Perched on a hillside overlooking nearby Sitia and the sea, shiny new Isidora sums up everything we look for in a Simpson Travel villa.
Laden with contemporary style and comfort, it comes with mesmerising views and is just a ten-minute drive from a charming and still very authentically Cretan town.
A location like this is a gift for an architect – and one that has not been squandered. With floor-to-ceiling glass, a double-height living space and natural, seaside-inspired colours, the villa is light-filled and airy, with magnificent views from the terraces, gardens and swimming pool.
Clever design means that while the views are huge, the pool and its attractive stone terrace are nicely private, so you can enjoy this sublime spot in peace all day long and into the soft rosy glow of a Cretan evening.
The villa works well for families, offering three en-suite bedrooms and generous living space both inside and out. The terrace is a perfect setting for relaxed alfresco dining, but you’ll also want to explore the wonderful tavernas and ouzeries along the seafront in Sitia.
With a sandy beach and attractive hillside setting, Sitia is one of the most appealing towns in the area, where low-key tourism rubs along happily with the altogether more ancient trades of olive growing and wine producing.
The stunning beach of Vai (a 30-minute drive away) is undeniably more touristy, but worth a visit to experience the only palm tree forest in Europe, and the remainder of this unspoilt eastern end of the island is easily explored by hire car.
