Surrounded by hills, this villa doesn’t just benefit from a gorgeous greenscape, but its location also puts it close enough to the coast that you can benefit from breathtaking ocean views. We wouldn’t blame you if you choose to sit out on the balcony every morning just so you’re able to admire them as you nurse your first cup of coffee of the day. When hunger calls you back inside, prepare a quick breakfast in the well-equipped kitchen and dine alfresco on the terrace. After that, you can either stay poolside all day or head out to explore. Kalyvaki beach is only a short drive away and the soft sand and calm, clear waters would be worth any trip. You can also make your way to Almiros-See to enjoy the natural beauty of the hiking area up close or make your way to the Elephant Cave. Return home in time to watch the sunset from the terrace whilst you fire up the grill for dinner. Enjoy evening laps in the swimming pool, socialise under the stars, and stay up late to watch movies with drinks and nibbles.
