When you travel to the
Greek Islands, you can't help but be swept away by such stunning natural wonders. From their majestic mountains to their scenic coasts, Mother Nature reigns supreme in these paradisiacal islands. But that doesn't mean you can't have a bit of luxury either! Swimming in the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas is all well and good, but if you prefer a private pool, you deserve just that! Fortunately, there are many amazing vacation villas throughout the Greek Island that boast such luxurious swimming holes. Surrounded by the country's amazing landscapes, you will never find such extraordinary private pools anywhere else!
Amapola Villa Agapi in Corfu
The island of
Corfu is the perfect place to rent a Greek vacation villa with a private pool. Take this gorgeous three-bedroom Amapola Villa Agapi in the island's Sivota region. At first glance, the private pool looks like your typical bean-shaped pool. You'd easily see this kind of amenity in upscale homes in big cities too. Nevertheless, it's the fact that it's so classic that makes it so covetable. Paired with an equally exquisite villa with three spacious bedrooms, a well-equipped kitchen, lush forestlands around, and beautiful seaside views, who could ever resist staying in such a place?
Caldera Blue Villa in Crete
You can't deny that this Caldera Blue Villa in
Crete has some of the most exquisite private pools, not just in Greece, but in the entire Mediterranean. Thanks to its seaside location, the place gets a lot of sun. You'd sooner turn tan a few minutes after stepping outside. Even more so when you splash around in the pool. Perched on the edge of the coastal cliff where the estate is, this luxurious private pool overlooks the Mediterranean Sea. You can enjoy the most magnificent views as you enjoy a swim or lie on the sunbed nearby.
Elounda Spa Villa Crete in Crete
Also in Crete is this three-bedroom Elounda Spa Villa. The fact that the estate has two private pools already makes it worthy to be on this list. The first one is outside and is a nice infinity pool right under the Mediterranean sun. This is the best place to get some sun and cool off while you're on the warm Greek Island. The second one, on the other one, is inside. It's more like a hot tub with all its heat and bubbles, but it's so big, it's practically another full-blown swimming pool. What more could you ask for?
Villa Rocky Retreat 2 in Mykonos
Truth be told, Greek villas with private pools are a dime a dozen. They're luxurious rentals to get when you want to enjoy a holiday in the Mediterranean, but they're not exactly unique. Only a handful of them have private pools that are a cut above the rest. One of them is this Villa Rocky Retreat 2 in
Mykonos. This estate's private pool is designed to look like an artificial beach. The sandy finish of the exterior gives a coastal feel to the pool; as if you're swimming in the
best beaches in Mykonos yourself! Pretty cool, right?
Villa Dolce Vita in Mykonos
The best part about this six-bedroom Villa Dolce Vita in Mykonos is how expansive it is! Just look at the size of the place. The estate is so well spread out that it can almost double as a mini whitewashed
town of Mykonos. Especially since this bright white villa is in a rocky part of the island. The pool is also impressively big. It's perfect for hosting a pool party with friends and family. Everyone can enjoy a swim and there will still be a lot of space. Paired with amazing seaside views, you can't go wrong with such a luxurious Greek home!
Villa Delos Sunset View in Mykonos
This villa's location contributes a lot to the luxury factor of its private pool. Villa Delos Sunset View in Mykonos is as magical as its name. Perched on a high plain by the island's seaside hills, the estate offers some of the most breathtaking views among the Greek Islands. True to its name, the best time to look at the view is during sunset. The twilight colors are reflected on the huge pool, making for a painterly sight you won't find anywhere else. One sunset is enough to have you falling in love with the place!
Armeni Ambassador Villa in Santorini
This Armeni Ambassador Villa in
Santorini is admittedly among the smaller rentals on this list. It still has two bedrooms on offer, but it's still not as expansive as many of the other Greek villas on this list. What it lacks in space, however, more than makes up for its fascinating private pool. Set inside a curvaceous corner of the villa, the pool evokes cave-like wonder that's just as magical as the other private pools on this list. It may not get a lot of sun, but the indoor quality of it gives off a mysterious and utterly romantic feel.
Zapira Residence in Santorini
Finally, there's his sunny Zapira Residence villa that's also in Santorini. The estate boasts the quintessential private pool on a Greek Island. It's big and spacious, making the pool as covetable as the villa itself. The surrounding mountainous scenery makes it a great spot for relaxation, especially when it's sunny outside. The covered deck and available sun beds ensure maximum comfort. All in all, this villa and its private pool are the perfect escape for anyone in dire need of a holiday. The location is a bit further away from
Santorini's towns, which are mostly bustling and lively.
Even though the Greek Islands boast some of the best beaches in the world, there's nothing quite as luxurious as a vacation villa with a private pool in these destinations. They're the best Mediterranean homes you'll ever get to rent!
