I Need a Hero

Holiday Rental Description

A stone's throw from the sandy shores of Platanes Beach, which stretches for miles along the shores of Rethymno, this spectacular three-bedroom villa has been designed from the ground up to cater to your every need.

As part of a collection of six similar holiday retreats, this particular villa is perfect for those looking to stay as close to the beach as possible, occupying the first of three rows as you stroll away from the sea – ideal for a multigenerational family or those with young children who aren't able to walk far.

The interior is cool, calm and casual, perfectly in keeping with your enviable coastal surroundings. A multipurpose open living area provides more than enough room for six people to socialise. However, effortless access to the poolside terrace combined with Crete's fabulous climate creates a central space that feels much larger.

For ultimate flexibility, each of the three bedrooms can be configured as a twin or double. Your host can swap out the mattresses depending on your preference. All the rooms are decked out in soothing earth tones that create a calming ambience to help you unwind before bed. However, the main en-suite bedroom scoops top prize for its expansive private terrace with the best sea-view seats in the house.

When you're not reclining on a sun lounger by your private pool or swimming in the azure waters of the Aegean, why not visit the picturesque Venetian harbours of Rethymno or Chania along the coast? Or, you can discover the island's history in its atmospheric capital city, Heraklion.
