The Villa

These two newly built detached villas are delightfully and artistically furnished while maintaining a traditional Cretan style and have views to the sea and the mountain backdrop.

Location

The villas are set in quiet surroundings, about 1 km from the centre of the village, on the outskirts of Frangokastello. They are located in 10,000 sq m grounds, well set apart from each other, arranged on a small incline. The nearest sandy/shingle beach is 300 metres away.

On the south coast of Crete, a two hour drive over the mountains from Chania and 60 km from Rethymno, is the strange sight of a 14th century fort near the beach, which gives the village of scattered houses its name. Frangokastello is strung out alongside long flat fine sandy beaches, wonderful for safe swimming and ideal for children. The village is on a narrow plain, beneath a mountain backdrop. There are a number of tavernas, cafes, shops catering for most needs, and some specialist fish restaurants, which are held in high regard by the locals.

The general area is noted for attractive gorges that delight keen walkers, and not far away is Chora Sfakion from where you can take a boat along the south coast to the west.

Accommodation

Each 2-storey villa is suitable for 4-5 people, comprising, on the ground floor, a bedroom with double bed, a living room/kitchenette, a sofa bed and an open fireplace, as well as a bathroom/WC and a sun terrace with sea views. Upstairs there is a further bedroom with twin beds and a shower/WC. Each has a large balcony with splendid views of the sea, the mountains and the old Venetian fort.
