It is about 2 km from the sea and close to everything you need: beaches, nature, restaurants and other tourist areas. Nepenthe is a modest, yet luxurious 2-bedroom villa with lots of boho character. The design is inspired by the traditional Greek style, infused with modern minimalism and great attention to comfort. There is access to the WiFi network from every area, both inside and outside, and there is an air conditioning unit in every room. Each bedroom has its own bathroom and access to the balcony. Downstairs there is a living room with a closed fireplace, a fully equipped kitchen and an outside dining area. The living room and kitchen have panoramic folding doors. When these are fully opened, the entire ground floor changes into one large indoor-outdoor space with lots of space and light. Outside by the pool you get the feeling of a self-contained resort, surrounded by palm trees and tropical plants. At the back of the house, there's a cozy stone garden with Mediterranean plants. It has a comfortable seating area, equipped with an outdoor fireplace that runs on clean ethanol fuel, perfect for warmth and cozy comfort in the evenings. But the best place in the house is without a doubt the huge terrace on the top floor. Outlined by a roof garden with herbs and equipped with a complete outdoor kitchen, there is plenty of space to relax in the lounge and enjoy the breathtaking views over the valley with its olive groves, the surrounding mountains, or the vast Libyan sea with a tiny nearby island right in front of you. The culture in Crete revolves around cooking and eating in the open air. The rooftop kitchen is equipped with a gas BBQ, perfect for a large lunch or dinner, ready to receive a large group of people with food and wine. The interior of the villa complements the natural environment with a modern boho design. Luxury, sophistication and comfort will make you feel right at home during your holiday. This allows you to discover and experience Greece at your own pace, surrounded by stress-free elegance and calm, positive energy. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the villa: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Kitchenette - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Outdoor shower - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Stereo - Video games ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a village - In the mountains - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the sea ### Things to do - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Motor boating nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Swimming nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,292 square feet ## Similar properties ![Smart TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/102000000/101530000/101527600/101527596/d8f93079.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Triades Villas 3, Traumhafte Natursteinvilla mit Salzwasserpool, Ruhige Umgebung Sivas - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Pet-friendly [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-04&endDate=2025-11-05&selected=101527596&PinnedHotelID=101527596&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/116000000/115150000/115141900/115141888/15c4b12a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### House with sea view.
