A generous lounge space with a fire pit invites guests to unwind under the starlit Cretan sky, creating unforgettable moments of relaxation. Set within a private 60,000 m² estate, Arion Aesthesis Superior Villa offers safety, seclusion, and complete tranquility. The villa is at its most breathtaking during sunset when the sky transforms into a canvas of stunning red and gold hues. Recognized as an innovative "Cave Style House" project, Arion Aesthesis Superior Villa has been subsidized by the EU - ESPA programs for its eco-friendly design. Built 20 meters into a hillside, the villa naturally harnesses air circulation, drawing in fresh Aegean breezes through large openings at the back of the structure. This architectural technique helps maintain a consistently cool indoor temperature throughout the day. Complemented by a green roof, this design significantly reduces the need for air conditioning, keeping the interior 5-6°C cooler than a conventional house. Additionally, the villa’s thoughtful layout enhances the feeling of absolute seclusion, making you feel completely immersed in nature. Many of the materials used in the villa's construction have been sourced directly from the land itself, including locally quarried stone and native flora, along with high-quality natural elements such as marble and wood. This thoughtful selection enhances the villa’s harmony with its surroundings while maintaining a luxurious feel. The villa’s unique architecture is designed to maximize its breathtaking setting, offering infinity pool views that blend seamlessly into the endless blue of the sea. As the villa is immersed in nature, occasional sightings of insects or small harmless creatures may occur, particularly on humid days. However, professional pest control and all necessary measures have been taken to ensure your comfort throughout your stay.
