seaside holiday villa rental crete

Nestled on a rocky hillside, this luxurious seaside retreat is a masterpiece of Mediterranean architecture. The waves crash onto the shore just a couple of meters below giving the villa the distinct impression of an anchored boat. With three bedrooms in the main house, and a separate guesthouse, Villa Himalia can accommodate up to nine guests. **Please note: The rates shown include the main building of the villa (3 bedrooms, 6 people maximum). The use of the guesthouse, suitable for 3 people, is at additional cost. Please inquire.Rentals are Friday to Friday at this villa.INTERIOR: The entire property has been designed to blur the boundaries between the building and its stunning natural surroundings. Completely stripped of any superfluous décor, emphasizing the vista across the rugged coastline of Crete, the ever-so-cool monochrome interiors blend harmoniously with the rough, wild Cretan landscape. Wooden floors and minimalist furnishing in light wood paired with glass walls, steel and rock elements offer a twist that allows guests to remain focused on the views. However, the X-Factor here is privacy: Bask in the serenity of a secluded property and drink in the endless blue of breathtaking sea views even from the beds of its three master bedrooms. The first master bedroom, located on the ground floor, features an ensuite bathroom and, through its vast glass opening, offers an unsurpassed view to the sea and to the illuminated rocks. The second master bedroom with ensuite bathroom, located on the lower level, has direct access to the plunge pool. A third master bedroom with its bathroom are found on the lower floor of the villa.An absolutely autonomous guesthouse (up to three guests) for visitors further enhances the feeling of exclusivity in this majestic villa as everything here adds up to an utterly relaxing retreat for families looking to connect and/or friends looking to relax and recharge in absolute serenity and total privacy.EXTERIOR: Layering itself down the side of a rocky cliff, the villa is cut into the landscape effortlessly embracing the elements of nature. Details, such as the big rock that has been turned into an element of the structure, or the small waterfall linking the property’s main pool with a plunge pool a level below, create a restful sanctuary of peace and serenity just a stone’s throw from the beach. Meanwhile, the pool’s glass edge makes you feel as though the water flows right into the sea. Throughout the villa guests are encouraged to indulge in a joyful sense of harmony, which appeals to devotees of the Cretan spirit. In this enchanting hideaway eco-awareness coexists with contemporary aesthetics. Frugal lines and straight edges frame the raw magnificence of the natural setting high above the Libyan Sea, without sacrificing the comfort of direct accessibility by car.Included in the rental price:
