Villa Livadi

About this property

Villa Livadi is an extraordinary coastal retreat in Crete, offering private access to the golden sands of Ferma Beach. Set within expansive grounds, this palatial residence impresses with classical architecture, soaring columns, grand balustrades and a sweeping staircase that evokes a stately atmosphere.

Inside, the villa balances grandeur with comfort. Carved wood, marble, and stone elements are paired with opulent tapestries and archways, creating a warm yet elegant ambience. Multiple lounges and a formal dining space provide ample room for guests to gather and unwind in style.

The main villa houses seven individually styled bedrooms, a blend of double and twin rooms, all featuring ensuite or adjacent bathrooms with marble finishes, double vanity units and walk-in showers. Many rooms open directly onto terraces or gardens with captivating sea views, ideal for morning coffee or evening drinks. A separate garden bungalow with its own bedroom, kitchenette and living area offers added privacy and flexibility.

Outside, the landscaped gardens centre around a striking swimming pool framed by classical columns and uninterrupted views across the Mediterranean. Sun loungers, a pergola-shaded dining area, and a built-in barbecue make outdoor living a joy. A private path leads directly to the beach, completing this exceptional seaside escape, 

Set on the south-eastern coast of Crete, Ferma is a superb base for exploring this diverse and captivating island, offering authentic local charm just moments from your door. A private path leads directly to the beach, while the surrounding area is renowned for its pristine coastline, including the golden sands of Agia Fotia and the tranquil waters of Agios Andreas, ideal for swimming, paddling or simply soaking up the sun.

Within walking distance, the village offers welcoming tavernas and restaurants, while the lively town of Ierapetra, just a fifteen-minute drive away, boasts excellent shopping, vibrant bars and a charming Venetian fort. As the southernmost city in Europe, Ierapetra is home to some of Crete’s longest and most celebrated sandy beaches.

For a change of pace, head east to the traditional market town of Sitia. Set around a peaceful harbour and framed by rolling mountains, it offers a relaxed atmosphere, friendly locals, and plenty of cafés and tavernas for leisurely alfresco dining.

Crete itself, the largest of the Greek islands, is famed for its clear waters, diverse beaches, ancient monasteries, scenic caves and lush landscapes. From lively resorts to quiet fishing villages and remote coves, the island’s varied coastline promises something for every kind of traveller.
