As a country, Greece, one could say, comes as close to paradise as might be possible. There are some reasons to consider Greece very, very special. It is well known that the country was the cradle of European civilization. In Greece, all the big ideas first came into existence: Democracy, for once. Philosophy and science were also invented in Greece. At a time when most other Europeans were still living on trees (well, almost), Greece was already highly developed. The consequences of this can be seen until today: There is such a multitude of ancient monuments in Greece and this has a huge impact on the modern country's atmosphere.
Greece's other big plus is its natural beauty. Of course, Greece is a Mediterranean country and mostly mountainous, and this quite naturally means wonderful landscapes for any place lucky enough to be located there. But Greece is especially blessed by the gods: Its coastline is infinitely more ragged than that of comparable countries and there are many islands of various sizes, so in Greece there are more beaches, more cliffs, more natural ports than you would expect from a country with that size.
Greece has over eleven million inhabitants. Despite the omnipresence of its ancient past in today's Greece, it is now a very modern country. Now for some decades, the country has been enjoying political stability (although recently there were some anarchist riots in Athens, the capital, which caused a lot of upheaval).
The Retreat is a privately owned villa situated on the West coast on the island of Crete.
This exclusive property is the perfect investment and could also marketed as the perfect vacation property, as it can sleep 10 people, and has its own private swimming pool and child safety pool set amongst well maintained, landscaped gardens on a plot of 696 sqm. [ read more » ]
