3 Bedroom Villa in Megalo Metochi, Rethimno

An oasis serenely tucked away from the tourist hordes!

Villa Metochi is the ultimate holiday home for modern-day vacationers searching for full privacy and total home-like comfort, along with easy and rapid access to downtown amenities and to the nearest sandy beaches. This gorgeous villa stands in an enviable cliff-side setting overlooking the Sea of Crete and the endless olive groves, and it’s reachable within a 6-minute drive from the town of Rethymnon.

Villa Metochi is a single-storey building consisting of a roomy main house (90 sqm) with 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and a fully equipped studio (40sqm) with 2 beds, 1 bathroom, and can comfortably accommodate 6 -7 persons. This property is ideal for extended families with kids (play ground, baby amenities, toys, books, etc.), elders (no stairs), sports lovers (table tennis, fitness accessories, jogging), couples (idyllic setting, romantic sunsets, privacy) or groups of friends (big outdoor spaces, BBQ facilities, board games). The excellent location, the homey atmosphere, the feeling of independence and the intense close-to-nature sensation will ensure a fantastic vacation experience.

Depending on your needs or the number of guests, there are 2 booking options:
1) If you are up to 4 guests, you can book the main house only at our standard rate.
2) If you are up to 6 or just 4 but need extra space and privacy, you can book both the main house and the studio. In this case, you have to pay our standard nightly rate plus 80 euros/night as a supplement for the studio.

If you are 4 and wish to rent both houses, please set the total number of guests at "6" when reserving. Otherwise, you will automatically book the main house only.

Outdoor
After entering the villa’s gate you will surprisingly find yourselves into an amazing 2.500 sqm exterior space with palm trees, pines, fruit trees, lawn and all kind of ornamental and aromatic plants. This beautiful ambience is completed by a stunning private swimming pool (9m long & 1.40m deep). By the pool, there is a lovely gazebo and a lawn area where you can lounge and sunbathe while enjoying a cold, refreshing beverage. The veranda of the house with its dining table for 6 is the perfect spot for having plentiful meals with family and friends or feeling the rejuvenating night dew whilst enjoying a summer cocktail. The villa also features another outdoor sitting area with BBQ facilities and a big table for 6. Between the BBQ area and the swimming pool there is a play area for kids (swingset and slide) and a hammock for revitalizing naps under the shade of pines. For the more energetic guests, there is an outdoor table tennis offering additional enjoyment. Depending on the season, our guests may have the change to taste fresh fruits from our trees (apricots, pears, oranges, loquats, mandarins, lemons, etc).

Summary: Amazing place! On top of a hill with great view, big and clean swimming pool. The main house has 2 bedroom and a big living room and the suite is bigger than it looks and great for a couple to stay. Marina was very kind and even arranged dinner on our arrival.
