As you leave behind the sun-drenched charm of Elounda, driving along a scenic road that leads directly to the Aegean Sea, you’ll find yourself immersed in the vibrant colors and fragrances of Crete. Nestled in this idyllic landscape, Villa Olivia emerges as a stunning private residence - a 900 sqm architectural gem set within 4,875 sqm of exquisitely landscaped grounds, offering breathtaking sea views and direct access to a private sandy beach.

Designed by the renowned Italian architecture and design firm Studio D73, led by Marco Vismara & Andrea Viganò, and brought to life by Mirum Group, Villa Olivia is a testament to luxury, craftsmanship, and harmony with nature.

Spanning three floors, the villa complex also includes a Guest House and a fully equipped Summer House, allowing for the seamless hosting of guests while preserving the utmost privacy of the main residence.

From the moment you step through the grand entrance, the mesmerizing blue of the sea unfolds before you, while a majestic, centuries-old olive tree—the villa’s namesake—welcomes you into this oasis of tranquility. Meandering pathways shaded by lush Mediterranean flora, aromatic herbs, and vibrant agaves lead you through a variety of thoughtfully designed gardens.

Villa Olivia boasts a spacious Spanish-style courtyard, perfect for social gatherings, featuring a large dining table for 12 guests. An infinity pool with a solarium, bar, and changing area provides the ideal setting for sun-drenched afternoons and ultimate relaxation.

The architects have masterfully played with different heights and levels, infusing dynamism into the villa’s exterior architecture. The spectacular swimming pool is strategically elevated above the lush gardens, which gently slope down to sea level, ensuring a seamless transition from the villa to the private shoreline.

Villa Olivia is not just a residence - it is an experience, where luxury meets the essence of the Mediterranean, creating a retreat of timeless beauty and serenity.
