Villa GR5045

It combines elegance, peace, and seclusion in an ideal way.

An intimate setting in a prime location with views of the expansive bay and the azure Aegean.

The best kind of holiday for families is this one. See whether you can locate the decaying Venetian Castle on the island of Spinalonga, the setting for the bestselling book "The Island," from your private pool patio or bedroom.

This villa may be best described as sleek and gleaming.

The home is furnished by a designer in peaceful earth tones and draws inspiration from the styles of Greece, the Carpathians, and Syria.

It features hand-picked local art and hand-crafted wooden furniture.

Large windows and doors throughout the house give you a greater sense of space and light, allowing you to enjoy the panoramic sea views fully.

There are many seating options both inside and outside, and air conditioning is a given, making it ideal for when you need to escape the warm Mediterranean sun.

This villa includes a roomy, open-concept living, kitchen, dining area with comfortable couches and all the amenities you could need for a self-catering vacation.

Two queen and two twin beds make up the four chic en-suite bedrooms, which can accommodate eight people, and each has a marble bathroom.

A private swimming pool with loungers outside commands attention and gives the impression that it is about to overflow into the ocean.

There is also an outdoor dining area here, where you may enjoy a bottle of local wine while watching the sunset.

The property is located in a cosy area, giving you the best of both worlds. Yet, you have access to the resort facilities, including a supersized outdoor swimming pool, kid’s pool and a delicatessen mini market.

When you’d like to go exploring, the area’s best beaches are on your doorstep.

The villa is also close to the charming fishing villages of Plaka and Elounda.

At the latter, there’s a marina lined with cafes and tavernas, as well as markets and shops.

From here, you can hop on a boat to Spinalonga Island.

Prices charged include a half-board meal plan; for full-board prices, please ask our Concierge team.

Elounda is a picturesque coastal village on the Greek island of Crete.

It’s encompassed by picturesque hilly terrain and overlooks the shores of the curving Mirabello Bay.

With soft sandy beaches, quality local tavernas and a welcoming atmosphere, it’s a perfect place for couples or family-friendly holidays.

The main beach holds Blue Flag status and has clear and calm waters that are ideal for swimming.

Its sands are next to the promenade and the harbour so you can grab lunch during the day.

Tavernas, cafes and restaurants line the village’s boat-dotted marina, too.

Here, you can spend lazy afternoons watching boats bobbing in the water over a cooling iced coffee or try local Greek cuisine like mezes and grilled octopus.

Elounda also offers traditional markets, where you can pick everything from fresh fruit to local cheeses.

It’s a great chance to pick up some Greek delicacies for a picnic lunch on the beach.

A visit to Spinalonga Island is a must-do for fun day trips.

Although the island is now completely deserted, the crumbling ruins of the Venetian fortress still stand.

Boat trips leave for Spinalonga from Elounda harbour.

If you feel like exploring others further, Santorini is also only a short boat trip away.

You’ll find plenty of cafés and restaurants along the seafront.

Head into the capital, Fira, and wander the cobbled streets.

The beaches at Perissia and Kamari, which have also been awarded the Blue Flag, are also a must-visit.

Elounda Lagoon is a great place to go for more offshore adventures.

It boasts clear waters where you can spot shoals of shimmering fish and explore underwater wrecks –whether you’re an experienced diver or a laid-back snorkeller.
