Luxury Villa for Rent in Crete – Elounda
Luxury Villa for Rent in Crete – Elounda, CRM-3 rests on a hillside above Mirabello Bay, where the whole sweep of the gulf opens below the terraces. The sea lies 70 meters from the house, and the morning light rises over Spinalonga Island and the Kolokitha Peninsula.
Built in stone and glass across three levels, this is a residence shaped for privacy, quiet and long unhurried days by the water, within reach of Elounda, Plaka and Agios Nikolaos yet set apart from them.
Bedrooms & Living Spaces
CRM-3 sleeps twelve guests across six bedrooms, five in the main house and one in a self-contained guesthouse with its own independent access. Every bedroom carries a king bed, individual air-conditioning and a private bathroom, most with both shower and bathtub, and each room opens directly onto the pool deck, a terrace or a private balcony.
The top-level suite adds a walk-in wardrobe, a safe and a writing desk, with the bay held in full view. Interiors follow clean contemporary lines in natural materials and high-quality linen, while two generous living areas, one anchored by a suspended fireplace, give the family room to gather through the day and into the evening.
Private Pool & Outdoor Living
A private heated infinity pool of 54 square meters anchors the outdoor living, edged by sun loungers, umbrellas and a pergola-shaded lounge for slow afternoons. A second pergola holds an al fresco dining area with a built-in sofa and a small bar, while a quiet garden path and the upper balcony offer more secluded corners to take in the gulf. From every level the sea view runs clear across Mirabello Bay to Spinalonga, at its finest in the first hours of the day.
Amenities & On-Site Services
The main living level is served by a fully equipped kitchen with professional appliances and an espresso machine, with a second kitchen on the ground floor and a kitchenette in the guesthouse. Climate control runs throughout the residence, and there is secure private parking on site for cars, scooters and ATVs.
Beyond the villa itself, guests have access to the services of the adjacent five-star hotel, from in-room dining to spa, fitness and a shared tennis court, each arranged on request.
