Hestia’s Heart

Holiday Rental Description

On the island of Kea, on an amphitheatrical plot of land, you will find this home perched above the protected bay of Vourkari, offering incredible panoramic views of the Aegean sea and the bay below. What’s more, all the interior spaces here have also been well-designed to allow you to enjoy the magnificent views almost from the moment you wake up.

The yachting Marina of Vourkari is just a five-minute drive away, where you can experience some of the best seaside restaurants and bars. While the nearest sandy beach of Yaliskari is roughly 1.5km away from your door.

When you’re not exploring the surrounding areas, enjoy relaxing days lounging in the Greek sunshine before slipping into the cool water of the swimming pool with its unobstructed views of the amazing waters and bay that are the crowning glory of the landscape.

The large main terrace here offers a pergola-covered seating and dining area, which creates the ideal spot for quiet reading in the shade or alfresco dining overlooking the ocean as the sun sets and sends the vistas golden. So, fire up the barbecue and cook some delicious souvlaki, and then settle down for a meal overlooking the swimming pool and sea beyond.
