Perched on the rugged coastline of the Akrotiri peninsula, Villa Zorba is a sleek, waterfront escape with uninterrupted views across Chania Bay. Set on a private four-thousand five-hundred square metre plot near the tranquil village of Tersanas, this striking retreat balances bold architecture with refined interiors, offering seamless access to Crete’s natural beauty and just thirteen kilometres from Chania’s Venetian harbour.

The villa comprises five bedrooms, four with sweeping sea views and one overlooking the White Mountains. Three rooms feature double beds, two have twin beds, and four enjoy en-suite bathrooms. The fifth bedroom shares a spacious bathroom with a separate shower and bathtub. Living areas span two levels: the ground floor offers a minimalist lounge with leather seating, a Bose sound system, and direct access to the terrace. A sleek kitchen with a central island, modern appliances, and a stone feature wall flows into the dining area. A bedroom suite is located here with a wellness-style shower. Upstairs, guests will find a second lounge with a television, PlayStation 3, books, and an additional guest bathroom.

Outdoors, a heated fifty square metre infinity pool with a shallow children’s area, multiple terraces, shaded dining and lounge spots, and a barbecue zone await. A serene relaxation corner sits near the sea path. Extras include an outdoor Bose sound system, a welcome basket with local spirits, and gym essentials such as weights, a bench, and yoga mats.

What Oliver loves...

  • Villa Zorba offers the wow factor! Its striking, contemporary architecture with its brilliant blend of materials and its stunning interior design are just magical!
  • The villa is incredibly spacious, offering four gorgeous bedroom suites and two sensational living spaces, one of which can be used as an extra bedroom
  • The villa’s exclusive location is jaw-dropping. With the most astounding of panoramic views from every space and a private pathway that leads directly to the sea, it is clear that the owner was intent in making the very most of this special spot
  • As well as exploring the Akrotiri peninsula, you can spend a day or evening exploring Chania’s beautiful Venetian Old Town and harbour in less than half an hour. The Old Town boasts many exceptional restaurants for dinner but for an authentic feast you can try Tamam and for a very special rooftop experience, you should try Pallas

What you should know

  • Please take good care of young children on the rocky pathway to the sea and please do not let them head off without supervision
  • If you are heading into Chania for dinner, it is best to pre-book a dinner table though there are also plenty of walk-ins
  • Please note that there is an additional charge for access to the fifth bedroom, if you will need all five bedrooms please select the maximum capacity when booking. Those paying the reduced rate for 8 or fewer guests will only have access to 4 bedrooms.
