Details
A newly built villa (sister to Villa Skye) and new to Crete Escapes from the 2024 season.
General Description
Villa Daymer is a newly built, single storey property with 3 bedrooms (all en-suite) and a stunning private pool. The villa is situated on a large plot along a track leading from the village of Kokkino Horio and due to its elevated position, boasts fabulous views of Souda Bay, the White Mountains and the surrounding countryside.
This fully air-conditioned villa is comprehensively equipped (see amenities list) and stylishly furnished to match its contemporary exterior design.
The open plan living/kitchen/dining area has 3 sets of large glass doors extending the full length of the room allowing the inside to join seamlessly with the outside space with its generous terraces and good sized swimming pool; the perfect place to soak up the magnificent vista beyond.
A large dining table and 6 chairs together with comfortable L shaped seating facing the large 65 inch TV in the lounge area, complements the ultra modern kitchen - everything you need for a self catering holiday.
To the rear of the kitchen is a handy utility/cloakroom comprising of a handbasin, wc, washing machine and other laundry equipment.
The 3 en-suite bedrooms, one king (principal) and two twin (one of the twins can be made up as a king) are to the rear of the villa and are furnished with luxury mattresses and plenty of wardrobe and drawer storage. All bedrooms benefit from floor to ceiling patio doors opening onto private terracing with the principal bedroom having the advantage of patio doors to the side of the villa so those fantastic sea views are never far away.
The villa is centrally heated (air source heating/reverse air-con) which makes it a good choice for early or late season holidays when some heating may be required on chilly evenings.
External Areas
Roman steps, the full width of the swimming pool, make taking a dip to cool off very easy and a lovely place to sit and relax. Furthermore, a shallow flat area in the pool is ideal for water sunbeds (two supplied); another splendid way to while away the hours on those hot sunny days.
For a spot of al fresco dining there is an outdoor table and 6 chairs under a covered pergola providing shade on the extensive sitting /dining/ sunbathing area when required. A magnificent roof terrace (unfurnished) provides another viewpoint area to enjoy spectacular 360 degree views of the area.
A portable BBQ is provided for those who fancy an evening in to enjoy that all important al fresco dining with the added bonus of experiencing those magnificent sunsets for which this area of Crete is renowned.
