Sohora Estate – A Tranquil Luxury Retreat in the Heart of Crete

Nestled in the serene, picturesque village of Xirosterni, Sohora Estate is a private luxury retreat comprising two elegant sister villas — Villa Logari and Villa Riza. Together, they offer a unique blend of modern comfort, traditional charm, and breathtaking views of both the sea and the majestic White Mountains. Whether you're traveling with family or friends, Sohora Estate provides an idyllic escape for up to 14 guests seeking privacy, relaxation, and the authentic beauty of Crete.

Villa Logari is a newly built villa that accommodates up to 6 guests across three beautifully appointed bedrooms. With panoramic views, refined design, and a focus on comfort, it offers the perfect balance of seclusion and style. The villa features a fully equipped kitchen, elegant living spaces, and three bedrooms—two with double beds and one with twin beds—all fitted with top-quality Coco-Mat mattresses and their own bathrooms. A rooftop garden with a Jacuzzi and seating area invites guests to unwind while gazing at the endless sea and surrounding landscape.

Villa Riza, the larger of the two, can host up to 8 guests in four spacious bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom. Like Logari, it offers a fully equipped kitchen, indoor and outdoor living areas, and luxurious Coco-Mat bedding to ensure a restful night’s sleep. Its rooftop Jacuzzi and sitting area provide sweeping views, perfect for sunrise coffees or sunset cocktails.

The outdoor spaces of Sohora Estate are designed for pure enjoyment. Both villas boast private pools, sunbeds, and relaxing water beds. Villa Riza offers the additional option of pool heating (for an extra fee), ensuring comfort even during cooler days. A large BBQ area with a wood-fired oven serves as a social hub for outdoor dining, whether you're cooking yourself or inviting the villa’s private chef to prepare a traditional Cretan meal. For families, children will delight in the garden play areas, with trampolines, a playground, and table tennis, ensuring entertainment for all ages.

Located just five minutes from the sandy beach of Almyrida, and close to the beautiful stretches of Georgioupolis and Kalyves, Sohora Estate provides easy access to charming seaside villages and local taverns serving delicious, home-cooked cuisine. The traditional village of Vamos is also nearby, offering further cultural and culinary discoveries. In the heart of Xirosterni itself, you’ll find a cozy café serving food and a mini market open daily until 10 p.m., making daily needs effortlessly accessible.

Whether you're enjoying the peaceful mountain breeze, soaking in sea views from a Jacuzzi, or sharing unforgettable moments by the pool with loved ones, Sohora Estate is your private gateway to the very best of Crete—authentic, luxurious, and entirely your own.
