Description Watercolour Sunset: Ioulis

With its unfussy interiors, dusk-to-dawn views of the Aegean Sea and laidback feel, this carefully considered home guarantees a blissful stay in Kea’s untouched countryside. Days begin on the terrace, cup of coffee in hand, watching the sunrise over the craggy landscape. After a traditional Greek breakfast and a game of Pétanque, peruse the bookshelves in the Cycladic-inspired living space and find a shady nook to get lost in a paperback.

Splash about in the glittering pool or lie back on a lounger and soak up the golden sunshine. If exploring is on the agenda, take the short drive to Coressia and watch the boats to and fro from the port. Devour stuffed vine leaves in waterside tavernas before strolling along the soft sands of Gialiskari Beach. When the afternoon draws to a close, head home to make lasting memories with your loved ones in the glow of the sunset.
