Have you ever dreamt at staying in a villa fit for royalty which is virtually attached to a beautiful sandy beach? Well if 2012 comes with aspirations to turn dreams into reality, then fulfil such desires by staying at villa Blue Sea in Maleme, Crete.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This stunning two bedroom two bathroom luxury villa in Crete<\/a> can sleep up to four guests and boasts a unique Cubist design, benefiting irrevocably from its close proximity to Maleme beach that is practically an extension of its garden!<\/p>\n

If you were asked to sum up Crete\u2019s landscape in a few words, \u2018palm trees\u2019, \u2018sunsets\u2019, \u2018beautiful beaches\u2019 and \u2018magnificent mountains\u2019 might spring to mind.<\/p>\n

All these quintessentially Cretan components can be found at Blue Sea, where exotic palm trees line the pathway approaching the villa and a large private pool boasts wonderful views of the sea below, which at dusk is home to breathtaking \u2018picture postcard\u2019 sunsets, all of which are framed majestically by a range of mountains standing tremendously in the distance.<\/p>\n

This whitewashed villa, being open-plan, minimalist, spacious, bright and airy provides some much-needed chill from the strong Cretan sun. The property benefits from a refreshing, bright and contemporary d\u00e9cor, with many intriguingly avant-garde features such as a cement staircase which augments the uniqueness of this charming villa.<\/p>\n

Blue Sea\u2019s master bedroom is particularly impressive with views casting one\u2019s eyes upon the tiny island of Thodorou, a mere pebble in a mighty, menacing yet alluring ocean!<\/p>\n

Simply wonder past the villa\u2019s wooden decking area, past the pool and through its well-kept lawns and you will find yourself at the beach of Maleme, where snorkeling, fishing, sunbathing and swimming are all carried out in almost equal doses.<\/p>\n

This delightful Cretan village enjoys an enviable position between the rivers of Gerani and Tavrontis where, despite its unassuming size, has several minimarkets and a handful of seafront tavernas, where one can enjoy lunch in the most enviable of surroundings.<\/p>\n
