Villa Argiris is built for absolute privacy with a relaxing atmosphere, amidst all the calming colours of the Cretan landscape. At the edge of a 4 acre olive grove and overlooking the sea, you simply won’t get enough of the majestic vistas that pour through the windows, each morning you awake.
Irresistibly spacious and enchantingly rustic in design, the Argiris Villa is ideal for holidaying privately, in a exclusive, elevated location at the foot of a hill. With captivating sea views from almost every vantage point, here you can completely let go of all your worries.
Located in the seaside village of Stavromenos, about 13 km east of Rethymno, is our Argiris Villa, our second largest and perhaps most exclusive. The premium location guarantees full privacy while it also allows for exceptional scenics even from the living room windows, making this Villa the ultimate holiday safe haven. Watch incredible sunrises and sunsets from the comfort of the open plan living room, while you can completely unwind around the pool, taking in the sea horizon before you.
Rose bushes complete the picture of perfection surrounding Argiris Villa, with a fantastic outdoor area split across two levels, one of which boasts a sunlit swimming pool, and the other a shaded, pergola that houses a grill BBQ and wood-fired oven where guests can enjoy leisurely moments around a large dining table. Indoors, the Villa is partly designed in stone and is lavished with some interesting pieces of decor that are nicely blended into the walls.
All four bedrooms have their own distinct character, and each has a private WC with shower. Suitable for families or groups of friends, this Villa promises a kind of harmonious autonomy that may be extra thing you have been looking for. Simply calming...
1 of the bedrooms is a double and 3 of the bed rooms are twin singles.
