Luxurious stone villa in Crete amongst eight of Airbnb’s most wish-listed ‘unique homes’

·

A luxurious villa in the small village of Kalivani, Chania in Crete has been placed on Airbnb’s list of eight all-time most wish-listed ‘unique homes’ around the world. 

The list of one-of-a-kind properties include a ‘magical treehouse’ in the Santa Cruz Mountains in California, a grand 15th century castle in the west of Ireland and a rainforest treehouse in Costa Rica. 

The unique apartment in Crete is housed in a natural cave that at one time was used as a family home and then later used as an agricultural storage space. 

Following a renovation in 2007, the stone villa was turned into a luxurious studio with a balcony that looks over the stunning Kissamos Bay. 

Guests can enjoy this beautiful villa that sleeps three and is priced from roughly $300 a night.
