Villa Yammas – Where Cretan Stone Meets a Mediterranean Soul
Welcome to Villa Yammas, a beautifully restored stone villa tucked away in the peaceful village of Dramia, near Chania. With five thoughtfully styled bedrooms, a private pool, lush gardens, and boho-chic interiors, this home offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. Whether you're planning a family holiday, a design-focused retreat, or simply need space to slow down, this villa is your soulful escape in Crete.
Tucked away in the peaceful village of Dramia, Apokoronas, Villa Yammas is more than a holiday home. It’s a story carved in stone, curated in detail, and wrapped in light.
This five-bedroom, five-bathroom villa is the result of a deep design vision — where the rugged beauty of Crete meets the serenity of countryside charm and the warmth of the Eastern Mediterranean. A home crafted not just with skill, but with care and heart.
A Home That Breathes Design
Step inside and a wide hallway welcomes you — a soft prelude to what unfolds. Natural wood beams, handcrafted lights, and stone details evoke a quiet strength. The atmosphere is grounded yet uplifting. Earthy but refined.
To the left, the heart of the house opens: a stunning open-plan living and kitchen area anchored by a traditional Cretan stone arch.
The kitchen, inspired by British farmhouse aesthetics, features cream cabinetry, natural wood countertops, and large windows that pour light across the space.
A glass-top dining table brings everyone together, while the comfy living area, under rustic beams, invites moments of calm, barefoot comfort and slow conversation.
Here, design isn’t decoration — it’s emotion, function, and memory.
Bedrooms That Unfold Like Chapters
To the right of the hallway, five distinct bedrooms unfold like chapters, each with its own personality and charm:
Bedroom 1: Features twin beds comfortably joined as one, accented with warm wooden tones and soft lighting. Its elegant en-suite bathroom boasts a soft, minimal design that perfectly complements the room's calm spirit.
Bedroom 2: A quiet hideaway with a comfortable double bed. This is the only room without a private bathroom, making it perfect as a peaceful reading nook or for guest overflow, with easy access to the central main bathroom.
Bedroom 3: Offers an earthy, boho-rustic feel with a double bed. Its private en-suite bathroom features artisanal tiles and a touch of vintage luxury, creating a uniquely aesthetic experience.
Bedroom 4 (Master): Set at the corridor's end, this spacious master suite boasts a large bed and direct access to the pool area. A full wall of light floods the space, giving you that rare feeling of floating effortlessly between inside and out. Its impressive en-suite bathroom feels like a boutique hotel spa.
Bedroom 5: A peaceful suite with a king-size bed, wide windows facing the inner courtyard, and a chic en-suite bathroom that’s truly eye-catching.
All bedrooms include windows looking out onto the tranquil rear garden, ensuring ample natural light and a sense of calm.
Your Outdoor “Blue Lagoon”
Step into the garden, and time begins to stretch.
The 40 sqm private pool is a natural retreat framed by a living wall of lush, hardy plants that wrap the space in vibrant green. It doesn't just feel private; it feels like your very own "Blue Lagoon" – a place where the world dissolves into sun, breeze, and blissful silence, in perfect harmony with nature.
Around the pool, you'll find custom-built wooden gazebos and comfortable sun loungers, perfect for soaking up the Cretan sun.
A shaded dining pergola with a fully equipped BBQ counter sets the scene for long summer meals.
The Zen-inspired garden is a haven of peace, featuring white and black stones, vibrant Mediterranean shrubs and a charming fountain bringing peace to the senses.
A rooftop terrace with the handmade gazebos and the private living room promises panoramic views of the sea, mountains, and olive groves — the perfect sunset hideaway.
