A ground-floor apartment in a small, exclusive villa complex of just four homes, this colourful place read all the rule books about Greek all-white interiors – and then tore them up. Definitely not one for fans of minimalism, its traditional interior features a fireplace and tiled floors, while its walls, kitchen units, doors and window frames are all painted in a rainbow of different colours and paint effects – an artist's paradise. There's a fabulous balcony and terrace that wraps around the home, offering peaceful spots to sit and gaze out to sea, a dining table well screened from any neighbours with tropical planting and, of course, your own private pool. And the location of this charming place couldn't be much better. Set on a lush, green hillside in a quiet area near Argasi, the nearest beach, Kaminia, is just a walk away, and several others – including Porto Zoro and Banana – are within a few minutes drive. Plus there are all the shops and restaurants you could need in Argasi and nearby Vasilikos.
