Scarlet Heights

In a pristine location on the westside of Crete, this exclusive development of four high-end villas offers tranquillity, privacy and modern amenities in a sustainable way.

Each of the four 129 sqm villas is developed on its own 1,000 sqm plot, offering breathtaking views of the sea and the surrounding countryside. The villas unfold over two floors, and there are two designs:

Type A villas consist of a lower floor housing the open-plan living/dining room and kitchen, one bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a guest WC, and a staircase connecting it to the upper floor. The upper floor comprises two bedrooms, both with ensuite bathrooms.

Type B villas comprise a lower floor housing three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and a staircase leading to the upper floor. The upper floor houses the spacious open-plan living/dining room and kitchen as well as a guest WC.

The large infinity swimming pool and sunbathing terrace are on the living room level in both villa types. Both villa types also feature large balconies with sea and countryside views, while their landscaped gardens (and green roofs) will feature a variety of local and exotic flora. The villas are equipped with heat pumps as well as fire detection systems. The floor-to-ceiling sliding doors opening to the terrace from the living room are triple glass. All villas have private carports with pre-installation of car chargers for electric vehicles.

Location – Distances

Immortalised as one of the filming locations for ‘Zorba the Greek’, Kokkino Chorio has preserved its traditional looks and the natives’ hospitality. Within the village, one can find small shops and mini markets catering for daily necessities such as groceries. In the Plateia, the village’s main square, there is a coffee place, a kafeneion, as it is called in Greek, and a taverna. Kokkino Chorio is settled in a breathtaking geological environment: strolling northwest from the village, one will find unique caves and geological formations. On the other hand, the strangely shaped mountain crowning Kokkino Chorio is called Drapanokefala, which translates in the sickle-like head.

Following the 1964 filming, Kokkino Chorio has become a representative of Greek culture and life—and for good reasons! Alongside other areas of Apokoronas, the most northeastern district in Chania, Kokkino Chorio combines stunning views and crystal waters with convenience. You can easily reach Kokkino Chorio throughout the year, and in short distances and minute drives, you can find all that you may need!
