Perched in the hills of north-western Crete, Villa Ulysses is a striking, architect-designed retreat with panoramic views over Loutraki Bay. One of a pair of contemporary residences, it features expansive windows, exposed stonework, and minimalist interiors that frame the scenery to dramatic effect.

The villa accommodates up to six guests across three stylish en-suite bedrooms. The master suite occupies the first floor and includes a king-size bed, television, and marble-clad shower room. Two further bedrooms are located on the lower ground floor, each with a king-size bed (one convertible to twins) and elegant en-suite bathrooms.

The open-plan ground floor offers a light-filled living and dining area, alongside a fully equipped kitchen. Glass doors open onto a sea-facing balcony with an alfresco dining space, ideal for sunset drinks or leisurely meals after a day by the private infinity pool.

Additional features include a home cinema room with a television, DVD player and games console, as well as a hot tub, barbecue, and landscaped garden filled with aromatic herbs.

Just one hundred and seventy metres away, a sandy beach with shallow waters, a café, and a local taverna offers relaxed seaside convenience, perfect for families or quiet coastal days.

What Oliver loves...

  • Wonderful location just a short stroll from an excellent family-run taverna serving delicious local cuisine and the beautiful sandy Loutraki beach
  • Enjoy long relaxing soaks in the private infinity edge plunge pool – a really beautiful spot from which to soak up the views out over Loutraki Bay under the Greek sunshine!
  • Villa Ulysses was designed by Aristomenis Varoudakis, one of the most famous architects in Crete, using local materials of wood, stone and glass combined with traditional yet modern craftsmanship. It really is an architectural delight!

What you should know

  • Subject for availability, those in larger groups can choose to also rent the sister villa - Villa Odyssey - which is just next-door
  • While the villa makes an excellent choice for those travelling with teens or older children, the architectural features may make it less suitable for those with toddlers
