Ever wondered what silence truly sounds like? Just a 10-minute drive from Elounda, surrounded by a lush Mediterranean garden and positioned directly above the sea, Villa Palace is a luxury Crete retreat ready to welcome you into its peaceful kingdom.
This refined eight-bedroom villa accommodates up to 16 guests, inspiring you to slip off your shoes, release all tension, and immerse yourself in the calm, soul-soothing energy of Greece. Bring your group and settle into uninterrupted blue horizons with the gentle soundtrack of nature.
A vast hillside of native plants is yours to wander, with nothing between you and the Aegean Sea. Disconnect and reconnect amid stunning views of endless blue meeting the horizon. If the vista ever loses its hold, enjoy friendly matches on the Davis-Cup-sized tennis court or boules court. For a refreshing pause on hot days, slip into the pool or stroll to the private wooden platform by the sea — complete with sun loungers, a fridge for drinks, and a ladder for diving into crystal-clear waters. Return to the shaded terrace for an alfresco barbecue, where Crete’s fresh produce lets simple flavours shine.
Divided into the main property and a separate cottage, this seafront villa in Crete offers plenty of communal spaces for the group alongside private corners for quiet retreat. Curated artwork, collected pieces, and classic furnishings create a subtle Italian-palazzo atmosphere, while abundant natural light floods the interiors, deepening the sense of peace. A fully equipped kitchen opens to a terrace for seamless indoor-outdoor flow, and all eight bedrooms are elegantly decorated in individual styles, each with plush linens that promise restful, uninterrupted sleep.
Villa Palace is only a 10-minute drive from Elounda, where shops, bars, and restaurants line the harbour, and beautiful beaches are easily reached. Private sea access is via a wooden platform — though the shoreline is steep, so it suits confident swimmers on calm days. The on-site stone chapel and panoramic setting make the villa ideal for wedding ceremonies, while the layout and privacy also suit creative productions or wellness and corporate retreats. For guests preferring full dining service, a booking option is available with a Relais & Châteaux chef and wait staff preparing three meals a day. Travelcube’s concierge is always happy to arrange any special details to make your stay effortless and unforgettable.
