Villa Hermes Introduction

These neighbouring modern villas are real gems, particularly for guests seeking a peaceful retreat away from busy resorts. In unspoilt countryside approximately two kilometres from Skala, both are also in close proximity to the fabulous Mounda beach with its soft sands and sapphire seas.

Constructed from local stone, which has been left exposed in some rooms for extra warmth and character, the villas offer high quality accommodation perfect for families holidaying independently or together and who value privacy, peace and comfort. The welcoming interiors are finished in bright, contemporary shades, with the upstairs bedrooms boasting vaulted roofs for additional charm. Both villas focus on a large, inviting open-plan sitting-dining room with a plasma TV, DVD and music system, together with a swish, fully equipped kitchen. Whilst both the houses feature three bright and cheerful bedrooms, one of the double rooms in the Hermes features doors to the poolside verandah, whilst its remaining bedrooms connect to wonderful upper balconies.

When the open air calls, doors from each living area open to a delightful, furnished and roofed verandah overlooking the pool, which sits a level below. Suntrap terraces border the water and beyond them lie well-kept flowerbeds and trees, all contributing to the rural feel. Another high point of everything is a children's play area. Sunk into a separate section of the beautiful garden - not too far from the pool - it makes a perfect spot for the kids to play. Two excellent villas that make truly relaxing hideaways.
