Description

🌅 FOR SALE – Traditional Cave-Style Home with Unlimited Sea View in Matala, Crete

In one of the most iconic and sought-after locations in Southern Crete, just 1 minute walking distance from the sea, a unique traditional property of 33 sq.m. on a 116 sq.m. plot is available for sale, offering breathtaking, unobstructed views of the famous beach and the historic caves of Matala.

Built before 1955, the house is half cave-style, carved into the natural rock, giving it authentic character, natural insulation, and a truly distinctive architectural identity. The setting is exceptional, combining privacy, history, and panoramic views of the Libyan Sea with stunning sunsets.

📐 Property Features

  • 33 sq.m. living space
  • 116 sq.m. plot
  • Two large terraces on two upper levels above the house
  • Spectacular, panoramic, and unobstructed sea views
  • Open-plan studio layout (living room – kitchen)
  • Separate small room (traditional “ondas”) used as bedroom
  • External bathroom (traditional style)
  • Authentic pre-1955 traditional residence

💼 Proven Investment Opportunity

The property has been successfully operating as a short-term rental through platforms such as Airbnb and Booking.com, receiving excellent reviews and strong demand. It represents an ideal choice both as a private holiday retreat and as a high-potential investment property.

⭐ Why This Property Stands Out

✔ Prime location in the heart of Matala

✔ Just steps from the beach

✔ Rare cave-style architectural character

✔ Two spacious terraces with magical sunset views

✔ Established rental performance

A rare opportunity to own a property with soul, history, and limitless views in one of Crete’s most legendary seaside destinations.
