Spinalonga Villas 3

Description

Upon arriving at Spinalonga Villas 3, guests would be forgiven for thinking they had stepped into the pages of a glossy travel magazine; greeted with a mirage of opulence, grandeur and designer verve, this majestic abode blends the best of a coastal retreat and a five-star get-away.

Airy accommodation cossets 10 guests in uber-luxe surroundings, with touches of sheer decadence, including the bubbling jacuzzi, premium hotel-grade services, lavish interiors and sweeping private drive set within its own exclusive estate.

Set on the seafront, with a private beach just a stroll away, this chic retreat boasts a glittering private pool of stunning proportions, framed by elegant day beds, parasols and sleek terrace. Finessed with architectural panache, this elegant dwelling does outdoor living to perfection: romantic balconies with billowing draped curtains and chic cloistered dining verandas. The gardens feature manicured green lawns framed by luscious foliage, vivid flowering plants, while sumptuous al fresco meals can be enjoyed in the cool breezes of the dining veranda.

Spinalonga Villas 3 blends the best of local charm and authentic Crete style, local natural stone, terracotta tiles and airy indoor-outdoor living, while the cutting edge quality of fittings and finishes display contemporary luxe at its finest. This Mediterranean idyll offers the ultimate haven of style, tranquillity and luxury, within an authentically Cretian environment.

Each of the five bedrooms has abundant natural daylight, individual character and flair, accents of colour and verve, within a serenely tranquil setting. Imagine wandering out to the balcony for a morning coffee, or wandering down to the seafront to enjoy the sparkling clear waters for a refreshing morning swim.

Glossy, open-plan living spaces feature every contemporary convenience along with exposed timber beams, an ambient fireplace, exposed stonework and creamy upholstery. With its own wine cellar, bar and outdoor lounge, this home sets the scene for rocking pool parties, sparkling entertainment and lavish Mediterranean living at its finest.

#### Location
Spinalonga Villas 3 is set in a wonderful spot that is just the right balance between remote and populated, on the craggy northern coast of Crete, in the Elounda region.

Elounda features both a small town, as well as being the same for the surrounding municipality. Elounda village, once a picturesque fishing village in the lovely Mirabello Bay, is today a stylish holiday destination, offering just enough life for a sense of local flavour, yet not so much it becomes saturated with tourists. It offers a spectacular coastline, shaded crystal caves and clear waters. Many of the little surrounding villages are worth visiting: Mavrikiano, Plaka, Skisma, offering a trip inland through the mountains and a window into traditional Crete life.

Spinalonga is a small island just off the coast, that offers intriguing history and untouched local life. This region is known for its rich archaeological past, as well as its intriguing military history (it was a naturally well-placed defence point, jutting out as a rocky islet.)

Popular with royals, celebrities and dignitaries, this region is rich with activity, from
golfing to sailing and yachting, luxury spas and an array of blue flag beaches: a golden slice of Mediterranean paradise that is hard to beat.

Around the Elounda region, guests can spend days exploring unknown pretty beaches, hidden coves and caves, or jump on a boat to visit the island of Spinalonga. The peninsula of Kolokitha is worth a stroll along, while the two most important archaeological sites of Cretan history are a must-see: the relics of the ancient sunken city of Olous and the Venetian fortress on the island of Spinalonga.
