Villa Acalle

Two spaces – two choices with intense architectural interest in a marvellous landscape; an olive grove, a fragrant garden and an infinity pool overlooking the Aegean

Acalle (Acacallis) in Greek mythology was a princess of Crete, daughter of King Minos and Queen Pasiphae. She was in love with two powerful Olympian deities; the dilemma was about Hermes, the herald of the Gods and Apollo, the most handsome of all. Following the binary choice of Acalle, the villa extends into two separate spaces in a one-storey volume; the comfort-stylish living area unites with the opulent sleeping area through a path giving an innovative architectural character. The exterior exudes comfort and luxury, blending in harmony with the geometric form, such as the mesmerizing triangular façade, the natural beauty of the surrounding landscape, endemic shrubs, flowers, and olive trees.

Villa Acalle is in the same area as Villa Ariadne, Villa Androgeus, Villa Deucalion, Villa Phaedra, Villa Glaucus, Villa Catreus and Villa Xenodice; each maintains its privacy. The location is on a slope with olive of Gramvousa, offering a panoramic sea view. The villa’s complex includes a reception and a private parking area. The distance to the beach is just a short walk away, only 2km.

Inside the villa

Villa Acalle contains two different spaces, the daytime and the nighttime area, both placed in one storey, in an area of 65m². Villa Acalle can accommodate up to 2 adults as an ideal retreat for a discerning couple or friends looking for style and a laid-back ambience.

The daytime area is open plan, including a living room, a dining room, a kitchen, and a WC. In the living room, the simple lines of modern furniture coexist peacefully with rustic details from the natural stone cladding on the walls. The fully equipped kitchen has a trend mood in a white shade, and practical Corian work surfaces extend to a contemporary table stand.

The nighttime area comprises a master bedroom, complemented by a dressing room and en-suite bathroom. The feeling of softness on the well-known Coco-Mat® mattresses, in cooperation with the yellow-brown glass partitions, creates a sense of lavishness; this is a promising place for a relaxed sleep experience. The en-suite bathroom has been shaped with grey forged cement and, due to its perimeter openings, allows you to luxuriate a relaxing bath.

Outside Area

“An interior into the exterior” was the idea behind it. The indoor areas are connected visually with the outdoor ones giving the feeling of an individual summer haven. The elongated infinity pool (33m², 10m length x3.3m width, depth of 1.1 to 1.6m) with full-width Roman steps is placed parallel to the sea, offering an idyllic view. A stylish al fresco dining area next to the swimming pool is covered by a tailor-made pergola providing shade whilst letting the healing sun filter through.
