With stunning sea views, a gorgeous swimming pool and a bubbling hot tub, this villa has everything you could want from a Greek getaway with family and friends. The interior offers guests barefoot luxury at its finest, with close attention to detail to create a stylish and relaxing home from home. White walls provide a blank canvas to eye-catching artwork, elegant wooden furniture and vibrant window blinds in the bedrooms. In addition, practically every room in the villa enjoys direct access to the outdoors – whether it's the poolside patio on the ground floor or private terraces on the upper level – creating a seamless indoor-outdoor experience. Step through the sliding glass doors, and you'll discover the outdoor areas have been given the same level of care as inside, which makes them a real jewel in the crown of this home. Not only is there the aforementioned infinity pool and hot tub for the adults, but you'll also find a separate children's pool, chic sun loungers and teak-framed furniture to sink into. If you can tear your eyes away from the views out over Souda Bay, the nearby village of Kokkino Chorio has a glass blowing factory where you can... watch masters at work. Alternatively, head west along the coast to the beautiful Venetian port town of Chania, a little over thirty kilometres away, before continuing on to some of the island's most stunning beaches, including Falassarna and Elafonisi – both within day-trip distance.
