REGIONAL INFORMATION FOR THE GREEK ISLANDS
GREEK ISLANDS
Already a well-established
tourist destination Greece and its islands continue
to attract high visitor numbers every year.
Combining its ancient culture and history with
excellent food, wine and climate, it is beginning to
lure a wide spectrum of buyers. In addition to those
looking to retire or buy a holiday home, younger
buyers are now looking to invest as part of a
lifestyle enhancement/ investment - combining
personal enjoyment with the potential for capital
gain.
Property development throughout the Greek
Islands of Crete and Santorini is strictly
controlled and planning permissions are only granted
in exceptional circumstances.
CRETE
Crete,
the largest island in Greece and second in the
Eastern Mediterranean, lies 160km from the Greek
mainland. Our properties in Crete are found in the
region of Chania with its varying landscape of
mountains, valleys, villages, endless sandy beaches
and rocky shoreline. It also boasts ancient and
modern monuments, a Venetian harbour and a colourful
old town with friendly local people.
Our unique
beachside development, called Aphrodite, mixes
cutting-edge design and comfort inspired by
traditional Mediterranean living. Exclusively using
local materials, with lush landscaped gardens in
local styles, the development is fully in keeping
with the local environment. Aphrodite comprises
apartments and villas with a large shared pool, bar,
restaurant and clubhouse, shop and games room.
Mixing modern and traditional, our properties in
Crete are never far from marinas as well as
pre-Roman ruins, historic amphitheatres and
tavernas.
SANTORINI
Santorini, the ancient
jewel of the Aegean, is a circular collection of
islands. Our properties in Santorini are found
within easy reach of Kamira village and just 200m
from the Monolithos-Kamari beach. The small town of
Santorini is overlooked by towering cliffs and tiny
white houses; seemingly plunging straight into the
depths of the sea.
Named after the island, our properties comprise Greek Island style villas with classic sky blue and white washed exteriors that so perfectly complement and respect the nature and architecture of the island. Villas come with two or three bedrooms, landscaped gardens, and many have their own pools. Local building materials are used wherever possible, including local stones and reclaimed timbers. Both islands have their own international airports.
