Catrine - Seven Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 15 | Villa in Spetses

Finished to an extremely high standard inside and out, and just a 10-to-15 minute walk from the buzzing centre of Spetses Town, with its character-filled streets, its tavernas, cafés and boutiques, and its beaches, Catrine is perfect for those who enjoy being close to the heart of life while at the same time having a gorgeous, serene villa with pool to retreat to and unwind in. The best of both worlds.
Inside: designed, built and finished to exacting standards in 2024, Catrine is laid out over three floors.
The main entrance leads in from a beautifully presented terrace to a generously spacious, welcoming and luminous reception room. Impeccably furnished and finished, and full of character and vivacity, this space sets the aesthetic blueprint for the property as a whole: its sandy floors, white walls and ceilings (these latter with slender, classically Spetsian ribbing), banks of windows, golden jute floor mats, and colourful artwork are all leitmotifs that will reappear throughout. There’s a sense of order and purity but also a little playfulness.
To the left of the front door is a large wooden dining table with designer chairs, while straight on is a commodious, L-shaped sofa. On either side of a decorative fireplace, French doors allow the space to flow out onto a shaded terrace while also bringing in the views of Spetses Town and the sea.
An opening to the right of the front doors leads to a corridor, off which are the stairs and lift to the lower and upper floors, a guest loo, and the well-equipped, stylish kitchen, which comes with more of those sea views and access to the shaded terrace outside the living area.
At the end of the corridor is the first bedroom, a spacious sea-view double with en-suite shower room.
The upper floor is home to two exceedingly well-appointed bedrooms accessed from a spacious central landing:
• the first is a suite with a double bedroom, a private terrace with views across Spetses Town and out to sea, a large, bright sitting area with day bed and desk, and an en-suite shower room
• the second, a double, has more of those glorious views, its own private terraces, a walk-through dressing area, and a luxuriously finished en-suite shower room partly clad in grey marble
The remaining accommodation at Catrine is located on the lower floor, and comprises four bright bedrooms, all of which flow out onto floral terraces with steps up to the main pool terrace:
• a double with a large en-suite shower room
• a double-twin with a sitting area and an en-suite shower room
• a second double bedroom with en-suite shower room
• a children’s room with a single bed, bunk beds, and an en-suite shower room
The lower floor is also home to an auxiliary kitchen, and all three floors are connected by an elevator.
Outside: the quality, attention to detail and meticulous design that typify Catrine’s interiors is very much in evidence in its multi-faceted al fresco areas. On entering the main gate, leaving the buzz of Spetses Town behind, one is struck by the sense of order, seclusion and tranquillity. Tall white walls provide a blank canvas for climbing greenery and flowering plants, ornamental grasses sway gently in the sea breeze, and, when dusk falls, an well-designed system of illumination transforms the borders and the terraces into a scene of pure romantic enchantment.
Heading straight on, across a series of mosaics in black and white pebbles, a flight of steps takes you up to a shaded portico and the front door.
Turning left, one is embraced by the fabulous social hub of the al fresco areas, an extensive L-shaped terrace from where the views pan out over the rooftops of Spetses Town and across the cobalt waters of the Aegean to the Peloponnese.
First, sitting under a voluminous cane-topped pergola, is a convivial dining area, a superbly equipped outdoor kitchen with a pair of electric barbecues and a fridge, a bar, and a comfortably furnished sitting area.
Running at right angles to this area, meanwhile, is the graceful, turquoise pool, a line of quality sun loungers, and another shady sitting area.
A few steps down from the pool area, on either side of the house, are a pair of shady terraces, accessed from the lower floor bedrooms.
The open-plan living area and kitchen on the main floor open out onto a long, shaded terrace that’s furnished with tables and chairs. Here you'll be able to enjoy leisurely breakfasts while looking out to sea, sip on a mid-morning coffee, or read a book.
Last but not least, the two bedrooms on the upper floor have their own well-furnished private terraces from where the views are arguably at their best.
Spetses is a car-free island (apart from a few taxis, which can book out quickly in the summer season, and service vehicles). Most people move around by bicycle, scooter, quad bike, boat, donkeys and sea taxis. If you wish to rent bikes, scooters or quad bikes, please contact us in advance, as numbers are limited.
