Nelisa is a luxury private villa conceived as a sanctuary of light, calm, and refined comfort.
Nestled on the hills of Bali, Crete, overlooking the breathtaking gulf, the villa enjoys one of the most privileged viewpoints on the island. Natural light shapes the rhythm of the villa, flowing freely through large openings and outdoor spaces. Here, luxury is not defined by excess, but by space, silence, quality, and care. Villa Nelisa invites guests to slow down, to live in tune with the sun and the sea, and to experience Crete in a way that feels both intimate and broad.
The villa accommodates 12 guests across six elegant en suite bedrooms, each featuring walk-in showers and carefully selected finishes. Modern minimalism blends with warm natural textures, creating an atmosphere that is both sophisticated and welcoming.
Villa Nelisa spans 240 square meters of refined interior space (in a plot of 4.300sq.m.), complemented by rich outdoor areas designed to maximize sea views, privacy, and comfort. It is ideal for families, groups of friends, or discerning travelers seeking a premium private villa experience in Crete.
The heart of Nelisa is its open-plan living area, where the living room, dining room, and kitchen flow effortlessly together. Designed for relaxation and social connection, this space offers uninterrupted sea views and direct access to shaded outdoor terraces. The dining area comfortably seats eight guests, complemented by a kitchen island for four, making it ideal for shared meals, celebrations, or private chef experiences. The living room features plush seating, a calm color palette, and advanced entertainment systems, including a 65’’ 4K Smart TV, DVD player, and PlayStation. A guest WC is also available on this level.
A dedicated fitness room allows guests to maintain their wellness routine in privacy, equipped with a multifunction gym machine, treadmill, spin bike and more.
Each of the six bedrooms is designed as a private haven of rest and comfort. King-size beds, premium linens, calming tones, and thoughtful lighting ensure restorative sleep, while sea views and natural light enhance the sense of serenity.
The outdoor areas define the Villa Nelisa experience.
The 45 sq.m. infinity pool with integrated jacuzzi overlooks the sea, creating a striking visual connection with the horizon. The BBQ & outdoor dining area is ideal for sunset gatherings and al fresco dining, featuring:
• Gas BBQ grill with four burners
• Outdoor kitchen sink & BBQ utensils
• Dining table for 14 under pergola
• 65’’ 4K Smart TV & guest WC
Private parking for up to five vehicles is available on site.
Villa Nelisa is not just a destination, it is an experience that stays with you. Rooted in mythology, inspired by light, and shaped by the natural beauty of Crete, it offers a refined yet heartfelt approach to luxury living.
