Perfect for a romantic break away from it all, this contemporary villa provides everything you need for a beachside retreat for two. Spend your days lounging poolside, sharing a bottle of local Sitia wine with your loved one and soaking up the Greek sun. If the heat becomes a little too much to bear, don’t worry, you can sink into the cool waters of the private pool before settling down under the shade of the pergola for a little alfresco lunch. With the glistening blue sea views and the sizzle of the barbecue as you grill up a delicious snack, you’ll feel completely content. If the call of the sea is too difficult to ignore, slip your feet into your flip flops and amble down to Kouremenos beach where you can while away the hours in this unspoilt piece of paradise. After a day spent recharging your batteries, we’d recommend walking to one of the nearby tavernas to indulge in a spot of local cuisine. With a happy tummy full of good food, head home and snuggle up on the corner sofa for a quiet movie night. With exposed stone and comfortable furnishings, this is such a homely, cosy place to enjoy an evening, guaranteed to become the backdrop to a wonderful Greek coastal stay.
