you’ll find the sandy beach of Xyla. A ten-minute drive from the port, you can catch one of the ferries to Athen’s and explore further afield. 

Into The Aegean 

With its honey-coloured exterior and stunning views of Cape Sounion, this villa in the heart of Kea is an excellent spot to recharge. The sun-dappled terrace calls for refreshing swims in the private pool, alfresco dinners prepared on the barbecue and lazy catnaps on the lounge chairs. You can play basketball on the court if you're feeling active or page through a book underneath the shade of the oak tree when you're in the mood to unwind. Come evening, head up to the balcony with a glass of wine and drink in the picture-perfect sunsets over the water – you won't be able to look away.

Inside, you'll find a bright, well-arranged living area perfect for relaxing. We love how colourful it is – picture rainbow-hued chairs around the dining table, bold artwork and illustrations on the white-washed walls and traditional blue pottery arranged on every surface. The kitchen is fit for rustling up tasty meals, the office is perfect for working from home and three bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms ensure that everyone will have their own space.

When you fancy a day out, Ioulis (the island's capital) is just 2km away. Or for a day at the beach, it's a ten to fifteen-minute drive.

If a panoramic view of the ocean is what you’re after for a summer vacation, then this villa on the small, Greek island of Kea is probably the ideal spot for you. The home itself has been finished with a luxurious touch and although modern, definitely pays homage to the Cycladic design Greece is known for. Split across three levels, you’ll continuously discover another nook to claim as your own as you unwind in whatever way you see fit. We recommend afternoon naps with balcony doors and window agape, reading curled up on the sofa, putting together a meze platter in the generous kitchen, or making full use of the gym and spa area to burn off excess energy and rejuvenate. With the sunken jacuzzi situated right under a skylight, we recommend tipping your head back in the glow of the sun as you unwind with the jets turned on. 

Outside, where the real magic happens, we recommend long lazy days spent sunbathing on the floating beds. Honour Oceanus, the Titan of old, with a dip in the cool waters, and gaze out over the impressive view. Nap in the hammocks, sink into the beanbags, and when lunchtime rolls around, fire up the grill for a feast. Dine alfresco and take full advantage of the very unique sunken seating area right in the pool – enjoy a glass of wine from there as you dip a hand into the water next to you.

Enjoy the tranquillity and recharge, and when you’re ready, explore the beaches of Kea and track down a taverna for an authentic meal.

Ode to Oceanus

Feel the warm breeze brush your skin as you wake up here each morning with your morning coffee before endless blue views across the Aegean Sea. Heaven. We think it's pretty safe to say you'll want to spend much of your time here, out on the terrace, lapping up the vistas. And with an array of fabulous amenities to enjoy while doing so, you'll feel like you've landed at your own private resort. 

There's a private swimming pool, a shaded pergola with lounge seating and an alfresco dining area, plenty of poolside sun loungers and deck chairs positioned in prime view of the glistening seafront. Then, head down the steps for direct access to the sea, where you can enjoy open-water swimming when the current is calm.
