About this property
A stunning villa on a totally private promontory
Metro Registration Number 00000849530
5 Star Rated Property with unique design in unique location !!
Villa Andromeda is a unique semi-circular design reflecting the maritime heritage of Crete. Designed by a well-travelled family as a private residence, the villa sits high on its own private 4000 meter plot with 270 degree sea views. Luxury, Space, Seclusion, and Relaxation were foremost in our minds for the design. Equally however we wanted a thoughtful and safe environment for families where everyone can relax and find their own peace and privacy in total safety.
The villa is situated outside the village of Kokkino Horio made famous by "Zorba the Greek" and is a few minutes from the lovely village of Plaka and just down the road the beaches and restaurants of Almirida. The area is easily accessible from both Chania International Airport (30 minutes away) or Heraklion (90 minutes away)
The Western end of Crete is more lush and green than the Eastern end and the endless azure of the sea gives way quickly to mountains and unspoiled interiors full of olive groves and historic sites. Chania itself is worth a day, full of the history and atmosphere of an ancient Venetian stronghold.
Master Bedroom 1 has a private terrace, private bathroom, and its own luxurious stone bath. Soak in total privacy as you admire the view.
Master Bedroom 2 has a private terrace and private bathroom.
Bedroom 3 is a comfortable double
Bedroom 4 features a lovely large bunk bed and children' writing desks.
Bedroom 5 is a comfortable double downstairs
The Kitchen is arranged with a Breakfast bar so that the chef need not be excluded, and features high-end appliances and everything needed to prepare simple or fanciful meals.
A separate dining area extends into a full sitting room. The whole room can be opened to the terrace to give a feeling of infinite space and warmth.
The villa has a gorgeous roof terrace which is safe for the whole family yet affords stunning views of the bay.
Immediately outside the kitchen is a lovely shaded dining area, and outdoor barbecue facilities.
In front of the villa is a stunning infinity pool with a dedicated children's "splash pool" to one side, shallow and ideal for toddlers.
The villa, totally enclosed by high fencing and walls, features several levels of gardens and at the very end has its' own "sundowner" spot magically perched above the sea and outside the walls.
Villa Andromeda naturally features full Satellite TV, WifI Internet , Air Conditioning, Solar Power, Video Security, Alarm system, and just about every necessity for a smooth running vacation.
A house manager lives a few minutes away and is on call. Daily house cleaning can be arranged for a small fee. Many further services are available on request.
Make Villa Andromeda your home for a week or more and return refreshed and relaxed. It is our dream home and we hope it will temporarily be yours as well.

About the host
Hosted by Villa Andromeda Crete
We are a fun loving, and quite global family and have lived in Australia, Asia, Eastern Europe, and America. We have enjoyed renting many types of homes for our vacations and always made a list of things we would like to see in a dream home.
Why they chose this property
Crete was love at first sight. Villa Andromeda was love at first site ! The setting is simply unbelievable, above the bay on its' own private promontory. The site combines all the elements and appeals to all the senses. It captures the sun all day, there is a constant sea breeze and the sound of the ocean is softly ever-present. We purchased the land and then built a home that is unique in design and thoughtfully laid out for families and groups.
What makes this property unique
We designed the benefits. A safe house and garden. An abundance of private separated spaces to sunbathe, read or snooze. A perfect infinity pool to cool off, coupled with a lovely mini pool so the little ones can splash around and with moveable shade so they can take a dip anytime. A villa that completely opens up to the patio and the views beyond. A well equipped kitchen to cook and socialize from. A great basement area and media room, and space for teenagers to hang out. We think we have put it all into our place and hope you will call it yours for a week or two.
