Architects always speak of "siting", locating and orienting the structure in harmony with the topography, light and spirit of the place. This house is set high up above the beach in the olive groves overlooking calm waters and sunsets, so "siting" in spades! Very private as well. The accommodations are modern but with an older aristocratic villa aesthetic. The hosts were extremely kind and helpful, very responsive to all requests. Its location, though, is not for the faint of heart or those with orthopedic issues. The walks to the beach are steep (both stairs and road). Walks to the nearest village are challenging. The mostly unpaved road to the villa is not recommended for large vehicles and ill-prepared drivers, 4WD is best. That said, this is a place you can spend all day relaxing and nourishing the eyes and soul. It's all an adventure so go with the flow. This is an exceptional place and my guests were absolutely smitten. Don't miss it.
