Villa GR5042

It is filled with designer flair and has terrific outdoor living potential.

This is a romantic idyll, a tranquil haven of quality and style, with breathtaking sea views across to the mysterious and historically significant island of Spinalonga.

It is constructed in the local style, with local stonework, an elegant, secluded balcony, a lovely pergola, and traditional terracotta tiles.

Finessed with the ultimate stylish outdoor living, sleek infinity pool and verdant foliage, fragrant plants, indulgent day beds and elegant parasols, this Mediterranean gem is a jewel in the crown - sparkling seas, stunning coastline, access to local life and craggy hills.

Visitors could be excused for thinking they had entered the glossy pages of an interior magazine upon entering.

The open plan living concept is executed throughout the spacious rooms, which feature exposed stonework, high ceilings, avant-garde artwork for a splash of colour, and chic accents of teal offset by natural timbers.

Every room in this house exhibits a designer's touch, from the unique and daring colour schemes to the subtle luxury and stylish designer verve, which range from glossy olive greens in the kitchen to azure blues and steely greys.

This achingly cool home is perfect for partying, rocking pool parties, or laid-back picnics on warm evenings overlooking the bay. However, it is neither overly glamorous nor showy.

Serene accommodation cossets ten guests in uber-luxe surroundings, with touches of sheer decadence, including the free-standing bathtubs, stunning walk-in showers and simple yet luxurious bedrooms, finished with lavish fabrics and unusual artefacts brimming with character and style.

The facility combines the best of local charm and traditional Crete flair in a fully serviced environment, offering guests a variety of outside places for morning coffee or late beverages.

This residence offers a memorable escape on a tiny patch of Mediterranean paradise. It is distinctive, sleek, modern, and breathtakingly natural.

The property is nestled in a beautiful spot that strikes just the right balance between remote and populated, on the craggy northern coast of Crete, in the beautiful Elounda region.

Elounda is a well-heeled holiday destination with a smattering of fishing villages, local-style tavernas and a few luxurious spa retreats.

Although Elounda village was formerly a pretty fishing village overlooking the wonderful Mirabello Bay, it is today a stylish holiday destination, attracting royals, celebrities and dignitaries.

Not overly crowded with tourists, it brims with local flavour, offering a spectacular coastline and clear waters. In addition, many of the little surrounding villages are worth visiting: Mavrikiano, Plaka, and Skisma offer a trip inland through the mountains and a window into traditional Crete life, while the archaeological past of the region is intriguing.

Around the Elounda region, guests can spend days exploring the unknown, pretty beaches, hidden coves and caves, or jump on a boat to visit the island of Spinalonga or enjoy an indulgent day at one of the region’s well-heeled spa resorts.

The peninsula of Kolokitha offers magnificent strolls, while the two most important archaeological sites of Cretan history are unmissable in the region.

These are the relics of the ancient sunken city of Olous and the Venetian fortress on the island of Spinalonga.
