Callisto and Io are fully handicapped-accessible. For cooler days, 2 wood-burning fireplaces (Callisto & Europa) and state-of-the-art central heating keeps you warm and cozy.
On the ground floor, in front of the infinity pool overlooking the breaking waves, Callisto features a bright, comfortable living room equipped with a fireplace and corner sofa, an open-plan kitchen, and a glass dining table. The large, shaded verandas at the front and side of the villa allow for spectacular views of the sea, sky and moon. They are furnished with an outside eating area and comfy furniture to enjoy the sea and pool views. Callisto has 4 bedrooms, two of which form a separate wing with a shared handicapped-accessible bathroom and two have ensuite bathrooms. The master bedroom (king-sized bed) has double doors leading to the front verandas, swimming pool and adjoining whirlpool. You need move only a few steps from your bed to find yourself engulfed in the smell of sea, jasmine, and other local aromatic plants.
The ground (pool) floor is complete with the Ganymede studio, with its private entrance off the pool terrace to the west. The studio has a private living room and a small bedroom with a double bed.

Through a covered patio east of Callisto, a separate entrance leads to an elevator and indoor stairway to bring the guest to the penthouse floor: Europa and Io. A private door opens into Europa, and the visitor is immediately astounded by the panoramic views of the sea, sky, and rocky beach front. For most summer days, the sea is calm and limitless and provides you with an overwhelming feeling of tranquility and peace. On the rare days where winds blow from the south or southwest, you see large waves crash onto the rocky beach below, eliciting feelings of wild beauty, passion and adventure. The open floor plan of Europa allows harmonious movement between all main living spaces - the living room, belvedere, dining room, and kitchen- and the large balcony. The lovely terrace features comfortable seating and a hot tub that looks out on magnificent panoramic views of the sea, sunset, village and surrounding landscape. Even during the winter months, the spectacular panoramic views can be enjoyed from the indoors belvedere, which has no walls – only glass.
