VILLA KORE ELAFONISSI

The stone, the water, the mountain, the sea, the rock , the cliff, the wind talking in tongues among the olive trees, telling old tales of heroes and gods, of labyrinths, of Minotaurs and other monstrous creatures, of powerful demigod kings, of forbidden loves, of pirates, and lost submerged continents.
The silence, the peace , the banana trees, the beach, the waves, the sand , the sunsets , the moons on the sea, the freshly laid eggs, the goats and the lambs, the butterflies , the gold fish in the fountain , the wild thyme, the strawberry tree, the mediterranean heather and their honey, the grapes, the ouzo, the raki, the wine , the salt from the sea, the extra virgin olive oil. The sundial slowly drawing the hours, the home made cheese, the wilderness, the comfort , the cosiness, the liveliness and the idleness, a total relax in the sun, in the history, in the myths , in the nature , in the cradle of the Western civilisation. And again, and always, and everywhere , and forever the sea.
A brand new two-storey villa surrounded by olive groves, entirely built with local stone and furnished in the traditional Cretan style, with air conditioning in every room provided by a geothermal system exploiting the water from the well, with near zero energy consumption.
Kitchen equipped with all modern facilities and appliances and with a supply of basic spices and dressings, and if you don' t feel like cooking you can find good typical tavernas nearby which also deliver your food at home.
A modern 12 x 4 mt. swimming pool with water jets, loungers and gazebo. Subtropical garden with citrus and fruit trees, aromatic herbs, sweet-smelling flowers, a fountain with water lilies and golden fish.
Fully equipped barbecue area, with a spit and a stone table, and a small kitchen garden from which you can pick the essentials to prepare your own Greek salad.
Open terrace and veranda with a magnificent view on an ample stretch of the Cretan Sea, with its breathtaking sunsets and, in the night, a million stars appearing just when the jasmine starts to spread its sweet fragrance. A friendly and cosy fireplace for the colder season.
Just a few miles away from the wonderful and well-known beaches of Elafonissi, Balos, Falasarna and from other hidden coves we will show you and from gorges offering an ideal environment for trekking.
Not just a holiday , but a holiday you will remember and cherish forever.
Come to spend a week closer to the ancient gods, in search of your roots, returning to where it all began.
We speak your language. We understand your heart.



I am Kore, the youth, the innocence, the lightness
I am the Goddess of the Flower
A season in the nature and in the life of every woman.
I have known the darkness of Hades,
I have tasted the seeds of the pomegranate
thus recovering my name: Persephone the Dreadful
Silent Lady of the Kingdom of The Dead
Only after passing through the threshold of darkness
and after crossing the world of the shadows
I may reascend to the light
holding in my hands the sacred pomegranate
the symbol of the eternal coming back
