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.
