Traditional Cretan Villa, Located Close To The Beach And Main Sights

Villa Athena is located in Kato Gouves, inside a big olive grove and 10 minutes away from the beach. The villa consists of a two-floor traditional villa of 150 sqm and an independent stone apartment (which is rented separately), with a spacious outdoor area and a magnificent garden, full of colors, fragrances, and local flora. The combination of stone and wood, with the surrounding olive grove, creates a tranquil and comfortable environment The first floor of the villa consists of two bedrooms, each with two beds. On the ground floor, there is a very big living room, dining room, and kitchen, together with the bathroom and fireplace. On the next floor, the are two more bedrooms, each with two beds and with their own bathrooms. All rooms have a closet, drawers and an LCD TV. The kitchen has a coffee machine, dishwasher and all the necessary amenities of a modern kitchen The house has a laundry machine, a fireplace and of course wireless internet connection. The stone apartment has a double bed, its own bathroom, and kitchen. Furthermore, it has a fireplace and traditional furniture and decoration. The outdoors of the property is absolutely amazing. A well-preserved garden, with a barbecue facility and a traditional stone oven to prepare delicious meals. A lot of tables with colorful chairs and big sun umbrellas with sunbeds are there to help you relax under the Cretan sun. All this setting is surrounded by our family's century-old olive grove, that gives the property a traditional Cretan touch. After all, Cretan olive oil is considered to be the best extra virgin olive oil in the world. The area is open and spacious, perfect for a family with children, in order for the kids to play and be close to nature's environment. Finally, the view towards the sea, the olive grove and the hills around is relaxing, while a walk towards the sea is 10 minutes away. The parking space of the property can easily fit up to five cars.

Un séjour inoubliable
Cet emplacement est magnifique. Nous avons séjourné 13 nuits en famille et avec des amis et avons adoré la villa. Nous avons découvert des plages extraordinaires, des restos excellents et des gens formidables. Les plages sont à proximité (besoin d’une voiture). Nous avons aussi profité de l’emplacement pour se faire de très bons soupers. Ce fut une expérience très emballante. Merci encore ! Je recommande fortement

Friendly
It wasn’t quite new but very acceptable. Rooms were big enough. Shower downstairs a little bit small. Space around the villa was perfect. Pity there was no pool. We all enjoyed our stay in the villa. Perfect assistance of the owner and the house keeper. Very friendly and easy towards clients.

wunderbar
Sehr schönes und gepflegtes Objekt. Kurzer Weg zum Strand, an dem wir zu dieser Jahreszeit praktisch alleine waren. Etwas Fluglärm (Einflugschneise), der aber nicht sehr laut und deshalb auch nicht störend ist. Ansonsten sehr ruhige Lage. Besonders gut: Sehr viele Sitz- und Liegemöglichkeiten rund ums Haus, immer wahlweise Sonne oder Schatten. Ausstattung der Küche könnte etwas besser sein (Besteck, Weingläser).
