Philea: Contemporary Loft with Ocean Views in Flamands Philea is a contemporary two-bedroom loft with a private pool and direct ocean views. This villa in Flamands focuses on indoor-outdoor living, framing the sea through floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open to a sun-drenched terrace. Philea’s design is distinctly modern and loft-like, characterized by clean lines and an emphasis on space and light. A predominantly white palette, from the walls and sofa to the kitchen finishes, creates a bright and airy backdrop. Warm wooden elements like the dining table and shelving units add natural texture, while bold blue dining chairs provide a recurring color pop. Light beige flooring flows consistently from the living area out to the terrace, enhancing the continuity. The villa’s spatial flow is its greatest asset. The living room, dining area, and kitchen exist in one continuous, unobstructed space that opens via large, retracting glass doors to the terrace and pool. Both bedrooms are accessed directly from this central living room, maintaining an efficient and open floor plan. The overall impression is of a bright, minimalist loft where crisp surfaces are softened by wood and color, all orchestrated to frame the ocean view. A glass-enclosed staircase visible from this bedroom hints at the villa’s thoughtful, multi-level design. It includes air conditioning throughout and two queen bedrooms with en-suite showers. The first bedroom is a comfortable queen room with a 5.91 by 6.56 foot bed, looking out onto the tranquil garden. It features air conditioning, a television, and an en-suite bathroom with a shower. A distinctive wooden headboard adds warmth, and the room provides direct access to the garden and pool area, allowing you to step straight into the morning sun. The second bedroom mirrors the first with an identically sized queen bed, air conditioning, a television, and a private en-suite shower bathroom. Accessible directly from the main living room, it offers a quiet, self-contained retreat. Together, both bedrooms ensure privacy and convenience for two couples or a small family. The heart of the villa is its bright, open-plan living area, which combines the lounge, dining, and kitchen. White leather sofas face a television discreetly built into white cabinetry, maintaining a clean, minimalist aesthetic. Light floods in from the wall of glass that dominates the room, ensuring the ocean vista remains the focal point. Integrated ceiling air conditioning keeps the entire loft comfortably cool, while equipment includes an Apple TV, a Dish satellite system, and a safe for valuables. Adjacent to the living room, a light wooden dining table is paired with vibrant blue chairs, one of the villa’s few but effective color accents. This area flows directly into the open kitchen, which continues the crisp white theme with its cabinetry and countertops. It is equipped for convenience with a microwave, dishwasher, blender, and toaster, alongside both a standard coffee machine and an espresso machine. A built-in white bench with a cushion adds a cozy nook to the kitchen space, helping ensure no one is isolated from the view or conversation. Your stay centers around the private swimming pool, which measures 8.2 by 14.8 feet. Set on a furnished terrace surrounded by a small, green garden, the pool area is an immediate extension of the main living space, accessible in moments through the retracting glass walls. This straightforward and private setup is for relaxed days spent outdoors, where you can lounge with the sound of the sea breeze and take a refreshing dip without needing to go far. The property is situated on the hillside in Flamands, approximately 500 meters from the renowned beach, placing you within a short walk or brief drive of the sand and surf. The airport is a 10 to 20-minute drive away, and a standard rental car is suitable for access; a 4x4 vehicle is not required. For larger groups, Philea offers valuable flexibility. It can be rented in conjunction with the neighboring villa, Storge, to create a combined four-bedroom unit—an excellent option for two families or a group of friends desiring more space while maintaining separate living areas. The villa welcomes children and even pets, offering versatility for different travelers, though events are not permitted to ensure a tranquil atmosphere for all guests.
