Each villa is thoughtfully arranged over three levels, connected by an internal marble staircase, with one bedroom and one bathroom on each level. This practical layout provides an excellent balance between shared living spaces and personal privacy, making the villas particularly suitable for families, couples travelling together, and groups of friends.
Upon entering the villa on the ground floor, guests are welcomed into a bright and comfortable open-plan living space. To the left is the inviting lounge area, perfect for relaxing after a day at the beach, while to the right is the fully equipped kitchen with its dining area, providing everything needed for preparing and enjoying meals. Large French doors open directly onto the furnished outdoor terrace, allowing natural light to fill the interior and creating a pleasant connection between indoor and outdoor living. The ground floor also features the first bedroom, furnished with two single beds, along with a separate bathroom equipped with a shower and WC.
An elegant internal marble staircase leads to the upper floor, where guests will find the second bedroom, featuring two single beds and a private en-suite bathroom with a shower and WC. This bedroom also benefits from access to a lovely furnished veranda overlooking the beautiful Cretan Sea. With comfortable outdoor furniture and refreshing sea breezes, the veranda is a wonderful place to enjoy a morning coffee, read a book, or simply admire the coastal surroundings and peaceful Mediterranean atmosphere.
The same internal staircase connects the ground floor with the lower level of the villa, offering additional accommodation and recreational facilities. This level features the third bedroom, furnished with two single beds, as well as a separate bathroom with a shower and WC. Guests can also enjoy a spacious open-plan recreational area equipped with a table tennis table and a mini gym, providing opportunities for entertainment and light exercise without leaving the villa. The lower level offers additional privacy and independence, particularly convenient for families or groups travelling together.
All three bedrooms are individually air-conditioned and equipped with modern flat-screen televisions, ensuring a comfortable and pleasant stay. Each bedroom features two single beds that can be converted into a double bed with the addition of a suitable mattress topper, allowing flexible sleeping arrangements according to guests' preferences. With three bedrooms and three bathrooms distributed across three interconnected levels, each villa comfortably accommodates up to six guests.
The outdoor areas have been carefully designed to make the most of Crete's wonderful Mediterranean climate and the exceptional beachfront setting. Stepping through the French doors from the living area, guests reach a welcoming private terrace furnished with comfortable outdoor seating and a dining table. A shaded pergola provides the perfect setting for leisurely breakfasts, family lunches, or relaxed evening meals outdoors.
The highlight of the outdoor space is the private 25 m² swimming pool, surrounded by a sunbathing area with comfortable sun loungers and umbrellas. Whether enjoying a refreshing morning swim, relaxing beside the pool, or spending quality time with loved ones, guests can enjoy the freedom and privacy of their own outdoor retreat, with the beautiful sandy beach just a few steps away.
Blue Oyster Beach Villas consists of six independent three-bedroom villas, each offering its own private swimming pool, furnished outdoor areas, and comfortable accommodation across three levels. The layout of the complex combines the convenience of staying close to family and friends with the independence of having a separate villa. This makes the property an excellent choice not only for individual families and small groups but also for larger families or groups of friends wishing to spend their holidays together while maintaining their own private living spaces.
