Villa Danae

4-12 Keys 4 Bedrooms 8 Guests 4 BathsView Amenities

Description

Situated in Plaka, a charming village in the Elounda region of Eastern Crete, widely known as a holiday destination with plenty of luxury hotels, Villa Danae is part of the “Island View Villas” complex, developed to answer the area’s need for superior quality permanent residences.

The location offers spectacular views, overlooking the village of Plaka and the island of Spinalonga, with its Venetian fortress and rich history, whose past provided the setting for Victoria Hislop’s recent bestseller “The Island”.

Because of its archaeological and architectural importance, the island of Spinalonga functioned as a key reference for the project.

Plaka is approximately one hour’s drive from Heraklion International Airport. The complex is only five minutes on foot from the village, where a variety of waterfront taverns offer fresh seafood and traditional Greek and Cretan delicacies.

The nearby “Blue Palace Hotel” also offers an excellent spa and a choice of fine restaurants.

The property is a luxurious villa of 420 m with a large pool, situated only a few meters away from the sea. It is part of a 7-villa development with its own secluded private beach.

The villa also enjoys a stunning 2,150 sqm landscaped mature garden.

From virtually every point in the house guests can enjoy panoramic views over the famous island of Spinalonga, Elounda Bay and Mirabello Bay.

Externally Villa Danae benefits from pergolas, terraces, a covered dining area, a dedicated BBQ area, a private pool and a large cellar-garage under the house.

The residence has three levels and is designed with sustainability in mind. It enjoys spacious open plan living spaces with a bright and modern fully-equipped, a practical dining room and a comfortable lounge.

With its large 4 bedrooms all ensuite the property can comfortably accommodate 8 guests.

Wonderful villa

We enjoyed a wonderful stay at this outstanding villa. The views from the house and the infinity pool across to the island of Spinalonga are breathtaking. We were made to feel very welcome and were greeted by the maid who came in every day. There were lovely touches including a welcome basket and toiletries. Plaka is a pretty village with plenty of restaurants, most of which were open even though we were there in their low season”
