A backdrop of rugged mountains, a surrounding landscape of undulating, thyme-scented olive groves and a remarkable 180° swathe of cobalt Aegean Sea dominating the field of vision to the front, make this is an undoubtedly captivating location. Statuesque and contemporary by design, Marilia is a comfortable, well-appointed property where guests will very quickly feel at home. An infinity-edged private pool as well as numerous balconies and terraces provide multiple options for alfresco relaxation and soaking up the wealth of gorgeous views that can be seen all around these calming, appealingly verdant environs.
Clean lines and a fresh, contemporary styling greet the eye as you step inside Marilia where a welcoming atmosphere is immediately apparent. Decorated in muted tones punctuated with vibrant colour highlights, the spacious living/dining area is frequently illuminated by sunbeams dancing through the two individual sets of French doors that open onto the terrace. Completing the ground floor are a bright, fitted kitchen, a shower room and twin bedroom with its own terrace access.

Wherever you are in the property those enthralling views of sea, sky and country are always to hand, perhaps never more so than on the first floor where the principal bedroom has not just one but two separate balconies all to itself. The sea views alone stretch from the Akrotiri Peninsula and Chania Town on the right, via Agioi Theodoroi Island all the way across to the Rodopos Peninsula on the left - a vibrant, ever-changing panorama of which it is surely impossible to grow tired.

Nearby Maleme (1.7km) is a laid-back coastal enclave with good amenities that include supermarkets, cafés, coffee shops and a long beach fringed by popular tavernas. Rich in military history, this part of Crete played a key role in WWII and every year holds many impressive, commemorative events around the mid/latter part of May. Locally available leisure pursuits include snorkelling, fishing, boat hire and horse riding with country walks and biking trails also found in easy distance.
