To the Power of Two

What you're getting at this address on Ano Koufonissi isn't just a pair of villas but a whole holiday complex in its own right. Spread across one-and-a-half acres on a hilltop, there's a huge amount to do on the grounds, whether that's playing football or volleyball on the courts, messing about on the playground, or splashing about in the pool, which has both a children's section and a hydromassage area.

When you want to take it easy, there are plenty of covered terraces and an outdoor kitchen on which to grill up dinner. If that still sounds a little too strenuous, you can head inside and make the most of the sauna, hammam and Jacuzzi. Down in the basement, there's even a gym and a ping-pong table.

All this and we've barely mentioned the homes themselves. Typically Cycladic in style, they're a charming mix of stark white walls and arched doorways, with a traditional fireplace for good measure, too.

The surrounding island isn't particularly large and the nearest beach is only around ten minutes' walk away. You'll find tavernas, bakeries and bars along the way, while the ferry port sits a quarter of an hour away on foot and will help you take day trips to neighbouring islands.

Home truths:
*There are bedrooms and bathrooms on the ground floor, although the gym spa facilities and games room are on the basement level and inaccessible to those with reduced mobility
*There's plenty of room to park at the address
*Transfers to and from the ferry are included in the cost, as is the use of two cars (although guests have to cover fuel costs)
*Daily maid service, bedding change every three days and a welcome gift are also included in the price
