Crete is a life-changing island. It’s a place in which you feel you belong and in which you’ll always return.

Set on the living area of “Sfakaki”, the villa's location is great and giving you the opportunity to visit all the well-known beaches and sightseeing spots of Rethymno with your car or bus, taking only 5 to 20 minutes maximum.

In a walking distance you can find the long sandy beach of Rethymno and many traditional taverns and shops around the villa.

About 1.5 km away there is the centre of Stavromenos village where you can find almost everything!
Also in a distance of 5 km (less than 5 min by car), you reach Platanias, a well-known tourist resort that is in fact a suburb of Rethymno. Platanias has a great variety of choices including shops, supermarkets, restaurants, junk food and many bars and night-clubs.

We would love to give you directions and information about all the places that you should visit based on your interests.

Finally we recommend you to have a car but it is not necessary in our villa. Everything is reachable on foot and also there is a bus stop to Rethymno city 400 meters away from the villa.
