Aethra

Aethra frames everyday life against the open water of Elounda Bay, with views reaching across Spinalonga to the mountains beyond. This newly built hilltop villa above the traditional hamlet of Mavrikiano offers 420 m² of living space on a private, gated plot of 4,000 m², combining Cycladic architecture with terraced Cretan stonework.

The main level anchors the residence with an open-plan living and dining space flowing around a contemporary kitchen with a central island. Floor-to-ceiling glazing dissolves the boundary between interior and terrace, while handmade Indonesian furniture and décor lend warmth and texture throughout. Five spacious double bedrooms, including walk-in closet storage, complete the accommodation — each positioned to capture the sea panorama.

The 210 m² lower level adds a dimension rarely found in private villas: a conference room, a cellar, a private disco and ample storage. The outdoor areas are shaped for relaxed Mediterranean living. An infinity-edge swimming pool with a swim-up table commands the bay view, complemented by a sunken lounge, a curved outdoor bar and kitchen with built-in BBQ, and a jacuzzi. Pergola-shaded dining and lounge zones, landscaped gardens with mature palms and cypress, private parking and terraced stone walls complete the grounds while preserving complete privacy.

Aethra sits above Mavrikiano, the historic village adjoining Elounda in the Lasithi region, minutes from Elounda’s beaches, waterfront restaurants and marina, and around an hour from Heraklion International Airport. The area combines authentic village character with some of the most sought-after resort infrastructure in Greece, enjoying 300 days of annual sunshine.
The property represents a compelling opportunity within Elounda’s tightly supplied luxury market, where demand from international buyers consistently exceeds availability.
