The sophisticated luxury of Villa Mitos sprawls above the beautiful bay of Chania in Crete. From here you can watch the intoxicating sight of a morning sunrise or evening sunset, an unbeatable part of island life. Villa Mitos is designed with elegance and luxury in mind, but it’s still very much a home. Stunning in its simplicity, you’ll be ready to relax and recharge as soon as you close the door behind you.

You’re situated 800 meters from the spellbinding Cretan coast with its fluffy golden beaches and agate seas. Comfort and bliss are words synonymous with the area which is home to a number of traditional Greek villages with their relaxed and indulgent pace of living. You’ll find that the energy is infectious and in next to no time you’ll be prepared to drop down a gear and embrace this eternally inspiring island. Alongside diving into sleepy village life, you can explore a vast array of hidden coves and sandy beaches.

A suitable home for eight, the property contains three double bedrooms, a large cinema room with a sleeper sofa suitable for sleeping two, a sweeping outdoor dining and BBQ area and a wonderful heated infinity pool where you’ll undoubtedly spend much of your time. Another enchanting facet of the property is its numerous balconies and terraces which serve to showcase the best of Crete. Airy and spacious inside, the open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area give a sense of communal space ideal for quality family time. They say the devil is in the details and set across two floors, the layout, design and furnishings have been thought about conscientiously. The layout of the property guarantees that you’re able to enjoy the natural beauty surrounding you and that whether inside or outside you can make use of the light, airy space suffused with style.

The first master bedroom comes complete with a king-sized bed, and an en suite shower room and has access to a shared and private balcony which you can access through large sliding terrace windows. The second bedroom also comes complete with a king-size bed, en suite shower and a private balcony. From here, you can follow a staircase which leads to the main living area. On the ground floor, you’ll find the third double bedroom which has quick access to the private pool. Inside you can enjoy the open-plan living space perfect for rustling up meals, kicking back and watching the television and cosying up on any of the many seating areas. With fine views of the pool and bay, this is a truly tranquil space.

Outdoor living rules in Crete. Spend time in the great outdoors relaxing by the pool, reading on the terrace or firing up the BBQ for an al fresco meal which languishes into the night. If you’re aiming for lunch instead, you can use the covered pergola for shade and shelter. The neutral colours and sublime décor allow the natural colours of Crete to pop. Enjoy your stay in sublime luxury at Villa Mitos.

What Oliver loves...

  • It would be easy to spend your entire holiday at the villa, and although we’d encourage you to explore Crete, you should definitely spend some time in your gorgeous holiday home too. We love the airy interiors and the beautiful outdoor areas where it feels like the pool is literally sliding off into the sea.
  • We love the mix of private and shared balconies and terraces, perfect as a breakfast nook, reading area, meditation zone or simply for taking in the beauty of the area.
  • Eat at To Maridaki in Chania if you want massive portions of wholesome Cretan food. We really loved the sea bass and stuffed eggplant.
  • The house enjoys lovely sunsets.



What you should know

  • We found ‘cash is king’, in some of the more remote areas of the island including towns and villages, so best to always keep some cash on you.
  • Crete is a large island and is best explored by car, glad we booked in advance as we heard rentals can easily get booked out during the more popular months.
  • The pace of life here is slow and easy, but we did get into the local habit of sitting and sipping an iced frappe at the local coffee shop every morning.
  • Guests have exclusive access to the entire villa and its amenities. On rare occasions, maintenance staff or service providers may require access, always with prior notice.
