Villa Aeolus

About this property

Villa Aeolus blends elements of Greek and Italian design, showcasing a contemporary architectural style. Located in the serene northern countryside of Crete, the villa offers a tranquil retreat.

Upon arrival, guests will find two private parking spaces and access through a secure gate. The main entrance opens into a spacious open-plan living and dining area, complemented by a modern kitchen. A large L-shaped sofa faces a 42” satellite television and a splendid coffee table, bathed in natural light from expansive glass doors leading to the terrace and garden. Adjacent to this area is a dining table, with an additional option to dine in the exquisite courtyard featuring ambient lighting. The well-equipped kitchen includes high-end appliances and a kitchen island with stools for casual dining.

The ground floor accommodates two double bedrooms, each designed with modern elegance and featuring patio doors opening to a terrace and garden. These rooms combine rustic interior walls and wooden flooring to integrate traditional elements within a modern setting.

The master suite, located on the first floor accessible via a glass-panelled walkway overlooking the garden, offers a king-size bed, quality furnishings, ample storage, and a luxurious ensuite bathroom. The bathroom features a spacious shower with massaging air jets and a therapeutic Jacuzzi. A balcony adjoining the suite provides comfortable seating and stunning views of the surroundings and distant sea.

The villa includes two additional bathrooms on the ground floor—one with a hydro massage air-jets shower and another with a WC—all adorned with marble panels, wooden floors, bathrobes, fluffy towels, and premium Cretan toiletries.

Outside, the garden features various seating areas, a shimmering private pool, and expansive lawns bordered by orange trees. Guests can enjoy outdoor dining in the courtyard, relax with a drink on the veranda, or unwind on sun loungers by the pool, enveloped by the tranquillity of the surroundings.

Situated in a private and peaceful location near Chania, with views of the Platanias mountains, Villa Aeolus offers an ideal retreat immersed in nature, yet conveniently close to the vibrant city.

Chania, the capital of Crete, is one of the most famous towns of the Greek islands, particularly for its authentic culture and character and historic structures including its beautiful Venetian Harbour.

It is an incredibly well-preserved Venetian town with all kinds of Medieval architecture, framing a bustling metropolis of museums, churches, narrow shopping streets, waterfront restaurants and crafts shops. Alongside the stunning coastal areas and mountainous landscapes are an array of outstanding remains and glorious buildings of an ancient era, including a picturesque harbourfront and interesting venetian lighthouse.

Chania is also the perfect location to try all kinds of local cuisine, wine and traditional feasts – some of the best local restaurants include: The Well of the Turk, Antigoni, Karnagio, Chrysostomos and Above Chania. Furthermore, for educational and historical adventures you can visit the Maritime Museum, or the Archaeological Museum, or take a trip to one of the many surrounding monasteries or historical sites including the Samaria Gorge, Venizelos Graves or the unique architectural complex of Tabakaria.

To the north of the island are the more touristic beach areas, and to the south are the more secluded and traditional beaches, punctuated by small seaside villages, and of course there are thousands of deserted coves and isolated bays for private enjoyment, if you look hard enough! The West Coast beaches of soft sand and coloured pebbles, such as Falasarna, are around 38km away from Villa Aeolus, and the South Coast beaches with beautiful crystal-clear waters, including Sougia, are about 53km away.
