About this property

Villa Kallisto

The elevated position delivers absolutely glorious panoramic sea and mountain views from the balcony or through the wall to wall windows at first floor level. Villa Kallisto enjoys a tranquil rural setting, within fairly easy walking distance of the sandy beaches, shops and tavernas of Almyrida , especially in the cool of the evening.
Clean lines and an uncluttered dove grey facade make a bold statement of modernity but Villa Kallisto nevertheless sits surprisingly at ease amongst the olive trees. Far removed from ancient Cretan dwellings this is Nectarios and Penny (who also own Villa Nynemia) second Villa built in the style and taste of a new age.
The beautiful salt water pool is surrounded by the olive grove.

Location Almyrida
Standing on a terraced hillside a little under 2 km from Almyrida, Villa Kallisto is set amongst 5,000sqm of olive groves. It's a 25min downhill walk into the laid back small resort of Almyrida with mini markets and other small shops and taverna tables on the waterfront.
2 kms inland, the pretty village of Gavalohori offers a further choice of excellent tavernas and a baker amongst its streets.
The beautiful Venetian harbours of Chania and Rethymnon are both easy to visit from Villa Kallisto and a trip into the nearby mountains is unmissable.

Tom

A Great Villa !
Great location, clean, well equipped, nice sized pool with good outside furniture. Owner was very welcoming and the housekeeping was thorough Main concern was that for late September/October the pool really needs heating as it was very cool to get in. We wouldn’t travel so late again unless there was a heated pool. A couple of the sliding doors wouldn’t lock properly and a couple of electric sockets were a little loose. The stairs really need an arm rail and the sofa was quite low for getting up from. Some people with mobility problems might find the stairs a problem. Small improvement though, not major problems!

A superb, luxurious, and superbly located holiday base.
Villa Kallisto is a relatively recently built, modern villa that is situated on a hillside above and only 1.5km from the popular small, quiet-ish resort of Almyrida. It is designed and built in the “upside down” style, with the main open plan living area, kitchen, and balcony on the first floor, and the three double/twin bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and shower, on the ground floor, with sliding french windows opening onto the secluded swimming pool area. Clearly, the reason for the upside down design is to maximise the splendid views from the hillside out over the olive groves to the bay on which Almyrida beac More hooks for towels, etc in all the shower rooms.

Fantastisk udsigt
Lækker villa med fænomenal udsigt. Ligger dog for langt fra byen, da man skal starte bil hver gang.
