As soon as you leave behind the sunny Elounda, driving through the road leading directly to the Aegean, among the colors and scents of the Crete Island in Greece, you will come across the wonderful Villa Olivia. It is a private residence of 900 sqm surrounded by 4875 sqm of exquisitely landscaped terrains  and overlooking directly the sea through a private sandy beach. The Project, realized by the Italian design and architecture Studio D73, with its well-known architects Marco Vismara & Andrea Viganò and brought to life by Mirum Group.


Villa Olivia is built on three floors and the complex includes a Guest House and a Summer House completely equipped to host numerous guests without interfering with the privacy of the main Villa.


At the very moment you cross the main entrance, the blue of the sea spreads in front of you and Villa Olivia welcomes you with a majestic, centuries-old olive tree: the tree after which the Villa was named. Shady paths that cross the lush garden, Mediterranean flowers, aromatic plants and agaves will guide you and make you discover the different types of gardens the Villa can boast of, including a convivial and spacious Spanish yard, where you can find a big table for 12 people and an infinity pool with solarium, bar and changing room, which is the perfect place to take your time and relax during the afternoons. The architects played skillfully with different heights and levels of floors, all this adds to the dynamic spirit to the external architecture: the spectacular swimming pool stands above the magnificent garden, which is on the sea level and has a direct entry to the Villa.    


On the road level, you can enter the noble part of the house: the entrance leads to a large living area with a dining room, a kitchen, an office and a service area. The staircase, adorned with wrought iron banisters that evoke traditional Cretan decorations, exclusively designed by D73 for this project, takes you up and downstairs.
Upstairs you will find the two main bedrooms, with spacious walk-in wardrobes and private bathrooms.


From one of them, you can access a large terrace overlooking the sea, an external Jacuzzi and sunbathing lounge area. Another bedroom leads to a sea-view veranda.


On the lower floor of the house, at the sea level and with a direct access to the garden, you will find a large living area with a kitchen and four guest bedrooms, each of them equipped with a private bathroom, all featuring an astonishing view of the Aegean Sea.


The interior design of Villa Olivia can be defined as Mediterranean style with a contemporary touch. White, beige and dove-grey colors, carefully chosen to warm up the atmosphere, are combined with blue color touches that recall the bond with Greece as well as with earth, water and air. The materials’ thorough choice – natural stones, marble, wood and wrought iron – is thought to strengthen the continuity between landscape and architecture. All the details have been conceived to create a charming architecture connected to an elegant interior design. You can breathe the Hellenic essence harmonically combined with modern elements in every corner of this splendid Villa. All this is created to give an absolute comfort to you and your guests.
