CRETE, GREECE

The only local colour you are likely to find in cosmopolitan Elounda Bay is the deep blue of the sea, and the Elounda Gulf Villas are no exception. A gated compound of 14 whitewashed villas, the resort has all the facilities and ambience of a luxury five-star hotel (it is a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World). Popular with honeymooners looking for the privacy of a villa with the benefits of room service, the villas are decorated with sofas covered in Italian fabrics, a scattering of antiques, and trompe-l'oeil ceilings. The glass-fronted breakfast rooms, with 360-degree views, open on to pool terraces littered with loungers; the huge bathrooms all have giant marble Jacuzzis. Breakfast is served by your butler. The Executive and Presidential Spa Villas have cliff-hanging infinity pools, a gym and sauna; but the four-bedroom Royal Villa, with two Jacuzzis and a steam room, provides the ultimate in opulence.
