I See The Sea

Holiday Rental Description

Following the stone-hewn steps up to this villa feels like making a pilgrimage to a hilltop monastery. But up here you won’t find any frugal living – a curvacious pool hangs off the hillside, looking out over the sparkling blue Aegean as boats cut across the water. Driftwood and stone accents across the terrace give a boho-luxe feel and there are sprawling day beds in the sun or shaded sofas to while away the days. Everything is set up to take advantage of that glorious sea view – bean bags on the wooden decking and a covered dining area with a built-in stone kitchen.

Bedrooms are spread across the honey-hued stone villa and two poolhouse rooms, including a cave-like bedroom. Each room has the traditional smooth white stone curves of a typically Grecian island home. Showers and baths in each ensuite feel like they’ve been hewn from the stone of the building. The pristine white and grey of the living room are only broken up by the addition of sea blues and navy and the glass sliding doors can be left open to blend indoors with the sea-view terrace.

The best bit? You'll have a private path that'll take you directly to the beach in just five minutes.

Home truths:
*Two of the bedrooms are in separate buildings in the garden
*The closest supermarket is 4km away, so having a car is recommended and there is parking for five cars with the villa
*Housekeeping is available seven days a week and the hours are arranged at your convenience on arrival
*Linen is changed twice a week and towels are changed daily
