Mira

A fabulous place for a family holiday, this very contemporary villa has been furnished with flair and panache by its Greek owner, from naïve artworks in its uncluttered bedrooms, to an excellent al fresco ‘living room’ in the shade of a huge poolside pergola furnished with a large dining table and ample stylish comfortable chairs and sofas. On the ground floor a cheerful breakfast kitchen is open plan to a convivial social space, stylishly furnished in chalk and clay tones, with a dining room, ample seating in two sitting areas, and arty lighting adding quirky character. This room and a spacious adjacent bedroom each open out to the tiled terrace surrounding a sizeable swimming pool, while three first floor bedrooms have doors to a balcony or to the furnished, shaded upper terrace with glorious sea views.

All bedrooms are supremely comfortable with large beds and fine linens. Air-conditioned throughout, the well-equipped villa has satellite TV’s in all the guest rooms, a large screen version in the sitting room, and a games room with table tennis and a treadmill. Gorgeous gardens are planted with roses, herbs and citrus trees, and Mira‘s hillside setting is just 700 from a taverna, a prestigious winery within very easy reach and just 3km from shops and waterfront tavernas around the yacht-haven harbour of Sivota.
