Villa Melia

This beautiful villa gives way to complete seclusion and privacy, the perfect place for a relaxing retreat, away from the stresses of everyday life. Relax by the swimming pool, and gaze out over the horizon, across to the magnificent views. There is an array of adventure activities to do nearby, be it sailing in a catamaran or sea kayaking. When night falls choose a taverna by the port, with a glass of Cretan wine in hand, to taste the island’s culinary heritage and get involved in village life.

Behind the large bay windows, the design pays tribute to the natural rock of the island. In the living room, stone walls embrace the simple and pure lines of the furniture made from blond wood with taupe linen. The asymmetric wooden light fittings add a touch of modernity to the natural materials and soft colours. Upstairs the rooms open to the sea and salute the marine realm that they overlook. The summer kitchen and the patio consist of open-air lounge areas around the infinity pool, which looks as though it blends into the sea beyond.
