This immaculate waterfront villa is sweet like honey. Natural in every way, the decor has a bohemian charm – calming and revitalising. Thoughtfully designed with style, whether you're relaxing with a cocktail or indulging in dinner alfresco, the ambience is magical. With comfort at its core, soft furnishings and beanbags are just some of the ways to feel your worries melt away. Spectacular views over the Mediterranean Sea are easy on the eye – much like the landscaped gardens and serene infinity pool. With several terrace areas, romantic sundowners are a must. An array of cafes, vibrant bars and tavernas are within walking distance so slip on your sandals and enjoy a casual bite to eat, or perhaps a moonlit stroll across the beach will tickle your fancy as the rays bounce off the water. Nestled in delightful Mochlos, an undiscovered slice of Crete, this chic home in its picture-perfect location will leave an imprint on your heart long after you’ve returned home.
