Home details
Villa Baia is a masterpiece of serene design and effortless elegance, set against the backdrop of Crete’s stunning coastline. Every aspect of the home has been crafted to create a harmonious blend of natural beauty, thoughtful amenities, and refined comfort.
The villa offers five peaceful master bedrooms, each conceived as a private sanctuary with calming interiors that invite rest and relaxation. A separate guest wing ensures added privacy and flexibility, making the property ideal for large families or groups of friends. Among its thoughtful features, you will find a steam sauna to unwind, a welcoming family room for shared moments, and a fully equipped gym to maintain wellness routines even while on holiday.
Outside, a shimmering infinity pool stretches toward the horizon, blurring the line between water and sky. Just steps from the villa, private beach access allows you to dip into the crystal-clear waters of the Aegean whenever you please. The surrounding garden, rich with olive trees, wild herbs, and native plants, fosters a deep and peaceful connection to the land.
Villa Baia has been designed for sharing: the open kitchen and bar area are perfect for preparing and enjoying meals together, whether under the sun or the stars. Every space has been created to welcome laughter, meaningful conversations, and quiet contemplation by the sea.
At the heart of the villa lies a unique wellness experience: a floating yoga deck poised above the water. This serene platform invites you to begin each day with gentle movement, guided by the rhythm of the waves and panoramic views of the endless blue.
On the ground floor, you will find a spacious and fully equipped indoor kitchen alongside a beautiful outdoor cooking area, complete with a built-in barbecue, a large Ooni pizza oven, and a bar designed for alfresco dining and entertaining. The multi-functional gym room is fitted with modern equipment, including a treadmill, so you can enjoy full workout sessions. A cozy sitting area with a large smart TV and PlayStation offers a space for leisure and entertainment.
This level also includes a private and comfortable guest wing with a double bed, an ensuite bathroom, and an outdoor shower. An additional raised sleeping platform allows two children to sleep comfortably, making this space ideal for families or visiting friends. Another suite on the same floor features a private sauna, an ensuite bathroom with a shower, and a bed that can be arranged as either a double or twin. A sofa bed in this room can also be converted into a large single, offering flexible sleeping arrangements.
Upstairs, the master bedroom offers a generous space with an elegant ensuite bathroom, an outdoor shower with panoramic views of the bay, and a private terrace perfect for peaceful mornings or sunset reflections. Two twin bedrooms on this level each come with their own ensuite bathrooms, combining comfort and privacy. A fourth bedroom with a queen-sized bed provides a calm and restful retreat, also complete with a private bathroom.
Villa Baia is more than a home — it is a feeling. It is where elegance meets tranquility, and where each sunrise invites you to pause. It is where mornings begin with the sound of waves, and evenings unfold beneath a sky full of stars.
Here, you will find the space to unwind, reflect, and reconnect — with yourself and with nature.
