Villa Melitta is a noble house built by George Hatzidakis. He used all his research into traditional architecture and put all his love into the house. The project was finished in 2001. In the middle of a 5000 sq.m fruit grove, rises a small palace, reminding us of a Venetian villa. Melitta is situated just outside of the village of Melidoni, in a quiet environment with a broad and beautiful view of the Tallaia mountains and Psiloritis. There is a wide variety of trees in its huge garden – orange, olive, pear, apple, and peach trees – offering fruits throughout the year. There are also flowers and organically grown vegetables in the backyard of the house. The house covers 220 M2 and there are 4 bedrooms – 2 on the ground floor and two on the upper floor – which can accommodate 8 persons, or even 10 if you use the two sofa beds of the sitting room. It has a tasteful interior and there are two verandas on the upper floor, offering you a choice of the view you prefer.
Further Details for The Villa In Rethymno,Crete: The nearest airport of Heraklion (HER) is located 50 km east of the villa, while the port of Rethymnon lies at a distance of 29 km. The airport of Chania (CHQ) is another 90km to the west, that is a 1 hour 30 min drive. A car rental can be arranged to pick you up at the airport and drive you to your villa.
As the owners cooperate with a car rental company you have the opportunity to hire cars in unique prices!!!
The nearest beach of Bali lies at a distance of 6 km, it is sandy and offers many opportunities for water sports. There are also quiet locations for guests to enjoy the beach without being annoyed by nearby jet-skiers or water-skiers. The sandy beach of Panormo offers you a second choice for swimming near the area. There are plenty of beautiful beaches in the area also!
There are some interesting excursions you can go in Kastri, Melidoni and the outskirts. The distances and routes are shown on the map in the web page.
The garden area is 5000 sq.m. Inside the garden there is a kiosk, BBQ area, beautiful plants, fruit trees and many corners to relax. There is also a 50 M2 adult swimming pool and a 12 M2 children’s swimming pool.
The discreet stone wall surrounding the gardens and the cool shade of the house offer privacy and, you will feel that, time passes by at your own pace, offering you a sense of childish happiness.

We have just returned from the beautiful Villa Melitta in Meladoni. Our party included 3 generations, the youngest being nearly 2. We have all had the most enjoyable time and the Villa and surroundings far exceeded our expectations. There was ample room for us all and the Villa was very well equipped. The photos on the web site just can't do justice to the magnificent backdrop of the mountains of Crete and the garden of the Villa, including an Orange grove and Vines laden with grapes. The Village of Meladoni is just a step away and very friendly. We all enjoyed some lovely local meals there in a comfortable rural environment. Thank you Antonis for your help and hospitality - Maybe we can visit again in the future. I hope so.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 7/8

We had great time in Malidoni. 10 days in Melita Villa. The villa is just as it looks in the pictures (very nice). Garden is huge, pool is big and deep (important for out teenagers). House is fully equipped and very well maintained. Easily enough for 2 families with 8 children total. Owner is very responsive. Small problems (Internet connection) were fixed very quickly. Location is very good. in a nice traditional village (which gives the right atmosphere), close to very nice beach - Bali, and not to far from Chania (the best city in Crete).Did you find this review helpful?

A FABULOUS FAMILY RETREAT
A FABULOUS FAMILY RETREAT

Many months ago I asked my mother-in-law, age 87, if there was some place in the world she would like my husband and myself to take her. An idea was born, and we soon began to plan a trip to Crete with my mother-in-law, her three sons and two daughters-in-law. We found Villa Melitta on-line and the pictures and descriptions of the place enticed us to reserve a week in June for our family retreat. The villa more than lived up to our expectations. The rooms were all comfortable, clean, and well appointed. Each bedroom had its own bathroom, two en-suite, two not. The kitchen was well equipped. But what was most enchanting was the outside...the grounds, the gardens, the orchards, and the pool. We spent many relaxing hours reading by the pool. The owners were incredibly gracious and helpful, explaining about the local fruit trees and herbs, and even giving us a cooking lesson for one of the greens often used as a side dish in Greek cooking. My mother-in-law exclaimed many times during our stay that it was the best week of her entire life. Enough said!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 8/11
