The cottage is a cozy and welcoming retreat deeply rooted in the history of the owners’ family. Built in 1986 by the current owner’s father with care and love, it served as the heart of family gatherings for decades. Christmas, Easter, and weekends were joyfully celebrated here, creating cherished memories filled with warmth and laughter. In 2015, the current owner fully renovated the property, breathing new life into it. A stunning pool was added, and the garden was transformed into a paradise-like space, perfect for relaxation and escape from everyday life. Today, the cottage is an ideal choice for those seeking comfort, tranquility, and natural beauty, offering a space filled with family warmth and care. The property is an elegant two-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage, perfect for family holidays or a relaxing retreat. The first bedroom features a double bed, while the second bedroom can be configured with either a double bed or two single beds, depending on your needs. The bathroom is modern, with a comfortable shower and natural light. Barbeque facilities and private parking are available. The open-plan living and kitchen area is bright, with large doors offering unobstructed sea views, while a fireplace adds warmth and ambiance for our winter guests! Outside there is the private pool, sun loungers, and a beautifully landscaped garden with olive, apricot and loquat trees, ideal for moments of relaxation.

Hello to you all!! I’m Lily ! Ten years ago I quit from my previous job, as a branch Manager at one of the leading Greek Banks to pursue a new career in tourism, a field I have come to love deeply. It was a challenge Ι embraced wholeheartedly – meeting new people and sharing my knowledge about Crete! I love many things… and some of them are Good Cretan food (I proudly consider myself a good Cook and eater), poetry (my favoutite poet is Kavafis and especially two of hip greatest poems “The City” and “The First Step” which i know by heart). I also very much love the natural beauty of my Island (its’ mountains, gorges, beaches). From the very beginning, my son, George, has been actively involved in managing our properties, offering his advice to our guests, looking after the pools and the gardens. He’s passionate about sports (he’s a water Polo player), he loves travelling around and holds a degree from the School of Economics at the University of Crete. We both looking forward to meeting you at one of our properties!

The villa is centrally located at the northern coast of Crete, just an 8-minute drive from Rethymno (3rd in population town of Crete) and 2 minutes from the nearest beach. Nestled on a hillside near the historic Byzantine village of Maroulas, it is also conveniently close to key cultural landmarks. The new Eleutherna Museum and the famous Arkadi Monastery are both just a 20-minute drive away. Its location provides easy access to Crete’s southern beaches, renowned for their exceptional natural beauty. The two airports of the island (Chaniá and Heraklion) are both one-hour drive away.
