This is a very special two-level seafront property near Chania - called a villa, in Greece - with a sensational, unobstructed view of the Mediterranean. The shared 15-metre pool is only metres from the coast - you can hear the sea from every room. A beach is only five minutes down the road. Nestled in a secluded corner of Crete, SEASCAPE is architect-designed, with high ceilings, and spacious rooms. But mostly there’s the astonishing view, the peace of the area, and the sound of the sea.

Alice and her husband live in London, where he is a Professor Emeritus at the University of London and Alice works as a Their daughter is about to take up her Presidential Scholarship at Harvard for her Ph.D. Alice and her husband are roughly equally addicted to classical music and to tennis and - in addition to their second home in Crete - also own two delightfully disobedient long-haired dachshunds. The property is owned by a University of London professor and his wife works as a professional cellist. Alice is available by email, but our local manager will greet guests, hand over the keys, arrange for the professional cleaner and assist with any urgent issues that might arise.

Check out Chorafakia, Stavros and Kalathas to get the idea - there's nowhere with more unspoiled beaches, amazing food, and ancient culture on tap than Crete! A car is definitely recommended, as we are not in the village, though near to Horafakia [Chorafakia]. (We can recommend car rental if helpful.)
