Nestled in the heart of the Cretan countryside, this exquisite contemporary villa redefines luxury living. Spanning an impressive 630 m² and set on a vast plot of over 9,000 m², the estate offers panoramic views of the sea, mountains, and lush olive groves, while being just minutes from pristine beaches and only a short drive from Rethymno.

Built in 2024, the villa combines sleek modern design with exceptional comfort. Inside, the main residence features nine beautifully appointed bedrooms and six. The lower ground floor is a sanctuary of wellness and entertainment, housing four serene double bedrooms, two designer bathrooms, a fully-equipped gym, a dedicated yoga and games room with a bar and kitchen, and a luxurious private spa complete with Jacuzzi, hammam, and sauna. This level also includes a large soundproof cinema with an impressive 120-inch screen, a fully equipped laundry room, and extensive custom storage.

The ground floor flows effortlessly from an elegant open-plan living space to the outdoors. A state-of-the-art Italian kitchen with Miele appliances and a Neolith island anchors the interior, complemented by a cozy lounge area and a chic dining space. Wide sliding doors open onto a generous outdoor terrace featuring a shaded al fresco dining area for 32 guests, a stylish infinity pool, and a second dining zone with a full inox outdoor kitchen. Four additional bedrooms, each with direct access to private terraces, and three bathrooms, plus a guest WC, complete this level.

The first-floor master suite is a private retreat with expansive sea and mountain views. It features a spacious ensuite with a freestanding bath and double rain shower, a luxurious bedroom area with adjacent sitting space, and not one but two walk-in wardrobes. Two separate private terraces provide serene settings for morning coffee or evening relaxation, one of which includes an outdoor kitchen and lounge.

The estate also includes a private guesthouse with two double bedrooms and two bathrooms, alongside an open-plan kitchen and lounge that leads to a secluded terrace. Additionally, a self-contained studio offers a cozy and independent living space with a kitchen, dining area, bathroom, and its own private terrace. Guests in both the guesthouse and studio can enjoy a magnificent shared 100 m² terrace with sweeping views of the coastline and countryside.

From underfloor heating and air conditioning throughout to electric shutters and mosquito nets, every detail has been thoughtfully considered. The surrounding garden, abundant with olive trees, fruit trees, herbs, and tropical plants, creates a serene natural environment. A blend of open patios and shaded courtyards offers endless options for relaxation—whether practicing yoga at sunrise, savoring a glass of wine at sunset, or hosting unforgettable gatherings under the stars.
