This dazzling white, contemporary villa is just the ticket if you're looking for a seaside escape. Nestled in the popular family-friendly resort of Kalamaki, its sandy shores, calm, shallow waters, and beachfront tavernas are just a five-minute stroll away. But there's more to this place than just sun, sea, and sand. The wander-worthy old Venetian port quarter of Chania, just a ten-minute drive, is an afternoon well spent. Or take off to one of the traditional villages in the Messara Plain, just a few minutes drive, for a slice of authentic Cretan life. Back at home, this immaculate villa makes for easy, breezy seaside living. The fresh and uplifting bedrooms with private balconies and en-suite bathrooms are spread out across three floors - perfect for friends or family looking for a little extra privacy. When it's time to get together, spill out into the light-filled living space or basement games room to crash out with a movie. You could squeeze in a workout in the dedicated gym room too. But when the sun shines, the private pool and terrace outside might just be too inviting. As will those top-floor balconies with views of the glistening sea.
