Description Ancient Agamennu: Kranidi

Built across a single level, this sprawling villa is crowned with a large swimming pool where ancient trees keep the heat of the day at bay. There's a sense of serenity inside (verging on mundane in terms of the decor), and the lofty living room stays cool throughout the day. The poolside terrace looks out over the bay and town of Porto Cheli, letting you know that beachside tavernas and grocery shops are within walking distance. Or, take a ten-minute water taxi to Spetses for the buzzing nightlife.

Home truths:
*This home is laid out on a single level.
*One of the bedrooms is in a guesthouse, separate from the villa.
*Pool maintenance and housekeeping are included with your stay here.
*The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
*There's a grocery shop 1km away and the beach is a five-minute walk, but having a car is recommended. There is private parking for up to three cars on-site.
