About this property

Luxury Villa • Sea View • Private Pool • Roof Lounge • BBQ

This villa is located in the south of the Cretan island, nestled on the top of the Alevrota hill, in a cozy traditional village called Kamilari. 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's access to the WiFi network from every room, both indoors and outdoors, and there is airconditioning 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 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 palmtrees and tropical plants. At the back of the house there is 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. Surrounded by a herbal roofgarden and equipped with a full outdoor kitchen, there's ample space to relax in the lounge and enjoy the breathtaking view 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 surroundings with a modern boho design. Luxury, refinement 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 calm, positive energy and stress-free elegance.

About the host

Hosted by Jeroen

Host profile image
Hey there new friend! My name is Jeroen. I am a: musician, animal lover, coffee addict and photography enthusiast. I also have a passion for learning languages, which is helpful on travels. Along with Dutch and English, I speak fluent French. Airbnb is a new adventure for me, but I'm ready for it! Together with my girlfriend Maja, I host a villa that we built in the south of the Greek island Crete. Creating and building this place has been a real labour of love. Welcoming our guests to it, will also be.

Why they chose this property

A few years ago we fell in love with Crete, the stunning nature, the food, the sea and the hospitality of the people. We decided to make our dream come true and build a home there. It turned out to be quite an adventure, but we're proud of the result. We've put our hearts into making Nepenthe a welcoming place. We'd like you to discover it for yourself and we hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do!
