Calypso Retreat – A Mediterranean Hideaway of Rare Serenity
Calypso Retreat is a sanctuary of calm and understated elegance — a village home embraced by a lush tropical‑Mediterranean garden and blessed with sweeping views across the Navarino Bay golf course to the shimmering blue of the sea. The property blends traditional village charm with the refined comfort of a contemporary Mediterranean holiday residence. A main house forms the private centre of daily living, while a discreet guest wing offers visitors independence and privacy.
Named after Calypso from Homer’s Odyssey, who lived in timeless tranquillity on a secluded, verdant island, the property embodies the essence of retreat: a place where time slows and nature surrounds you.
I. Main House – Elevated Living with Mediterranean Character
The ground floor opens into an elegant entrance hall with a staircase leading to the home’s signature living space. Two versatile bedrooms create a peaceful private zone, complemented by a fully equipped bathroom.
The upper floor is the architectural highlight: an expansive open‑plan living, dining and kitchen area beneath exposed timber beams that create a warm Mediterranean ambience. The kitchen integrates seamlessly into the layout, while the dining area forms the social centre. A comfortable lounge is enhanced by a charming fireplace corner with wood‑burning stove.
From the west‑facing balcony, the view stretches across the sea and manicured golf landscape — a breathtaking tableau at sunset. To the south, the panorama opens over the Xerias Gorge and rolling Mediterranean hills.
II. Guest Wing – Independent Comfort with Architectural Flair
With its own entrance, the guest wing offers a fully self‑contained living unit ideal for visitors or extended family. The bright open living area with integrated kitchen is enriched by a small wooden mezzanine — perfect as a reading nook or additional sleeping space. A bedroom and modern bathroom complete this comfortable retreat.
An exterior storage room provides space for garden tools, household equipment and seasonal items.
III. Outdoor Living – Mediterranean Elegance Throughout
The property unfolds through a paved driveway framed by vibrant Mediterranean planting. A generous shaded loggia welcomes you at the entrance. Across the grounds, multiple terraces create distinct outdoor living zones: a barbecue kitchen with outdoor fireplace, a pavilion with flowing curtains, and serene lounging areas with hammocks and deckchairs among tropical trees.
A small plunge pool adds refreshing comfort on warm days.
