Villa Thalassodentro: Where the Aegean Whisper Meets Timeless Luxury

 Villa Thalassodentro: Where the Aegean Whisper Meets Timeless Luxury

 A Name with Soul

“Thalassodentro” (from Greek thalassa — “sea” — and dentro — “tree”) is a poetic ode to its essence: a sanctuary where the Aegean’s azure embrace dances with ancient, rooted grandeur.

Nestled among Elounda’s elite resorts, this villa is a Minoan-inspired marvel, clad in ochre stone and terracotta, where every archway whispers tales of Crete’s mythic past.

Created by an artist, for artists in the soul, it defies traditional Greek architecture, embracing a world of curves, colors, and creativity. This is not the kind of house you’re accustomed to seeing—It’s a once-in-a-lifetime encounter with art, space, and vision.

Where every corner tells a story, every detail sparks imagination. 

 Architecture: A Dialogue with Nature

Design & Layout:

It was built in 1976 by French "grand Prize of Rome »  famous architect Olivier Winckler.

837 sqm of Timeless Grandeur: A two-level symphony of stone, with a 300 sqm upper floor and 500 sqm lower floor connected by a sweeping teak staircase.

Minoan Spirit, Modern Grace: Arched doorways, handcrafted terracotta, and a mesmerizing indoor Botticelli bathtub handmade by the architect, that crowns the sunlit salon, merging the music of water with salt-kissed breezes.

Spaces of Wonder:

Upper Level: A living room anchored by a roaring fireplace, a wooden library for whispered secrets, three bedrooms, one of them a master suite with a private bathroom, massage alcove, and a semicircular staircase leading to- the semicircular staircase leads to the master bathroom and the Little Rock terrace.

Lower Level: Three serene bedrooms, each framing endless sea views, and terraces that dissolve into the horizon.

 Gardens of Myth and Majesty

Privately Owned Coastline: Just 30 meters from your door, a hidden beach nestled in volcanic rocks invites moonlit swims and solitary dawns.

The Ancient Carob Tree: A 300-year-old guardian standing sentinel over 9,300 sqm of gardens — a living testament to time, where jasmine, citrus, and olive groves weave a tapestry of scent and shade.

The Atelier: A whimsical terracotta-and-bamboo guesthouse, once an artist’s refuge, now a sanctuary for creativity or quiet contemplation.

Freshwater Pool & Alfresco Living: Glide into the turquoise pool with the flooring tiles of the pool remind you the labyrinth of Minos, dine under a vine-laced pergola, or rinse off in the outdoor shower after hiking Cretan trails or sailing the Gulf of Mirabello.

 Life at Thalassodentro

Legacy of Gatherings: Host grand feasts on the wraparound terrace, where the sky and sea become your ceiling, or unwind by the fireplace with aged wine and starlight.

For the Discerning:

10 Bedrooms, 5 Bathrooms: A haven for dynasties, luxury retreats, or transformative escapes.

Elounda at Your Doorstep: Stroll to Michelin-starred restaurants, yacht-filled harbors, and the island’s most exclusive resorts.

Golden Visa Eligible: A gateway to Greek residency for global citizens.

A Realm Beyond Time

“Thalassodentro is not owned — it is stewarded. Here, the ghosts of Minoan artisans linger in the stone, the carob tree shares its ancient wisdom, and the sea sings lullabies only you can hear.”
