In terms of luxurious living, this stunning home in Crete ticks every box. The villa is a feast for the eyes, with a kitchen that would look the part in a Nancy Myers movie, as well as a postcard-perfect exterior. The villa is just a ten-minute drive from Vamos, a traditional village with a great variety of tavernas, shops and cafes. If you need to feel the sea rush over your feet for it to feel like a holiday, drive just fifteen minutes to Paralia Kalives. Spend the day swimming in the clear sea and sunbathing before driving back to the villa to soak in the deep bathtub. The infinity pool is as inviting as they come, with a shallow end that’s perfect for reading a book in, or sipping a glass of wine as you watch the sun set. The pool is the focal point of the gorgeous terrace, which includes several different seating areas – whether you’re a sun-worshipper or prefer the shade, there’s a cosy corner you’ll appreciate. A large barbecue kitchen sits under the porch, with bar seating all around. It’s the perfect spot for a relaxed meal with friends, with drinks and conversation flowing. This... is the kind of holiday home you make lasting memories in.
