Contemporary, minimal and bright, this set of two gorgeous villas is perfect for special events and large family holidays. The outdoor architecture is sleek and minimal to perfectly highlight the heavenly sunset views you'll enjoy each evening. Whip up fabulous feasts in the fully-equipped kitcen and dine alfresco out by the pool to enjoy every meal under the sun. Stay active in the luxurious private pool and stay productive with some remote work at the dining table, the large windows helping you catch some sun even from indoors. This home places you an easy drive away from the nearest tavernas and beach bars, where you can enjoy a drink on the coast and romantic walks down golden stretches of beaches. Rethymno Old Town is a fifteen-minute drive away, where you can dig into local cuisine and visit historical sites like the Venetian Fortezza Castle, and make memories to last a lifetime.
