Infinity pool with sunset views, private cinema room, and complete hillside seclusion – this is Crete at its most polished. Set above the bay in Kokkino Chorio, this home pairs sharp modern design with wide-open panoramas across Chania Bay. Floor-to-ceiling glass floods the open-plan living space with light, drawing your eye straight to the sea. Three en-suite double bedrooms each offer sensational views, while a separate cinema room (with sofa bed) offers space for movie nights or additional guests. Outside, the infinity pool appears to spill into the horizon, framed by loungers, multiple terraces and a fully equipped BBQ dining area. Beaches and traditional villages are just a short drive away, though with views like these, staying put is tempting.
