In recent years many areas of Greece are constantly creating new properties in amazing places and locations. Approximately 35% of bookings this summer season are for villa rentals. Thus, it is appropriate to highlight the 6 best villas in Greece.
In Greece, the brilliant blue sea is never too far away – and many of the new villas are close to the beach. If we talk about the possibilities of Greece for hiking and nature holidays, the traditional villages, which are rarely far from the beach, are becoming more and more popular.
Many Greek destinations are served by direct flights from the UK, but as the high season sees seats booked up well in advance, harder-to-reach islands could soon have their moment in the sun. More and more British travellers are interested in places such as Paros, Paxos and Skopelos, which are typically reached via a flight to a nearby island, then a ferry.
The six of the best new villas in Greece are:
Rising Sun, Paxos
The newly renovated Rising Sun villa is at the heart of Corfu, so clients will be able to go for leisurely wanders in the forest whenever they choose – or simply admire it from the infinity pool.
Ariadne, Lefkada
This villa offers a sociable holiday in lovely Lefkada, featuring a welcoming open-plan layout, two alfresco dining areas plus an outdoor barbecue. A modern Scandi-chic vibe reigns indoors, and for the rare rainy days, there’s even a sauna.
Joy of the Sea, Crete
Overlooking Crete’s dazzlingly blue Mirabello Bay and the islet of Spinalonga – setting of Victoria Hislop’s The Island – this new offering from Villa Select offers panoramic views of both from the comfort of the huge living room.
Bianco Boutique Villa Adam, Rhodes
Inside, it’s cool and modern, while outside is a large L-shaped pool and terrace – complete with stepping stones, outdoor barbecue and even a hammock – which makes for an Insta-friendly hangout.
Villa Hades, Paros
Hades might be the god of the underworld, but this holiday home is a Parian paradise. Wood, rattan and whitewashed walls keep the place looking Cycladic, as does the wavy-edged infinity pool, which comes with whirlpool jets.
Villa Melite, Olympian Riviera
Next to a sandy beach and with views across the garden to the imposing Platamon Castle, this compact pink house is ideal for a family of four looking for an easy-breezy holiday.
