Watermelon Sugar

This contemporary villa is positioned in a prime location for accessing the beach (only a 100m walk away) and Crete's historic capital, Chania (5km away) this contemporary villa grants a luxurious and authentic experience you'll want to write home about.

Modern lines and comfortable furnishings present a soothing space in earthy tones. Meaning guests can enjoy a blissful space from which to unwind with ease. Take in the stunning sea views from the elevated balcony terrace over a delicious watermelon cocktail come sundown.

During the day, you'll probably want to spend most of your time in and around the pool (with a hydro-massage feature) – as from here, you'll also be ideally situated to take in the vistas. We love the natural flow from the inside living spaces and out onto the terrace, it will allow you to make the most of each corner of the space. Meanwhile, those lucky enough to snag the sea-facing bedrooms can walk two steps from their bed and be out in the sunshine in a heartbeat.

On days and evenings when you're feeling inclined to soak up the local culture, head into Chania to explore the city's vast array of Cretan cuisine, boutiques and historic architecture waiting to be experienced.
