A modern and minimalist villa with beautiful views of Spinalonga Island

Located just outside Elounda village on Crete, the luxurious Villa Elounda Olivia offers panoramic sea views of the island of Spinalonga and the majestic Sitia mountains. Sleeping up to 12 guests, the villa is ideal for a luxury Greek Island holiday or as a gorgeous setting for a memorable destination wedding.

Spread across a vast plot of 6000 square metres, the villa is surrounded by lush gardens, creating a haven of privacy and tranquillity. The expansive, grassy lawns invite early morning yoga sessions, while the numerous terraces provide ample space for relaxation and quality time with loved ones, away from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

A heated infinity pool lined with sun loungers is the perfect place to relax and take in the spectacular sea views. Day beds and a poolside lounge area offer more spaces to soak up the sun post-dip. Behind the pool is a large outdoor dining area with a barbecue and woodfire pizza oven for relaxed al fresco meals.

The upper-ground level features more sea and garden-view terraces with sociable lounge areas and outdoor dining spaces. A stone terrace jutting out over the hillside is perfect for enjoying evening aperitifs whilst taking in spectacular sunset views.

Set over two levels, the contemporary villa features chic, minimalist interiors and a muted colour palette inspired by the surrounding nature. Stone flooring creates a relaxed vibe, whilst floor-to-ceiling windows flood the spaces with light and offer spectacular views.

The upper floor features a spacious living room with plush seating and a cosy fireplace for the cooler months, an elegant dining room, and an open-plan kitchen with retractable bay windows opening onto the beautiful terraces.

On the lower level, a second living room features a bar area with direct access to the pool terrace, a cosy cinema room, and a fully-equipped gym.

Six spacious bedrooms are spread over the two floors, all featuring en-suite facilities and most with private balconies or terraces.

This villa is also a versatile and breathtaking venue for a destination wedding or special event. The stunning grounds accommodate up to 80 guests and feature a charming on-site chapel.

The beautiful Villa Elounda Olivia offers it all, from spacious grounds to modern facilities to spectacular sea views, ensuring an unforgettable luxury holiday experience or a memorable special event.
