Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

What this home doesn’t have, you don’t need. It’s an elegant and luxurious dream home, with access to a private bay. Will you spend your days swimming in the sea, or sailing around the coast? We love the outside space here – it’s a real idyll. You have a choice of two swimming pools, with a large infinity pool that’s excellent for swimming laps and splashing about with the little ones, and a smaller relaxation pool where you can stretch out in the shallows and feel the warmth of the sun on your skin as you float beneath a cloudless sky. When you’re not in the water, you can doze on sun loungers or take in the glorious view of the neighbouring islands of Paros and Naxos. There’s a wonderful outdoor dining area with a built-in barbecue – in the evening, why not grill some freshly caught seafood and enjoy an alfresco dinner under the stars? The villa is just as appealing inside, with chic decor and high-end finishes. You’ll find yourself relaxing the moment you arrive at this spectacular home.
