Rent Villa Asime Greece

Wake up and see the sea, when you vacation in Villa Asime, nestled into the hillside on the west coast of the Greek island of Crete, in the azure waters of the Aegean Sea. This incredible ultra-modern villa has four spacious double bedrooms, and can comfortably accommodate up to eight guests. The detached, three-storey villa is set in two thousand square metres of grounds, that is home to lush green lawns, a sea view terrace, and your own private infinity swimming pool.

Villa Asime commands sweeping sea views over the famous Falasarna Bay, regularly voted one of the top ten beaches in Europe, and within walking distance of your holiday home. This architect-designed property is constructed out of local stone, which is used throughout the villa, glass-fronted terraces and balconies, and floor-to-ceiling windows, to maximise those magnificent views. The villa comes complete with secure parking, and complimentary air conditioning and Wi-Fi throughout. The interiors are stunning, the attention to detail is meticulous, the furnishings are cool and contemporary, there’s lots of natural wood, and the décor is a sophisticated colour palette of crisp, clean whites, with shades of grey and beige, and hues of blues highlights.

Enter the villa at ground floor level, where you will find a breathtaking, bright, and breezy, open plan, sea view living space. The seating area has a soft grey designer sofa, a turquoise velvet chair, and a coffee table, facing a flat-screen satellite television. The smart six-seater dining set is ideal for some impressive indoor entertaining. The adjacent white and silver grey kitchen is fully equipped with all the appliances you will need to cater for your holiday, including a family-size fridge freezer with a water dispenser. The first of the four beautifully-appointed bedrooms can be found on this floor. The bedroom has a queen size bed, smart TV, picture window sea views, an ensuite shower room, and pool access, perfect for a swim before breakfast. A guest cloakroom completes the ground floor.

Take the stairs to the upper floor, where there are two double bedrooms, both with handcrafted fitted furniture, ensuite shower rooms, and glass-fronted sea-view balconies. One room has a convertible king-size bed, the other has a queen-size bed and a smart TV. Take the stairs to the lower level, where there is a second large living area, a double bedroom with a queen size bed, a separate shared shower room, and a laundry room with a washer and dryer. The seating area has two toffee-coloured sofas, a smart TV, a PlayStation5 console, and board games. There is a full-size, fully-equipped kitchen to rustle up some supper whilst watching your favourite films and serve it at the six-seater dining set.

Step out onto the uninterrupted sea view tiled terrace, which is home to a superb centrepiece, ladder entry, and infinity swimming pool. The pool is surrounded by state-of-the-art, deep-cushioned, sun loungers, with coconut-matting parasols for shade. A soft seating area is perfectly positioned under the veranda, with mesmerising sea views. Sunbathe on the well-manicured lawn, and enjoy a game of ping pong, before cooling down under the refreshing outdoor shower. As dusk falls, gather on the terrace for cocktails and watch the famous fire-red sunsets. Take a seat at the eight-seater dining set, and feast alfresco under the twinkling stars, with dishes freshly grilled from the barbeque.

Villa Asime is perfectly positioned overlooking the much acclaimed Falasarna beach, on the west coast of the Greek island of Crete, in the azure waters of the Aegean Sea. The villa is a scenic sixty-eight kilometres drive from Chania International Airport, and fifty-seven from the port of Souda if you are island hopping. The stunning Falasarna sandy beaches are just eight hundred metres from the villa, a steep walk downhill to turquoise blue seas, famous for its water sports, including jet skiing, windsurfing, paragliding, and fishing. For those who prefer a more relaxing day, the west-facing beach delivers the most breathtakingly beautiful sky on fire sunsets.

The west coast is home to some of Crete’s best beaches, go north to scuba dive in Kissamos and Balos, and go south to Sfinari, and the must-see pink sands of Elafonisi. The village of Falasarna has a minimarket for your holiday supplies, and a handful of cafes, bars, and tavernas to sample the local fare. The history of the area can be found at the Hellenistic fort and the ancient inland harbour.  Go to Chania, and stroll the narrow streets of the old town, walk down to the Venetian harbour, and view the sixteenth-century lighthouse. Visit the Nautical and Archaeological Museums, then meander around the Municipal Gardens, before enjoying a delicious dinner of freshly caught fish at a waterfront restaurant. See the port of Souda, home to the archaeological site of ancient Aptera, and an Ottoman fort. Explore the three hundred caves the island hides, hike over hillsides, streams, and rocky ravines to discover watermills and ruins, and stop along the way at a local winery to taste the fruits of the many vineyards.

All aboard a boat trip, where you can swim and snorkel, or scuba dive underwater ruins, before sunbathing on deck. Spend the day in the port town of Heraklion. Visit the ancient Palace of Knossos, and the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, walk along the Venetian walls, and stroll through the old quarter, where you can shop for souvenirs. Go further afield to Vai, Crete’s easternmost tip, where you will find lush forests and a unique date palm. Explore Psychro Cave, reputedly the birthplace of Zeus, and rock climb Mount Ida to find the Ideon Cave. Sitia Geopark is three hundred and fifty square kilometres of the island’s diverse ecosystem, where you can trek through gorges, bathe on beaches, walk the wetlands, and bird-watch. Hike the Richtis Gorge, stroll through streams to reach the twenty-metre waterfall, and then can cool off in the inviting pool.

Find solace in the fifteenth-century Toplou Monastery, and admire its beautiful Byzantine icons. From the exclusive town of Elounda take a boat tour to the intriguing island of Spinalonga, once a former leper colony with a Venetian fortress, and now an open-air museum. Go to the harbour town of Agios Nikolaos, which uniquely houses a lake in its centre, with an Archaeological Museum full of Minoan treasures, and lots of shops, cafes, bars, and restaurants in which to sit, and watch the local life go by.
