Villa Aykroyd

Description

Constructed using stone from the island’s Psiloritis Mountain, this magnificent five storey villa perfectly combines tradition with modernity to honour the family’s historical name and origins.

The exterior is truly remarkable, offering impressive block-style architecture and boasting breathtaking views over the landscape and out to the Mediterranean Sea. Surrounded by a rose garden and perennial olive trees, you can enjoy the Cretan warmth in complete privacy and tranquility.

Spend quiet days playing games on the lawn, cooling off in the pool, soaking in the sun on the poolside deck, or evening visiting the estate’s private church. Ideal for entertaining both friends and family, there is also an outdoor kitchen complete with a BBQ, as well as two huge tables to choose from for a spot of al fresco dining.

Stepping inside, the home has been expertly designed with modern features and local natural wood throughout, allowing you to relax in style. Two lounges feature lavish seating, the fully-equipped kitchen is complete with state-of-the-art appliances, and there are further indoor dining areas should you need.

For an additional taste of luxury, be sure to unwind in the home’s sauna and make use of the private bar. Six superb bedrooms are found in this villa, with the master suite boasting a walk-in closet, fireplace, and panoramic views from the veranda.
