Villa Kea is a very private recently built villa situated in the most valued area of the Island overlooking the sheltered and cultured harbor of Vourkari. It has five bedrooms and sleeps 5-7 adults, or 8 of families with 2 children. The small traditional port of Vourkari is a call for yachts with a vibrant selection of tavernas, shops, art galleries, and bars within walking distance. The Villa has been lovingly constructed in a traditional Cycladic style and is built on 3 levels using natural materials. It has stunning sea views from the large wraparound terraces that surround the villa. The villa is ideal for families and can accommodate 5 to 8 people when there are at least 2 children. It has five air-conditioned bedrooms; three bathrooms, a well-equipped kitchen and a BBQ grill outside in the yard. There are new appliances, TV, DVD, Wi-Fi, and a laundry room with a new washing machine and a drier. The guest suite is on the top floor that includes two adjacent bedrooms with a queen size bed, a pull out queen size sofa that can comfortably accommodate two young children, and an en suite bathroom. Three steps below is the second level, an open-plan that comprises the lounge area, separate dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen.
Vourkari, Kea: The little harbor of Vourkari is a 10 – 15-minute walk from the house and a delightful place popular with the yachting crowd. Although there is no beach in Vourkari itself, the lovely sandy beach at Yialiskari with its recommended beach taverna is less than a 15-minute walk away. Vourkari has quite a buzzy nightlife and there are several good tavernas and a couple of trendy bars. There is also a mini-market and a couple of arts and crafts shops.
Otzias Bay, Korissia, Ioulis: Otzias Bay and Korissia are only a ten minute drive from the house (there is a local bus service) and the pretty island capital Ioulis is a further 15 minutes up the mountain (there is a local bus service). The Otzias Bay has a long stretched sandy beach with a lagoon section that makes it ideal for swimming for families with small children. Unlike others, Kea remains a quaint, low profile, rugged island, with few tourists, and an abundance of pristine beaches, beautiful blue-green waters, and ancient cobblestone marked footpaths, bird-watching nature reserves, few hotels and mostly, privately owned houses. Seasonally or permanently, to relax and enjoy, Kea boasts known names of the Greek and international jet-set in business, law, science, and art, as it appeals to the discerning visitor who seeks tranquility, authenticity and a genuinely Aegean environment.
