Executive Spa Pool Villa, Crete

Description

A break to the Executive Spa Villa on the shores of Crete is a real escape from reality. This luxury Greek island villa has an enviable location looking out to sea, and the restful sound of the waves is with you from the moment you wake until the moment your head hits the pillow.

The villa’s interior is light and airy and enormous care has been taken in the design of it. The characterful bedrooms both have their own very individual look and a restful atmosphere. In the communal areas, a spacious living room and open-plan kitchen means there’s lots of space for you all, whether you’re having a leisurely morning with the papers or catching up with the rest of your party over a few drinks while dinner is served.

Outside, a terrace and grand swimming pool make a wonderful space for entertaining. From the pool, you can look directly out to sea beyond.

For those who like to indulge in a little pampering, everything you could need is laid on at this luxury villa. With sauna, Jacuzzi, steam room and even a gym, you should return from this holiday fully restored in both body and mind.

Whilst benefiting from the privacy of your own villa, a stay offers access to the estate facilities including private beach club, kid’s club and delicious restaurants offering traditional Greek delicacies and  dishes.
