Kykladic-style hotel with 13 apartments, pool, garden and café/bar | Crete

Stunning whitewashed villa in the Cycladic style, currently operating as a successful boutique hotel and offering breathtaking views of the coast thanks to its elevated position. The villa is built with a "residential permit", which is a unique opportunity to either live, work or combine both in the Mediterranean. The well-maintained condition of the building makes it ready to move into and operate. The exceptional property has been built and renovated to a very high standard by the current owners, retaining its authentic Greek character. The villa has 13 apartments, including 2 penthouse suites, totalling 700 m2, while the entire property covers 2,800 m2 and also includes a café, reception, pool and olive grove. After many years of passionate work, it is now time for the owners to take a step back and look for a successor. The business
The successful hotel, which is still in operation, enjoys an excellent reputation, attracts a large number of international guests and is mentioned very positively in renowned magazines and books. In keeping with the hotel's upscale ambience, room rates are at a high level. Room occupancy has been very good for years.
Due to its location and size, the hotel is ideal for weddings, yoga retreats and other special family or business events. Location
On the island of Crete, the villa is located in a quiet spot in the mountain village of Koutouloufari, overlooking the Aegean Sea. The picturesque, traditional villages of Koutouloufari, Piscopiano and Old Hersonissos, all within walking distance, are full of nice little taverns and cafés.
With the airport 25 km away and only 1 km from the sea, this is an ideal location if you are looking for a quiet home base with plenty of entertainment nearby. The villa's central location makes it the perfect starting point for exploring the entire island. The building
The very first stone was laid in 1980, but the villa was built in various phases and renovated several times, most recently in 2023. Everything was done with love, care and craftsmanship using high-quality materials. This is reflected in the well-maintained condition of the building, making it ready to move into and operate. The apartments
The two-storey, whitewashed building in the Cycladic style has 13 spacious apartments, including 2 magnificent penthouse suites with breathtaking views of the sea, the bay and the mountains.
All apartments are stylishly furnished and feature comfortable built-in beds, a spacious living room with a practical kitchenette, a newly renovated bathroom with a large walk-in shower and either a balcony or a terrace overlooking the sea, the bay, the lush garden or the mountains.
Original terracotta and deco cire floors, fresh whitewashed walls, island-style wooden furniture, handmade lace curtains and many other details give the villa its unique character. All apartments are equipped with air conditioning and the water is heated by solar energy. Café, pool, garden & more
The heart of the villa is the sparkling tiled pool (5x10m), which operates with an eco-friendly saltwater system. The pool is surrounded by large wooden pergolas that provide shade for the sun loungers. The charming Kafenion-style café offers a relaxed and comfortable seating area. The bright and airy room, which is shared with a practical reception area, features high wooden ceilings, original terracotta floors and traditional wooden doors and windows. These doors lead to a magnificent terrace overlooking the pool, from where you can enjoy spectacular views of the coast.
The villa is set in a walled, peaceful garden planted with valuable large palm trees, lemon and orange trees, lavender, bougainvillea, jasmine, cacti, herbs and much more. In addition, the rustic olive grove behind the villa produces around 100 litres of organic extra virgin olive oil each year.
There is a useful laundry room for housekeeping and a white wooden garden shed for tools and storage.
