Sugared Sun

Located in the small, picturesque fishing village of Panormo – 20 kilometres east of Rethymnon city – this beautiful modern villa is a slice of coastal bliss just waiting for you to unwind amidst its leafy grounds and breathtaking sea views. Its bright white exterior looks like a stack of sugar cubes perched on a hill, and stepping inside, you’ll see its interiors are just as sweet. Sleek lines and pared-back contemporary decor set a striking scene in the open-plan living with its eye-catching fireplace and large patio doors. Open these up to step out onto a shaded terrace – the ideal spot to begin mornings over coffee. Then, head down to the manicured lawn and its private pool for a day of luxurious sun-soaking and swimming. Mealtimes call for alfresco barbecues when you’re not out sampling the local tavernas and restaurants, and nothing seals the night quite like a glass of Cretan wine on your bedroom’s balconies as the stars dazzle above. Outside of your home, you’ll find the nearest Blue Flag beach just 300 metres away, as well as a host of cultural sights within easy reach, including Castel Milopotamo and the Melidoni Cave.
