Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

Parents, you’ll love this villa. There’s a playground for little ones to tire themselves out in – as well as the pool – and there are two separate lounges so you can dedicate one to toys and kids’ movies, and keep one for yourselves. Bright and cheerful, this villa boasts charming touches like a vegetable patch that you’re welcome to pick from. It’s out in the Cretan countryside so it’s peaceful and pretty, but you’ll need a car to get around. You can drive to the sandy beaches and hustle and bustle of Rethymnon in ten minutes though, so you’re not completely out in the sticks.

About Rethymnon

Nestled between bustling Heraklion and Chania, Rethymnon has somehow remained relatively untouched by widespread tourism. The world’s loss, however, is your gain, as this overlooked region is home to a treasure trove of natural wonders, from the sandy shores of the Libyan Sea to the sloping hills that form mighty Mount Psiloritis.
