Aurea

Light and space define Aurea, a 2-bedroom apartment that captures the marina's energy while maintaining complete privacy. This 169 m² residence includes a heated swimming pool and positions itself as a rare sweet spot—apartment convenience with resort luxury.

Offered as an off-plan property, Aurea grants the future owner the flexibility to customize finishes, materials, and selected interior layouts, ensuring the residence reflects personal style and preferences. The apartment encompasses 169 m² across a single level, created by award-winning architects who integrate biophilic design principles throughout. Every element—from natural materials to light placement—serves the primary goal of connecting residents with nature and the surrounding landscape.

The living space opens with a generous reception area flowing into a contemporary kitchen and spacious dining zone. Full-height windows frame the marina and bay views, while the principal bedroom suite includes an en-suite bathroom and direct terrace access to the pool area. A guest bedroom with en-suite facilities and additional service areas complete the accommodation.

Aurea is completed to the highest quality standards with premium brand appliances, integrated smart home technology, super-fast Wi-Fi, and professional AV systems. Interior designers have curated a selection of bespoke furnishings and fittings available for purchase, allowing owners to personalize their space.

The property prioritizes outdoor living with a heated swimming pool as the focal point. The pool transforms the apartment into a private resort environment, enabling year-round entertaining and relaxation. The outdoor area provides multiple zones for dining, lounging, and leisure, with professional landscaping and reclaimed local stone elements. Up to 2,000 m² of combined terrace and garden space creates an expansive sense of privacy within the resort context.

Aurea occupies prime positioning within the Marina Collection, affording easy access to all resort amenities: direct access to the marina promenade with Camper & Nicholsons management, two private beach clubs, wellness facilities, world-class dining, and recreational options. The nearby village of Elounda, a short drive away, preserves authentic Cretan character. The location sits 25 minutes from Heraklion Airport and approximately 30 minutes from the forthcoming Kastelli International Airport (opening 2028). The Lasithi region combines natural beauty with understated sophistication.

Secure parking with electric vehicle charging and 24-hour gated access provides safety and convenience. The property is designed to BREEAM and LEED sustainability standards, with efficient climate control systems and renewable energy integration where applicable.

As part of the branded residences collection, Aurea represents a compelling investment opportunity within one of Crete's most strategically positioned coastal developments. The Greek residency-by-investment program offers residency through real estate investment starting at €800,000 and grants visa-free access to the Schengen Area. Under professional management, the property suits personal residence, vacation use, or participation in managed rental programs designed to generate income. The resort's brand positioning, world-class infrastructure, and accessibility improvements via Kastelli Airport position the property for appreciation and sustained demand among international buyers seeking Cretan authenticity with contemporary amenities.
