This quaint villa promises a quiet, homely retreat if you’re visiting the beautiful island of Kea. Inside, the home is simple and comfortable, with pops of colour scattered throughout, but the outdoor space really hits all the right notes for us. Wrapped in lush green gardens with an abundance of flowers, it’s such a tranquil spot – it’s not hard to imagine spending many hours out here, enjoying the Greek sun warming your skin as floral scents drift on the air around you. Mornings will be well spent with your hands wrapped around a mug of coffee, settled on a lounger as you soak up the rays and the sea vistas that stretch before you. With the private pool taking centre stage in the outdoor space, it won’t be long before you’re enticed into the refreshing water to swim a few lazy lengths. As one of the closest islands to Athens, if you’re not exploring Kea itself or enjoying a beach day, you can hop on a boat from Lavrio port and find yourself in the Greek capital in an hour. However you spend your days, this island gem is sure to capture a little piece of your soul.

About Kea
Considered by some as the gateway to the Cyclades, Kea is the closest inhabited island of this idyllic archipelago to Athens. Yet, it remains largely undiscovered. Those who stop by are treated to quiet sandy beaches on the crystal Aegean, a dramatically hilly landscape hiding quaint towns, and ancient archaeology. While some of the beaches have a scattering of loungers and umbrellas, the island is largely untouched by tourism so...
