Set within an acre of Cretan olive groves near Panormo, in the Rethymno countryside, Idunu is a single-storey villa that markets itself on serene seclusion, a private sanctuary turned toward the valley rather than the sea. A long, near-infinity pool faces the groves and distant mountains, with a louvred bioclimatic pergola shading the outdoor kitchen and table. There, LA MER armchairs on slim pedestal bases pull up for open-air meals, while SURF sunloungers stretch out along the pool through the afternoon, and indoors TRINITA chairs ring the dining table. It is pastoral and sun-drenched, a rustic-modern retreat that keeps the Cretan countryside close on every side.
