GALEA VILLA, CRETE, CHANIA
A Modern Sea-View Retreat
Villa Galea is a contemporary luxury residence in Marathi, designed for guests seeking uninterrupted sea views, privacy, and modern elegance.
Set in an elevated position overlooking Souda Bay and the White Mountains, the villa offers a deep sense of calm while remaining just minutes from the soft sandy shores of Marathi Beach.
Spread across two levels, the property accommodates up to eight guests in four beautifully appointed bedrooms, three of them en-suite. The open-plan living area brings together the sitting room, dining space, and fully equipped kitchen, all framed by large glass panels that invite natural light and showcase the panoramic landscape. A dedicated business corner on the upper level caters to guests who may need to work during their stay, while a fully equipped gym with its own bathroom is located on the lower level.
Outdoors, the villa reveals one of its strongest highlights: a 90 m² private pool with a children’s section and built-in seating area, multiple terraces with unobstructed sea views, a fully equipped BBQ area, and an elevated dining terrace ideal for long summer evenings under the Cretan sky. Every corner of the exterior has been designed to encourage open-air living from morning until night.
Villa Galea is a modern retreat where refined design meets the natural beauty of Crete. Whether for families or groups of friends, it offers a seamless blend of comfort, tranquility, and breathtaking views – a home that leaves a lasting impression long after departure.
