Modern Retreats with Timeless Views

A Hillside Hideaway

Built along and into a sun-warmed hill overlooking the Messara Valley, our three thoughtfully-designed houses settle quietly into an ancient landscape.

Each offers a private space where clean lines frame sweeping views from mountains to Mediterranean, centered around a shared infinity pool that mirrors the panorama.

A short, quiet walk brings you to the charming tavernas of Sivas village, while just 15 minutes by car opens up some of Crete's most spectacular beaches.

From your terrace, catch glimpses of the ancient Minoan Palace of Phaistos with the majestic Psiloritis mountains rising beyond.

The perfect balance of culture, nature, and relaxation awaits.

The Main House

Our spacious main house offers an open-concept living area with panoramic mountain and sea views, two comfortable bedrooms, and a fully-equipped kitchen.

The Guesthouses

Carved into the natural hillside, our modern guesthouses blend into the landscape while providing a cozy bedroom, stylish living area, functional kitchen, and secluded private patio.

Reserve our entire hillside retreat—main house and both guesthouses—for an unforgettable Cretan experience to share with family or friends.

"The area is great - an easy walk to the village of Sivas, with plenty of options for restaurants. Several lovely beach options as well, just 10 - 15 minutes away."

The place and experience

"Their apartment has everything you need, with quality objects and minimalist design, perfectly reflecting the idea that 'form follows the function'."
— Camille and Philippe, Lower Guesthouse

"The view is fantastic and the houses -despite their modernity- fit perfectly into the classic landscape. We always had the shared pool to ourselves and as all three houses are built with so much privacy, you usually have the feeling of being the only guest on the property."
— Kerstin, Lower Guesthouse
