A Hidden Gem Above the Sea: Rock Bay Villas, Crete

Tucked away in the tranquil area of Agia Pelagia, Rock Bay Villas is one of those places that truly takes your breath away — especially when viewed from above. With my drone, I had the pleasure of capturing the incredible beauty of this private retreat, and the aerial perspective reveals just how unique and peaceful this location really is.

From the sky, the villa blends harmoniously with the rocky coastline and the deep blue of the Cretan Sea. Surrounded by unspoiled nature and framed by dramatic cliffs, the property offers absolute privacy and a sense of serenity that's hard to find elsewhere. One of its most captivating features is the private beach, hidden away in a quiet bay — perfect for a peaceful swim or a romantic sunset moment.

The architecture of the villa respects the local traditions, with natural stone and earthy tones that match the landscape, creating an authentic atmosphere that feels both luxurious and grounded. From above, everything comes together: the villa, the sea, the cliffs, and the Cretan light — painting a picture of perfect harmony.

As a videographer and drone pilot based in Crete, I’m always looking for locations like this — where nature, architecture, and emotion meet in one frame. Rock Bay Villas is undoubtedly one of the most cinematic spots I’ve had the chance to film.

If you're looking to capture your villa, hotel, or property in its full glory — from the ground and the air — I’d be happy to help you bring it to life through film and photography.
