Villa in Rethymno
Aelia Residence
The sun shines overhead, the sea glimmers in the distance and a relaxed holiday awaits at the island retreat of Aelia. This beautifully appointed Crete vacation rental is set in the quieter area of Rethymno, close to a town and several beaches. Its resort-worthy amenities and five bedrooms can welcome up to ten friends or family members in modern Greek style and luxury. Your stay begins with a welcome basket full of wine and local treats. It only gets sweeter from there, thanks to outdoor living areas with a pool, lounging and dining areas, a barbecue in an al-fresco kitchen, plus a hot tub, sauna and massage room for the grown-ups and a playground for the kids. Inside, the amenities range from an exercise room, pool table and playroom to a media room and Wi-Fi. Creamy stone floors and charming wrought-iron accents set a refined tone in the open-concept living and dining rooms inside Aelia. A generous sectional and sculptural dining chairs provide seating for eleven, and there’s another breakfast table in a nook adjacent to the fully equipped kitchen. The villa has three bedrooms with double beds and private en-suite bathrooms. The other two bedrooms have a double bed and two twin beds, respectively, and share a hallway bathroom. If you’re traveling with very young children, a baby cot is available upon request. Details like tufted headboards and stone-tile-clad bathrooms lend the bedrooms a look of contemporary elegance. From Aelia, you can make the 10-minute walk or take the three provided bicycles to the town of Skaleta, where you’ll find a quiet, pebbled beach perfect for a honeymoon-style stroll, as well as a few hotels where you can stop for a drink. If you’ve rented a car, it’s a short drive to Spilies Beach, Aquila Rithymna Beach, and the restaurants and nightlife of the town of Rethymno. Copyright © Luxury Retreats. All rights reserved.

Villa in Rethimno
Casa di Mare
Set yourself up for a wonderful seaside holiday at Casa di Mare. This stunning Crete vacation rental is in the village of Skaleta just outside Rethymno, close to beautiful beaches and lively towns. Its five bedrooms and range of amenities invite you and up to twelve friends or family members to spend a week or two in sun-splashed luxury. Begin your stay with a complimentary welcome basket, then settle in on one of the loungers overlooking the ocean from a spot by the infinity pool or send the kids to work off some energy on the private playground. Enjoy some friendly competition inside around the ping-pong table, relax with the help of the wine fridge and sauna, or watch the stars come out from the al-fresco jetted tub. The villa also has a TV, Wi-Fi and laundry facilities. The open-concept great room at Casa di Mare stretches nearly the length of the house, from the front terrace to the backyard. Its sitting area, dining area and fully equipped kitchen get a sleek, cool look from an all-white color scheme that’s warmed up by a wood table and breakfast bar. The villa has two bedrooms with double beds—one with an en-suite bathroom and one with a shared bathroom—and one bedroom with two twin beds and an en-suite bathroom. The other two bedrooms have a double bed and two twin beds, respectively, and share a bathroom with en-suite access from both rooms. Casa di Mare is located in the village of Skaleta, which has a sandy beach ideal for honeymoon-style strolls, a choice of cafes and bars, and a bus stop that makes it easy to access other towns nearby. It’s also a short drive from a grocery store, bakery and more in the towns of Sfakaki and Stavromenos, more shopping and dining in Rethymno, and the historic Monastery of Arkadi. Kindly note that the beach profile changes seasonally due to the change in wave energy experienced during summer and winter months. Copyright © Luxury Retreats. All rights reserved.

Villa in Panormos
5.0 out of 5 average rating, 5 reviewsThalassa Residence
Think about the warmth of the sun and the cool of the sea breeze—and nothing else—at Thalassa Residence. This newly built Crete vacation rental is designed for relaxation, whether that means napping in the sun, making memories with friends and family, or a little bit of both. Its six bedrooms can accommodate groups of up to twelve, while a location near the town of Panormos is convenient to shopping and dining. You’ll want to spend most of your holiday on the villa’s stunning terrace, which features a swimming pool, hot tub, tempting row of loungers, sitting area, barbecue and pergola-covered dining area, all with views of the sea. Inside, however, you’ll also find luxury amenities from a games room and sauna to a private exercise room and elevator. Sliding glass doors that run nearly from wall to wall make the villa’s L-shaped great room feel like an extension of the terrace. Understated furniture and stone floors look chic (and feel cool underfoot) in the living and dining areas, while a sleek corner fireplace will add warmth if you want it. The kitchen, on the other side of the L, is fully equipped and has an inviting breakfast bar. Each of the six bedrooms at Thalassa Residence has a king bed, en-suite bathroom and TV, and several of the suites open to a balcony or terrace as well. Like the main living areas, the bedrooms are bright and stylish, with refined details like tufted headboards or graceful side chairs, plus spa-worthy bathrooms splashed with stone tile. The villa’s location in the Rethymno area is a 10-minute walk from Panormos Beach—a quieter stretch of sand perfect for a honeymoon-style stroll or splashing with the kids—and an 11-minute walk from the town of Panormos, where you can take care of shopping, explore the cobbled streets or sample the local tavernas.
