Crete Paradise

  • 8 guests

  • 4 bedrooms

  • 3 bathrooms

  • sq/ft

Known for its ancient ruins and breathtaking beaches, the Greek island of Crete is ideal for anyone whose three favourite words are sun, sea, and sand. This particular home, however, takes seaside vacationing to a whole new level with stunning decor, luxurious touches, and an unbelievable outdoor area. Spend every single second in the pool admiring the view of the Mediterranean, or catch some rays in the sunlounger. Whilst the outdoor seating is ideal for alfresco dining – and the group can also come together around the barbecue to fire up a mediterranean grill when you’re not playing marco polo in the pool – the villa is made to also give everyone a bit of privacy. Perfectly split into two, so each group of four has their own sitting, dining, and sleeping areas, the home is perfect for a family reunion or a getaway for four couples. Enjoy the communal spaces like the gym, sauna, and the many nooks outside as a group and explore the cellar together to pick out a wine to accompany a meze platter. Venture to the beach, slip away for a few rounds of golf at the course – just over four miles away –...

About Crete

The biggest of Greece’s islands, Crete has thousands of years of history scattered across its wild hinterland, and a coast dotted with secluded bays.
