Phaedra - Cuatro Habitaciones Villa, Capacidad 8

A spacious and welcoming villa with large infinity pool, wide-open sea views and terraces galore.

Close to all that's best about northern Paros, from beaches to picturesque towns and villages, Phaedra has an easy-going soul and a warmth of spirit. Its generously proportioned, versatile interiors spill outside at every opportunity, tempting guests to make the very most of the 15m-long infinity pool and the well-equipped, well-designed al fresco spaces. Life at Phaedra is simple, practical and carefree.

Inside: accommodation at Phaedra is spread over three floors of a main house and an externally accessed guest suite.

The front door of the main house opens to reveal a splendidly well-proportioned open-plan communal area on two levels. Down a couple of steps to the left is the living area, with two comfy sofas flanking a fireplace, while to the right is the well-equipped kitchen with central island and the panoramic dining area. White-washed stone walls, lofty wood-beamed ceilings and multiple windows create a bright, airy atmosphere, while a series of glass doors allow the space to flow outside seamlessly. Here and there, particularly where the light fixtures are concerned, the décor hints at the owners travels in North Africa but homage is also made to classic Cycladic design.

A few steps to one side of the kitchen lead up onto a corridor, off which the rest of the house is accessed. To one side is a shower room serving a luminous, triple-aspect double bedroom with terrace access, while to the other a staircase leads up and down to the first and lower floors.

The first floor is home to the main bedroom, a double with walk-through open en-suite shower room, fabulous sea views and access to a panoramic terrace.

The lower floor, meanwhile, hosts an extremely large double-twin bedroom with en-suite shower room.

The guesthouse suite is accessed from a lower terrace and comprises a sea-view living area with L-shaped sofa, a kitchen corner, a double bedroom and an separate shower room. A feature of this space are the wood and cane beamed ceilings.

Outside: the ground floor of Phaedra flows out onto a wonderful sweep of sea-view terrace. The focal point is the 15m-long L-shaped infinity pool, which offers swimmers great views out to sea and across to Naxos. Echoing the dimensions of, and flanking the pool is a large covered section of terrace, which comes with well-cushioned built-in seating, easy chairs, a dining table, and a kitchen-bar with island work space, a fridge, a sink, a barbecue and a wood-burning oven. This is the perfect spot for those who love to cook al fresco while looking out to sea.

Steps at the end of the pool lead down to another swathe of terrace, part of which, outside the guest suite, is covered and furnished with comfy outdoor furniture.

Last, but not least (for those lucky enough to occupy the main bedroom) is the large terrace on the first floor, from where vast vistas pan out over the north of Paros and across the sea to Naxos.

Phaedra features a fantastic infinity pool, offering swimmers stunning views while in the pool. There is a drop off the infinity side so we recommend children are supervised at all times. Please refer to our general safety page if you would like more information about infinity pools.
